WARNING:
• Clamp the workpiece as far towards the operator
as possible.
• Set the clamping position for cutting downstroke as
long as the thickness of the workpiece is not exceeding
the maximum downstroke cutting capacity (Fig. C2).
- The maximum downstroke cutting capacity is
marked by slot
-
Continue setting the clamping position as
described below.
• Always attemp to clamp the workpiece in a way to
minimize the number of teeth cutting through the
material (Fig. C4).
• Support long workpieces using a piece of wood
(Fig. C3). Do not clamp the cut off end
Vertical Clamp (Fig. C5, C6)
The vertical clamp 16 is used for upstroke cutting of wide and
irregular shaped materials (Fig. C5).

read on the scale 35
reference (Fig. C6).
3. Push the clamp lever
to lock the fence (Fig. C1).
4. If additional clamping is required, the angle of cut can be
further fixed in the 90° and 45° cross-cut positions.
a. Align the fence 7
order to fix the 90° or 45° cross-cut position (Fig. C6).
b. Place the pin
