CAUTION:
Use straight wood of even thickness as the wood
facing.
In order to completely cut through workpieces with
a height of 102 mm to 120mm a wood facing
should be used on the guide fence. The wood
facing will space the workpiece away from the
fence allowing the blade to complete a deeper cut.

When cutting workpieces 115 mm and 120
mm high, use a wood facing with the
following thickness.
