1.
Place auxiliary fence on table and clamp
it to fence at both ends, then adjust dis-
tance between auxiliary fence and blade—
this determines how wide workpiece will be
ripped (see Figure 83).

2.
Install blade guard, then secure spreader
pawls in upright position, as shown in Figure
48 on Page 36, so they do not interfere with
push block lip.
Keep the blade guard installed and in the
down position. Failure to do this could
result in serious personal injury or death.
3.
Place workpiece 1" behind blade and even-
ly against table and auxiliary fence (see
