Making Straight Cuts
To reduce risk of eye injury from flying
chips or lung damage from breathing dust,
always wear safety glasses and a respirator
when operating this machine.
There are generally two types of cuts made with
this saw—straight cuts and plunge cuts.
Straight cuts are made with the blade already
extended, with the cut beginning on one edge of
the workpiece and ending on the opposite side.
These cuts work well for cutting objects into sepa-
Zero-Stop
rate pieces and for straight-lining rough lumber.

To make straight cuts:

2.
Set depth of cut (see Setting Cutting Depth
on Page 19).
Position front of saw on workpiece, leav-
ing enough room for blade to fully extend
from bottom without coming into contact with
workpiece (see Figure 14).
