BEVEL CUTTING (Fig. 15)
A bevel cut is a cut made across
the grain of the workpiece with the
blade at an angle to the workpiece.
A straight bevel cut is made
with the miter table set in the 0°
position and the saw arm set at a
bevel angle between 0° and 45°.
To Bevel Cut with Your Miter Saw
1. Unplug the saw.
WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting
causing serious injury.
2. Make sure the miter table is at 0° and locked, and check that the miter
table lock lever is down and secured in position.
NOTE: Before you rotate the miter table on the miter lock lever, make sure
the detent locking knob has been released by lifting it up.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, ALWAYS tighten the miter
lock lever securely BEFORE making a cut. Failure to do so could result in
movement of the control arm or miter table while making a cut.
1. Release the saw arm by pulling out the locking pin
2. To make a bevel cut, lift up to unlock the bevel lock knob (Fig. 1a), and pull
the 0° stop bolt out.
3. Tilt the saw arm to the desired bevel angle as shown on the bevel scale.
The blade can be positioned at any angle, from a 90° straight cut (0° on the
scale) to a 48° left and right bevel (Fig. 15).
WARNING: Tighten the bevel lock knob to secure the saw arm in its posi-
tion.
6. 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 (Fig. 19 and 20).
7. Align your pencil line in the middle of the dual “red laser lines”.
8. Use the hold down clamp to secure workpiece against saw table and fence
9. When cutting long workpieces, pull out extension wing for extra support
for the long workpieces. (Fig. 14a)
