Special Cuts

Cutting bowed material and round material are only
two examples of special cuts.
Cutting Bowed Material
WARNING
! If workpiece is bowed or warped,
clamp it with the outside bowed face
toward the fence. Always make certain that there is
no gap between the workpiece, fence and table
along the line of cut. Bent or warped workpieces can
twist or rock and may cause binding on the spinning
saw blade while cutting (Figure 1).
Cutting Round or Irregularly
Shaped Material
WARNING
For round material such as dowel
!
rods or tubing, always use a clamp
or a fixture designed to clamp the workpiece firmly
against the fence and table. Rods have a tendency to
roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and
pull the work with your hand into the blade (Figure 2).
