Crosscutting

Crosscutting means cutting across the grain of the workpiece. In workpieces without grain (i.e. MDF, particleboard) crosscutting simply means cutting across the width of the workpiece.

Crosscuts are made with the miter gauge. There are two miter gauge slots in the table top. Use the one that works best for the piece being crosscut.

To make a 90˚ crosscut using the miter gauge:

1.Adjust the miter gauge to the 90û position.

2.Move the fence completely away from the cutting operation.

3.Position the miter gauge in one of the two miter slots.

4.Adjust the blade height so the highest saw tooth protrudes approximately 1Ú4" above the workpiece.

5.Hold the workpiece against the miter gauge and line up the cut with the blade.

6.Turn on the saw and allow it to reach full speed.

7.Hold the workpiece firmly against the face of the miter gauge and ease it into the blade as shown in Figure 44.

Figure 44. Crosscutting operation.

Turn off the saw and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the cut-off piece. Failure to follow this warn- ing could result in serious personal injury
