New, Professional Accuracy

for Compound Cung.

Milwaukee's new 10" Magnum® Compound miter saw is now available with the same

accurate, professional cutting ability found in our Magnum® miter saw.

The Magnum Compound features: an exclusive, turnable flip fence for either miter

or compound cuts; a bevel range from negative 3° to 50° and an extra long work suppot table.

Compounding Magnum's features are a powerful 15 amp motor capable of cutting 2x6's at 90°, up to

5-1/2" base and 4-3/4" crown molding; a unique axis mechanism for accurate cutting; an override

that locks the table at any angle from 51 ° left to 59° right, and an automatic retracting lower guard for

visibility and large capacity cutting. With an electric brake, spindle lock, built-in carying handle and

blade wrench storage, the Magnum Compound is designed for professional use.
