RIPPING SMALL PIECES (Refer to Fig. 25)
It is not safe to rip small pieces. It is
not safe to put your hands close to
the blade. Instead, rip a larger piece
in order to obtain the desired piece.
When a small width is to be ripped and
the hand cannot be safely put between
the blade and the rip fence, use one or
more push sticks. Use them to hold the
workpiece against the table and fence,
and to push the workpiece fully past the
blade.
CROSSCUTTING (Refer to Fig. 26)
WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, turn the saw off and disconnect
it from the power source before installing and removing accessories, before
adjusting or changing set-ups, or when making repairs. An accidental start-up
can cause injury.
WARNING! NEVER touch the “free end” of the workpiece or a “free piece”
that is cut off, while the power is ON and/or the saw blade is rotating. The piece
may contact the blade, resulting in a thrown workpiece and possible injury.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, NEVER use the fence as a guide or
a length stop when crosscutting.
WARNING! NEVER use a length stop on the free end of the workpiece when
crosscutting. In short, the cut-off piece in any through-sawing (cutting com-
pletely through the workpiece) operation must never be confined. It must be
allowed to move away from saw blade in order to prevent contact with blade,
resulting in a thrown workpiece and possibly injury.
WARNING! Use caution when starting the cut to in order prevent binding
of the guard against the workpiece, resulting in damage to saw and possible
injury.
CAUTION! When using a block as a cut-off gauge, the block must be at least
3/4” (19 mm) thick, and it is very important that the rear end of the block be
positioned so the workpiece is clear of the block before it enters the blade, in
order to prevent contact with the blade, resulting in a thrown workpiece and
possibly injury.
1. Remove the rip fence, and place the mitre gauge in the desired slot.
2. Adjust the blade height so that the blade is about 1/8” (3.2 mm) higher
than the top of the workpiece.
