9. Exact-I-Cut
The "yellow" plastic disk embedded in the table in front
of the sawblade, is provided for marking the location of
the "sawcut" (kert) on the workpiece
Check disk location: if it is above table surface, place a
piece of hardwood on top of it and tap it down with a
hammer.
Marking the Exact-l-Cut:
A With blade 90° (square to table) and miter gauge in
left groove, cross cut a piece of wood holding the
wood firmly against miter gauge.
B Pull miter gauge back until freshly cut edge of wood
is over disk. Using a sharp pencil, mark a line on
disk at freshly cut edge of wood
C With miter gauge in right hand groove, follow same
procedure and mark another line on disk
D These lines indicate the "path" of the cut (kerr) made
by the sawblade.
E When cutting the workpiece, line up mark on work-
piece with line on disk
Use the hold-down clamp (optional accessory) on the
miter gauge for greater accuracy
