1. RAISE THE SAW ARM
Before operation, raise the saw arm from the lower posi-
tion. See section titled, "Raising/Lowering the Saw Arm" on
page 12.
2. SET UP THE CUT ANGLE & DEPTH
The miter saw can be set up to create cuts at different an-
gles by adjusting the angle of the miter table and the saw
bevel angle. There are four types of cuts you can create: a
cross cut, a miter cut, a bevel cut, and a compound cut.
See Fig. 13 to understand each type of cut. If you do not
want to cut all the way through your workpiece, adjust the
cutting depth. See note below.
To adjust the bevel angle:
see section titled, "Adjusting the
Bevel Angle" on page 12.
To adjust the miter angle:
see
section titled, "Adjusting the Miter Angle" on page 13.
To
adjust the cutting depth:
see section titled, "Adjusting the
Cutting Depth" on page 16.
2. SET UP SLIDING FUNCTION
For materials with a width under 2-1/2 inches (63 mm):
the sliding function isn’t necessary. See section titled, "Set-
ting Up Arm Slide" on page 12 to disable the sliding func-
tion.
For materials with a width over 2-1/2 inches (63 mm):
the
saw arm will need to slide to cut through the workpiece.
See section titled, "Setting Up Arm Slide" on page 12 to en-
