When cutting a narrow piece of wood it is not necessary to use the slide mechanism.
In these cases ensure that the saw head is pushed back and the slide lock (21) is
screwed down to prevent the saw arm from sliding (fig. g). A crosscut is made by
cutting across the grain of the workpiece. A 90º crosscut is made with the mitre
table set at 0º. Mitre crosscuts are made with the table set at some angle other than
