What's a Compound Cut – Saw features
A "compound cut" is a single cross-cut made with
l
the saw blade preset at two angles combining a
miter angle (relative to the vertical fence) with a
bevel angle (relative to the horizontal table).
Miter angles will be with the table rotated away
l
from 0° and within this saw's range from 52° left to
60° right.
A bevel angle is when the blade is tilted away from
l
0°. This saw's range is from 47° left to 47° right.
NOTE: If the bevel detent pin automatically
engages at 31.6° and prevents tilting the saw to
another angle, simply pull it to the front and rotate
its cross pin 1/4 turn so it rests in the disengaged
position. If pin is sticking in, tilt and rock saw head
side to side as you pull on it.
A compound cut can be made as a chop cut or a
l
slide cut.
Cutting crown molding flat on the table requires
l
compound cuts. See Cutting Crown Molding
section on page 45.
