RESAWING

RESAWING is known as ripping a piece of wood

through its thickness. Do not attempt to resaw BOWED or WARPED material. NOTE: To RESAWa

piece of wood wider than 3-3/8 in... it will be necessary to remove the blade guard ... and use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT. (See "Work

Helpers").

Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece will SLIDE EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS

without BINDING between the two fences.

Do not clamp directly tc the bottom edge of the table because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip

properly. Place a small block of wood between the bottom edge of the table and the "C" clamp.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY...

I. DO NOT "BACK UP" (REVERSE FEEDING)

WHILE RESAWING BECAUSE THIS COULD CAUSE A KICKBACK.

RABBETING

RABBETING is known as cutting out a section of the corner of a piece of material, across an end oralong an edge.

To make a RABBET requires cuts which do not go all the way through the material. Therefore the blade

1.Remove blade guard.

2.For rabbeting along an edge (long way of workpiece) as shown, add facing to rip fence

approximately as high as the workpiece is wide. Adjust rip fence and blade to required dimensions; then make first cut with board flat on table as any rip (type) cut; makesecond cut with workpiece On edge. Follow all precautions, safety instructions, and operational instructions as for

3.For rabbeting across an end, for workpiece 10-

1/2 and narrower make the rabbet cut w th the board flat on the table. Using the miter gauge

fitted with a facing follow the same procedures and instructions for cross cutting, making successive cuts across the width of the work-
