CONNECTING TO A DUST COLLECTOR
CUTTING CURVES
• When cutting curves, carefully turn the workpiece so the blade follows without twisting. If the curve is so sharp
that you repeatedly back up and cut new kerf, use a narrower blade, or a blade with more set (teeth further
apart). When a blade has more set, the workpiece turns easier but the cut is rougher.
• When changing a cut, do not withdraw the workpiece from the blade. The blade may get drawn off the
wheels.
• To change a cut, turn the workpiece and cut your way out through the waste material area.
• When cutting long curves, make relief cuts as you go along.

Blade width
• Adjust the blade guard assembly to 1/8” above
the workpiece.
• Use both hands while feeding the work into the
blade. Hold the workpiece firmly against the ta-
ble. Use gentle pressure. Do not force the work. Al-
low the blade to cut.
• The smallest diameter circle that can be cut is de-
termined by the width of the blade. For example,
a 1/4” wide blade will cut a minimum diameter of
approximately 1-1/2”.
