III. SAFETY RULES

There is acertain amount of danger associated with the use of this tool. Operating it with

respect and caution will considerably lessen the possibility of personal injury. If these safety

precautions are ignored, injury to the operator or others in the area could occur.

The Model G1690 was designed specifically as atrimming tool, not for general cutoff work.

Further, the trimmer should only be used on natural wood fibers, not on composites such

as plastics, particleboards, or MDF. This tool should never be modified or used for any other

purpose than that for which it was intended. As well as being dangerous, modifications or

improper use of the Model G1690 will void all warranties.

1.Never put your hands or fingers in the path of the blade. Keep fingers clear of the

cutting edge at all times.

2. Do not use your trimmer on wood of poor quality, or wood with nails.

3. Do not take too heavy aslice in one pass. Take several thin slices instead.

4. Contain long hair before using the trimmer.

5. Do not wear loose clothing, neckties, or jewelry during operation.

6. Make sure trimmer is secured to benchtop before use.

7. Lock fences and stops in position before use.

8. Keep blades sharp.

9. Use trimmer to cut wood fibers only. Composites, plastics, etc. will damage the knives.

10. Keep trimmer out of the reach of children.

IV. UNPACKING

Your trimmer arrived packaged in astiff cardboard box. If you find damage to the components

after you've signed the delivery receipt and the truck and driver have gone, you will need

to file afreight claim with the carrier. Save the container and all packing material for inspection

by the carrier or their agent. Without the packing material, filing afreight claim could be difficult.

Of course, if you ever need advice in this matter, please call us.

V. INVENTORY

The only loose part in the carton is the cast iron operating lever, which fits in the appropriate

slot on the geared wheel on the back of the trimmer. If anything is missing, call or write

to the appropriate regional service department listed in the Introduction. If anything is damaged,

please follow the procedures described in the "Unpacking" section.

Note: Be extremely careful when unpacking the trimmer. Keep fingers and hands clear of

the blade areas, should the blade slide freely during movement.

VI. CLEANUP

All of the unpainted surfaces of your machine have been treated with athick, brown rust

preventative to protect them from corrosion during shipment. The best way to remove this

substance is with common paint thinner (mineral spirits) and plenty of clean rags. Do not

use gasoline or other petroleum-based solvents because of their extremely low flash points.

Nor should you use chlorine-based solvents—if you happen to splash some onto apainted

surface, you'll ruin the finish. Before cleaning, please acknowledge the following safety rules

when working with solvents:

•Read and follow all directions and warnings on the solvent label.

•Work only in awell ventilated area.

•Do not work near any type of open flame (e.g., pilot lights, kerosene heaters, and

so on).

•DO NOT smoke while working with flammable material.

•Rags from the cleaning process are quite combustible. Dispose of waste towels so

they do not create afire hazard.

VII. OPERATION

If you have not already done so, secure the miter trimmer to atable or bench top. If you

need the trimmer to be portable, mount it to aplywood base, then clamp the base to astable

flat surface before use. If the trimmer is not secured, performace and safety could be

compromised.

The Model G1690 Miter Trimmer has two positive stops—one at 90° and another at 45°.

These stops are preset at the factory and are probably accurate. However, before you trim

an actual workpiece, test the angles on scraps first.

1. Crosscut apiece of scrapwood at 45° on atable saw or bandsaw. Then place the

workpiece in the trimmer and slice off about 1/32wof the end.

2. Using acombination square, measure the accuracy of the angle you have just cut.

In most cases, you shouldn't need to make an adjustment. But in case you do, minute

adjustments can be made by loosening the screw that holds the brass cam in place

on the trimmer's table.

3. Move the fence into the desired position by loosening the wing bolt and sliding the

fence left or right. Next, rotate the cam until it is snug against the fence.

4. Then tighten the cam's screw. Tighten the wing bolt.

5. Similarly, the spring pin at the 45° position can be adjusted to compensate for minor

inaccuracies. Simply rotate the cam to the desired position and tighten the stop in

place. Slide the fence over the pin (you might need to use asmall, flat-tipped

screwdriver to push the pin down while the fence clears it), and the spring will pull

the fence back against the pin to lock it in place at 45°. See Figure 1.

6. To set the fence to angles other than 45° or 90°, use abevel gauge to determine

the desired angle, then lock the fence in place against the bevel gauge.

7. Prepare the workpiece by accurately measuring the desired length needed. Add

approximately 7»" to either end and cut off, using atable saw, band saw, or machine

of your choice. Select the appropriate angle by moving the fence into place and

tightening the wing bolt on the end of the arm. Move the piece ahead so it hangs

over the edge of the bed by approximately Vaa".

8. Now, while keeping pressure on the workpiece simultaneously downward and against

the fence, draw the lever toward the workpiece with an even, steady force. You will

get better results by making several thin slices rather than one thick slice.

9. You can achieve compound miters by placing a45° block against the fence and resting

the workpiece against the block as shown in Figure 2.
