Compound Miter Cutting - Delta RS830 Manual De Instrucciones

COMPOUNd MITER CUTTINg

To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect the machine from the power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups, or when making repairs. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
Use caution when starting the cut to
prevent binding of the guard against the workpiece
resulting in damage to the saw and possible personal
injury.
Before connecting the radial arm saw to
the power source or operating the saw, always inspect
the guard and splitter for proper operation alignment
and clearance with the saw blade. Check the alignment
after each change of bevel angle.
Compound miter cutting is performed the same as miter
cutting except that the saw blade is tilted to the desired
angle on the bevel scale and clamped for a bevel cut. See
Fig. 60 for an illustration of the compound miter cut.
RIPPINg
To reduce the risk of injury, the workpiece must never be fed into the outfeed end of the blade guard
or personal injury may result.
To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect the machine from the power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups, or when making repairs. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
NEVER touch the "free end" of the workpiece or a "free Piece" that is cut off while the power is "ON"
and/or the saw blade is rotating. The piece may contact the blade resulting in a thrown workpiece and possible injury.
Keep the saw blade guard, splitter, and anti-kickback teeth in place and operating properly. Keep teeth
sharp. If teeth are not operational, return your unit to the nearest authorized delta service center for repair. The splitter
must be in alignment with the saw blade and the teeth must stop a kickback once it has started. Check their action
before ripping by pushing the wood under the anti-kickback teeth. The teeth must prevent the wood from being pulled
toward the front of the saw.
A rip fence should ALWAYS be used for ripping operations to prevent loss of control and personal injury.
NEVER perform a ripping operation freehand. ALWAYS be sure the fence is locked down.
IMPORTANT: In certain applications, you may need to use two push sticks, and/or featherboards.
Keep all push sticks, featherboards, etc. handy
so that you can reach them without having to get near the
blade.
Ripping involves making a lengthwise cut through a board
along the grain. Clamp the track arm at "0" on the miter scale.
Position and clamp the yoke so that the blade is parallel to the
fence in either the in-rip or out-rip position. When feeding the
workpiece, make sure that one edge rides against the fence
with the flat side resting on the table. Lower the guard
on the in-feed side until it almost touches the workpiece
(Fig. 61) to act as a holddown. Adjust the splitter and anti-
kickback fingers (A) Fig. 61 as described under the section
"AdJUSTINg THE SPLITTER ANd ANTI-KICKBACK
FINgERS" in this manual. Keep your hands well away from,
and to the side of the blade. When ripping narrow work, always use a push stick (Fig. 62) to push the work between the fence
and blade.
The workpiece must have one straight edge to follow the fence. If the board is bowed, place the hollow side down.
Securely tighten the cuttinghead clamp knob for all ripping operations.
Never feed the workpiece into the outfeed end of the blade guard.
