CROSSCUTTING

• Cross cutting: Cross cutting is performed predominantly in
a perpendicular direction with the grain of the wood.
• Make sure blade is parallel to miter gauge slot prior to
cutting. Instructions for adjustment on page 20.
• NEVER use the fence as a guide or length stop when
crosscutting.
• The cut-off piece must never be confined in any through-
sawing (cutting completely through the workpiece)
operation—to prevent pinching blade which may result in a
thrown workpiece and possibly injury.
• When using a block as a cut-off gauge, the block must be
at least / -inch (19mm) thick. It is very important that the
3
4
rear end of the block be secured in a position where the
workpiece is clear of the block before it enters the blade to
prevent binding of the workpiece.
You can use the miter gauge in either table slot on non-bevel
cuts. To increase surface area of miter gauge face, add an
auxiliary face (See Cutting Aids section on of this manual.)
TO MAKE A CROSSCUT, REFER TO FIGURE 25 AND
FOLLOW THIS PROCESS:
1.
Remove rip fence.
2.
Make sure bevel angle is set to 0°.
3.
Set blade to correct height for workpiece.
4.
Place miter gauge in either miter slot.
5.
Set miter gauge to 90° and tighten miter gauge lock
knob.
6.
Hands must remain at least 6 inches from blade
throughout entire cut. If workpiece is too small to keep
hands at least 6 inches away from the blade, select
a larger workpiece, or attach an auxiliary face to the
miter gauge and attach workpiece to auxiliary face, For
instructions about making auxiliary faces, see Cutting
Aids section of this manual.

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING

Bevel crosscutting is the same as crosscutting except the bevel
angle (A) is set to an angle other than 0°. When making a
bevel crosscut, place the miter gauge in the right miter slot so
that the blade is tilted away from the gauge and hands

MITER CROSSCUTTING

Miter crosscutting is the same as crosscutting except the miter
angel (B) is set to an angle other than 90˚
• Miter angles more than 45˚ may force the blade guard
assembly into the saw blade causing damage to the blade
guard assembly and personal injury. Before starting the
motor, test the operation by feeding the workpiece into
the blade guard assembly. If the blade guard assembly
contacts the blade, place the workpiece under the blade
guard assembly but not touching the blade - before starting
the motor.
• Certain workpiece shapes, such as molding may not lift
the blade guard assembly properly. With the power off,

7.
Make sure the workpiece is clear of the blade - at least
1 inch or 25mm away - before starting the saw.
8.
Turn saw on.
9.
Let blade build up to full speed before moving
workpiece into the blade.
Hand closest to blade should be placed on miter gauge
lock knob and hand farthest from blade should hold
workpiece firmly against the miter gauge face. Do
not push or hold onto the free or cut-off side of the
workpiece.
Slowly feed the workpiece rearward all the way through
the saw blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the
workpiece into the blade.
When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to
come to a complete stop before removing cut off piece
from table.

feed the workpiece slowly into the blade guard area and
until the workpiece touches the blade. If the blade guard
assembly contacts the blade, place the workpiece under
the blade guard assembly - but not touching the blade -
before starting the motor.
