Clamping the Saw to the Workpiece
IMPORTANT
It is recommended that you
mount the saw to the work-
piece without the blade
installed. The blade could be
damaged if the saw strikes
the workpiece during posi-
tioning.
Before mounting the saw on the workpiece, make sure the
bow is fully retracted. If necessary, turn the manual feed
handle clockwise until it tops out.
Figure 5-30. If necessary, turn the feed handle clock-
wise to retract the saw bow before mounting the saw.
NOTICE:
The clamping cir-
cuit valves are only
opened during clamping and
unclamping. They should
remain closed during cutting.

Make sure the clamping circuit valves on the control
