FEATURES BEVEL LOCK KNOB The bevel lock knob securely locks your compound miter saw at desired bevel angles. CROWN MOLDING STOP The crown molding stop makes positioning crown molding vertically against the fence easier. ELECTRIC BRAKE An electric brake has been provided to quickly stop blade rotation after the switch is released. LASER GUIDE For more accurate cuts, a laser guide is included with the miter saw.
