To make a 90˚ crosscut using the miter gauge:

1.

Adjust the miter gauge to the 90˚ position.

2.

Adjust the fence completely away from the
cutting operation.

3.

Position the miter gauge in one of the two
miter slots.

4.

Adjust the blade height so the highest saw
tooth protrudes approximately

workpiece.

Hold the workpiece against the miter gauge
and line up the cut with the blade.

products like plywood is performed by cutting par-
allel to the shortest side.

Turn on the saw and allow it to come to full
speed.

Hold the workpiece firmly against the face of
the miter gauge and ease it into the blade as
