to the blade. If the pressure is not parallel to the blade
during a cut, the angle of the blade might be shifted and

Compound cutting is the process in which a bevel angle
is made at the same time in which a miter angle is being
cut on a workpiece. Compound cutting can be performed
at angle shown in the table.
When performing compound cutting, refer to "Press cut-
ting", "Miter cutting" and "Bevel cut" explanations.

miter saw with the moldings laid flat on the turn base.
