Operation
CAUTION :
*Make sure the blade guard works smoothly and properly for making both square cuts
and bevel cuts before operation.
*Never withdraw the workpiece while the blade
i s
running. I f you must withdraw the
workpiece before completing a cut, first switch the tool off while holding the work-
piece firmly. Wait until the blade has come to
a
complete stop before withdrawing the
workpiece. Failure to do so may cause dangerous kickback.
Never remove cut-off pieces that may be trapped inside the blade guard while the blade
is
running.
When moving the sliding table, do not place your fingers or hands on the reverse side of
the sliding table. You may
get
your fingers pinched between the sliding table and bars.
Work helpers

make safe, sure cuts without the need for the operator to contact the blade with any part
of the body.
