21 ENGLISHSlide (push) cutting (cutting wideworkpieces)► Fig.44: 1. Two clamping screws which secure theslide pole 2. Holder assemblyLoosen two clamp screws which secure the slidepoles counterclockwise so that the carriage can slidefreely. Secure the workpiece with the vise. Pull thecarriage toward you fully. Switch on the tool withoutthe blade making any contact and wait until the bladeattains full speed. Press down the handle and PUSHTHE CARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE ANDTHROUGH THE WORKPIECE. When the cut is com-pleted, switch off the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADEHAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP before returningthe blade to its fully elevated position.CAUTION:• Whenever performing the slide cut, FIRSTPULL THE CARRIAGE TOWARD YOU FULLYand press down the handle to the fully low-ered position, then PUSH THE CARRIAGETOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE. NEVER STARTTHE CUT WITH THE CARRIAGE NOT FULLYPULLED TOWARD YOU. If you perform theslide cut without pulling the carriage fully or ifyou perform the slide cut toward your direction,the blade may kickback unexpectedly with thepotential to cause serious PERSONAL INJURY.• Never perform the slide cut with the handlelocked in the lowered position by pressing thestopper pin.• Never loosen the clamp screw which securesthe carriage while the blade is rotating. This maycause serious injury.Miter cuttingRefer to the previously covered “Adjusting the miterangle”.Bevel cut► Fig.45: 1. Holder assemblyLoosen the lever and tilt the saw blade to set the bevelangle (Refer to the previously covered “Adjusting thebevel angle”). Be sure to retighten the lever firmly tosecure the selected bevel angle safely. Secure theworkpiece with a vise. Make sure the carriage is pulledall the way back toward the operator. Switch on thetool without the blade making any contact and waituntil the blade attains full speed. Then gently lowerthe handle to the fully lowered position while applyingpressure in parallel with the blade and PUSH THECARRIAGE TOWARD THE GUIDE FENCE TO CUTTHE WORKPIECE. When the cut is completed, switchoff the tool and WAIT UNTIL THE BLADE HAS COMETO A COMPLETE STOP before returning the blade toits fully elevated position.CAUTION:• Always be sure that the blade will move down tobevel direction during a bevel cut. Keep handsout of path of saw blade.• During a bevel cut, it may create a conditionwhereby the piece cut off will come to restagainst the side of the blade. If the blade israised while the blade is still rotating, this piecemay be caught by the blade, causing fragmentsto be scattered which is dangerous. The bladeshould be raised ONLY after the blade hascome to a complete stop.• When pressing the handle down, apply pressureparallel to the blade. If the pressure is not par-allel to the blade during a cut, the angle of theblade might be shifted and the precision of thecut will be impaired.• (Only for European countries) always set thesub-fence outside when performing left bevelcuts.Compound cuttingCompound cutting is the process in which a bevelangle is made at the same time in which a miter angleis being cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can beperformed at the angle shown in the table.Miter angleLeft and Right 45Right 50Right 55Right 57Bevel angleLeft 0 - 45Left 0 - 40Left 0 - 30Left 0 - 25When performing compound cutting, refer to “Presscutting”, “Slide cutting”, “Miter cutting” and “Bevel cut”explanations.Cutting crown and cove moldingsCrown and cove moldings can be cut on a compoundmiter saw with the moldings laid flat on the turn base.► Fig.46: 1. 52/38° type crown molding 2. 45° typecrown molding 3. 45° type cove moldingThere are two common types of crown moldings andone type of cove moldings; 52/38° wall angle crownmolding, 45° wall angle crown molding and 45° wallangle cove molding.
