DO NOT place a tall board on edge to per- form a rabbet cut with a standard blade. Workpieces that are too tall to properly support with the fence can easily shift dur- ing operation and cause kickback. Instead, place the stock flat on the saw and perform the rabbet cut with a dado blade, as instruct- ed on Page 45.
