Special Cuts
NEVER MAKE ANY CUT UNLESS THE MATERIAL
IS SECURED ON THE TABLE AND AGAINST THE
FENCE.
ALUMINUM CUTTING
Certain workpieces, due to their size, shape or surface
finish, may require the use of a clamp or fixture to prevent
movement during the cut. Position the material so that
you will be cutting the thinnest cross section, as shown in
Figure 31. Figure 32 illustrates the wrong way to cut these
extrusions. Use a stick wax cutting lubricant when cutting
aluminum. Apply the stick wax directly to the saw blade
before cutting. Never apply stick wax to a moving blade.
The wax, available at most hardware stores and industrial
mill supply houses, provides proper lubrication and keeps
chips from adhering to the blade.
Be sure to properly secure workpiece. Refer to page 4
for
correct saw blade.
BOWED MATERIAL
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown
in Figure 33 and never like that shown in Figure 34.
Positioning the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the
blade near the completion of the cut.
Cutting Plastic Pipe or Other Round Material
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be
cut just like wood and CLAMPED OR HELD FIRMLY
TO THE FENCE TO KEEP IT FROM ROLLING. This is
extremely important when making angle cuts.
CUTTING LARGE MATERIAL
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too
large to fit beneath the blade guard. A little extra height
can be gained by rolling the guard up out of the way, as
shown in Figure 28. Avoid doing this as much as possible,
but if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the
bigger cut. NEVER TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD
THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING THIS SAW.
