Blade Guides
The left blade guide should be as close to the
workpiece as possible during cutting operations.
This will help ensure straight cuts by keeping the
blade from twisting and drifting off the cut line.
To adjust the left blad e g uide, loosen the adjustable
handle on left blade guide arm (see Figure 43)
and slide the arm/guide as close to the workpiece
as possible, then tighten the adjustable handle.

To use vise:
1. Push hydraulic pump button
to turn
hydraulic pump ON.
2. Push vise open button
to release any
pressure on movable vise jaw.
3. Insert workpiece between jaws. Use vise
handwheel to move vise jaw until it just con-
tacts workpiece.
IMPORTANT: Use roller stands or tables to
support long workpieces.
4. Push vise close button
to clamp
workpiece. Between cuts, use vise open
button
to release and reposition/reload a
new workpiece.
The movable vise jaw (see Figure 41) is adjusted
manually with the vise handwheel and is locked
in position hydraulically. Motorized rollers on the
clamping surface of the vise jaw move workpieces
into and out of cutting position. The fixed vise jaw
is a stationary clamping surface that has non-
motorized rollers.
To avoid serious injury, always turn saw
OFF and allow blade to come to complete
stop before adjusting vise!
