Compound Cuts

• A compound cut is a cut requiring both a miter
setting and a bevel setting.
• A compound cut can be made as either a chop
cut or a slide cut depending on the width of the
workpiece.
• 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 sliding fence and work supports when
making compound cuts that are mitered to the
left (see Sliding Base/Fence Extension on pages
22-23). Select the desired miter and bevel angles
(Figure 30). (See Miter Cut and Bevel Cut on page
25.)
2. Properly position the workpiece. Make sure the
workpiece is clamped firmly against the table and
the fence.
Use clamping positions that do not
! WARNING
interfere with operation. Before
switching on, lower head assembly to make sure
clamp clears guard and head assembly.
