Securing workpiece

WARNING:

•

It is extremely important to always secure the
workpiece properly and tightly with the vise. Failure
to do so can cause the tool to be damaged and/or
the workpiece to be destroyed. PERSONAL
INJURY MAY ALSO RESULT. Also, after a cutting
operation, DO NOT raise the blade until the blade
has come to a complete stop.

CAUTION:

•

When cutting long workpieces, use supports that
are as high as the top surface level of the turn base.
Do not rely solely on the vertical vise and/or
horizontal vise to secure the workpiece.
Thin material tends to sag. Support workpiece over
its entire length to avoid blade pinch and possible
KICKBACK.

Sub-fence

This tool is equipped with the sub-fence which should
ordinarily be positioned as shown in the figure.

However, when performing left bevel cuts, set it to the left
position as shown in the figure.

CAUTION:

•

When performing left bevel cuts, flip the fence over
to the left position as shown in the figure.
Otherwise, it will contact the blade or a part of the
tool, causing possible serious injury to the operator.

Sub-fence R (optional accessory)

The sub-fence R can be installed on the right side of the
guide fence. Insert the rods of the sub-fence R into the
holes in the guide fence. Tighten the screws which come
with the sub-fence R to secure the sub-fence R.

CAUTION:

•

When performing right bevel cuts, never use the
sub-fence R. It will contact the blade or a part of the
tool, causing possible serious injury to the operator.

Vertical vise

The vertical vise can be installed in two positions on
either the left or right side of the guide fence or the base.
Insert the vise rod into the hole in the guide fence or the
base and tighten the screw on the back of the guide
fence to secure the vise rod.

Position the vise arm according to the thickness and
shape of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by tight-
ening the screw. If the screw to secure the vise arm con-
tacts the guide fence, install the screw on the opposite
side of vise arm. Make sure that no part of the tool con-
tacts the vise when lowering the handle fully and pulling
or pushing the carriage all the way. If some part contacts
the vise, re-position the vise.
