WARNING: Ensure that the workpiece is
secured with the vise and make the cut slowly. Failure
to do so may cause the workpiece to move resulting in
possiblekickbackandseriouspersonalinjury.
WARNING: Be aware that the platform may
become weakened after several cuts are per-
formed at various miter angles. If the platform
becomes weakened due to the multiple kerf cuts left
in the material, the platform should be replaced. If the
weakened platform is not replaced, it may cause the
workpiece to move, during cutting, resulting in possi-
blekickbackandseriouspersonalinjury.
