AUXILIARY
FENCE
ALIGN BOARD
WITH EDGE OF
MITER TABLE
OPERATION
Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece
and removing the workpiece from miter table.
NOTE: A cross cut is made by cutting across the grain of
the workpiece. A straight cross cut is made with the miter
table set at the 0° position. Miter cross cuts are made with
the miter table set at some angle other than 0°.
MAKING AN AUXILIARY FENCE
See Figure 38.
Depending on the size and position of the workpiece, certain
unusual cuts may benefit from the additional support that
can be provided by an auxiliary fence. The holes provided
in the sliding miter fence are used to secure an auxiliary
fence in place.
NOTE: The auxiliary fence can only be used when the bevel
is set at 0°. When making a bevel cut, the auxiliary fence
MUST be removed.
NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the sliding miter fence
to ensure proper clearance prior to installing auxiliary fence.
To attach the auxiliary fence to the saw:
Make sure the fence adjusting screw is tightened securely.
Place one 10 in. long piece of wood against the miter
fence and aligned with the left edge of the miter table.
NOTE: The appropriate height and thickness of the fence
will vary based on the miter angle and the material being
cut.
Clamp the wood tightly against the fence and drive wood
screws from the back of the fence through the two holes
and into the auxiliary fence. If necessary, drill a pilot hole
into wood first to prevent splitting. Remove clamp when
finished.
NOTE: Make sure the screws you use to attach the
auxiliary fence do not pass through the front face of the
fence and the length of the screws will not put them in
the path of the blade at any angle.
Make full left miter cut through the auxiliary fence.
NOTE: Check for interference between the auxiliary fence
and the lower blade guard. Correct any interference be-
fore proceeding.
Repeat steps with second board by aligning with right
side of miter table and making a full right miter cut through
the auxiliary fence.
