OPERATION (cont.)
Sawing
•
Always guide the workpiece with both hands, holding flat on the table (19) in order to
prevent the blade (5) from jamming.
•
Feed the workpiece at a uniform speed that enables the blade (5) to cut through the
material without difficult and without blocking.
•
Always use the Rip fence (21) on all cuts for which they are intended.
•
Always aim at making a complete cut in one pass rather then a stop-and-go operation
requiring the workpiece to be withdrawn.
•
Curve cuts which are too tight for the blade (5) to cut correctly, it can help to make a
series of close-lying cuts right angles to the curve line.
CAUTION!
The When handling narrower workpieces , it is essential to use a the push
stick (31).
