TABLE SAW TERMS

MITER GAUGE - A guide used for crosscutting operations that slides in the tabletop channels located on either side of the blade. It helps make accurate straight or angle cuts.

RIP FENCE - A guide used for rip cutting that clamps to the tabletop. It allows the workpiece to be straight.

TABLE INSERT - Provides access to the blade arbor for changing blades.

OVERLOAD RESET SWITCH - Resets the thermocouple and provides a way to restart the saw motor if it overheats or overloads.

BLADE BEVEL SCALE - Measures the angle the blade is tilted when set for a bevel cut.

TABLE SCALE - Measures the distance the rip fence is set from the blade, allowing quick setups.

ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS - Prevents the workpiece from being kicked upward or back toward the front of the table saw by the spinning blade.

SPLITTER - Keeps the workpiece spread apart after being cut, to prevent binding on the blade and workpiece.

CROSSCUT - A cut made across the width of the workpiece.

FREEHAND - Performing a cut without using a fence (guide), hold down or other proper device to prevent the workpiece from twisting during the cutting operation.

GUM - A sticky sap from wood products.

HEEL - Misalignment of the blade.

KERF - The amount of material removed by a blade cut.

MITER CUT - An angle cut made across the width of the workpiece.

RESIN - A sticky sap that has hardened.

REVOLUTIONS PER MINUTE (RPM) - The number of turns completed by a spinning object in one minute.

SAW BLADE PATH - The area of the workpiece or table top directly in line with the travel of the blade or the part of the workpiece that will be cut.

SET - The distance between two saw blade tips, bent outward in opposite directions to each other. The further apart the tips are, the greater the set.

BLADE ELEVATION HANDWHEEL - Raises and lowers the blade.

BLADE TILTING HANDWHEEL - Tilts the blade to any angle between 0 to 45 for bevel cuts.
