Through vs. Non-Through

Cuts

Understand the safety precautions for each type of cut to reduce the risk of injury.

The risk of kickback exists with both through and non- through cuts. Kickback is an event in which the workpiece is propelled back towards the operator at a high rate of speed. The risk of kickback is higher with non-through cuts because the splitter and blade guard must be removed. Always remember to re-install the blade guard and splitter after performing a non-through cut.

OPERATIONS

Through Cuts

A through cut is a sawing operation in which the workpiece is completely sawn through. Rip cuts, cross cuts, miter cuts, and angled cuts are all through cutting operations.

Safety precautions and instructions for through cuts are located on the following pages:

Rip Cuts: Page 27

Cross Cuts: Page 28

Miter Cuts: Page 28

Blade Tilt/Bevel Cuts: Page 27

DO NOT make a through-cut with a dado blade. Dado blades are not designed for through cuts. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious per- sonal injury.

Non-Through Cuts

A non-through cut is a sawing operation where the blade does not protrude above the top face of the wood stock. Non-through cuts require the removal of the blade guard and splitter. Dado cuts, rabbet cuts, and resawing are the only non-through cuts that can be performed with this table saw. Always replace the blade guard after non- through cuts!

Safety precautions and instructions for through cuts are located on the following pages:

Dado Cuts: Page 29

Rabbet Cuts: Page 31

Resawing: Page 33

The blade guard/splitter is a critical safety device that greatly reduces operator risk of injury. The blade guard MUST be re-installed after making non- through cuts.
