manual BEFORE
To complete a typical operation, the operator
does the following:
1. Examines the workpiece to make sure it is
suitable for cutting.
2. Adjusts the blade tilt, if necessary, to the cor-
rect angle of the desired cut.
3.
Adjusts the blade height approximately
higher than the thickness of the workpiece.
4.
Adjusts the fence to the desired width of cut
then locks it in place.
5. Checks the outfeed side of the machine
for proper support and to make sure the
workpiece can safely pass all the way through
the blade without interference.
6. Puts on safety glasses and a respirator, and
locates push sticks if needed.
7. Starts the saw.
8. Feeds the workpiece all the way through the
blade while maintaining firm pressure on the
workpiece against the table and fence, and
keeping hands and fingers out of the blade
path and away from the blade.
9.
Stops the machine immediately after the cut
is complete.
If you are not experienced with this type
of machine, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND
that you seek additional training outside of
this manual. Read books/magazines or get
formal training before beginning any proj-
ects. Regardless of the content in this sec-
tion, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable
