Common Terms

In order to increase user safety awareness and understanding, we have provided a list of common terms associated with table saws. We will refer to many of these terms throughout this manual, so the time you spend learning these terms will result in an increased knowledge of table saw applications.

SAFETY

Arbor

The shaft underneath the table on which the blade mounts.

Bevel

An angled cut on the edge of a board that reach- es both faces of the board.

Crosscut

To cut across the grain of a piece of stock.

Dado

A slot cut partially through the thickness of the stock either with or against the grain.

Feed Rate

The speed at which the stock is pushed into the moving blade.

Flush

A condition when two or more surfaces are per- fectly flat and parallel to each other, so that their touching edges have an even surface.

Kerf

The width of the material that a blade removes from the workpiece.

Kickback

The event in which the stock is ejected from the blade at a high rate of speed toward the opera- tor. Usually caused by binding the blade or by a blade condition that forces the momentum of the blade to push the stock away.

Miter Cut

An angled cut across the face or end of a board. Usually cut to match another board of a corre- sponding angle so that each cut piece fits per- fectly into the other, thus changing the direc- tion of the workpiece.

Non Through-Cut

A cut that does not pass through the top of the workpiece—i.e. a dado or rabbet cut. This type of cut is more dangerous than a through cut because it requires the operator to remove the blade guard/splitter assembly.

Examples:

Dado Cutting: Page 29

Rabbet Cutting: Page 31

Resawing: Page 33

Outfeed Side

The opposite side of the table that the workpiece is fed into the blade. Usually supplemented with an aftermarket or shop-made table to catch a freshly cut workpiece.

Positive Stop

A bolt or pin that can be adjusted to stop a mov- ing part at a predetermined location. This table saw has positive stops for tilting the blade.

Rabbet

An L-shaped cut along the edge of a workpiece.

Rip Cut

To cut along the grain of stock (see Page 27).

Straightedge

An object with a perfectly straight edge that is used to compare against another object to determine whether it is straight.

Through-Cut

A cut that passes completely through the top of the workpiece. The blade guard MUST be installed for safest operation.

Examples:

Rip Cuts: Page 27

Crosscutting: Page 28

Miter Cuts: Page 28

Blade Tilt/Bevel Cuts: Page 27
