TO MITER CUT / CROSS CUT
See Figures 34 - 35.
A cross cut is made by cutting across the grain of the
workpiece. A straight cross cut is made with the miter
table set at the 0° position. Miter cross cuts are made with
the miter table set at some angle other than zero.
Make sure the slide lock knob is tightened securely.
Pull out the lock pin and lift saw arm to its full height.
Loosen the miter lock handle.
[]
Lift the miter lock plate to disengage.
Rotate the miter table until the pointer aligns with the
desired angle on the miter scale.
Release the miter lock plate.
NOTE: You can quickly locate 0°, 15 °, 22.5 °, 31.6 °, and
45 ° left or right by releasing the lock plate as you rotate
the control arm. The lock plate will seat itself in one of
the positive stop notches, located in the base.
[] Tighten the miter lock handle securely.
[] 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
a board is placed against the fence, the board could col-
lapse on the blade at the end of the cut, jamming the blade.
[] When cutting long pieces of lumber or molding, sup-
port the opposite end of the stock with a roller stand
or with a work surface level with the saw table. See
Figure 41.

[] Align cutting line on the workpiece with the edge of
blade.
[] Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it
against the fence or use the work clamp or a C-clamp
to secure the workpiece.
[] Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cut-
ting operation just to make sure that no problems will
occur when the cut is made.
