Making a Compound Miter Cut
A compound miter cut is a cut made using a miter angle and a bevel angle at the same time. This
type of cut is used to make picture frames, cut molding, make boxes with sloping sides, and for
certain roof framing cuts.
Follow procedure for
“Making a Miter Cut” and “Making a Bevel Cut”
on pages 13 and 14.
CAUTION:
Care should always be taken when making compound miter setups due to the
interaction of the two angle settings. It may take several settings to obtain the desired
cut. The first angle setting should be checked after setting the second angle, since
adjusting the second angle affects the first.
Using Depth Stop
1.
(SEE FIGURE 16)
For making a kerfing or rabbet
cut which does not cut through the work piece,
use the depth stop screw (1) in combination with
the depth stop lever (2), to control the depth
of the cut.
2. To limit blade assembly travel, slide the depth
stop lever (2) out (away from blade), then turn
the depth stop screw (1) to adjust the depth of
cut . Rotate the screw:
Clockwise
= the shallower cut will be
Counter Clockwise = the deeper cut will be
3. After the desired cut has been made, return the
depth stop lever to its normal position.
WARNING:
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.
Never apply lubricant to the blade while
the miter saw is running.
Cutting Aluminum
NOTE:
Aluminum extrusions such as
used for making aluminum screens
and storm windows can easily be cut
with your compound miter saw. Be sure
to apply a stick wax (similar to Johnson’s
stick wax #140) to the blade before
cutting any aluminum stock. This stick
wax is available at most industrial mill
supply houses. The stick wax provides
proper lubrication and keeps chips from
adhering to the blade.
1.
(SEE FIGURES 17 & 18)
When cutting
aluminum extrusions, or other sections
that can be cut with a saw blade and
are within the capacity of the machine,
position the material so the blade is
cutting through the smallest cross
section.
NOTE:
The wrong way to cut aluminum
angles is illustrated in Figure 18.
