CAUTION:
• Use straight wood of even thickness as the wood facing.
• Use screws to attach the wood facing to the guide fence. The screws
should be installed so that the screw heads are below the surface of the
wood facing.
• When the wood facing is attached, do not turn the turn base with the
handle lowered. The blade and/or the wood facing will be damaged.
8. Cutting repetitive lengths
001846
When cutting several pieces of stock to the same length, ranging from
220 mm to 385 mm, use of the set plate (optional accessory) will facili-
1
tate more efficient operation. Install the set plate on the holder (optional
accessory) as shown in the figure.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either the left or right side of
the groove in the kerf board, and while holding the workpiece from mov-
ing, move the set plate flush against the end of the workpiece. Then
secure the set plate with the screw. When the set plate is not used,
2
loosen the screw and turn the set plate out of the way.
NOTE:
• Use of the holder-rod assembly (optional accessory) allows cutting
repetitive lengths up to 2,200 mm approximately.
9. Groove cutting
001563
A dado type cut can be made by proceeding as follows:
Adjust the lower limit position of the blade using the adjusting screw and
the stopper arm to limit the cutting depth of the blade. Refer to "Stopper
arm" section described on previously.
After adjusting the lower limit position of the blade, cut parallel grooves
across the width of the workpiece using a slide (push) cut as shown in
the figure. Then remove the workpiece material between the grooves
with a chisel. Do not attempt to perform this type of cut using wide (thick)
blades or with a dado blade. Possible loss of control and injury may
result.
CAUTION:
• Be sure to return the stopper arm to the original position when
performing other than groove cutting.
