CUTTING AIDS AND ACCESSORIES
CUT OFF GAUGE
When crosscutting a number of pieces to the same length, you
can clamp a block of wood (A) (Fig. 24) to the fence and use it
as a cut-off gauge. The block (A) must be at least
mm) thick to prevent the cut off piece from binding between
the blade and the fence. Once the cut-off length is determined,
lock the fence and use the miter gauge to feed the workpiece
into the blade.
Always position the entire cut-off gauge in
front of the saw blade.

JIGS

Jigs may be created with a variety of special set-ups to control
particular workpiece shapes for particular cuts. Guidance on
how to make specialized jigs can be found in woodworking and
carpentry websites and publications.

LEVELING THE THROAT PLATE

Check that the throat plate is properly adjusted to the table.
Front of throat plate should be level or slightly below the
surface of the table and rear of the throat plate should be level
or slightly above the surface of the table
There are four Phillips set screws pre-assembled to the table
that are used to level the throat plate.
If the throat plate is not flush with the surface of the table,
adjust these screws to ensure the entire throat plate is flush
with the table (Fig. 8 ).

MOVING THE SAW

To move the saw firmly grasp the left and right side of the
table. Lift the saw and move to desired location. See example.

MAKING ADJUSTMENTS

(Fig. 7).
(Fig. 8)
Example
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CREATE OR USE A
JIG UNLESS YOU ARE THOROUGHLY
FAMILIAR WITH TABLE SAW SAFETY. DO NOT USE ANY
JIG THAT COULD RESULT IN PINCHING A KERF OR
JAMMING THE WORKPIECE BETWEEN THE JIG AND
THE BLADE. INCORRECT SETUPS MAY CAUSE
KICKBACK WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY.

CHANGING THE BEVEL

1.
Unlock the bevel lock lever by pulling it into the up
(horizontal) position.
2.
Holding the height adjustment wheel, slide the bevel
indicator to the desired angle.
3.
When the blade is at desired angle, lock the bevel lock
lever by pushing it down (vertical).
NOTE: For lock and unlock positions (Fig. 25).
