Making a Diagonal Cut

Diagonal cuts are also referred to as “long point-to-long

point cuts”.

• Using a marker or grease pencil, mark the area to be cut

on material.

• Adjust miter guide to 45° using angle scale and tighten

securely with lock knob.

• Place the material on the table and firmly against the

sliding table fence.

• Make sure the material is clear of the cutting wheel before

turning on the saw.

• Turn the on/off switch to the ON position.

• Let the cutting wheel build up to full speed and wait for

the wheel to get wet before moving the material into the

wheel.

• Hold the material firmly against the sliding table fence and

feed the material into the cutting wheel.

• When the cut is made, turn the saw OFF. Wait for the

cutting wheel to come to a complete stop before removing

any part of the material.

Making a Miter Cut

Miter cuts are used for cutting outside and inside corners

on material, decorative chair rail, and base moulding with

the material at any angle to the wheel other than 90°. Miter

cuts tend to “creep” during cutting. This can be controlled

by holding the workpiece securely against the miter guide.

• Using a marker or grease pencil, mark the area to be cut

on material.

• Set the miter guide to the desired setting, lock in place,

and tighten the lock knob.

• Place the material on the table and firmly against the miter

guide and fence.

• Make sure the material is clear of cutting wheel before

turning on the saw.

• Turn the on/off switch to ON position.

• Let the cutting wheel build up to full speed and wait for

the wheel to get wet before moving the material into the

wheel.

• Hold the material firmly against the miter guide and feed

the material into cutting wheel.

• When the cut is made, turn the saw OFF. Wait for the

cutting wheel to come to a complete stop before removing

any part of the material.
