▶ Sawing with Straight Edge
Guide
For sawing large workpieces or straight
edges, a board or strip can be secured
with clamp C (sold separately) to the
workpiece as a straight edge guide. The
footplate of the circular saw can be
guided alongside the straight edge guide
33 (Fig. 28).
•
The straight edge guide should be
positioned such that the motor side of
the saw rides against it when cutting
the desired line.
•
The deeper the cut, the thinner the
straight edge guide must be, because
the clearance below the motor along
the motor side of the base is very
limited.
•
Ensure that the clamps do not
interfere with free movement of the
saw.
▶ Cutting Large Sheets
Large sheets and long boards sag or
bend, depending on support. If you
attempt to cut without leveling and
properly supporting the piece, the blade
will tend to bind, causing KICK-BACK and
extra load on the motor (Fig. 29).
Whether or not a track is being used to
make the cut, support the panel or board
close to the cut, as shown in Fig. 30. Be
sure to set the depth of the cut so that
you cut through the sheet or board only
and not the table or work bench. The
two-by-fours used to raise and support
the work should be positioned so that
the broadest sides support the work and
rest on the table or bench. Do not
support the work with the narrow sides
as this is an unsteady arrangement. If the
sheet or board to be cut is too large for
a table or work bench, use the
supporting two-by-fours on the floor and
secure.
