CUTTING TIPS
RIPPING CUTS & CROSS CUTS
Ripping is when you use the saw to cut along the grain of the wood.
The parallel fence must always be used when making ripping cuts.
1. Press one edge of the workpiece
against the parallel fence while
the flat side lies on the saw table.
• The blade guard must always
be lowered over the workpiece
and blade.
• When you make a ripping cut,
never stand in line with the
blade.
2. Set the parallel fence in
accordance with the desired width.
3. Switch on the saw.
4. Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on the workpiece and push the
workpiece along the parallel fence towards the blade.
5. Guide at the side with your left or right hand (depending on the position of
the parallel fence) only as far as the front edge of the guard hood.
6. Always push the workpiece through to the end of the riving knife using a
push stick.
7. Do not remove the offcut piece until the blade has stopped spinning.
8. Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end of the cut (e.g. with a
roller stand etc).
CUTTING NARROW WORKPIECES
Always use a push stick when the
workpiece is narrow and for holding
the workpiece flat on the table.
IMPORTANT: Take extra care to keep
you thumbs away from the saw
blade when feeding the workpiece
past the blade.
