Making The Handle; Auxiliary Fence; Making The Base - Craftsman 113.196380 Owner's Manual

Cutting Aides
Making the Handle:
• Miter crosscut a piece of 3/4" thick ply-
wood to the shape and size shown. The
mitered corners can be any size that looks
like the drawing (about 1-1/2" by 1-1/2").
Putting it together:
• Using good quality wood working glue,
glue the 2-1/2" strip saved earlier to the
base as shown. Important: Do not use
nails or screws. This is to prevent dulling
of the saw blade in the event you cut in to
the push block.
• Position the handle at the edge of the ply-
wood base as shown. Fasten them togeth-
er with glue and wood screws.
Important: Make sure tile screw heads
do not stick out from the bottom of the
base. The bottom must be flat and smooth
enough to slide along the auxiliary fence
you are now ready to make.
Auxiliary Fence:
Making the base:
• Start with a piece of 3/8" thick plywood at
least 5-1/2" wide and at least 30" long.
• Cut the piece to 5-1/2" wide and 30" long.
Making the side pieces:
• Using 3/4" plywood at least 30" long, rip-
out one piece 2-1/4" wide and one piece
3-1/4" wide.
• Separately, crosscut both pieces to 30"
long.
Putting it together:
• Glue and then fasten with screws the side
pieces to the base as shown. Make sure
the edge of the base and the face of the
side piece are parallel as indicated in the
note next to the drawing. Important: Make
sure the screw or nail heads do not stick
out from the bottom of the base. The bot-
tom must be fiat and smooth enough to
rest on the saw tabh without rocking.
