When cutting several pieces of stock to the same length,
1
ranging from 220 mm (8-5/8") to 365 mm (14-3/8"), use
of the set plate (optional accessory) will facilitate more
efficient operation. Install the set plate on the holder
(optional accessory) as shown in the figure.
Align the cutting line on your workpiece with either the
2
left or right side of the groove in the kerf board, and while
holding the workpiece from moving, move the set plate
flush against the end of the workpiece. Then secure the
set plate with the screw. When the set plate is not used,
loosen the screw and turn the set plate out of the way.
NOTE:
• Use of the holder-rod assembly (optional accessory)
allows cutting repetitive lengths up to 2,200 mm (7.2 ft.)
approximately.
