LONG WORKPIECE
WORKPIECE SUPPORTS
OPERATION
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always keep your hands
outside the no hands zone and at least 3 in. (76.2 mm)
from blade. Never perform any cutting operation free-
hand (without securing workpiece against the fence). The
blade could grab the workpiece if it slips or twists.
■ Slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece.
■ Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to stop
rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece. Wait
until the electric brake stops blade from turning before
removing the workpiece from the miter table.
■ Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting
operation just to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
■ Grasp the saw handle firmly then squeeze the switch
trigger. Allow several seconds for the blade to reach
maximum speed.
SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES
See Figure 25.
Long workpieces need extra supports. Supports should be
placed along the workpiece so it does not sag. The support
should let the workpiece lay flat on the base of the saw and
work table during the cutting operation. Use the optional
work clamp or a C-clamp to secure the workpiece.
