Additional Instructions for

NEVER use the Miter Gauge when npp_ng,
Use a push stick whenever the fence is 2 or more
inches from the blade When thru-sawing, use an
Auxiliary Fence and Push Block whenever the
fence must be between 1/2 inch and 2 inches
from the blade, Never thru-saw rip cuts narrower
_an 1/2 inch. (See "BASIC SAW OPERATION
USING THE RIP FENCE' section),
Never rip anything shorter than 10" tong,
When using a Push Stick or Push Block the trail-
_ng end of the board must be square, A push stick
or block against an uneven end could slip off or
push the work away from the fence,
A FEATHERBOARD can hetp guide the work-
p_ece See BASIC SAW OPERATION - USING
THE RiP FENCE. Always use featherboards for
any non4f_ru rip type cuts.

BEFORE STARTING
-[b avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make
sure the rip fence is parallel to the sawblade.
Check the anti-kickback pawls (See BASIC SAW
OPERATION-USING THE RiP FENCE). The
pawls must stop a kickback once it has started.
Replace or sharpen Anti*Kickback pawls when
points become dull.
Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materials
may be cut on your saw. However, since these
are usually quite hard and slippery, the antikick-
back pawls may not stop a kickback. Therefore,
be especially careful in your set-up and cutting
procedures.
WHILE CUTTING
To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade,
always push forward on the section of the work-
piece between the saw blade and the Rip Fence.
Never push forward on the piece being cut off.
