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.
Sub-fence
This tool is equipped with the sub-fence. It should be posi-
tioned as shown in the figure.
CAUTION:
When performing left bevel cuts, flip the fence over to the
left position as shown in the figure. Otherwise, it will
contact the blade or a part of the tool, causing possible
serious injury to the operator.
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 all the way. If some part contacts the
vise, re-position the vise.
