What happens here

To adjust the miter angle, locate the unlock button or lever, typically at the back of the saw, and engage it to raise the blade. The miter scale, located on the front of the saw's base, allows you to pivot the blade assembly from 0 degrees (straight cut) to various angles, such as 55 or 60 degrees in either direction. The creator notes that specific preset angles will be covered in a different video. For a standard cut, ensure the miter is set to 0 degrees.

Goal: Set the miter angle for specific cuts.
