Fence size
Right side is 33/8 ' ' x 9%" (86 mm x 251 mm); Left is 5%" x 93/4 , , (133 mm x 248 mm); (Fence extension on left
side can increase width to 14W' (362 mm))
TYPICAL
OPERATIONS
AND HELPFUL
HINTS
IF THE SIZE OF THE WORKPIECE
CAUSES YOUR HAND TO BE WITHIN SIX INCHES OF THE SAW BLADE,
USE A CLAMP TO SECURE THE WORKPIECE.
1.
Before cutting, make certain that the cutting arm and table area are at their correct settings and firmly locked in place.
2.
Before cutting, determine that the workpiece is the right size for the saw and the guard will operate properly.
3.
Place the workpiece on the table and hold or clamp it firmly against the fence.
4.
For best results, cut at a slow, even cutting rate.
5.
Never attempt freehand cutting (cutting a workpiece that is not held firmly against the fence and table).
_
NEVER release the trigger during a cut. Always wait until the cut is complete.
The saw head
drop slightly
may
towards the workpiece causing possible damage and personal injury.
NOTE: If a partial cut must be made, bring the saw head back to the up position before releasing trigger.
AUXILIARY
WOOD
FENCE
When
performing
multiple
or
repetitive
cut-off
operations that result in small cut-off pieces (one inch
or less), the saw blade can catch the cut-off pieces and project them
out of the machine or into the blade guard and housing, possibly
causing damage and/or injury. In order to limit the possibility of
personal injury or blade guard damage keep the blade down until
stopped and then mount an auxiliary wood fence to your saw.
Holes are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary fence (A) and
(B) (Fig. 29). This auxiliary fence is constructed
of straight wood
approximately 1/2" thick. Both sides A and B should be approximately
5.25" high by 11.5 inches long.
NOTE: The auxiliary fence (A) is used only with the saw blade in
the 0 ° bevel position (90°) to the table. The auxiliary fence must be
removed for all bevel cuts (blade tilted).

MAKE SURE THAT THE FENCES ARE CLEAR OF THE GUARD AND BLADE BEFORE OPERATING

SAW.
CUTTING
LARGE MATERIAL
Occasionally
you will encounter
a piece of wood a little too large to fit beneath the blade guard. If this occurs, simply place your
right thumb on the upper side of the guard and roll the guard up just enough to clear the workpiece.
Avoid doing this as much as
but if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the bigger cut.
NEVER TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE
HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING THIS SAW.
