D. To avoid slips due to lifting of the work piece make
sure the blade teeth point downward toward the

1. When cutting a large piece of material make
sure it is fully supported at table height.
2. Hold the work piece firmly against the table.

Only feed the material fast enough so that the
blade will cut.

irregular in cross section and could pinch the
blade before the cut is completed.
A piece of
molding, for example, must Iay flat on the table
and not be permitted to rock while being cut.

such as dowel rods, or tubing. They have a
tendency to roll while being cut causing the
