Accessory Construction for Alternative Operation Methods
Narrow Rip Auxiliary Fence (Fig. AA–CC)
The narrow rip auxiliary fence should be used for a rip measuring 2" (51mm) or narrower. This
fence will allow the guard to remain on the saw when completing narrow ripping. This fence will
provide ample space for proper use of a push block (
66
, see Push Block).
1. Follow the diagram in Fig. AA to construct the narrow rip auxiliary fence
69
.
NOTE: The length should be cut to fit the length
64
of the saw table top and sides
65
must
beparallel.

2. After the narrow rip auxiliary fence is constructed, slip it over the saw table top and place it
flush to the fence as shown in FigureCC.
3. Feed the workpiece through until the edge of the material reaches the front edge of the saw
tabletop.
4. Continue feeding the material using the push block
66
until the cut iscomplete.
Push Block (Fig. BB, CC)
IMPORTANT: Only use the push block
66
with the narrow rip auxiliary fence, refer to Narrow
Rip Auxiliary Fence. The push block should be used once the material being cut reaches the saw
tabletop.
1. Construct a push block using the diagram in FigureBB.
NOTE: Edges
67
must beparrallel.
IMPORTANT: The over hanging edge
68
Fig. BB) MUST be square. An uneven lip could
cause the push block to slip or push the material away from thefence.

2. Place the push block
66
(Fig. CC) behind the material and ensure the lip of the block is flush
to the narrow rip auxiliary fence
69
.
3. Once the push block is in place, continue feeding the material until the cut is complete
making sure the push block remains flush to the narrow rip auxiliary fence at alltimes.
IMPORTANT: The narrow rip auxiliary fence and the over hanging edge
68

be the samethickness.

Featherboard Construction (Fig. DD, EE)
Featherboards are used to keep the work in contact with the fence and table, and help prevent
kickbacks. Dimensions for making a typical featherboard are shown in Figure DD. Make
the featherboard from a straight piece of wood that is free of knots and cracks. Clamp the
featherboard to the fence and table so that the leading edge of the featherboard will support the
workpiece until the cut is complete (Fig. EE). An 8" (203mm) high flat board can be clamped to
the rip fence and the featherboard can be clamped to the 8" (203mm) highboard.

WARNING: Use featherboards for all non thru-sawing operations where the blade guard
assembly, anti-kickback assembly and riving knife cannot be used. Always replace the
blade guard assembly, anti-kickback assembly and riving knife when the non thru-
sawing operation is complete. Make sure the featherboard presses only on the portion of
the workpiece in front of theblade.
