through its thickness. Do not attempt to resaw
BOWED or WARPED material. NOTE: To RESAW a
piece of wood wider than 3-3/8 inch. it will be
necessary to remove the blade guard ... and use the
AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT (See "Work
Helpers")
Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece wil! SLIDE
EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS without
BINDING between the two fences.

USING FEATHERBOARDS FOR
NON-THRU SAWING
Featherboards are not employed during non thru-
sawing operations when using the miter gauge
Use featherboards for all other non "thru-sawtng"
operations (when sawMade guard must be
removed) Featherboards are used to keep the work
in contact with the fence and table as shown, and to
stop kickbacks
Add 7-1/2 inch high flat facing board to the fence,
the fult length of the fence.
Mount featherboards tO fence and table as shown,
so that leading edges of featherboards will support

(sawblade, dado head, molding head, etc) with a
pushstick, as in ripping
Before starting the operation (switch "OFF" and
cutter below table surface):
(a) Install featherboards so they exert pressure on
the workpiece; be positive they are secure, and
(b) Make sure by trial that the featherboards wilt
stop a kickback if one should occur
Replace the sawblade guard as soon as the non
thru-sawing operation is complete
