A – TRACK ARM CLAMP KNOB. Controls swing of track arm for all miter cutting operations. Locks track arm at any angle for the full 360º rotation. To rotate track arm loosen clamp knob and rotate arm. The arm will stop at the 0º and 45º positions right and left. To move the arm past these points the track arm index knob (B) must be pulled out. (Fig. 2)

B – TRACK ARM INDEX KNOB. Locates 0º and 45º position, right and left, of the track arm. (Fig. 2)

C – YOKE INDEX LEVER. Locates each 90º position of the yoke for ripping or cross-cutting operations. When rotating the yoke the yoke clamp handle must first be loose. (Fig. 2)

D – YOKE CLAMP HANDLE. The yoke clamp handle must be loose when rotating the yoke to the rip or cross-cut position. (Fig. 3)

E – ANTI-KICKBACK DEVICE. When ripping, the yoke is po- sitioned and clamped so that the blade is parallel to the fence. The infeed side of the blade guard is lowered until it almost touches the workpiece. The anti-kickback rod is then lowered so that the fingers catch and hold the workpiece. Never rip from the anti-kickback end of the blade guard. (Fig. 3)

F – OVERARM ELEVATING HANDLE. Controls the depth of cut in all operations. Turning the handle raises or lowers the

overarm. (Fig. 2)

G – CUTTINGHEAD CLAMP KNOB. Locks cuttinghead at any position on the track arm. When ripping the cutting clamp knob must be tight. (Fig. 3)

H – BEVEL INDEX KNOB. Locates 0º and 45º and 90º positions of the motor when bevel cutting. When tilting the motor for bevel cutting, the bevel clamp handle must first be loose. (Fig. 3)

J – BEVEL CLAMP LEVER. Controls tilt of motor for bevel cutting operations. Locks motor at any desired angle on the bevel scale. (Fig. 3)

K – TABLE CLAMP KNOBS. Allows the operator to quickly set the desired fence position. (Fig. 3)

L – ON-OFF SWITCH. Conveniently placed at eye level; switch can be turned on or off in an instant for added operator protection. (Fig. 3)

M – MITER SCALE. Indicates degrees left and right for setting track arm. (Fig. 2)

N – TRACK ARM STOP. (Located under the track arm.). See

(A)Fig. 58 on Page 24 for illustration. This stop prevents the blade from contacting column when making straight cut-offs with the motor tilted for a 45 degree bevel cut.
