Non Thru-Sawing

Add 8" high flat facing board to the fence, the full length of the fence (Fig. 49).

Use featherboards for all “Non Thru-Sawing” operations (when sawblade guard must be removed). Featherboards 1 are used to keep the work in contact with the fence and table as shown, and to stop kickbacks.

Mount featherboards 1 to fence and table as shown, so that leading edges of featherboards will support workpiece until cut is complete, and the workpiece has been pushed com pletely past the cutter (sawblade, dado head, molding head, etc.) with a Push Stick 2, as in ripping.

Before starting the operation (switch “OFF” and cutter below table surface):

A. Install featherboards so they exert pressure on the work piece; be positive they are securely attached.

B. Make sure by trial that the featherboards will stop a kick back if one should occur.

Featherboards are not employed during non thru-sawing operations when using the miter gauge.

Replace the sawblade guard as soon as the non thru-sawing operation is complete.

Rabbeting

RABBETING is known as cutting out a section of the corner of a piece of material, across an end or along an edge (Fig. 50).

Making a RABBET requires cuts which do not go all the way through the material. Therefore the blade guard must be removed.

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, follow set-up Fig. 49. Make second

cut with workpiece on edge, follow set-up Fig. 47. Follow all

precautions, safety instructions, and operation instructions as for

ripping or rip type operations, including featherboards and Push

Stick, etc.

3. For rabbeting across an end, for workpiece 10-1/2" and narrower

make the rabbet cut with the board flat on the table. Using the miter

gauge fitted with a facing, follow the same procedures and

instructions for crosscutting making suc cessive cuts across the

width of the workpiece to obtain the desired width of cut. DO NOT

use the rip fence for rabbeting across the end.

4. INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON COM-

PLETION OF RABBETING OPERATION.

Rabbet cuts can also be made in one pass of the workpiece over the cutter using the dado head or molding head.
