5. Guide fence
The vertical vise can be installed on either the left or
right side of the guide fence. Insert the vise rod into the
hole in the guide fence and tighten the screw on the
back of the guide fence to secure the vise rod.
Position the vise arm according to the thickness and shape
of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by tightening the
screw. If the screw to secure the vise arm contacts the guide
fence, install the screw on the opposite side of vise arm.
Make sure that no part of the tool contacts the vise when low-
ering the handle fully and pulling or pushing the carriage all
the way. If some part contacts the vise, re-position the vise.
Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the
turn base. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting
position and secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.
WARNING:
The workpiece must be secured firmly against the
•
turn base and guide fence with the vise during all
operations. If the workpiece is not properly secured
against the fence the material may move during the
cutting operation causing possible damage to the
blade, causing the material to be thrown and loss of
control resulting in serious personal injury.
Horizontal vise (optional accessory)
► 1 . Vise plate 2. Vise nut 3. Vise knob
The horizontal vise can be installed in two positions on
either the left or right side of the base. When performing
10° or greater miter cuts, install the horizontal vise on
the side opposite the direction in which the turn base is
to be turned.

By flipping the vise nut counterclockwise, the vise is
released, and rapidly moves in and out. To grip the
workpiece, push the vise knob forward until the vise
plate contacts the workpiece and flip the vise nut clock-
wise. Then turn the vise knob clockwise to secure the
workpiece.
The maximum width of workpiece which can be secured
by the horizontal vise is 215 mm (8-1/2").
When installing the horizontal vise on the right side of
the base, also use the sub-fence R to secure the work-
piece more firmly. Refer to the "Sub-fence R" section
described on previously for installing the sub-fence R.

WARNING:
Always rotate the vise nut clockwise until
the workpiece is properly secured. If the
workpiece is not properly secured the material
may move during the cutting operation causing
possible damage to the blade, causing the
material to be thrown and loss of control result-
ing in serious personal injury.
When cutting a thin workpiece, such as base
boards, against the fence, always use the hori-
zontal vise.
