CROSSCUTS (Fig 33 and Fig 34)
A crosscut is a cut made across the
grain of the workpiece. A straight
crosscut is a cut made with the miter
table set in the 0° position.
Miter crosscuts are made with the miter
table set at an angle, left or right that
is not 0°.
To Crosscut With the Miter Saw

saw could result in accidental starting,
causing serious injury.

Firmly hold the base of the saw
arm and use it to rotate the miter
table, while also holding the saw
base steady.
Quickly locate 0°, 15°, 22.5 °, 31.6 °
and 45 °, left or right, by the stops
or clicks at these angle settings.
When the miter angle is set, tighten the miter-lock knob.
Pull out the locking pin to release the saw arm.
Place the workpiece flat on the miter table with one edge securely against
the fence. If the board is warped, place the convex side against the fence. If
the concave edge of the board is against the fence, the board could collapse
on the blade at the end of the cut and jam the blade.
Plug the saw into a power supply.
10. Turn on the Laser with the Laser ON/OFF switch.
11. Align the "red laser line" to touch the right edge of the cut line marked on
the workpiece.
12. Use the hold-down clamp to secure the workpiece against the saw table
and fence.
