COMPONENTS
The upper podioo of the blade pro}ects up through the
tabie and is staTounded by an insert called the throat
plate. The height of the blade is set with a handwheel on
the front of the cabinet. To accommodate wide panels,
the saw table has rails on each aide, Detailed instructions
are provided in the Operation section of this manual for
the basis cuts: cross cuts, miter cuts, bevel cuts, and
compound cuts.
The sliding miter table assembly is used for sloes cutting
operations. The miter fence is easily adjusted to cut wood
at an angle by loosening the adiustJn § clamp, setting the
fence to the miter scale, and retightening the clamp. The
sliding miter table, which rests on a base mounted on the
rails, can be repositioned along the rails for wide work. it
can be reversed so the projecting base is in the back and
can be moved from the left side to the right side as need-
ed, With the miter fence removed, the miter table offers
additional support for other operations such as ripping.
The rip fence is used to position work for lengthwise cuts.
A scale on the front rail shows the distance between the
rip fence and the blade.
