When making miter cuts of
35
degrees or more, to the side that the
vise
is
mounted, the
safety cover movement may be slightly obstructed by the
vise.
This only occurs when
the workpiece dimensions are more than
90
mm (3-1/2”) in width and
less
than 60 mm
(2-3/8“) in height, or
less
than
90
mm (3-1/2”) in width and
less
than 30 mm (1-3/16”)
in height.
If
this situation occurs, re-mount the
vise
on the other side of the tool’s base.
