A miter saw is a saw used to make accurate crosscuts and miters in a workpiece by pulling a large backsaw or a mounted circular saw blade down onto a board in a quick motion. It is commonly used for cutting of molding, trim and small boards.
The workpiece is held against a fence, which provides a precise cutting angle between the plane of the blade and the plane of the longest workpiece edge. In standard position, this angle is fixed at 90°
It's possible to move the base in precise one-degree incremental changes or also provide "stops" that allow the miter index to be quickly set to common angles (such as 15°, 22.5°, 30°, and 45°)
Safety
- Always use safety glasses
- Respect the safety distance limit between the hand and the blade as indicated on the machine
- If the piece of wood to cut is small, use another machine is this is one is not suitable for small parts.
- Let the blade come to a complete stop at the end of each cut before lifting it.
How to use
- Push the wood against the metal bar.
- Mark a line with pencil on the material where you want to cut.
- Ensure the blade fall on the side of the line and not along the center.
- Start cutting the material from the back (closest side to your body), go down and continue forward.
- You can adjust two different angles. the angle of the base or the angle of the blade
- You can use the laser light to check for the line of cut.
