OPERATION

MAKING A BEVEL RIP CUT

See Figure 49.

Try out this cut on a piece of scrap wood before

cutting your workpiece. Use a pushstick to move small

pieces of wood into and past the blade.

^ WARNING: Make sure the blade guard is

iowered over blade and is working properly to

prevent possible injury.

■ Set the blade angle by loosening the bevel lock

handle and turning the bevel handwheel. Retighten

the bevel lock handle.

WARNING: When making a bevel rip cut, the

rip fence must be on the right side of the blade.

Otherwise the fence could trap the workpiece,

possibly causing kickback and resulting in injury.

■ Attach the rip fence on the 'right side of the blade at

the correct distance from the blade for the cut.

■ Place a support the same height as the top of the

saw table behind the saw for the cut work.

yv WARNING: Never stand directly in the line of

cut. Stand to the side to reduce the chance of

injury should kickback occur.

■ Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before

turning on the saw. Insert the key and lift the switch

to the ON position. Let the blade obtain full speed

before feeding the workpiece into the blade.
