SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Arbor

The shaft on which a blade or cutting tool is mounted.

Bevel Cut

A cutting operation made with the blade at any angle other than 90 ° to the miter table.

Crosscut

A cutting or shaping operation made across the grain of the workpiece.

Compound Miter Cut

A compound miter cut is a cut made using a miter angle and a bevel angle at the same time. Freehand

Performing a cut without using a fence, miter gage, fixture, work clamp, or other proper device to keep the workpiece from twisting or moving during the cut. Gum

A sticky, sap based residue from wood products. Miter Cut

A cutting operation made with the blade at any angle other than 90 ° to the fence.

Resin

A sticky, sap base substance that has hardened.

Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)

The number of turns completed by a spinning object in one minute.

Saw Blade Path

The area over, under, behind, or in front of the blade. As it applies to the workpiece, that area which will be, or has been, cut by the blade.

Set

The distance that the tip of the sawblade tooth is bent (or set) outward from the face of the blade.

Throw-Back

Throwing of a workpiece in a manner similar to a kickback. Usually associated with a cause other than the kerf closing, such as a workpiece not being against the fence, being dropped into the blade, or being placed inadvertently in contact with the blade.

Through Sawing

Any cutting operation where the blade extends completely through the thickness of the workpiece.

Workpiece

The item on which the cutting operation is being done. The surfaces of a workpiece are commonly referred to as faces, ends, and edges.

Zero Clearance Throat Plate

A plastic throat plate inserted in the miter table that allows for blade clearance. When you make your first cut with your compound miter saw, the saw blade cuts a slot through the throat plate the exact width of the blade. This provides for a zero clearance kerf that minimizes workpiece tear-out.

No Hands Zone

The area between the marked lines on the left and right side of the miter table base. This zone is

identified by no hands zone labels placed inside the marked lines on the miter table base.
