Operation
WARNING
Always make sure the Crosscut Station is secured to prevent movement while cutting.
Use the procedures in this section to begin using your Crosscut Station.
The following examples show placement for a left blade saw.
Sure-Grip™ feet help to hold Crosscut Station in place while cutting. If
a stronger hold is needed, you can affix the station to your work bench
using two screws (not provided) and attaching through the holes in the
side tracks, as shown by the arrows on the right.
Make your Kerf Line Cut
a. Before you make your kerf line, set the saw cut depth to 2" (just enough to score the bottom cut surface of the
cutting base (A)).
b. Align the base of your saw to the rails behind the front blade guard actuator board (H).
c. Start your saw, and while keeping your saw flat to the guide rails, allow the front blade guard actuator board
(H) to engage the blade guard while making a cut through it.
WARNING
Do not try to lower the saw into the cut by using one hand to open the blade guard. Doing so could
result in a saw kick back and serious injury.
ATTENTION
Stop the saw and allow the blade to come to a stop once the center of the saw blade has cut
through the Sure-Cut™ back board (E). Pushing well beyond the rails can cause a widening of your kerf line (1)
and could affect your cut accuracy. See the images below for the proper stopping point as noted by the X symbol.
