adjustment knob (2).
2. Measure from the tip of the blade to the desired dis-
tance. Position the straight edge parallel to the blade
at that distance.
3. Clamp the straight edge to the table.
4. Recheck your measurements using the workpiece to
be cut and make sure the straight edge is secure.
5. Position the workpiece against the blade and place
the blade guard foot against the top surface of the
workpiece.
6. Secure the blade guard foot in place by tightening the-
height adjustment knob.
