WARNING:
To increase the cutting capacity,
place a spacer block (ee) under the

Support long workpieces using a
piece of wood (gg) (fig. 3C). Do not

using the lock-down chain (u) (fig. 1).
3. Place a square (kk) against the fence (i) and the
left side of the cutting disc creating a perfect 90°
(fig. 4). Check that the 0° marking on the scale
(jj) aligns with the marking on the table (ll).
4. Tighten the fence bolts (ii) to lock the fence (i).
5. Release the lock-down chain (u) and return the

unexpected movement when operating.
PROCEDURE FOR PERMANENT MOUNTING
1. Drill two holes 8 mm (5/16") through the work
surface (fig. 6).
2. Insert 1/4-20 screws down through the holes
in the base and through holes in mounting
surface. The approximate length of the screws
should be the thickness of the mounting surface
plus 102mm (4").
3. Tighten both screws securely.
CRADLE MOUNTING
1. Cut two boards approximately 508 x 50.8 x
101.6 mm (20" long x 2" high x 4") wide.
2. Place chop saw at desired work location.

surface (fig. 7).
Prior to Operation
