AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE (FIG. II) When making multiple or repetitive cuts that result in cut-off pieces of one inch or less, it is possible for the saw blade to catch the cut-off piece and throw it out of the saw or into the blade guard and housing, possibly causing damage or injury. To minimize this possibility, an auxiliary wood fence can be mounted to your saw.

Holes are provided in the saw fence to attach an auxiliary wood fence. This fence should be constructed of straight auxiliary wood.

Attach the wood fence securely, and make a full-depth cut to make a blade slot.

Check for interference between the wood fence and the lower blade guard.

CUTTING BASE MOULDING (FIG. JJ) Base mouldings and trims can be cut on a compound miter saw. The method depends on the type of moulding, its characteristics and applications.

1.Use vise clamps, hold-down or C-clamps whenever possible. Place tape on the area being clamped to avoid marking the finish surface of the moulding.

2.Tape the area being cut to avoid splintering, and mark the cut line on the tape.

3.Perform practice cuts on scrap pieces before cutting the final moulding.

NOTE: Splintering may be caused due to the thinness of the moulding or use of the wrong type of blade.

Adjust if necessary.

NOTE: This auxiliary fence is used only with the saw blade in the 0° bevel position (90° to the table). The auxiliary wood fence must be removed when bevel cutting.
