Glossary of Terms for Woodworking ...............
Arbor Miter Cut
The shaft on which a cutting tool is mounted An angle cutting operation made across the width of the
Bevel Cut workpiece
An angle cutting operation made through the face of the Resin
workpiece A sticky, sap based substance that has hardened.
Compound Cut
A simultaneous bevel and miter cutting operations
Crosscut
A cutting operation made across the width of the work-
piece
Freehand
Performing a cut without using a fence (guide), hold
down or other proper device to prevent the workpiece
from twisting during the cutting operation Twisting of
the workpiece can cause it to be thrown.
Gum
A sticky, sap based residue from wood products
Heel
Misalignment of the blade
Kerf
The amount of material removed by the blade in a
through cut or the slot produced by the blade in a non-
through or partial cut
Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)
The number of turns completed by a spinning object in
one minute
Sawblade Path
The area of the workpiece or table top directly in line
with either the travel of the blade or the part of the work-
piece which will be, or has been, cut by the blade
Set
The distance that the tip of the sawblade tooth is bent
(or set) outward from the face of the blade
Workpiece
The item on which the cutting operation is being per-
formed. The surfaces of a workpiece are commonly
referred to as faces, ends, and edges

WARNING: To avoid electrical hazards, fire haz-
ards, or damage, or damage to the toot, use prop-
er circuit protection. Your saw is wired at the fac-
tory for 120v operation. Connect to a t20v, 15-
amp branch circuit and use a 15-amp time delay
fuse or circuit breaker. To avoid shock or fire, if
power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any
way, have it replaced immediately.
Double Insulated
The miter saw is double insulated to provide a double
thickness of insulation between you and the tool's elec-
trical system All exposed metal parts are isolated from
the internal metal motor components with protecting
insulation
Your unit has a plug that looks like the one shown
below
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way, if the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse plug If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet, Do not change the plug in any way
WARNING: Double insulation does not take the
place of normal safety precautions when operat-
ing this tool.
