Then tighten the knob.
4. Secure the workpiece with a vise.
5. Pull the carriage toward you fully.
6. Switch on the tool without the blade making any
contact and wait until the blade attains full speed.
7. Gently lower the handle to the fully lowered posi-
tion while applying pressure in parallel with the blade
and push the carriage toward the guide fence to cut
the workpiece.
8. When the cut is completed, switch off the tool and
wait until the blade has come to a complete stop
before returning the blade to its fully elevated position.
Compound cutting
Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel
angle is made at the same time in which a miter angle
is being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be
performed at the angle shown in the table.
Miter angle Bevel angle
Left and Right 0° - 45° Left and Right 0° - 45°
When performing compound cutting, refer to "Press cutting",
"Slide (push) cutting", "Miter cutting" and "Bevel cut" explanations
Cutting crown and cove moldings
Crown and cove moldings can be cut on a compound miter
saw with the moldings laid at on the turn base.
There are two common types of crown moldings and one type
of cove moldings; 52/38° wall angle crown molding, 45° wall
angle crown molding and 45° wall angle cove molding.

Always use several pieces for test cuts to check the
saw angles.
When cutting crown and cove moldings, set the bevel
angle and miter angle as indicated in the table (A) and
position the moldings on the top surface of the saw
base as indicated in the table (B).
