Great video Andy! Solid info! Great to see you back! I have the Hitachi C12RSH2. I have made adjustment to the fence to try and fix these issues before. I haven’t thought to look and see if my detent ring is adjustable. My is dual bevel too and have never been able to tilt it to the right. I need to unbolt it from my miter station and look at that and the detent ring. Thanks again for posting this!

I'm glad to be back. I took some time off after the holidays. A lot of times when I use the bevel function I just use a digital angle gauge. I have some more tool tuning to come, so it will be a slight change from my regular crafts that I do.

I have a Ridgid that cuts a perfect 45 when you swing it to the left but it cuts to deep of a 45 when you swing it to the right.

Oooo that's a tough one. That almost sounds like the notches aren't cut correctly. I wonder if that's a warranty thing?
@Jabbinpike
@Jabbinpike 2 ай бұрын
It could be that the miter detent has slop in it. I looked at those Rigid saws and the ones on display had slop. I don’t think there is anything you can do about that except know that it does and adjust it every time you cut. If it’s not that, your fence may not be flat from one side to the other. I’d guess it’s the former rather than the latter. It’s amazing how poorly built most miter saws are- and it doesn’t matter which brand it is. Tables are rarely flat and fences are rarely square and flat. If the fence and table are off, it won’t matter how much adjustment you do, it will never make a square cut.

Very interesting video. Question: Was your saw cutting perfect 90 degree cuts before adjusting it to make perfect 45 degree cuts? I ask because, with that style of adjustment (which is exactly the same as my Delta Cruzer), you cannot adjust the left-side 45 degree cut independently from the other cuts. If the saw is cutting perfect 90 degree cuts, the 45 degree cuts should be perfect also. If not, something is wrong with the saw that can't be fixed by a mere adjustment. You might need a new detent ring.
@cedarriverwoodworking
@cedarriverwoodworking 5 ай бұрын
The detents are correct on mine. It was tuned in before the video, so I had to re tune it. You are correct, if you move the 45 it will also effect the 90.

@@cedarriverwoodworking It works well. I haven't done the miter testing to see how off it is. The angle guide is cut into the frame, so I am not sure on adjusting it. I also added a 1/4 backing to the fence since the saw seemed to miss that last bottom corner of a cut due to the curve of the blade and not able to get the saw a touch further down.
