The following information describes the safe and proper method for performing the most common sawing operations. THE USE OF ATTACHMENTS AND ACCESSORIES NOT RECOMMENDED BY DELTA MAY RESULT IN THE RISK OF INJURY.
RIPPING Ripping is the operation of making a lengthwise cut through a board, as shown in Fig. 49, and the rip fence (A) is used to position and guide the work. One edge of the work rides against the rip fence while the flat side of the board rests on the table.
Page 23
For certain cutting operations such as dadoing and moulding where you are not cutting completely through the workpiece, the blade guard and splitter assembly cannot be used. Always return and fasten the blade guard and splitter assembly to its proper operating position for normal thru-sawing operations.
USING ACCESSORY DADO HEAD THE BLADE GUARD AND SPLITTER ASSEMBLY CANNOT BE USED WHEN DADOING OR MOULDING AND MUST BE REMOVED. Dadoing is cutting a rabbet or wide groove into the work. Most dado head sets are made up of two outside saws and four or five inside cutters, as shown in Fig.
Page 25
USING AUXILIARY WOOD FACING ON RIP FENCE It is necessary when performing special operations such as moulding to add wood facing (A) Fig. 60, to one or both sides of the rip fence, as shown. The wood facing is attached to the fence with wood screws, countersunk and assembled through the holes provided in the fence.
CONSTRUCTING A PUSH STICK When ripping work less than 4 inches wide, a push stick should be used to complete the feed and could easily be made from scrap material by following the pattern shown.
