CUTTING OPERATIONS
There are two basic types of cuts: rip-
ping and crosscutting.
Ripping is cut-
ting along the length and the grain of
the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting
either across the width or across the
grain of the workpiece. (It is not safe to
rip or crosscut by freehand).
Ripping requires the use of the rip
fence, and crosscutting requires the
miter gauge. NEVER USE THE TWO
AT THE SAME TIME.
NOTE: Apply a coat of automobile wax
to the table. Wipe all parts thoroughly
with a clean dry cloth, This will reduce
friction when pushing the workpiece,
wAR.I.G ]
Before using the saw each time,
check the following:
1. The blade is tightened
to the
arbor.
2. The bevel lock knob is tightened.
3. If ripping,
make sure the fence
is locked in the position
and
is parallel to the miter gauge
groove.
4. The blade guard is in place and
working
properly.
5. Safety glasses are worn.
The failure to adhere to these com-
mon safety rules, and those printed
in this manual, can greatly increase
the likelihood
of injury.
