1. Remove the miter gauge and store it in the “storage”

compartment in the base of the saw.

2. Secure the rip fence to the table.

3. Raise the blade so it is about 1/8 in. higher than the

top of the workpiece.

4. Place the workpiece at on the table and against the

fence. Keep the workpiece away from the blade.

5. Turn the saw ON and wait for the blade to come to

full speed.

6. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade by pushing

forward only on the workpiece section (1) that will

pass between the blade and the fence. (Fig. QQ)

7. Keep your thumbs off the table top. When both of

your thumbs touch the front edge of the table (2),

nish the cut with a push stick (3). To make an

additional push stick, use the pattern on page 37.

(Fig. QQ)

CUTTING OPERATIONS

There are two basic types of cuts: ripping and

crosscutting. Ripping is cutting along the length and the

grain of the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting either

across the width or across the grain of the workpiece.

(It is not safe to rip or crosscut by freehand). Ripping

requires the use of the rip fence, and crosscutting

requires the miter gauge. NEVER USE THE TWO AT

THE SAME TIME.
