    Non-Through & Through Cuts A through cut is a sawing operation in which the Through Cuts workpiece is completely sawn through, as shown in the Figure below. Examples of through cuts are rip cuts, cross cuts, miter cuts, and beveled cuts. The blade guard assembly MUST be used when Non-Through Cuts performing through cuts.

    Blade Selection Crosscut Blade Features: • Best for cutting across the grain • 60-80 teeth • Alternate top bevel tooth profile • Small hook angle and a shallow gullet Using a blade that does not meet the speci- fied blade size requirements presents a hazardous condition that could cause kick- back, operator injuries, or property damage.
  • Page 63 Laminate Blade Features: • Best for cutting plywood or veneer • 40-80 teeth Dado blades have a higher risk of kickback • Triple chip tooth profile than normal blades because their larger size • Very shallow gullet applies stronger forces to the workpiece. This risk increases relative to the depth and width of the cut.
