Cutting repetitive lengths
► 1. Set plate 2. Holder 3. Screw
When cutting several pieces of stock to the same
length, ranging from 295 mm (11 - 5/8") to 440 mm
(17 - 1/4"), use of the set plate (optional acces-
sory) will facilitate more efficient operation. Install
the set plate on the holder as shown in the figure.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either
the left or right side of the groove in the kerf board,
and while holding the workpiece from moving,
move the set plate flush against the end of the
workpiece. Then secure the set plate with the
screw. When the set plate is not used, loosen the
screw and turn the set plate out of the way.
NOTE:
• Use of the holder-rod assembly (optional acces-
sory) allows cutting repetitive lengths up to
2,200 mm (7.2 ft.) approximately.
