COMPOUND MITER CROSSCUTTING (FIG. Y)
This sawing operation is combining a miter angle with a
bevel angle.
Always work to the right side of the blade during
this type of cut. The miter gauge (3) must be in the
right side groove because the bevel angle may
cause the blade guard to interfere with the cut if
used on the left side groove.

USING WOOD FACING ON THE RIP FENCE (FIG. AA)
When performing some special cutting operations, add a
wood facing (1) to the side of the rip fence (2).
1 . Use a smooth straight 3/4” thick wood board (1) that
is as long as the rip fence.
2. Attach the wood facing to the fence with wood
screw (3) through the hole in the fence. A wood
fence should be used when ripping material such as
thin paneling to prevent the material from catching
between the bottom of the fence and the table.
