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 (see Figure 63).

f 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 (see Figure
62).
