3.Adjust the blade height so it is 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) higher than the top of the workpiece (2).

4.Hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge with the blade path in line with the desired cut location. Move the workpiece to 1in. (25.4 mm) distance from the blade (3).

5.Start the saw and wait for the blade to come up to full speed. Never stand directly inline of the saw blade path, always stand to the side of the blade that you are cutting on.
