Miter Cuts

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Crosscutting" means cutting across the grain of a natural wood workpiece. In other man-made materials, such as MDF or plywood, crosscutting means cutting across the width of the workpiece.

To make a crosscut using the miter gauge:

1.DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2.Ensure that the blade guard and splitter or riving knife is installed.

3.Move the rip fence aside and position the miter gauge, adjusted to 90°, in a miter slot.

4.Adjust the blade height so the teeth protrude approximately 14" above the workpiece.

5.Slide the miter gauge near the blade and adjust the workpiece so the blade will cut on the waste side of the line.

6.Plug in the tablesaw, turn it ON, and allow it to reach full speed.

7.Hold the workpiece firmly against the face of the miter gauge (Figure 44) and ease it through the blade until the workpiece is com- pletely past the saw blade.

Figure 44. Typical crosscutting operation.

Turn OFF the saw and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the cut-off piece. Failure to follow this warn- ing could result in serious personal injury

A miter is an angled crosscut. Miters are usually cut in the same manner as crosscuts, using the miter gauge and a predetermined mark on the workpiece.

To perform a miter cut:

1.DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2.Ensure that the blade guard and splitter or riving knife is installed.

3.Determine the angle of your cut. If the angle needs to be very precise, use a protractor to set the miter gauge to the blade.

4.Place the face of the miter gauge against the edge of the workpiece and place the bar across the face of the workpiece. Use the bar as a guide to mark your cut as shown in Figure 45.

Figure 45. Example of marking miter line.

5.Place the miter gauge back into the slot and hold the workpiece firm against the miter gauge body. Slide the miter gauge near the blade and adjust the workpiece so the blade will cut on the waste side of the line.

6.Proceed to make the cut in the same manner as described in the Crosscutting instruc- tions.
