Grizzly MODEL instruction manual Zero Clearance Table Inserts, Push Paddles, Featherboards

Zero Clearance Table Inserts

Ideal for use when ripping thin strips or making bevel cuts, these prevent tearout and jammed blades by supporting material close to the blade.

Use the standard table insert as a template when creating additional inserts from wood or plywood. Slots can be custom cut for specific blade angles by raising the running blade into an uncut insert at the angle you desire. Be sure to make an addi- tional slot for the blade splitter.

We also carry a wide selection of table inserts (Figure 2) in the Grizzly catalog or website. Be sure to hold the insert firmly in place with a piece of wood when creating slots. Never hold the table insert with your hand while cutting new slots.

Push Paddles

Push paddles provide added leverage and sup- port when ripping or crosscutting wide work- pieces as shown in Figure 3. We offer a number of push paddles in the Grizzly catalog.

Featherboards

Easily made from scrap stock, featherboards pro- vide an added degree of protection against kick- back as shown in Figure 4. To make a feather- board, cut a 30-40¡ angle at one end of the board and make a number of end cuts at approximately 1Ú4" apart and 2" to 3" deep. We also offer a num- ber of featherboards in the Grizzly catalog.
