OPERATION OF MITER ARM
Your miter saw will cut any angle from 0 ° to 47.1/2"
left and right. To operate miter arm release lock lever
(A) on underside of miter arm (B) by turning
counterclockwise. See Figure 13, Depress detent
lever (C), move miter arm to desired angle, and
tighten lock lever (A). Your miter saw also has
positive stops at 0 ° and 45 ° left and right. When any
of these cuts are desired release lock lever (A) on
underside of miter arm (B). Release detent lever (C)
and move miter arm to desired angle, The spring
loaded positive stop engages In the Indent
automatically,
OPERATION OF BEVEL POST
Your miter saw Is also capable of making bevel cuts
from 45' to 90 °. To operate bevel post, loosen lock
screw (A) as shown in Fig, 14 and pivot saw arm until
the pointer (B) is on desired bevel ang_e. Tighten lock
screw securely. Note: While adjusting bevel post,
care should be taken to hold saw arm and saw head
securely to prevent sudden fall to the 45 ° position
and possibly damaging your saw,

TABLE EXTENSION AND SECURING WORKPIECE
Caution: Due to Inherent dangers from using this type of saw, especially during miter and compound
angle cutting, It Is strongly recommended that table extensions and material clamps be used to avoid
possible serious injury to operator.
To construct a,table extension it Is suggested that a
1/2" thick x 9 wide x 48' long straight, solid board
be used, See Fig. 15. The bottom surface of the
board must be relieved 118" in the area of the turn.
table to permit rotation of the miter arm. Attach the
board to the miter saw table, according to the I1-
tustration shown, using six (6) 1/4.20 x 1" long
counter-sunk flat head machine screws, All screw
heads must be recessed below the top surface of the
board. After assembly of the board to the table, make
a clearance cut into the board with the miter arm
and/or bevel post at the setting to be used. NOTE:
The usable height of the fence as well as the
thickness cutting capacity of saw will be reduced by
the thickness of the table extension board, CAU-
TION: Screw heads must clear blade in all cutting
positions of miter arm and bevel post.
Materials should always be positioned with their
widest side against the table extension.
