What cut should you never do on a miter saw?
Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except the workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the revolving blade can be thrown with high speed at the operator. Do not feed workpiece into the blade or cut “freehand” in any way.
Are miter saw blades reverse threaded?
Yes, it’s a reverse thread (I spoke with a few tool repair shops).
Why does my Mitre saw splinter wood?
When a miter saw blade plunges down through the wood, any gap between the wood and the throatplate underneath will leave the weak surface fibers unsupported. That’s a recipe for splintering on the bottom face.
Which side of miter saw goes up?
Cut Wide Boards With the Best Side Down Splinters and tear-outs occur where the blade breaks through the wood. That’s the bottom side when plunge-cutting narrow boards, so it’s best to cut narrow boards with the “show” side face up.
Why wont my miter saw lift up?
Depending on the model, it may require twisting, but typically is only an inward, outward movement of the pin. The blade should lift up automatically when the pin is released. The guard should cover the blade as it lifts. If it doesn’t, it’s likely dirty or stuck and should be cleaned to move freely with the blade.
Where is the lock pin on a Craftsman miter saw?
Lock pins are typically located on the right side of the hinging mechanism, the side opposite the blade. To lock and unlock the pin, the blade must be in the farthest down position. The pin will not unlock, even though the saw is down.
How do you raise the blade on a Craftsman miter saw?
To lock and unlock the pin, the blade must be in the farthest down position. The pin will not unlock, even though the saw is down. You must push the saw down as far as it will go, then pull the pin out to release the blade.
