CUTTING WARPED MATERIAL

See Figures 31 - 32.

When cutting warped material, always make sure it is posi- tioned on the miter table with the convex side against the fence as shown in figure 31.

If the warped material is positioned the wrong way as shown in figure 32, it will pinch the blade near the completion of the cut.

WARNING:

To avoid a kickback and to avoid serious personal injury, never position the concave edge of bowed or warped material against the fence.

CLAMPING WIDE WORKPIECES

See Figure 33.

When cutting wide workpieces, such as 2 in. x 6 in., boards should be clamped with a C-clamp as shown in figure 33.
