When ripping a long workpiece, place a support the same
height as the table surface behind the saw for the cut
work.
Turn the saw on.
Position the workpiece flat on the table with the edge
flush against the rip fence. Let the blade build up to full
speed before feeding the workpiece into the blade.
Once the blade has made contact with the workpiece, use
the hand closest to the rip fence to guide it. Make sure
the edge of the workpiece remains in solid contact with
both the rip fence and the surface of the table. If ripping
a narrow piece, use a push stick and/or push blocks to
move the piece through the cut and past the blade.
When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the
blade to come to a complete stop before removing the
workpiece.

WARNING:
Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and
working properly to avoid possible serious injury.

Lock the bevel locking lever.
Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.
Set the miter fence to the desired angle and tighten the
lock knob.
Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning
on the saw.
Turn the saw on.
Let the blade build up to full speed before moving the
workpiece into the blade.
Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands on the miter
fence and feed the workpiece into the blade.
NOTE: The hand closest to the blade should be placed
on the miter fence lock knob and the hand farthest from
the blade should be placed on the workpiece.
When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the
blade to come to a complete stop before removing the
workpiece.
