USING THE STOCK FEEDER ON A TABLE SAW

D

Position the feeder assembly (A) Fig. 44 so that the saw blade is placed between the middle roller (B) and the infeed roller (E). Also, position the stock feeder slightly at an angle to the direction of feed. For example, the out- feed roller (C) should be approximately 1/4" closer to the fence (D) than the infeed roller (E) (Fig. 49). This posi- tion will keep the workpiece against the fence.
