ANTI-SPLINTER BASE INSERT INSTALLATION
The anti-splinter base insert is used to reduce chipping and splintering of the top fibers of plywood, paneling, and other splinter prone materials. When this insert is used it is not necessary to have the good or finished side of the work down during the cutting operation.
Install the insert as shown in Fig. 1.
NOTE: When using the anti-splinter insert, the base should be set to the forward most position, Fig. 9.
