A NOTE ON CLAMPING THE MITER GAUGE

Be sure the workpiece is long enough to be clamped securely. Loosely clamped boards can be thrown and cause injury.

To make sure the miter gauge moves freely, be sure the miter gauge clamp (K) Fig. 40 is in line with the miter bar in the T-slot (T). Clamping to either side of the bar restricts miter gauge movement.

CROSS-CUTTING

Cross-cutting requires the use of the miter gauge to posi- tion and guide the work. Before starting the cut, raise the blade so that it is about 1/8” (3.2mm) higher than the top of the workpiece. Place the work against the miter gauge and advance both the gauge and work toward the saw blade (Fig. 40). You can use the miter gauge in either table slot. Start the cut slowly and hold the work firmly against the miter gauge and

the table. Keep both hands on the miter gauge and workpiece. Do not touch the cut-off piece. Feed the workpiece steadily through the blade until the workpiece is completely cut. Shift the workpiece slightly to the side away from the blade, then pull the workpiece and miter gauge back to the starting position. Turn of the saw and remove the workpiece. Then remove the cut-off piece from the table before beginning the next cut.

NEVER touch the “free end” of the workpiece or a “free piece” that is cut off, while the power is ON and/or the saw blade is rotating. Piece may contact the blade resulting in a thrown workpiece and possible injury.

Never use the fence as a cut-off gauge when cross-cutting.

When cross-cutting a number of workpieces to the same length, use the stop (A) Fig. 40 as your cut-off gauge. Once the cut-off length is determined, use the miter gauge ONLY to feed the workpiece into the cut.

MITERING

Mitering (Fig. 40A) is the same as crosscutting except the miter gauge (C) is locked at an angle other than 0°. Clamp the workpiece firmly, and feed the work slowly into the blade to prevent the workpiece from moving.

Use caution when starting the cut to prevent binding of the guard against the workpiece. Miter angles greater than 45° may force the guard into the saw blade and damage the guard. Before starting the motor, test the operation by feeding the workpiece into the guard. If the guard contacts the blade, place the workpiece under the guard, not touching the blade, before starting the motor. Certain workpiece shapes, such as mouldings, may not lift the guard properly. Feed the work slowly to start the cut.

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING

Fig. 40A

Bevel crosscutting (Fig. 41) is the same as crosscutting except the bevel angle is set to an angle other than 0°.

When possible, use the right miter gauge slot when bevel crosscutting so that the blade tilts away from the miter gauge and your hands.

Use caution when starting the cut to prevent binding of the guard against the workpiece.

COMPOUND MITERING

Compound Mitering (Fig. 42) is a combination of bevel crosscutting and mitering, where the blade is beveled to an angle other than 0° and the miter gauge is locked at an angle other than 0°. Always use the miter slot (D) which allows the blade to tilt away from the miter gauge and hands.
