OPERATION
■ Remove miter fence, sliding miter table, and accessory
table.
■ Position the rip fence the desired distance from the left
side of the blade and lock down the handle.
■ Adjust the bevel angle to the desired setting.
■ Set the blade to the correct depth.
■ If ripping a piece larger than 36 in. long, place a support
the same height as the table surface behind the saw for
the cut work.
■ Turn the power switch to the on ( ) position.
■ Position the workpiece flat on the table with the edge flush
against the rip fence. Let the blade build up to full speed
before feeding the workpiece into the blade.
■ Using a push stick and/or push blocks, slowly feed the
workpiece toward the blade. Stand slightly to the side of
the wood as it contacts the blade to reduce the chance of
injury should kickback occur.
TO MAKE A BEVEL CROSS CUT
See Figure 39.
It is recommended that you place the piece to be saved on
the left side of the blade and that you make a test cut on
scrap wood.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and
working properly to avoid serious personal injury.

■ Move the bevel locking lever to the right for Angle mode.
Turn the blade adjustment handle until the bevel indicator
is at the desired angle. Push the bevel locking lever
securely to the left to lock the angle.
■ Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.
■ Loosen the adjusting clamp on the miter fence. Set the
miter fence to 90° with either the quick-stop or the miter
scale.
■ Make sure the miter fence will not contact the blade as
the wood feeds into the blade. Make a trial pass of the
miter table. The end of the miter fence should not contact
the blade. Loosen the adjusting clamp to move it away
from the blade if needed.
■ Place a support (the same height as saw table) behind
the saw for the cut work.
■ Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning
on the saw.
■ Let the blade build up to full speed before moving the
miter table to feed the workpiece into the blade.
■ Hold the work with both hands and push the miter table
to feed the work into the blade.
■ When the cut is made, turn the saw off ( ). Wait for the
blade to come to a complete stop before removing the
workpiece.
TO MAKE A BEVEL RIP CUT

The rip fence must be on the left side of the blade to avoid
trapping the wood and causing kickback. Placement of
the rip fence to the right of the blade will result in kickback
and the risk of serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and
working properly to reduce the risk of serious personal
