Basic Saw Operations
Auxiliary Fence - Certain types of molding need a
fence face extension because of the size and posi-
tion of the workpiece. Dado cuts also require an aux-
iliary fence. Holes are provided in the fence to attach
an auxiliary fence. The auxiliary fence is used with
the saw in the 0° bevel position only.
.
.
Place a piece of wood against the miter saw
fence (Figure 21). (Wood can have a maximum
height of 3-1/2". Check that head assembly
does not interfere with auxiliary fence.)
Mark the locations of the support holes on the
wood from the back side of the fence.
.
.
Drill and countersink the holes on the front of the
support board.
Attach the auxiliary fence using two at least (2)
1/4" flat head machine screws per side. Make a
full depth cut to create the blade slot. Check for
interference between the auxiliary fence and the
lower blade guard. Make adjustments as neces-
sary.
Check for interference from any
components.
