Getting To Know Your Table
Saw (Continued)
If you are making a rip type cut in thinner materials, the facing should be attached to the fence so that the bottom edge touches the top surface of the table. In this situation, the facing must be lower than the fence. This will prevent thin material from sliding under the rip fence.
When positioning fence 14 for maximum rip ! WARNING cutting (without table extension), make sure side
of fence housing (a) is even with the side edge of the table 2. Do not make rip cuts or dado cuts beyond this position because the fence can not be properly locked. Maximum rip cut capacity is 10 3/4 inches (Fig. 5).
15. BLADE GUARD

insert.
To remove the insert:
A. Lower the blade below the table surface. B. Raise blade guard.
C. Remove insert screws and lift insert from pocket in table.
Never operate the saw without the proper insert in place. Use the saw insert when sawing, and the dado insert when dado cutting.
17. MITER GAUGE
Head can be locked in desired position for crosscutting or mitering by tightening the lock handle. ALWAYS SECURELY LOCK IT WHEN IN USE.
Notches are provided in the miter gauge 17 for attaching an AUXILIARY FACING (b) to make it easier to cut longer pieces. Be sure facing does not interfere with the proper operation of the saw blade guard.
Select a suitable piece of smooth straight wood 3/4" thick, drill two holes through it and attach it with two round head #10 or #12 round head screws
NOTE: When bevel crosscutting, attach facing so that it extends to the right of the miter gauge and use the miter gauge in the groove to the right of the blade.
