SLIDING FENCE (FIG. EE)
WARNING J
• The sliding fence must be
extended to the left or right when
making bevel cuts.The sliding
fence noted three bevel angles
where the user must adjust the
fences to match the degree of
the bevel cut. Failure to extend
the sliding fence will not allow
enough space for the blade to
pass through which could result
in serious injury. At extreme
miter or bevel angles the saw
blade may also contact the
fence.
