or PARALLELISM

 

OF SAWBLADE TO MITER GAUGE GROOVE

 

While cutting, the material must move in a straight line

 

PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE ... therefore both the

 

miter gauge GROOVE and the RIP FENCE must be

 

PARALLEL

to the SAWBLADE.

 

 

If the sawblade IS NOT parallel to the miter gauge groove,

HARK I'XI'ON TOOTH

the blade will bind at one end of the cut. (This is known as

 

"HEELING").

 

 

 

To check for parallelism:
