• Depending on the shape and size of the wood, use either the rip
fence or mitre gauge.

CAUTION!
Make sure the wood does not touch the blade before

feeding the workpiece into the blade.
• Position the workpiece flat on the table with the edge flush
against the rip fence or mitre gauge and hold firmly against the
saw table.
• Use a push block or push stick to move the wood through the cut

susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents
and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt,
dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING!
Do not at any time let brake fluid, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken, or destroy
plastic which may result in serious personal injury.
• Periodically check all clamps, nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness
and condition.
• Make sure the table insert is in good condition and in position.
• Check the blade guard assembly.
• To maintain the table surfaces, fence, and rails, periodically apply
paste wax to them and buff to provide smooth functioning.
• Protect the blade by cleaning out sawdust from underneath the
table and in the blade teeth. Use a resin solvent on the blade
teeth.
• Clean plastic parts only with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT use any
aerosol or petroleum solvents.
