feeding. If the workpiece is bent or twisted, dangerous
kickbacks may occur.
• NEVER withdraw the workpiece while the blade is run-
ning. If you must withdraw the workpiece before com-
pleting a cut, first switch the tool off while holding the
workpiece firmly. Wait until the blade has come to a
complete stop before withdrawing the workpiece. Fail-
ure to do so may cause dangerous kickbacks.
• NEVER remove cut-off material while the blade is run-
ning.
• NEVER place your hands or fingers in the path of the
saw blade. Be especially careful with bevel cuts.
• Always secure the rip fence firmly, or dangerous kick-
backs may occur.
• Always use "work helpers" such as push sticks and
push blocks when cutting small or narrow workpieces,
or when the dado head is hidden from view while cut-
ting.

Work helpers

Push sticks, push blocks or auxiliary fence are types of
"work helpers". Use them to make safe, sure cuts without
the need for the operator to contact the blade with any
part of the body.
Push block (Fig. 36)
Use a 19 mm piece of plywood.
Handle should be in center of plywood piece. Fasten with
glue and wood screws as shown. Small piece 9.5 mm x 8
mm x 50 mm of wood must always be glued to plywood to
keep the blade from dulling if the operator cuts into push
block by mistake. (Never use nails in push block.)
Auxiliary fence (Fig. 37)
Make auxiliary fence from 9.5 mm and 19 mm plywood
pieces.
Wood facing (rip fence) (Fig. 38)
A wood facing should be used for operations when the
blade comes close to the rip fence. Wood facing for the rip
fence should be the same size as the rip fence. Make sure
the bottom of facing is flush with the table surface.
Ripping
CAUTION:
• When ripping, remove the miter gauge from the table.
• When cutting long or large workpieces, always provide
adequate support behind the table. DO NOT allow a
long board to move or shift on the table. This will cause
the blade to bind and increase the possibility of kick-
back and personal injury. The support should be at the
same height as the table.
1. Adjust the depth of cut a bit higher than the thickness
of the workpiece. (Fig. 39)
2. Position the rip fence to the desired width of rip and
lock in place by pivoting the grip. Before ripping, make
sure the rear end of the rip fence is secured firmly. If it
is not secured enough, follow the procedures in the
section titled "Installing and adjusting rip fence".
3. Turn the tool on and gently feed the workpiece into the
blade along with the rip fence.

(1) When the width of rip is 150 mm and wider, care-
fully use your right hand to feed the workpiece.
Use your left hand to hold the workpiece in posi-
tion against the rip fence. (Fig. 40)
(2) When the width of rip is 65 mm - 150 mm wide,
use the push stick to feed the workpiece. (Fig. 41)
(3) When the width of rip is narrower than 65 mm, the
push stick cannot be used because the push stick
will strike the blade guard. Use the auxiliary fence
and push block. Attach the auxiliary fence to the
rip fence with two "C" clamps. (Fig. 42)
Feed the workpiece by hand until the end is about
25 mm from the front edge of the table. Continue
to feed using the push block on the top of the aux-
iliary fence until the cut is complete. (Fig. 43)
Cross cutting
CAUTION:
• When making a crosscut, remove the rip fence from the
table.
• When cutting long or large workpieces, always provide
adequate support to the sides of the table. The support
should be at the same height as the table.
• Always keep hands away from path of blade.
Miter gauge (Fig. 44)
Use the miter gauge for the 4 types of cutting shown in the
figure.
CAUTION:
• Secure the knob on the miter gauge carefully.
• Avoid creep of workpiece and gauge by firm workhold-
ing arrangement, especially when cutting at an angle.
• NEVER hold or grasp the intended "cut-off" portion of
the workpiece.
• Always adjust the distance between the end of the
miter gauge and the saw blade not to exceed 15 mm.
Miter gauge positive stop (Fig. 45)
Miter gauge is provided with positive stops at 90°, 45°
right and left miter angles for quick setting of miter angles.
To set the miter angle, loosen the knob on the miter
gauge.
Raise the small plate on the miter gauge for free setting.
Turn the miter gauge to the desired miter angle. Return
the small plate on the miter gauge to the original position
and tighten the knob clockwise securely.
Use of miter gauge (Fig. 46)
Slide the miter gauge into the thick grooves in the table.
Loosen the knob on the gauge and align to desired angle
(0° to 60°). Bring stock flush up against fence and feed
gently forward into the blade.
Auxiliary wood facing (miter gauge)
(Fig. 47)
To prevent a long board from wobbling, fit the miter gauge
with an auxiliary fence board. Fasten with bolts/nuts after
drilling holes, but fasteners must not protrude from the
face board.
