13Vertical viseThe vertical vise can be installed on the guide fence or theholder assembly (optional accessory). Insert the vise rod intothe hole in the guide fence or the holder assembly andtighten the screw to secure the vise rod.Position the vise arm according to the thickness and shapeof the workpiece and secure the vise arm by tightening thescrew. If the screw to secure the vise arm contacts the guidefence, install the screw on the opposite side of vise arm.Make sure that no part of the tool contacts the vise whenlowering the handle all the way. If some part contacts thevise, re-position the vise.Press the workpiece flat against the guide fence and the turnbase. Position the workpiece at the desired cutting positionand secure it firmly by tightening the vise knob.CAUTION:• The workpiece must be secured firmly against the turnbase and guide fence with the vise during all operations.Horizontal vise (optional accessory)The horizontal vise can be installed on either the left or rightside of the base. When performing 15° or greater miter cuts,install the horizontal vise on the side opposite the direction inwhich the turn base is to be turned. By turning the vise knobcounterclockwise, the screw is released and the vise shaftcan be moved rapidly in and out. By turning the vise knobclockwise, the screw remains secured. To grip the workpiece,turn the vise knob gently clockwise until the projectionreaches its topmost position, then fasten securely. If the viseknob is forced in or pulled out while being turned clockwise,the projection may stop at an angle. In this case, turn thevise knob back counterclockwise until the screw is released,before turning again gently clockwise.The maximum width of the workpiece which can be securedby the horizontal vise is 130 mm (5-1/8”).CAUTION:• Grip the workpiece only when the projection is at thetopmost position. Failure to do so may result ininsufficient securing of the workpiece. This could causethe workpiece to be thrown, cause damage to the bladeor cause the loss of control, which can result inPERSONAL INJURY.1. Vise arm2. Vise rod3. Guide fence4. Holder5. Holder assembly6.
