Cutting repetitive lengths
► 1. Set plate 2. Holder 3. Screw
When cutting several pieces of stock to the same
length, ranging from 240 mm (9-29/64") to 400 mm
(15-3/4"), use of the set plate (optional accessory) will
facilitate more efficient operation. Install the set plate on
the holder (optional accessory) as shown in the figure.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either the
left or right side of the groove in the kerf board, and
while holding the workpiece from moving, move the
set plate flush against the end of the workpiece. Then
secure the set plate with the screw. When the set plate
is not used, loosen the screw and turn the set plate out
of the way.
NOTE:
• Use of the holder-rod assembly (optional acces-
sory) allows cutting repetitive lengths up to
2,200 mm (7.2 ft.) approximately.
