OPERATION
5. Position the workpiece flat on the table with the edge
flush against the miter gauge. Let the blade build up to
full speed before feeding the workpiece into the blade.
6. Use two hands to slowly advance the workpiece and the
miter gauge toward the blade. Use the hand furthest from
the blade to keep the workpiece flush against the miter
gauge. Use the other hand to push the miter gauge and
workpiece toward the blade. Stand slightly to the side of
the wood as it contacts the blade to reduce the chance
of injury should kickback occur.
7. Continue to feed the workpiece into the blade until the
cut has been completed,

the blade and back toward you.
