Repetitive Cutting - Craftsman 113.226830 Owner's Manual

When cutting long workpieces, invert AUXILIARY
FENCE/WORK SUPPORT and position it on top of
the guide bars to support the workpiece as near to
the end as possible. If this does not adequately
support the workpiece, you can make a simple
support by clamping a piece of plywood to a
sawhorse.
AUXILIARY FENCE/
WORK SUPPORT
\
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory)
on the miter gauge for greater accuracy.
REPETITIVE CUTTING
REPETITIVE CUTTING is cutting a quantity of
pieces the same length without having to mark each
piece.
1. Use the Stop Rods (optional accessory) onlyfor
cutting duplicate pieces 6 in. long and longer.
2. DO NOT FEED workpiece with RIGHT Hand,
merely guide it, making sure that it does not bind
or pinch the sawblade.
When making repetitive cuts from a long workpiece,
make sure it is adequately supported.
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory)
on the miter gauge for greater accuracy.

1. NEVER USE THE RIP FENCE AS A LENGTH
STOP BECAUSE THE CUTOFF PIECE COULD
BIND BETWEEN THE FENCE AND THE BLADE
CAUSING A KICKBACK.
2. When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 in.,
clamp a block of wood 2 in. long to the table to
act as a length stop. Do not clamp directly to ,he
bottom edge of the table because the "swivel" of
the clamp will not grip properly. Place a small
block of wood between the bottom edge of the
table and the "C" clamp.
CAUTION: When clami_ing the block, make
sure that the end of the block is well in front of
the sawblade. Be sure it is clamped securely.
3. Slide the workpiece along the miter gauge until it
touches the block.., hold it securely or clamp it
with the Hold-Down Clamp.
4. Make the cut . . . pull the workpiece
back.., push the cut off piece off the table with
a long push stick ... DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
PiCK IT UP AS THIS COULD ENDANGER
YOUR HANDS.
