BEVEL CROSSCUTTING
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING is the same as crosscutting
except that the wood is also cut at an angle, other than
90° with the flat side of the wood.
Adjust the blade to the desired angle.
Use the Miter Gauge in the groove to the RIGHT of the
blade. It cannot be used in the groove to the LEFT
because the Blade Guard will interfere. Hold the work-
piece with your right hand and the Lock Handle with your
left hand.

RIPPING, BEVEL RIPPING, PLOUGHING. MOLDING,
RESAWING AND RABBETING are performed usingthe
RIP FENCE together with the AUXILIARY FENCE/
WORK SUPPORT, PUSH STICK OR PUSH BLOCK,
WARNING: For your own safety, always observe I
the following safety precautions in addition to the
I
safety instrucUons on pages 2, 3, 4, 5, 28, 29 & 30.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS
1. NEVER use the Miter Gauge when ripping.
2. Use a Push Stick whenever the fence is 2 or more
inches from the blade. When thru-sawing, use an
auxiliary fence and push block whenever the fence
must be between 1/2 and 2 inches ofthe blade. Never
thru-saw rip cuts less than 1/2 inch wide.
3. When using a Push Stick or Push Block, the trailing
end of the board must be square. A Push Stick or
Block against an uneven end could slipoff orpushthe
work away from the fence.

Before starting:
1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make
sure the Rip Fence is paratlel to the sawbtade,
2. Check the Anti-Kickback Pawls. (See "Basic Saw
Operation - Using the Rip Fence".) The Pawls must
stop a kickback once it has started. Replace or
sharpen Anti-Kickback Pawls when points become
dull.
3. Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materiaas
may be cut on your saw. However. since these are
usually quite hard and slippery, the Anti-Kickback
Pawls may not stop a kickback. Therefore, be espe-
cially careful in your set-up and cutting procedures.
While cutting:
1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the btade, ah_ays
push forward onthe section of the workpiece between
the sawblade andthe Rip Fence. Neverpushforwar_
on the piece being cut off.
