To extend the life of the front table of your
saw, tack a piece of 1/4 inch plywood over it.
Make sure that the tacks are not in the path
of the saw blade.
Use of a front table cover does the following:
3. Lock the miter, bevel, or swivel lock.
These steps will reduce stress on saw parts,
and improve the accuracy of your cuts.
.Allows all cuts to be made in the cover
rather than the front table.
• Slows the dulling of the blade.
There are three pre-set miter angles at 45°,
0°, and -45 °, five pre-set bevel angles at -90 °,
-45 °, 0°, 45 °, and 90 °, and three pre-set
swivel angles at the crosscut, in-rip and out-
rip positions. When you are moving the arm,
blade, or motor into one of these positions,
do the following:
1. Move the arm, blade, or motor past
the position you want, and then gradual-
ly bring it back.
2. Once the arm, blade, or motor snaps
into the desired position, push it to the
right as far as possible within this posi-
tion. Movement of the arm, blade, or
motor will be slight.
