WORK CLAMP

See Figure 10.
The work clamp provides greater control by clamping the
workpiece to the fence. It also prevents the workpiece from
creeping toward the saw blade. This is very helpful when
cutting compound miters.
Depending on the cutting operation and the size of the
workpiece, it may be necessary to use a C-clamp instead
of the work clamp to secure the workpiece prior to making
the cut.

WARNING:

In some operations, the work clamp assembly may
interfere with the operation of the blade guard assembly.
Always make sure there is no interference with the blade
guard prior to beginning any cutting operation to reduce
the risk of serious personal injury.

To install the work clamp:

Place the shaft of the work clamp in either hole on the
saw table base.

Rotate the knob on the work clamp to move it in or out

as needed.
