Select a suitable piece of smooth straight wood ...

drill two holes through it and attach it with smalt

screws and nuts. The nuts go inside of the miter gauge. Or drill 1/4 in. holes all the way through the head. Then

you can attach the facing with wood screws.

NOTE: When bevel crosscutting, attach facing so that it

extends to the right of the miter gauge and use the miter gauge in the groove to the right of the blade.

8 BLADEGUARD must always be in place and working

properly for all thru-sawing cuts. That is, all cuts

whereby the blade cuts completely through the workpiece.

To remove the guard for special operations, loosen the

thumbscrew and slide the guard off of the rod. DO NOT DISTURB THE SETTING OF THE ROD.

When replacing the guard, make sure the PIN in the rod engages with the NOTCH in the spreader support. Make

sure thumbscrew is tightened securely.

7 MITER GAUGE ... head is locked in position for

crosscutting or mitering by tightening the lock handle.

ALWAYS LOCK IT SECURELY WHEN IN USE.

There are two holes for the stop pin at the 45 degree

right and left positions for conveniently setting the Miter Gauge to cut miters.

NOTE: The holes for the stop pin and the graduations

are manufactured to very close tolerances which

provide accuracy for average woodworking. In some cases where extreme accuracy is required, when making

angle cuts, for example, make a trial cut and then recheck it.

If necessary, the miter gauge head can then be swiveled slightly to compensate and then locked.

Holes are provided in the miter gauge for attaching an

AUXILIARY FACING to make it easier to cut long pieces.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN

SWITCH "OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM

POWER SOURCE OUTLET BEFORE REMOVING INSERT.

A.Lower the blade below the table surface.

B.Raise blade guard.

C.Lift insert from front end, and pull toward front of saw.

NEVER OPERATE THE SAW WITHOUT THE PROPER INSERT IN PLACE. USE THE SAW BLADE
