the material for the desired length of cut and
tighten the vise.
5. Make sure the left blade guide bracket (B) is
adjusted as close as possible to the left vise jaw.
6. Turn the descent ON/OFF valve (A) to the ON position and turn the descent control valve (C)
counter-clockwise until the saw blade begins to lower at the desired rate.

to the left or right depending on the size of the
workpiece.
