AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE

When performing multiple or repetitive

cut-off operations that result in small cut-off pieces (one

inch or less), the saw blade can catch the cut-off pieces

and project them out of the machine or into the blade

guard and housing, possibly causing damage and/or

injury. In order to limit the possibility of personal injury or

blade guard damage, an auxiliary wood fence can be

mounted to your saw as follows:

Holes are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary

TYPICAL USAGE AND HELPFUL HINTS

1. Before cutting, make certain the cutting arm and

table area are at their correct settings and firmly

locked in place.

2. Before cutting, determine that the workpiece is the

right size for the saw.

3. Place the workpiece on the table and hold or clamp

it firmly against the fence.

4. If the size of the workpiece causes your hand to be

inside the table hazard zone (see section “TABLE

HAZARD ZONE” SEE FIG. 17), use a clamp to

secure the workpiece.

5. For best results, cut at a slow, even cutting rate.

6. Never attempt any freehand cutting (wood that is not

held firmly against the fence and table).

ADJUSTING EXTENSION WINGS

AND STOP BLOCK

The stop block can be used for cuting off several pieces

to the same length. The edge of the workpiece (A) Fig.

30B should rest against the stop block as shown. To

adjust the stop block to the proper measurement, loosen

the wing screw (B) Fig. 30A, reset the stop block in the

desired location and tighten the wing screw.

If the stop block (A) Fig. 30C is not needed, it can be

moved out of the way so both extension wings can be

used to support a long piece. To move the block, loosen

the wing screw (B) Fig. 30C and move it out of the way

as shown.

To adjust the extension wings (C) Fig. 30A to

accommodate long workpieces, loosen the wing screw

(D), reset the extension wing and tighten the wing screw.

The extension wing rods should not be pulled out so far

that they can’t be clamped by the wing nut and bracket

assembly (D).
