to come closer than 3 in. to the blade. Do not reach over

 

or across the blade. Failure to heed this warning can

 

result in serious personal injury.

 

MAKING CUTS

The blade provided with your saw is a high-quality combina- tion blade suitable for ripping and crosscut operations.

WARNING:

All blades must be rated for at least 5,500 RPM to prevent possible injury.

TO MAKE A CROSS CUT

See Figure 26.

Fig. 25

WARNING:

Never use rip fence as cutoff gauge when crosscutting.

WARNING:

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

Note: When the miter fence is placed in the first hole (one towards the center of the sliding miter table), use the scale on the outside of the sliding miter table. To increase cutting capacity, use the second hole (one closest to the front of the table), using the front of the miter fence to read the inner scale.

It is recommended you make test cuts on scrap wood.

￿Remove the rip fence by lifting the locking handle.

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