OPERATION

TO MAKE A BEVEL CROSS CUT

See Figure 39.

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 handle.

■Move the bevel locking lever to the right for Angle mode. Turn the blade adjustment handle until the bevel indicator is at the desired angle. Push the bevel locking lever securely to the left to lock the angle.

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

■Loosen the adjusting clamp on the miter fence. Set the miter fence to 90° with either the quick-stop or the miter scale.

■Make sure the miter fence will not contact the blade as the wood feeds into the blade. Make a trial pass of the miter table. The end of the miter fence should not contact the blade. Loosen the adjusting clamp to move it away from the blade if needed.

■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 blade build up to full speed before moving the miter table to feed the workpiece into the blade.

■Hold the work with both hands and push the miter table to feed the work into the blade.

TO MAKE A BEVEL RIP CUT

See Figure 40.

It is recommended you make test cuts on scrap wood.

WARNING:

The rip fence must be on the left side of the blade to avoid trapping the wood and causing kickback. Placement of the rip fence to the right of the blade will result in kickback and the risk of serious personal injury.

WARNING:

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

Before making this cut, use scrap wood to make an insert 5 in. wide, 22 in. long, and 3/4 in. thick. You may want to make others that are more than 5 in. wide.

■Place sliding miter table on the right side of blade and lock securely.

■Attach the rip fence over the front and rear rails on the left side and lock securely. Reset the scale to the blade if needed.
