A miter saw is a type of power tool typically used for woodworking. It consists of a vertical, circular cutting blade that is mounted on a pivoting arm. When the trigger button is held down, the saw blade rotates at a rapid speed, allowing the user to pivot the arm and direct the blade down through the target material. It is capable of cutting cleanly through wood, plastic, composites, and some metals.

• Wear safety glasses or goggles, or a face shield (with safety glasses or goggles).

• If work is dusty, use a dust extraction system, and/or respirator or dust mask.

• Wear appropriate hearing protection.

• Attach the saw firmly on a workbench or other rigid frame and operate saw at waist height. The saw can also be taken to remote locations by mounting it on a piece of plywood 13 mm (1/2 in.) or thicker. This plywood (and saw) must be clamped to a waist high work surface on the job site with large "C" clamps.

• Make sure any adjustments are secure before making a cut. Only make adjustments when the power is off and the machine is not moving.

• Keep one hand on the trigger switch and handle and use the other hand to hold the stock against the fence.

• Keep hands out of the path of the blade.

• Keep guards in place and in working order.

• Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.

• Use a crosscut or combination blade.

• Ensure that the blade rotates in the correct direction.

• Ensure that the blade and arbor collars are secure and clean. Recessed sides of collars should be against blade.

• Keep blade tight, clean, sharp and properly set so that it cuts freely and easily.

• Only cut one work piece at a time

• Allow motor to reach full speed before cutting

• Wait for the saw to stop moving before removing the work.

• Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
