TILTING CUTTINGHEAD FOR BEVEL

CUTTING

IMPORTANT: MOVE THE SLIDING FENCE TO THE

LEFT TO PROVIDE CLEARANCE FOR THE

BLADE AND GUARD. THE DEGREES OF TILT

DETERMINES HOW FAR TO MOVE THE SLIDING

FENCE. REFER TO THE SECTION “ADJUSTING

SLIDING FENCE.”

1. DISCONNECT THE MACHINE

FROM THE POWER SOURCE.

2. The cuttinghead of your compound miter saw can be

tilted to cut any bevel angle from a 90° straight cut-

off to a 45° left bevel angle. Loosen bevel lock handle

(A) Fig. 18, tilt cuttinghead (B) to the desired angle,

and tighten lock handle (A).

3. Positive stops are provided to rapidly position the

saw blade at 90° and 45° to the table. Refer to the

section of this manual titled “ADJUSTING 90° AND

45° BEVEL POSITIVE STOPS.” The bevel angle of

the cutting arm is determined by the position of the

pointer (C) Fig. 19, on scale (D).

4. In addition, a marked indicator (M) is provided on the

bevel scale (33.9°) 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 (set blade 90° 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

reposition the fence, 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.
