Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece will SLIDE
EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS without
BINDING between the two fences.
Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table
because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip properly.
Place a small block of wood between the bottom edge
of the table and the "C" clamp.
WARNING: For your safety:
1. Do not "Back Up" (reverse feeding) while
resawing because this could cause a kick-
back.
2. Make first pass to depth slightly more than
one=half the width of the board; keep the same
face of the board against fence for the second
paSS_
3, Install blade guard immediately upon comple-
tion of the resawing operation.
