(FIG. 5a-5b)
There are two mounting holes for the
workpiece clamp. These are located just
behind the mitre fence on the left and right
side of the base.
The workpiece clamp provides greater control
by clamping the workpiece to the mitre table.
It also helps to prevent the workpiece from
creeping toward the saw blade. This is very
