SLIDE CUTTING WIDE BOARDS (FIG. 36)
Always use a work clamp to maintain control and
reduce the risk of workpiece damage and personal
injury.
To avoid injury:
ŏ Let the blade reach full speed before cutting.
This will help reduce the risk of a thrown
workpiece.
ŏ Do not make crosscuts by lowering the blade
and pulling the saw head through the wood
toward you. The blade may try to climb up
on top of the workpiece, causing the cutting
assembly and spinning blade to kick back
forcefully.
ŏ Unlock the carriage lock handle (1) and allow
the cutting head assembly to move freely.
ŏ Set both the desired bevel angle and/or the
miter angle and lock into position.
ŏ Use a hold down clamp to secure the
workpiece (2).
ŏ Grasp the switch handle (3) and pull forward
until the center of the saw blade is over the front
of the workpiece (2).
ŏ Engage the trigger to turn the saw on.
ŏ When the saw reaches full speed, slowly push
the saw handle down, cutting through the
leading edge of the workpiece (2).
ŏ Slowly move the saw handle back toward the
fence, completing the cut.
ŏ Release the trigger and allow the blade to stop
spinning before raising the cutting head and
removing the workpiece (2).
