Compound Cuts

• A "compound cut" is a cross-cut made with the
blade both at a a miter angle and at a bevel angle.
• Because it may take several tries to obtain the
desired compound angle, perform test cuts on
scrap material before making your cut.
follow these instructions for
making your compound cut:
1. Extend the base extensions and fence. (See
Sliding Fences and Base Extensions on page
20 & 21.)
2. Properly position workpiece. Make sure work-
piece is clamped firmly against the table or the
fence(Figure 38).
Use clamping position that

3. Set miter and bevel angles according to the in-
structions on page 24 and 25 for miter and
bevel cuts.
4. Follow the procedures for chop cut.
5. Wait until blade comes to a complete stop be-
