COMPOUND MITER CUTTING
COMPOUND MITER CUTTING is a combination of
miter cutting and bevel crosscutting The cut is
made at an angle other than 90° to both the edge
and the flat side of the wood
Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired
angle. Make sure miter gauge is locked
USING THE RIP FENCE
RIPPING, BEVEL RIPPING, RESAWING AND
RABBETING are performed using the RiP FENCE
together with the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK
SUPPORT, PUSH STICK OR PUSH BLOCK..
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS IN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGES 2, 3 and 4.
1 Never make these cuts FREEHAND (without
using the rip fence or auxiliary devices when
required) because the blade could bind in the
cut and cause a KICKBACK
2. Always lock the rip fence securely when in use
3. Remove miter gauge from table.
4 Make sure blade guard is installed for aft thru-
sawing type cuts. Replace the guard
IMMEDIATELY following completion of
resawing, rabbeting, dadoing, or molding
operations
Frequently check the action of the
ANTtKICKBACK PAWLS by passing the
workpiece alongside of the spreader while saw
is OFF
Pull the workpiece TOWARD you. If the PAWLS
do not DtG into the workpiece and HOLD it..
the pawls must be REPLACED OR
SHARPENED See "Maintenance" section
5 Have blade extend approximately 1/8 in above
top of workpiece Additional blade exposure
would increase the hazard potential
6 Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case
of a KICKBACK Stand to either side of the
blade
7 Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of
the path of the blade,,
8 If the blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN
SWITCH OFF before attempting to free the
blade
,r
10,
Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the
workpiece through the cut., to support long or
heavy workpieces , to remove small cut-off
pieces of material or FOR ANY OTHER
REASONS
Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material
from the table. REMOVE them by pushing them
OFF the table with a long stick Otherwise they
could be thrown back at you by the rear of the
blade
11 Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material
that may become TRAPPED inside the blade
guard while the saw is RUNNING, THIS COULD
ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or cause a
KICKBACK,
Turn the saw OFF After the blade has stopped
turning, lift the guard and remove the piece,
12, If workpiece is warped, place the CONCAVE
side DOWN, This will help prevent it from
rocking while it is being ripped.
