Setup FAMiLiARiZATION: Place the Miter Saw on a flat, strong and level surface, and examine it to become familiar with the terminology used to describe its var ious parts. (See Figures 1 and 2.) UNLOCKING THE PIVOT ARM: Your saw was shipped from the factory with the pivot arm in the locked down position This position is used to facilitate packaging and for storage.
An alternate mounting nnethod that will enhance the s a w s portability is to mount the saw on a piece of 1 /2" or thicker plywood. The saw can then be taken to remote locations and the ply wood clamped in place with a couple of large "C” damps. 4. The miter scale is graduated in incre ments of one degree {1 °). The exam pie shown in Figure 7 is 35^, Miter Table and Miter Scale The miter table and miter scale permit you to set accurate miters up to 45° left or right.
Cutting Tips Lower Blade Guard Miter Clamp Knob WEAR EYE PROTECTION. The smoothness of any cut de pends on a number of variables. Things like materia! being cut. blade type, blade sharpness and rate of cut all combine to affect the quality of the cut. When cutting framing lumber or other types of lumber where cut smooth ness IS not a point of concern, high cut ting rate coupled with a sharp general purpose blade will produce satisfactory results.
6. Remove the old blade and insiall the new one taking care to orient the two blade washers carefully, as shown in Figure 13. piiillliiiililiiiK The example in Figure A is a joint made by using the bevel adjustment to bevel the edges of the boards (at 45° each) to form a 90° miter corner. For this operation, set the bevel post adjustment at 45° and the miter table adjustment at 0°. Position the wood with the broad flat side against the table and the narrow edge against the fence.
Cutting Crown Molding Your Compound Miter Saw is probably better suited to the difficult task of cut ting crown molding than any other tool made. In order to fit properly, crown mold ing must be compound mitered with extreme accuracy (see Figure 17). The two surfaces on a piece of crown molding that fit flat against the ceiling and the wail of a room are at angles that, when added together, equal exactly 90"^.
