Securing the Workpiece with Lever Vise
Raise the upper lever to release the feed mecha-
nism.
(Figure 8)
Push the horizontal lever (feed or fence bar) until
the vise contacts the pipe.
(Figure 8)
Bring the upper lever to the horizontal position.
The workpiece is now securely tightened.
NOTE! Always use both hands when using the vise to
prevent saw from tipping.
NOTE! For smoother operation and extended life, keep
the vise mechanism lubricated.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
WARNING
Always be sure that the tool is switched OFF and
unplugged before changing blade or servicing saw.
Make sure the blade hex bolt is securely tightened.
IMPORTANT! The RIDGID Dry Cut Saw blade will give
long life if certain elemental rules are fol-
lowed:
Do not force the blade into the material
to be cut.
Only cut material within the specified
capacity for the saw blade.
Let the machine reach full speed before
starting to cut.
NEVER stop and restart with the blade
in contact with the material. This will
break the teeth.
Clamp the material correctly and ensure
that it is centered relative to the blade.
