SUPPORT
LONG WORKP(ECES
See Figure 38.
Long workpieces need extra supports. Supports should
be placed along the workpiece so it does not sag. The
support should let the workpiece lay flat on the base of
the saw and work table during the cutting operation. Use
the work clamp or a C-clamp to secure the workpiece.
