OPERATION

MAKING A BEVEL CROSS CUT

See Figures 39 - 40.

It is recommended that you place the piece to be saved on the left side of the blade and that you make a test cut on scrap wood.

WARNING:

Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and working properly to avoid serious personal injury.

Remove the rip fence by lifting the locking lever.

Unlock the bevel locking lever and move height/bevel adjusting handwheel until bevel indicator is at desired angle.

Push the bevel locking lever toward the table to relock.

Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.

Set miter gauge to 0° and tighten the lock knob.

Place a support (the same height as saw table) behind the saw for the cut work.

Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning on the saw.

Let the saw blade build up to full speed before moving the miter gauge and the workpiece into the blade.

Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands and feed the workpiece into the blade.

NOTE: The hand closest to the blade should be placed on the miter gauge lock knob and the hand farthest from the blade should be placed on the workpiece.

When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing any part of the workpiece.
