3. Adjust the miter gauge as needed by loosening the
locking knob (B).
4. Pivot the miter gauge (C) to the desired angle, and
then tighten the locking knob.
5.
Make sure the workpiece is not touching the blade.
With the power switch on, pull the Start/Stop
paddle to spin the blade.
6. Hold the workpiece squarely and firmly against the
miter gauge face and table. Push the workpiece
slowly and smoothly toward and past the blade.
7. For through-cuts, shift the workpiece slightly away
from the blade before pulling the miter gauge and
workpiece back toward the front of saw. Do NOT
touch the cut-off portion of the workpiece until the
blade has stopped.
Do not use the miter gauge in the slot on the left
of the blade when making bevel cuts.
To reduce the risk of kickback and serious injury
when cross-cutting, make sure the rip fence is
not installed on the table.
Set the blade elevation only as high as
necessary to make a cut.
Bevel Cut
A bevel cut is created by beveling the blade. In this
example, a bevel has been included with a cross cut.
To reduce the likelihood of kickback when making
beveled rip cuts, use the rip fence only on the lugs on
the right-hand side of the blade (A) (
When making beveled rip cuts, use the rip fence
on the right side of the blade only.
To reduce the likelihood of kickback when making
beveled cross cuts, use the miter gauge only in the
slot on the right-hand side of the blade.
These illustrations show the portion of the workpiece
under the slope of the blade as free to move out of
this potential pinch zone.
When making beveled cross cuts, use the miter
gauge in the right-hand miter slot only.
Remove the rip fence when making cross cuts.
Molding head cutting is not permitted. Dado
cutting is not permitted.
Tapered cuts are permissible, but are only to be
performed with the proper fixture.
