MACHINE USE
TYPICAL OPERATIONS AND HELPFUL HINTS
1.
Before cutting, make certain that the cutting arm and table are at their correct settings and firmly locked in place.
2.
Place the workpiece on the table and hold or clamp it firmly against the fence. The optional clamp (A) Fig. 33 can also be used
on the right side of the machine (See Fig. 11).
3.
If the position or size of the workpiece causes your hand to be in the "Hazard Zone", use the work clamp
to secure the workpiece. Keep your hands out of the "Hazard Zone".
4.
For best results, cut at a slow, even cutting rate.
5.
Never attempt freehand cutting (wood that is not held firmly against the fence and table).
AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE
When performing multiple or repetitive operations that result in small cut-off pieces (one inch or less), the
saw blade can catch the cut-off pieces and project them out of the machine or into the blade guard and housing, causing
damage or injury. To limit the risk, mount an auxiliary wood fence on your saw (Fig. 34).
Holes are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary fence (A) Fig. 34. This auxiliary fence is constructed of straight wood
approximately 1/2" thick by 3" high by 20" long.
NOTE: The auxiliary fence (A) is used ONLY with the saw blade in the 0° bevel position (90° to the table). When you bevel cut (blade
tilted), remove the auxiliary fence.
