Square Cuts (see figure 5)

1.Raise the saw head.

2.Slide the left vise jaw far enough to the left to allow the workpiece to be placed in the vise.

3.Place the workpiece on the work table. If the workpiece is long, provide support at the other end. It may also be necessary to provide addi- tional downward clamping to hold the workpiece securely on the work table.

4.Turn clamping hand wheel clockwise to clamp the workpiece in position against the fixed (right) vise jaw.

5.After completing the cut, turn the clamping hand wheel counterclockwise and slide the left jaw away from the workpiece.

2.Turn the locking handle on the round, angle- setting block counterclockwise to unlock the block. Slide the block until the pointer on the block is aligned with desired angle (see figure 7). Tighten the locking handle to set the angle.

3.Set the workpiece in the vise. Put the front end of the workpiece against the corner of the right vise jaw. Put the rear end of the workpiece against the angle-setting block.

4.Turn clamping hand wheel clockwise until the left vise jaw is parallel with the workpiece. Tighten the pivot screw and angle locking screw on the left vise jaw. Clamp the workpiece in position.

5.After completing the cut, turn the clamping hand wheel counterclockwise and slide the left jaw away from the workpiece.
