CUTTING BOWED MATERIAL (FIG. CC)
WARNING
To avoid injury from materials being thrown,
always unplug the saw to avoid accidental starting and
remove small pieces of material from the table cavity
underlying the table insert.
The table insert may be removed for this purpose, but always
reattach table insert prior to performing a cutting operation.
A bowed workpiece (1) must be positioned against the fence
and secured with a hold-down clamp (2) as shown before
cutting. Do not position workpiece incorrectly or try to cut the
workpiece without the support of the fence. This will cause
the blade to bind and could result in personal injury.
