Clamping Wide Workpieces - RIDGID R4120 Operator's Manual

OPERATION
SUPPORTING LONG WORKPIECES
See Figures 31 - 32.
Long workpieces need extra supports. Supports should be
placed along the workpiece so it does not sag. The support
should let the workpiece lay flat on the base of the saw and
miter table during the cutting operation. Use the work clamp
to secure the workpiece.
NOTE: When making a compound miter cut
figure 32, it may be necessary to adjust or
ing miter fence and/or move the work clamp to the hole
in the table extension to insure proper clearance prior to
making the cut.
