TILTING CUTTINGHEAD FOR BEVEL CUTTING
CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
IMPORTANT: MOVE THE SLIDING FENCE TO THE LEFT TO PROVIDE CLEARANCE FOR THE BLADE
AND GUARD. THE DEGREE OF TILT DETERMINES HOW FAR TO MOVE THE SLIDING FENCE. REFER
TO THE SECTION “ADJUSTING SLIDING FENCE.”
1. The cuttinghead of your compound miter saw can be tilted to cut any bevel angle from a 90 degree straight
cut-off to a 45 degree left bevel angle by loosening bevel lock handle (A) Fig. 18, tilting cuttinghead (B) to the
desired angle, and tightening lock handle (A).
2. Positive stops are provided to rapidly position the saw blade at 90 and 45 degrees to the table. Refer to the
section of this manual titled “Adjusting 90 and 45 degree bevel positive stops.” The bevel angle of the
cutting arm is determined by the position of the pointer (C) Fig. 19, on scale (D).
3. In addition, a marked indicator is provided on the bevel scale (33.9 degrees) for cutting crown moulding.
Refer to the “CUTTING CROWN MOULDING” section of this manual.
ADJUSTING SLIDING FENCE
The high sliding fence Fig. 20, provides support for extra large workpieces used with your saw and should always
be set as close as possible to the saw blade. When miter cutting (blade set 90 degrees to the table and at an angle
to the right or left), the fence should be set all the way toward the blade, (Fig. 20). When bevel cutting, however
(blade tilted at an angle to the table), the fence (A) Fig. 21, should be moved away from the blade to allow for
proper clearance for the saw blade and guard, (Fig. 21). To accomplish this movement, loosen the lock handle (B),
and slide the fence (A) to the desired location. Tighten the lock handle (B).
NOTE: Lock handle (B) is spring-loaded and can be repositioned. Pull up on handle to reposition it on the
serrated nut located underneath handle.
