 Grasp the stock firmly with one hand and secure it against
the fence. Use the work clamp, C-clamp, or other suitable
clamp to secure the workpiece when possible.
 Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cut-
ting operation to make sure that no problems will occur
when the cut is made.
 With the saw off, grasp the saw handle firmly then pull
the saw forward until the blade arbor (center of the saw
blade) is over the front of the workpiece or until the saw
is fully extended.
 Depress the trigger lockout lever and squeeze the switch
trigger. Allow several seconds for the blade to reach
maximum speed.
 Slowly lower the blade into and through the front edge
of the workpiece.
 Push the saw handle away from you and toward the bevel
scale at the back of the saw.
 Release the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to
stop rotating before raising the blade out of workpiece
and removing the workpiece from miter table.
NOTE: A cross cut is made by cutting across the grain of
the workpiece. A straight cross cut is made with the miter
table set at the 0° position. Miter cross cuts are made with
the miter table set at some angle other than 0°.
MAKING AN AUXILIARY FENCE
See Figure 38.
Depending on the size and position of the workpiece, certain
unusual cuts may benefit from the additional support that can
be provided by an auxiliary fence. The holes provided in the
miter fence are used to secure an auxiliary fence in place.
NOTE: The auxiliary fence can only be used when the bevel
is set at 0°. When making a bevel cut, the auxiliary fence
MUST be removed.
To attach the auxiliary fence to the saw:
 Loosen the fence screw and move the partial sliding miter
fence toward the blade so both holes are visible.
 Place the 3-1/2 in. x 10 in. long piece of wood against
the miter fence and aligned with the left edge of the miter
table.
NOTE: The appropriate height and thickness of the fence
will vary based on the miter angle and the material being
cut.
 Clamp the wood tightly against the fence and drive wood
screws from the back of the fence through the two holes
and into the auxiliary fence. If necessary, drill a pilot hole
into wood first to prevent splitting. Remove clamp when
finished.
NOTE: Make sure the screws you use to attach the auxil-
iary fence do not pass through the front face of the fence,
have a flat head to allow unrestricted movement of the
partial sliding miter fence, and the length of the screws
will not put them in the path of the blade at any angle.

 Return the partial sliding miter fence to its home position
so it is no longer in the blade path.
 Make full left miter cut through the auxiliary fence.
NOTE: Check for interference between the auxiliary fence
and the lower blade guard. Correct any interference before
proceeding.
 Repeat steps with second board by aligning with right
side of miter table and making a full right miter cut through
the auxiliary fence.
