Repetitive Crosscutting

Repetitive cutting is known as cutting a quantity of pieces

the same length without having to mark each piece.

• When making repetitive cuts from a long workpiece,

make sure it is supported,

WARNING" Never' use the rip fence as a length stop I

because the cutoff piece could bind between the i

fence and the blade causing a kickback. J

1. When making repetitive cuts, clamp a block of wood 3"

long to the table at desired length to act as a length

stop,,

I WARNING: To avoid kickback from twisting the I

I workpiece, when clamping the block, make sure

I that the end of the block is well in front of the saw-

I blade. Be sure it is clamped securely.

the blade has stopped and before cutting the next piece_

the width of the workpieceo Follow the same procedure as

you would for crosscutting.

in the table. Make sure it is locked,

hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head

with your left hand, and grip the lock knob with your

right hand.
