Blade Guard Assembly Figure 63 Figure 63. Guard Spreader In order to work properly, the spreader cannot be bent or misaligned with the blade. If the spreader gets accidentally bent, take the time to straighten it or just replace it. Using a bent or misaligned spreader will increase the risk of kickback!

We do not recommend removing the pawls during normal operations unless absolutely necessary. In most situations, removing the pawls will increase your risk of serious per- sonal injury in the event of kickback. To remove the pawls: Figure 68 Figure 68. Re-installing Pawls Figure 69 Figure 69.

Ripping Serious injury can be caused by kickback. Kickback is a high-speed expulsion of stock from the table saw toward an operator. The operator or bystanders may be struck by flying stock, or the operator’s hands can be pulled into the blade during kickback.

Crosscutting To make a crosscut using the miter gauge: Figure 75 Figure 75. Turn OFF the saw and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the cut-off piece. Failure to follow this warn- ing could result in serious personal injury To perform a miter cut: Figure 76 Figure 76.
Blade Tilt/Bevel Cuts Page 64 Figure 77 Figure 77 Dado Cutting Figure 78 Dado Blade Figure 78. Installing a Dado Blade Dado blades have a higher risk of kickback than normal blades because their larger size applies stronger forces to the workpiece.

Cutting Rabbets with a Standard Blade Page 33 To cut rabbets with the standard blade: Figure 85, Blade Figure 85. DO NOT place a tall board on edge to per- form a rabbet cut with a standard blade. Workpieces that are too tall to properly sup- port with the fence can easily shift during operation and cause kickback.
Page 49
Resawing Resawing operations require proper pro- cedures to avoid serious injury. Extra care must be taken to prevent kickback when resawing. Any tilting or movement of the workpiece away from the fence will cause kickback. Be certain that stock is flat and straight.
Auxiliary Fence Components Needed for the Auxiliary Fence: Only use furniture-grade plywood, kiln dried hardwood, or HDPE plastic to prevent warping. Tools Needed for the Auxiliary Fence: To build the auxiliary fence: Resawing Operations Components Needed for Resawing: You may experience kickback during this procedure.
Page 51
Note: When figuring out the correct width, don't forget to account for blade kerf and the inaccuracy of the fence scale while the auxil- iary fence is installed. (Front View) Figure 89 Figure 90 The danger of kickback increases relative to the depth of a cut.
SECTION 5: SHOP MADE SAFETY ACCESSORIES Featherboards Making a Featherboard Material Needed for Featherboard Mounted with Clamps Material Needed for Featherboard Mounted in Miter Slot To make a featherboard: Step 3 We recommend using a bandsaw for making fingers in the next step because it tends to be safer.
Page 53
Figure 92 Figure 92. Figure 93 Tip: Consider making the miter bar longer for larger featherboards—approximately half the length of the total featherboard—to support the force applied to the featherboard during use. Figure 93. Figure 94. Note: The routed slot, countersink hole, and the flat head screw are essential for the miter bar to clamp into the miter slot.

Mounting Featherboards w/Clamps Figure 95 Figure 95. Figure 95 Step 5 Mounting Featherboard in Miter Slot Figure 96 Figure 96. Step 4 Note: The featherboard should be placed firmly enough against the workpiece to keep it against the fence but not so tight that it is difficult to feed the workpiece.
