® Owner’s Manual Please read this owner’s manual before use and keep it at hand for reference. safety Important safety instructions for using the INCRA Miter5000 Before using the INCRA Miter5000, read and follow all of the instructions and safety information in this owner's manual. When using the INCRA Miter5000 in conjunction with any other tool, first read and follow all instructions and safety information in that tool’s owner’s manual. Never let the saw blade come in contact with the aluminum or steel components of the INCRA Miter5000. Before making any cut, always make sure that the Miter5000’s Right Sled Base is locked securely in the right-hand miter slot. When using the INCRA Miter5000, always keep your hands clear of the saw blade and the line of cut. Always turn off the power and make sure that the saw blade comes to a complete stop before changing the setting of any part of the INCRA Miter5000. Always securely tighten the large black clamping knob before starting any cut. Wear safety glasses, hearing protection, and follow all normal shop safety practices. After making any adjustments to the miter angle or fence position of your INCRA Miter5000, always verify safe clearance between the blade and fence before turning on the saw. After making any adjustments to the fence position on the INCRA Miter5000, always make sure that the four socket head screws on the fence mounting bracket and the outboard fence lock are securely tightened. When using the INCRA Flip Shop Stop to position a piece for a cut, always hold or otherwise clamp the board between the stop and the blade.

Operation - Changing angle settings

1

The dual actuator design of the INCRA Miter5000 provides two levels of adjustment. The front actuator is used for coarse adjustments (5°), while the rear actuator is used for fine adjustments (1⁄2°). For most mitering work, you’ll have the left-hand tooth of the rear actuator engaged at 0° while you make angle changes using only the front actuator. When using the rear actuator for fine adjustments, you are simply adding or subtracting from the coarse adjustment setting.
