NEVER USE THE RIP FENCE AS A LENGTH STOP
BECAUSE
THE CUTOFF PIECE COULD BIND
BETWEEN THE FENCE AND THE BLADE CAUSING
A KICKBACK.
When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 in., clamp a
block of wood 2
irt- long to the table to act as a length
stop. Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the
table because the “swivel” of the clamp will not grip
properly. Place s small block of wood between the
bottom edge of the table and the "C" clamp
CAUTION: When clamping the block, make sure that
the end of the block is well in front of the sawblade. Be
sure it is clamped securely.
Slide the workpiece along the miter gauge until it
touches the block , , . hold it securely or clamp it with
the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) .
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,
MITER CUTTING
MITER CUTTING is known as cutting wood at an angle
other than 90® with the edge of the wood Follow the same
procedure as you would for crosscutting,,
Adjust the miter gauge to the desired angle, and lock It
The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves in the
table.
When using the miter gauge in the LEFT Hand groove, hold
the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head with
your left hand, and grip the lock knob with your right-
When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpiece
with your right hand and the lockknob with your left hand.
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the
miter gauge for greater accuracy.
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING is the same as crosscutting
except that the wood is also cut at an angle . . . other than
90° with the flat side of the wood.

Use the Miter Gauge in the groove to the RIGHT of the
blade, it cannot be used in the groove to the LEFT because
the blade guard will interfere. Hold the workpiece with
your right hand and the lockknob with your left hand
Use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT for
additional support of the workpiece
Lay it across the guide bars to support the workpiece as
near to the end as possible
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the
miter gauge for greater accuracy
COMPOUND MITER CUTTING
COMPOUND MITER CUTTING is a combination of miter
cutting and bevel crosscutting The cut is made at an angle
other than 90® to both the edge and the flat side of the
wood.
Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired angle
.. . Make sure miter gauge is locked.
