Crosscutting (Fig. Y) - Hitachi C 10FL Manual De Instrucciones

CROSSCUTTING (Fig. Y)

To prevent serious injury:
Do not allow familiarity or frequent use of your table
saw to cause careless mistakes. Remember that even
a careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a
severe injury.
Keep both hands away from the blade and the path of
the blade.
1. Remove the rip fence and place it in the "storage"
compartment of the table saw base.
2. Place the miter gauge either groove in the table top.
3. Adjust the blade height so it is 1/8" higher than the
top of the workpiece.
4. Hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge
with the blade path in line with the desired cut
location.
5. Start the saw and wait for the blade (1) to come up to
full speed.
6. Keep the workpiece (2) against the face of the miter
gauge (3) and flat against the table. Then slowly push
the workpiece through the blade. (Fig. Y)
7. Do not try to pull the workpiece back with the blade
turning. Turn the switch OFF, wait for the blade to
come to a complete stop, then carefully slide the
workpiece.

USING WOOD FACING ON THE MITER GAUGE (Fig. Z)
Slots are provided in the miter gauge for attaching an
auxiliary facing (1) to make it easier to cut very long or
short pieces. Select a suitable piece of smooth wood, drill
two holes through it and attach it to the miter gauge with
screws. Make sure the facing does not interfere with the
proper operation of the sawblade guard. When cutting
long workpieces, you can make a simple outfeed support
by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse.

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING (Fig. AA)
This cutting operation is the same as crosscutting except
the blade is at bevel angle other than 0°.
1. Adjust the blade (1) to the desired angle, and tighten
the blade bevel lock knob.
2. Always work to the left side of the blade. The miter
gauge (3) must be in the left side groove (2).

COMPOUND MITER CROSSCUTTING (Fig. BB)
This sawing operation is combining a miter angle with a
bevel angle.
1. Set the miter gauge (3) to the desired angle. Use only
the left side groove for this specific operation (2).
2. Set the blade (1) bevel to the desired angle.
3. Carefully push the miter gauge to begin the cutting
operation.

MITERING (Fig. CC)
This sawing operation is the same as crosscutting except
the miter gauge is locked at an angle other than 90°
1. Hold the workpiece (2) firmly against the miter
gauge (3).
2. Feed the workpiece slowly into the blade (1) to
prevent the workpiece from moving.
