Securing workpiece
WARNING:
It is extremely important to always secure the workpiece
properly and tightly with the vise. Failure to do so can
cause the tool to be damaged and/or the workpiece to
be destroyed. PERSONAL INJURY MAY ALSO
RESULT. Also, after a cutting operation, DO NOT raise
the blade until the blade has come to a complete stop.
CAUTION:
When cutting long workpieces, use supports that are as
high as the top surface level of the turn base. Do not rely
solely on the vertical vise and/or horizontal vise to
secure the workpiece.
Thin material tends to sag. Support workpiece over its
entire length to avoid blade pinch and possible
KICKBACK.
Vertical vise
The vertical vise can be installed in two positions on either
the left or right side of the guide fence or the holder assembly
(optional accessory). Insert the vise rod into the hole in the
guide fence or the holder assembly and tighten the screw to
secure the vise rod.
Position the vise arm according to the thickness and shape
of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by tightening the
screw. If the screw to secure the vise arm contacts the guide
fence, install the screw on the opposite side of vise arm.
Make sure that no part of the tool contacts the vise when
lowering the handle fully and pulling or pushing the carriage
all the way. If some part contacts the vise, re-position the
vise.
Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the turn
base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting position
and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.
CAUTION:
The workpiece must be secured firmly against the turn
base and guide fence with the vise during all operations.
