Cutting Bowed Material
If workpiece is bowed or warped,
clamp it with the outside bowed
face toward the fence. Always make certain that there
is no gap between the workpiece, fence and table
along the line of cut. Bent or warped workpieces can
twist or rock and may cause binding on the spinning
saw blade while cutting (Figure 35).

Cutting Round or Irregularly
Shaped Material
For round material such as dowel
rods or tubing, always use a clamp
or a fixture designed to clamp the workpiece firmly
against the fence and table. Rods have a tendency to
roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and
pull the work with your hand into the blade (Figure 36).
