USING THE WOOD FACING ON THE RIP FENCE (Fig. as)

When performing some special cutting operations, you can add a wood facing to either side of the rip fence (2).

1.Use a smooth straight 3/4 in. thick wood board (1) that is as long as the rip fence.

2.Attach the wood facing to the fence with wood screws (3) (not included) through the holes in the fence. A wood fence should be used when ripping material such as thin paneling to prevent the material from catching between the bottom of the fence and the table.

To avoid the risk of personal injury. Always use push block, auxiliary fence and featherboard when making non4hrough cut.

1.Before starting the table saw, lower the blade and riving knife assembly to the down position.

2.Remove the blade guard assembly and anti-kickback pawls assembly for non-through cut.

3.Use the featherboard (1) with C-clamps (3) to fasten the workpiece securely.

4.Mount the auxiliary fence (4) with C-clamps.

5.Use the push block (2) to move the

workpiece.

NOTE:

oMount the featherboard to table

as shown, so the leading edges of featherboard will help workpiece complete cutting.
