WORKPIECE SUPPORT (FIG. V)
Long pieces need extra support. The support should
be placed under the workpiece. Keep your hands out
of the “no-hands” zone, positioned 7-1/4” or more
away from the blade. The support must let the
workpiece lay flat on the worktable during the cutting
operation.
NOTE: When mounted on a flat surface, the miter saw
table is 3-1/8 inches high.

AUXILARY WOOD FENCE (FIG. W)
When making multiple or repetitive cuts that result in
cut-off pieces of one inch or less, it is possible for the
saw blade to catch the cut-off piece and throw it out of
the saw or into the blade guard and housing, possibly
causing damage or injury. To minimize this an auxiliary
wood fence can be mounted to your saw.
Holes are provided in the saw fence to attach an
auxiliary wood fence. This fence is constructed of
straight auxiliary wood approximately 3/4 inch thick by
2-1/2 inches high by 18 inches long.
Attach the wood fence securely and make a full depth
cut to make a blade slot.
Check for interference between the wood fence and
the lower blade guard. Adjust if necessary.
NOTE: This auxiliary fence is used only with the saw
blade in the 0° bevel position (90° to the table). The
auxiliary wood fence must be removed when bevel
cutting.
