Vertical vise
The vertical vise can be installed in two positions on either
the left or right side of the guide fence. Insert the vise rod into
the hole in the guide fence and tighten the screw on the back
of the guide fence to secure the vise rod.
The vertical vise can also be secured to the rod on the right
side of the sub-fence R.
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.
Horizontal vise (optional accessory)
The horizontal vise can be installed in two positions on either
the left or right side of the base. When performing 15° or
greater miter cuts, install the horizontal vise on the side
opposite the direction in which the turn base is to be turned.
By flipping the vise nut to the left, the vise is released, and
rapidly moves in and out. To grip the workpiece, push the
vise knob forward until the vise plate contacts the workpiece
and flip the vise nut to the right. Then turn the vise knob
clockwise to secure the workpiece.
The maximum width of workpiece which can be secured by
the horizontal vise is 200 mm (7-7/8).
When installing the horizontal vise on the right side of the
base, also use the sub-fence R to secure the workpiece
more firmly. Refer to the Sub-fence R section described on
previously for installing the sub-fence R.
