CUTTING OPERATIONS

There are two basic types of cuts: ripping and
crosscutting. Ripping is cutting along the length and the
grain of the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting either
across the width or across the grain of the workpiece.
Neither ripping nor crosscutting may be done safely
freehand. Ripping requires the use of the rip fence, and
crosscutting requires the miter gauge.
WARNING
Before using the saw each and every time, check
the following:
1. The blade is tightened to the arbor.
2. The bevel angle lock knob is tight.
3. If ripping, the fence is locked into position & is parallel
to the miter gauge groove.
4. The blade guard is in place and working properly.
5. Safety glasses are being worn.
The failure to adhere to these common safety rules,
and those printed in the front of this manual, can greatly
increase the likelihood of injury.
RIPPING (FIG. AA, BB)
WARNING
To prevent serious injury:
Never use a miter gauge when ripping.
Never use more than one rip fence during a
single cut.
Do not allow familiarity or frequent use of your
table saw to cause careless mistakes. Remember
that even a careless fraction of a second is
enough to cause a severe injury.
Keep both hands away from the blade and clear
from the path of the blade.
The workpiece must have a straight edge against
the fence and must not be warped, twisted, or
bowed when ripping.
1. Remove the miter gauge and store it in the "storage"
compartment in the base of the saw.
2. Secure the rip fence to the table.
3. Raise the blade so it is about 1/8 in higher than the
top of the workpiece.
4. Place the workpiece flat on the table and against the
fence. Keep the workpiece away from the blade.
5. Turn the saw ON and wait for the blade to come to
full speed.
6. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade by pushing
forward only on the workpiece section (1) that will
pass between the blade and the fence. (Fig. AA)
AVOID KICKBACK by pushing forward on the
section of the workpiece that passes between the
blade and the fence. Never perform any freehand
operations.
Fig. AA
NOTE: Always use a push stick. When width of the rip
is narrower than 2 in the push stick cannot be used
because the guard will interfere...therefore, use the
auxiliary fence so the push stick can be used as shown
on page 24.
7. Keep your thumbs off the table top. When both of
your thumbs touch the front edge of the table (2),
finish the cut with a push stick. To make an additional
push stick, use the pattern on page 24.
8. The push stick (3) should always be used. (Fig. BB)
9. Continue pushing the workpiece with the push stick
(3) until it passes through the blade guard and clears
the rear of the table.
10.Never pull the piece back when the blade is turning.
Turn the switch OFF. When the blade completely
stops, you can then remove the workpiece.
