MAKING A RIP CUT

See Figure 40.

WARNING:

Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and

working properly to avoid serious possible injury.

 Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.

 Position the rip fence the desired distance from the blade

for the cut and securely lock the handle.

 Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning

on the saw.

 When ripping a long workpiece, place a support the same

height as the table surface behind the saw for the cut

work.

 Turn the saw on.

 Position the workpiece flat on the table with the edge

flush against the rip fence. Let the blade build up to full

speed before feeding the workpiece into the blade.

 Once the blade has made contact with the workpiece, use

the hand closest to the rip fence to guide it. Make sure

the edge of the workpiece remains in solid contact with

both the rip fence and the surface of the table. If ripping

a narrow piece, use a push stick and/or push blocks to

move the piece through the cut and past the blade.

 When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the

blade to come to a complete stop before removing the

workpiece.

MAKING A MITER CUT

See Figure 41.

WARNING:

Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and

working properly to avoid possible serious injury.

 Remove the rip fence.

 Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.

 Set the miter gauge to 0° and tighten the lock knob.

 Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning

on the saw.

 Turn the saw on.

 Let the blade build up to full speed before moving the

workpiece into the blade.

 Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands on the miter

gauge and feed the workpiece into the blade.

NOTE: The hand closest to the blade should be placed

on the miter gauge lock knob and the hand farthest from

the blade should be placed on the workpiece.
