once the right position reached.
Bring the fence for parallel cuts
(5) in the correct
position according to the width of the piece to be cut.
Use the piece – pushing system au when you must
cut narrow pieces in order to have always your hands
far from the blade.
Before beginning a cut of a big dimensions piece verify
to have enough space around the machine, thus
allowing a correct maintaining of the piece. Also verify
that the piece is correctly hold in order to avoid any
kind of effort against the blade.
