Never allow hands or arms to be above or behind the saw blade. Should kickback occur, the hands and arms can be pulled into the saw blade. Serious personal injury could result.

Always use push sticks, featherboards, push paddles and other safety accessories whenever possible to increase safety and control during operations which require the blade guard and splitter to be removed from the saw. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury.

3.Reconnect the saw to the power source and turn the saw on.

4.When the blade has reached full speed, per- form a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.

5.If the cut is satisfactory, repeat with your fin- ish stock.

Cutting rabbets with the standard blade:

Cutting rabbets with a standard saw blade DOES NOT require the use of a sacrificial fence.

1.Clearly mark the width of the rabbet cut on your workpiece. Include marks on the edge of your workpiece so you can clearly identify your intended cut while the material is laying flat on the saw table.

2.Raise the blade up to the desired depth of cut (depth of rabbet channel desired).

3.If the rabbet runs the length of the material, adjust the fence so the blade is aligned with the inside of your rabbet channel as shown in Figure 37.

Always replace the blade guard after rabbet cutting is complete. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury.
