Across
- 4. automatically covers the blade when at rest and retracts during a cut. Protects against accidental contact with the spinning blade, helps prevent hand injuries.
- 5. primary interface for both controlling the motor and maneuvering the cutting head. It serves three main purposes: power control, physical guidance, and safety.
- 7. connects to a dust collector to actively remove sawdust from the blade, improving air quality and reducing clean-up.
- 8. allows the saw head to move forward and backward, significantly increasing the cutting width capacity.
- 10. enables precise cutting angles by rotating the saw base (miter) left or right, typically from to or cut angles often with preset for common angles.
Down
- 1. Located at the front of the saw, turn knob or counterclockwise to unlock, adjust to the desired angle, and tighten clockwise to secure. Compress lock release to adjust angle.
- 2. tilts the blade vertically (0° to 45°+ left or right) allowing for complex cuts with multiple angles.
- 3. maintains material stability and alignment, ensuring accurate, safe, and clean cuts on long or heavy stock.
- 6. makes precise, fast, and repeatable cross, angled and beveled cuts in wood, plastic, or metal.
- 9. acts as a crucial support and guide for the workpiece, ensuring it stays secure and square (90 degrees) to the blade for accurate, repeatable cuts.
