10. Tips and Tricks

− For long stock use suitable supports
on both sides of the saw.
− Use auxiliary fence when sawing
small cut-offs (this may be a suitable
board, fastened with four screws to
the fence).
− When cutting warped stock, place
the convex side of the bow against
the fence.
− Do not cut stock standing on edge;
always place it flat on the rotating
table.
− Keep the supporting surfaces clean
– in particular, remove resin residue
with a suitable cleaning and mainte-
nance spray.
