Saw Operations (continued)

Special Cuts

Cutting bowed material and round material are only two examples of special cuts.

Cutting Bowed Material

If workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp it with the outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make certain that there is

no gap between the workpiece, fence and table along the line of cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or rock and may cause binding on the spinning saw blade while cutting (Figure 1).

Cutting Round or Irregularly

Shaped Material

For round material such as dowel ! WARNING rods or tubing, always use a clamp

or a fixture designed to clamp the workpiece firmly against the fence and table. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to “bite” and pull the work with your hand into the blade (Figure 2).
