Circle Cutting
(FIGURE H)
- Insert rip fence into slot on the right side
of saw shoe with cross bar facing up.
- Adjust rip fence so that distance from
blade to hole in cross bar is the desired
radius and tighten screw.
- Place saw so that center of hole in cross
bar is over center of circle to be cut (make
pocket cut, drill hole for blade or cut inward
from edge of material to get blade into
position).
- When saw is properly positioned, drive
a small nail through hole in cross bar into
exact center of circle to be cut. Using rip
fence as a pivot arm, begin cutting circle.
Pocket Cutting (FIGURE I)
A pocket cut is an easy method of making
an inside cut. The saw can be inserted
directly into a panel or board without
first drilling a lead or pilot hole. In pocket
cutting, measure the surface to be cut and
mark clearly with a pencil. Next tip the saw
forward until the front end of the shoe sits
firmly on the work surface and the blade
clears the work through its full stroke.
Switch the tool on and allow it to attain
maximum speed. Grip the saw firmly and
lower the back edge of tool slowly until the
blade reaches its complete depth. Hold
the shoe flat against the wood and begin
cutting. Do not remove blade from cut while
it is still moving. Blade must come to a
complete stop.
