TO USE THE MITER GAUGE
See Figure 26.
The miter gauge provides greater accuracy in angled cuts.
For very close tolerances, test cuts are recommended.
There are two miter gauge channels, one on either side
of the blade. When making a 90° cross cut, you can use
either miter gauge channel. When making a beveled cross
cut (the blade tilted in relation to the table) the miter gauge
should be located in the slot on the right so that the blade
is tilted away from the miter gauge and your hands.
The miter gauge can be turned 60° to the right or left.
[] Loosen the lock knob.
[] With the miter gauge in the miter gauge slot, rotate the
gauge until the desired angle is reached on the scale.
[] Retighten the lock knob.
