This saw has the capability of rip cutting large panels (=`^li\-,). The sliding table removes the burden of sliding a large and heavy panel over a stationary table surface.

This saw also has the capability of rip cutting smaller boards, using the machine as a traditional table saw (=`^li\--). Smaller, lighter boards are easier to slide across the stationary cast iron table surface to the right of the saw blade.

Determine which cutting operation will be best suited for the workpiece to be ripped.

To use the sliding table, read the instructions titled “Rip Cutting w/Sliding Table.”

To use the machine as a traditional table saw, skip ahead to “Rip Cutting w/Rip Fence.”

(% Install the crosscut fence on the crosscut table, and rotate it until the fence touches the 90° stop bolt (=`^li\-.).

)% Check to make sure the fence is at 90˚ and, if nec- essary, adjust it as described in :Xc`YiXk`e^:ifjjZlk =\eZ\0'—Jkfgj on GX^\,/.

*% Slide the fence so the plastic block on the end is next to the blade teeth—this calibrates the scale to zero—then tighten the lock knob.
