of the blade to avoid trapping the wood and causing
kickback. Placement of the rip fence to the left of the
blade will result in kickback and the risk of serious
personal injury.
[] Adjust the bevel angle to the desired setting.
[] Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.
[] Position the rip fence the desired distance from the
blade for the cut and securely lock the handle.
[] If ripping a piece larger than 36 in. long, place a
support the same height as the table surface behind
the saw for the cut work.

Turn the power switch to the on position.
Position the workpiece flat on the table with the edge
flush against the rip fence. Let the blade build up to full
speed before feeding the workpiece into the blade.
Using a push stick and/or push blocks, slowly feed
the workpiece toward the blade. Stand slightly to the
side of the wood as it contacts the blade to reduce the
chance of injury should kickback occur.
