board against the fence must be straight and will
not catch on kerfs in the fence - for workpieces
thicker than the fence is high, install a higher
fence (at least the thickness of the workpiece).
NEVER RIP"FREEHAND" (without aid offence)
5 Properly set the anti-kickback and spreader
assernbly, Observe INSTRUCTIONS in para-
graph "Positioning guard and anti-kickback and
spreader assembly for ripping" under "Location
and Function of Controls" page 32.
6 Never rip pieces shorter than the diameter-of the
blade
7. When ripping narrow stock (tess than 6 inches
but more than 2 inches between the guard and
the fence (guide) use a "PUSH STICK" (as
shown) so the workpiece is clear of the blade
before your hand reaches the guard The end of
the workpiece to which the push stick or push
block (see below) is applied must be square to
the fence and table.
8. When ripping stock 3/8" to 2" or less between the
guard and fence (guide) use an auxiliary fence
and push block. Make these work helpers to the
dimension shown

NOTE: All dimensions in inches
NOTE: Since the push block is used with the
auxiliary fence the 4-3/4 inch dimension must be
held identical on both of the pieces
The small piece of wood 3/8 inch x 3/8 inch x
2-1/2 inch should be GLUED to the plywood ....
DO NOT USE NAILS This is to prevent dulling
the sawblade in the event you cut into the push
block
NOTE: To insure reliable support use only push
block and auxiliary fences that have not been
damaged by blade contact during use,
Position the handle at the edge of the plywood
and fasten together with glue and wood screws.

The push block should feed the stock being
ripped until the stock is clear of the rear of the
blade, and then pulled back with use of the grip.
When ripping narrower than 3/8 inch position the
saw blade to rernove the narrow strip from edge
of workpiece furthest from the fence. (See out
ripping section below) Follow procedures as
above based on distance from blade to fence.
Keep HANDS away from the saw blade
Saw blade must be parallel to fence to minimize
possibility of kickbacks.
