SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

TO OPERATOR

WARNING:
Do not connect power cord
until the following
steps have been
satisfactorily completed:
a. READ CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS and the "SAFETY RULES
FOR POWER TOOLS" ON PAGE 2.
b. Examination and operating familiarity with ON-OFF
switch, elevation control, bevel control, miter gauge,
and rip fence.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the power
cord when removing the table insert,
changing the cutting tool, or making
adjustments.
1. The saw should be bolted down if there is any tendency
to tip over or move during normal operations. The
saw table should be approximately
36-inches above
the floor.
2. The saw work area should have adequate overhead,
non-glare light and adequate surrounding work space.
3. The saw should be positioned so neither the operator
nor a casual observer is forced to stand in line with
the saw blade.
4. Kickbacks can cause Serious injury. A "kickback" occurs
when a part of the workplece binds on the saw blade or
binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other
fixed object, rises from the table, and is thrown toward
the operator. Kickbacks are usually caused by one or
more of the following conditions:
a. Failure to use a spreader when ripping, or failure to
maintain the spreader.in alignment with the saw
blade.
b. Improperly conditioned (dull) saw that permits the
material to pinch on the out-feed edge of the saw
and rise from the table.
c. Failure to determine that the rip fence and the saw
blade are parallel to one another.
d. Ripping wood that has a twisted grain, does not
have a straight edge to guide along the fence, or
wood that is twisted or not flat (which may rock on
the table and pinch the blade).
e. Confining the cut-off piece when ripping or crosscutting.
f. Ripping by applying the feed force to the section
of the workplece that will become the cut-off (free)
piece (feed force when ripping should always be
applied between the saw blade and the fence -- use
push stick for narrow or short work).
g. Releasing workplece before operation is complete;
not pushing the workpiece all the way past the saw
blade.
5. Injury from kickbacks can be prevented
by:

or minimized

a. Avoiding any of the causes noted above;
b. Making sure by trial before starting the cut that the
anti-kickback pawls will stop the kickback once it
has started (sharpen all points if they do not);
c. Keeping your face and body always out of line of
possible kickbacks, including turning the switch ON
and OFF.
d. Always wearing safety goggles.
e. Never use both the rip fence and miter gauge during the same operation.

6. A large proportion of tilting arbor saw accidents is
caused by dull, badly set, improperly filed cutting tools,
by gum or resin adhering to cutting tools and by fence
misallgnment (out of parallel) with the saw blade. Such
conditions cause the material to stick, jam, stall the saw,
or kick-back at the operator. Cracked saw blades should
be discarded immediately. A saw blade can become
cracked if it wobbles or if it is not in balance. NEVER
ATTEMPT TO FREEA STALLED SAW BLADE WITHOUT
TURNING THE SAW OFF. Avoid potential injury by
proper cutting tool and machine maintenance.
7. Gloves should not be worn while operating the saw.
Loose flowing garments, jewelry (rings, wrist watches,
etc.), and neckties should never be worn. Long sleeves
should be rolled to above the elbows.
8. To protect your eyes, always wear safety goggles. In
addition, wear a face shield to protect against flying
particles. Ear protectors (ear plugs or muffs) should be
used during extended periods of operation.
9. Provide proper support for the workpiece, based on its
size and the type of operation to be performed; hold
the work firmly against the gauge or guide. Use a push
stick when ripping short work (under 6-inches long), or
narrow work. A push block or miter gauge hold-down
should be used when dadoing or molding.
10. Never use a length stop (such as the fence when crosscutting) on the free end or edge of the workpiece. Never
hang onto or touch the free end of workpiece, or a free
piece that is cut off, while power is "ON" and/or the
sawblade is rotating. In short, to guard against kickbacks or other potential accidents, the cut-off piece in
any thru-sawing operation must never be confined -- it
must be allowed to move laterally. Never use the rip
fence when cross-cuftlng, or the miter gauge when
ripping.
11. Cross-cutting operations are more conveniently worked
and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is
attached to the miter gauge using the holes provided.
12. Do not leave a long board unsupported so the spring
of the board causes it to shift on the table. A support
should be used to catch the end of the board behind the
blade.
13. Never climb on or near the saw. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidently contacted. Never leave the saw with power on,
or before the cutting tool has come to a complete stop.
14. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions,
a sudden slip could cause a hand to move into
blade or other cutting tool. Never reach in back
cutting tool with either hand to hold down the
piece.

where

of the
work-

15. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates
toward you when standing in normal operating position.
Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor
nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting tool as low
as possible for the operation being performed. Keep
all guards in place whenever possible.
16. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for
an operating speed in excess of the design speed of the
saw. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than
the diameter for which the saw was designed. For
greatest safety and efficiency when ripping, use the
maximum diameter blade for which thesaw is designed,
since under these conditions the spreader is nearest
the blade.
(Continued on Next Page)

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

TO OPERATOR

17. Adjust table inserts flush with, or slightly
table top.

21. Never perform any operation "freehand."
This term
means feeding the stock into the saw blade or other
cutting tool without using the miter gauge, rip fence,
taper jig, or some other device which prevents rotating
or twisting of the workpiece during the operation.

below, the

18. For operations which do not permit the use of a spreader, serious consideration should be given to the use of
jigs or fixtures to hold the work so the hands of the operator are removed a safe distance from the point of
operation.

22. Never turn your saw "ON" before clearing the table
of all objects (tools, scraps of wood, etc.) except the
workpiece and related feed or support devices for the
operation planned.

19. The use of abrasive or cut-off wheels, or wire wheels
can be dangerous and is not recommended. (Abrasive
or cut-off wheels are ,used to saw many different materials including metals, stone, and glass.)

23. Safety is a combination of operator common sense and
alertness at all times when the saw is being used.

20. Objects can be thrown upward toward the operator by
the back of the blade if proper operating procedures
are not followed. ?his usually occurs when a small loose
piece of wood or other object works around to the rear
of the revolving blade. It can usually be avoided by removing all loose pieces from the table immediately
after they are cut off, using a long stick of wood, and
by keeping the guard and spreader in place at all times.
Use extra caution when the guard assembly is removed
for dadoing or molding, and replace the guard as soon
as that operation is completed.

24. Do not cycle the motor switch on and off rapidly, as this
may cause the saw blade to loosen. In the event this
should ever occur, allow the saw blade to come to a
complete stop and retighten the arbor nut normally, not
excessively.

CAUTION: This saw is wired for operation
on 240 volts only. Connect to a 15 ampere
branch circuit protected by a 15 ampere
time delay or circuit saver fuse or circuit
breaker.

Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect
connections, overloading, reduced input voltage (which
results when small size wires are used in the supply
circuit) or when the supply circuit is extremely long.
Always check connections, load and supply circuit when
the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire sizes
and lengths with the table in the next paragraph. Replace or repair damaged or worn cord immediately.

WIRE

SIZES

The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent overheating and motor burn-out, use the table below to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension cord. All
cords should be 3-wire, grounded.

WARNING:
Do not permit fingers to contact the terminals of power or motor plugs
when installing or removing the plug to
or from a live power source. Hold the plug
as shown in figure 3.

NOTE: For circuits of greater length, the wire
size must be increased proportionately in order
to deliver ample voltage to the saw motor.

2. After cooling to a safe operating temperature, the overload protector can be closed manually by pushing in the
red button on the motor terminal box cover. If the red
button will not snap into place immediately, the motor
is still too hot and must be allowed to cool for a while
longer.
3. As soon as the red button will snap into running position,
the saw may be started and operated normally by
pulling the saw switch to the "'ON" position.
4. Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result
if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit is fused
with a fuse other than those recommended. Do not use
a fuse of greater capacity without consulting the power
company.
5. Although the motor is designed for operation on the
voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the nameplate voltage.

ASSEMBLY

AND

ADJUSTMENTS

1. Remove the "'loose" parts; clean the parts and the
basic saw assembly thoroughly. (See figure 1.) Items
having a rust-preventive coating, (saw table, etc.) may
be cleaned with a cloth saturated with kerosene. Wipe
other parts with a clean, dry cloth.
CAUTION: Before attempting
to use the
saw, assemble it as outlined in the following instructions. All adjustments are carefully checked prior to shipping the saw.
However_ rough handling in transit may
necessitate some readjustments.
2. Assemble the basic saw assembly and check all adjustments as outlined in the following instructions:

feners. (See figure 5.) Using parts from the correct
loose parts bag, assemble the legs to the saw base
with the sixteen 5/16-18x5/8
inch screws and
5/16-18 nuts. (See figure 6.) Leave these screws
loose in order to facilitate mounting the stiffeners.
All four leg stiffeners are identical and since the
distance on the sides is greater than the distance
on the ends, the leg stiffeners used on the sides
should be attached at outer holes while the
stiffeners at the ends should be attached at inner
holes. (See figure 6.)
(2) Assemble the four stiffeners with sixteen 1/420 x 1/2 inch screws and 1/4-20 inch nuts. After
stiffeners are all in place, tighten all screws
securely. Install

(1) Install table extensions on each side of the table
with four 5/16-18x 1-1/4 inch screws, 5/16-18
inch nuts and 5/16 inch Iockwashers in each
extension (See figure 7.) These extensions are
provided with multiple holes on both sides (front
and back) to make them adaptable to various

table mountings. Position the extensions to the
sides of the table so the four holes in the table
and the extensions are aligned when the table
and extensions are correctly mated. An extension
rod support should be located under each end
screw at left-hand side of the saw. (See figures
7 and 8.) Leave screws snug (not tight). Be sure
to position the extension rod supports as shown
in figure 8.
(2) Place a small steel scale across saw table edge
and table extensions edge and, using the rubber
mallet, tap extensions slightly up or down (or
forward and rearward) until the surface of each
table extension is even with surface of table top
and front edge of table. (See figure 9.) Tighten
nuts on all attaching bolts securely and recheck
to make sure tightening nuts did not permit extension to move.
c. Installation of fence guide bar, rack and switch
box support. (See figure 10.)
(1) Insert a 1/4-20 x 2 inch, slotted round-head screw
through the center hole of guide bar and through
a spacer. The guide bar should be positioned so
the scale faces upward, and is readable from the
front of the saw. (See figure 10.)

Fence and Extension.

NOTE: This adjustable, auxiliary fence and extension was designed for use on the left-hand
side of the saw (when facing the saw at operator's position).
(1) Attach the table extension support (1, figure 12)
to outside edge of left-hand table extension with

two 5/16-18 x 3/4 inch screws (5), 5/16-18 inch
nuts and 5/16 inch Iockwashers in position as
shown in figure 12. Do not tighten the screws fully.
(2) Slide the extension slide rod (2) through each
rod support (3) and through the hole in each end
of the support (I). It will be necessary to slide
these rods from under the table because of the
retaining rings.
(3) Attach the sliding extension (9) to each rod (2)
with a 5/16-18 x 3/4 inch screw (5) and 5/16 inch
Iockwasher in the end of each rod. Do not tighten.
This extension should be positioned as shown in
figure 12.
(4) Move the end of sliding extension in. Level the
sliding extension (9) with the table extension.
Tighten 5/16-18 x 3/4 screws (5) in the extension
slide rods (2). Move sliding extension out and
tighten 5/16-18 x 3/4 screws (5) attaching the
support (1) to the extension. If binding is experienced, tap the rod supports (3) in the proper
direction to relieve interference.
(5) Position an extension clamp (7) over each rod
and through the mating hole in support (1). Secure
each extension clamp with a wing nut (8).
(6) Attach the auxiliary fence (6) with the wing nuts
(8), as shown in figure 12.
e. Adjust the Table Insert. (See figures 13 and 14.)

with a 3/32 inch hex-"L'" wrench until table
and insert surfaces are even. (See figure 14.)
(b) Make sure that ends of all four set screws are
making contact with table recess by pressing
on the insert at each set screw location. If the
insert "rocks" when pressed at any of the
four screw locations, adjust set screws until
the "'rocking" is eliminated.
3. Adjust the 90 ° and 45 ° Stops.
a. Checking and Adjusting the 0 ° Position
(1) Loosen the elevation lock by pulling out the
elevation lock knob and rotate the elevation crank
to raise the saw blade to the deepest cut position.
(See figure 15.) Push elevation lock in.
(2) Loosen the clamp knob and rotate the tilt crank
counterclockwise until it will rotate no farther.

Figure 16

(3) With the saw blade in position described above,
tighten the clamp knob to secure the tilt mechanism.
(4) Place a square on the saw table and against saw
blade. (See figure 16.) The blade should be at 90
degrees (perpendicular) to the table top surface.
(5) If the blade is not square with the table top, loosen
the clamp knob (figure 15) and rotate the tilt
crank to move the mechanism off the 90 ° stop.
This can be accomplished by rotating the tilt crank
until the pointer on tilt scale indicates approximately 10 degrees. Rotate the 90 ° stop screw
in table top with a 3/16-inch hex-"L" wrench to
produce an approximate correction. (See figure
17.) Rotate the tilt crank until the saw blade is
stopped by the 90 ° stop screw and recheck with
the square for an exact 90 ° position of the saw
blade. Continue these trial settings until the saw
blade stops at exactly 90 ° with the table top.

(6) When the saw blade is adjusted squarely with
the table top, check the pointer on the tilt gauge,
which should be positioned at exactly "0" (zero)
degrees. (See figure 15.) If not at zero, loosen
the attaching screw and align pointer with the
"0" mark, then tighten the screw.

b. Pull out the elevation lock knob (figure 20) to release
the elevating mechanism and, using the elevation
crank, position the saw blade for the deepest cut in
preparation for aligning the saw blade with table
grooves. Push in on the elevation lock knob.

(1) Loosen the clamp knob and rotate the tilt crank
clockwise until it will turn no farther. Tighten the
clamp knob. At this point, the acute angle made
between the saw blade and table top should be
45 degrees. (See figure 18.) The base of a combination square (or protractor) can be used effectively for this measurement.

c. Loosenthe clamp knob, and rotate the tilt crank clockwise until it stops(pointer at 0°). (See figure 20.) This
will position the saw blade vertically. Tighten the
clamp knob.

(2) If the angle between the saw blade and table
top is not 45 °, loosen the clamp knob and rotate
the tilt crank counterclockwise until the pointer
on tilt gauge indicates approximately 40 ° . Rotate
the 45 ° stop screw in table top with a 3/16-inch
hex-"L" wrench to produce an approximate correction. (See figure 17.) Rotate the tilt crank until
the. saw blade is stopped by the 45 ° stop screw
and recheck for the exact 45 ° blade position.
Continue these trial settings until the saw blade
stops at exactly 45 ° with the table top.

d. Make a pencil mark on the saw tooth that is just above

table groove, the scale will just "slide" into the gap
between the pencil point and blade. If the scale will
not enter this gap, or is loose in the check shown in
figure 22, an adjustment of the table trunnlons is
required. Proceed as follows:
(1) Tighten the clamp knob firmly (figure 20) and
loosen the two screws which secure each table
trunnion (front and rear) to the table. (See figure
23.) It will be necessary to reach these screws
from underneath the table.

(2) Shift the two trunnlons until the preceding measurements are equal and tighten all four trunnion
screws. Recheck measurements (figures 21 and
22) to make sure tightening the screws did not
alter the setting.

5. Check and Adjust Rip Fence
Your Craftsman Rip Fence has been designed to provide
accuracy, reliability and long life. In order for your fence
to work properly it is imperative that it be adjusted
accurately. The fence is adjusted at the factory, but due
to shipping hazards and slight tolerance build-up between individual saws, it is sometimes necessary that
your fence be adjusted to your particular saw. Therefore,
check your fence and adjust it (if necessary) as outlined
in the instructions that follow:

operation at various points along the rack.
(6) Move the rip fence carefully across the central
portion of table, by rotating the gear knob, to
determine if the teeth engage the rack properly
at the center division. The fence should pass over
the center division of the rack smoothly. If any
binding or resistance is noticed it may be necessary to loosen the guide bar attaching screws at
one end and at the middle, and shift the rack
enough to properly space the teeth at the center
division. Several trials may be necessary.

(4) Push the lock handle down in "locked" position
and, using a 1/8 inch hex-"L" wrench inserted
into the fence pawl set screw from underneath the
saw table, tighten the set screw finger tight. (See
figure 30.) Do not use wrench or pliers--finger
tight only.

(10) After adjusting the fence on the saw table, move
it to one of the table extensions and re-check the
adjustment, as even the slightest difference in
length between the extensions and saw table
would affect the fence adjustment to some degree.
If one is slightly shorter than the other it would
be evidenced by a lighter "feel" of the fence
lever when locking it. If a difference in "feel" is
apparent, readjust the fence on the shorter member and it will, in turn, lock effectively on the
longer member.

(5) Raise the lock handle, push the fence to one side
(off square) at the rear. Then lock the fence with
the lock handle, while watching to make sure it
"'corrects" itself. Repeat this operation two or
more times. The fence should "'correct'" itself each
time it is locked.

d. Aligning

(6) Raise the lock handle and align the fence with
the miter groove (at the front end of the groove)
as shown in figure 26. Push the lock handle down.

(2) Position the rip fence on the right-hand side of
the saw blade with the fence channel one-inch
from the blade and lock the fence. Be sure to
use one of the teeth bent (set) to the right of
blade. Measure from this to the fence, since this
determines your width of cut. This distance should
be measured accurately with a scale.

(8) Check

for "automatic correcting" by releasing
the lock lever, shifting the fence off square at
the rear, then locking it. The fence should square

for the full length of the fence. If it is aligned at
the front but out of alignment at the rear, loosen
the two hex-head screws on top of the channel
near the front (figure 31) and tap the channel at
the rear with one hand until it is aligned with

block until the stop pin can be pushed solidly into
its detent. Hold the indicator block aligned with
the rod assembly and the stop pin seated firmly
in the detent and tighten the two screws.
(3) Loosen the lock handle and recheck for accuracy
with the square. (Make certain the stop pin is
fully seated.) Tighten the lock handle and readjust
if necessary.
(4) After completing the above adjustment, loosen
the pointer attaching screw, set pointer at "0"

recheck for accuracy. If the plastic window
cannot be shifted enough to provide this alignmerit, loosen the screws that secure the guidebar scale to the guide-bar at its ends, shift
the scale slightly and tighten the screws. Then
proceed to adjust the plastic window as described above.
(c) When the fence is correctly adjusted and
moved to any position at the right of the saw
blade, the scale will indicate the width of the
desired cut. Make several trial settings and
check by measuring with a scale from the
fence to the blade.
NOTE: When properly adjusted, the indicators
may be used for most operations, thus eliminating the need for actual measurements except
for extreme requirements. When sighting the
indicator, always use the system shown in figure

7. Install and Adjust the Saw Guard Assembly.
Position the saw blade for deepest cut and against the
90 ° stop, (square with table top).
The guard assembly (8, figure 1) consists of a clear
plastic blade guard, spreader and anti-kickback. The
spreader must be aligned with the saw blade, which is
accomplished as follows:
a. Installatlan
af Saw Guard Assembly.
(See figures 35 and 36.)
(1) Loosenthe lock handle on spreader support, slide
the lower end of the spreader support on the
spreader rod (attached to end of spreader bar).
(See figures 35 and 36.)
(2) Push the spreader support onto the spreader rod
until the groove in spreader support is snug against
the groove pin. Tighten the lock handle. (See
figure 36.)

6. Check and Adjust the Miter Gauge
NOTE: This gauge was set correctly at the factory, but rough handling during shipping might
have disturbed the setting. To assure maximum
accuracy the "0 °° (zero) degree stop should be
checked and adjusted (if required) as follows:

b. Alignment af Saw Guard Assembly.
(See figures 35 and 36.)
(1) Raisethe plastic guard up to expose the spreader.

(2)Place

a square against the spreader and saw
table top. (See figure 36.) If the spreader bar
is not positioned at 90 ° with the table, loosen
the two clamping screws (figure 35) and rotate
the spreader bar until the spreader is square with
the table (figure 36.) Tighten the two clamping screws (figure 35) and recheck to make sure
tightening the screws did not change the adjustment. More than one trial may be required.

(3) Sight along the spreader and saw blade to check'
for alignmenl;. An alternate method is to hold a
straightedge against each side of saw blade and
notice whether or not the spreader is centered
in the gap thus formed between the straightedges.
(4) If the spreader is too far to the right or left, loosen
the hex-head set screw in outer end of spreader
bar and slide the spreader rod in or out of the
hole in the spreader bar until correct alignment
is obtained.
(5) Rotate the plastic

6. Rip Fence (1, figure 42). When the lock handle (2,
figure 42) is released (raised), the rip fence (1) may
be moved toward, or away from, the saw by hand.
Pushing the lock handle (2) down into locked position
will automatically align the rip fence parallel to the
table groove. This alignment correction will occur at
the front of saw table. Therefore, it may be necessary
to make more than one setting in order to produce the
exacf distance desired between saw blade and fence.
Keep the saw table and rip fence clean, as saw dust
may prevent the fence from assuming proper alignment when tightened.

CAUTION: Under no circumstances should
a blade with a diameter greater than 12
inches be used with this saw.

3. Tilt Crank (3, figure 39). Located on front panel behind the elevation crank to control the angle of tilt.
The saw blade can be tilted from 0 ° to 45 °, as indicated on the TILT SCALE (5). If the angle of cut (tilt)
must be extremely accurate, the angle of the saw blade
should be checked wffh a protractor, or with a board
known to be cut at the exact angle required.

This Craftsman Saw is a fine machine and should be given
the best of care. If kept clean and properly lubricated, it
will provide many years of trouble-free service. The following instructions should be carefully observed at all times.

4. If the saw is to be left standing for some time, particularly in damp climates, the table top surface should be
coated with light engine oil or Sears "Stop Rust". Either
material may be easily wiped off with a cloth before
using the saw. Treat any unpainted parts and surfaces
with Sears "Stop Rust". ("Stop Rust" is available at any
Sears Retail Stores or Catalog Order House.)

1. Tilt worm, elevating worm and gears are covered with.
grease at the factory and should be checked occasionally
for proper lubrication.

NOTE: The aluminum table extensions may be
adequately protected by applying a heavy
coat of automobile or furniture wax. The wax
also enables boards to slide more easily across
the table extensions.

Clean the worm and gear teeth with kerosene or similar
solvent and repack lightly with cup grease or automotive chassis lubricant. (See figure 43.)
2. The saw motor bearings have been packed at the factory
with proper lubricant and require no additional lubrication. Other parts requiring lubrication should be oiled
frequently with SAE No. 20 or No. 30 engine oil. The
following parts should be lubricated regularly. (Refer
to exploded view drawing for the following locations,
if not apparent.)

5. Attention should be given to moving parts in the rip

CROSSCUTTING

CLAMP

is known

as cutting

wood

across

the

grain, at 90 °, or square with both the edge and the flat side
of the wood. This is done with the miter gage set at "'0".

The miter gage may be used in either of the grooves in the
table. Make sure it is locked.
When using the miter gage in the LEFT hand groove, hold
the workpiece
firmly
against the miter gage head with your
left hand, and grip the lock handle with your right
... or
use Hold-Down
Clamp
(Optional
Accessory)
(See figure
44.)

Figure 44

When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpiece
with your right hand and the Iockhandle with your left
hand.
RODS

REPETITIVE

CUTTING

REPETITIVE CUTTING is known as cutting a quantity of
pieces the same length without having to mark each piece.
Use the Stop Rods (Optional Accessory) for cutting pieces
6 inches long or longer. (See figure 45.)

Figure

When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 inches, DO
NOT USE THE RIP FENCE AS A LENGTH STOP ...
BECAUSE
THE
CUT OFF
PIECE COULD
BIND
BETWEEN THE FENCE AND BLADE AND CAUSE A
KICKBACK.

ALWAYS clamp a block of wood at least 2 inches thick and
3 inches long to the table to act as a length stop. (See figure
46.)

BLOCK

1. Slide the workpiece along the miter gage until it touches
the block ... hold it securely or clamp it with the
Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory),
2. Make the cut ... pull the workpiece back ... push the
cut off pieces off the table with a long push stick ..,
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PICK THEM UP AS THIS
COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS.

MITER CUTTING
CUT

Figure 46

'E)FF

MITER CUTTING is known as cutting wood at an angle
other than 90 ° with the edge of the wood. Follow the same
procedure as you would for crosscutting.

PIECES

Adjust the miter gage to the desired angle, and lock it.
The miter gage may be used in either of the grooves in the
table,
When using the miter gage in the LEFT hand groove, hold
the workpiece firmly against the miter gage head with your
left hand.
nnd grip the leek handle with your right ... or
use Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory). (See figur0

Adjust the blade to the desired angle.
Use the miter gage in the groove to the RIGHT of the blade
•.. NEVER TO THE LEFT. Hold the workpiece with your
right hand and the Iockhandle with your left hand ... or
use Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory), (See figure

48).
COMPOUND

MITER CUTTING

Compound miter cutting is a combination of miter cutting
and bevel crosscutting. The cut is made at an angle other
than 90 degrees to both the edg_ and the flat side of the
wood.
