OPERATIONS
Your safety is important. To preventing work-piece kick-
back, slide the edge shoe into sliding panel when
needed.
The edge shoe can slide into the front or rear portion of
sliding panel.
Rip Cutting
The sliding panel saw has the capability of rip cutting
full size panels. The sliding panel removes the burden
of sliding a large and heavy panel over a stationary
table surface.
This saw also has the capability of rip cutting smaller
boards, using the machine as a traditional table saw.
Smaller, lighter boards are easier to slide across the
stationary cast iron table surface to the right of the saw
blade.
Determine which cutting operation will be best suited
for the workpiece to be ripped.
To use the sliding table, read the instructions titled
"Rip cutting with the sliding panel."
To use the machine as a traditional table saw, skip
ahead to "Rip cutting using the traditional table saw
technique."
Rip cutting with the sliding panel:
1. Mount the crosscut table to the sliding panel.
2. Slide and secure the crosscut table to the end of the
sliding table opposite the sliding table handle.
3. Install the crosscut fence in the guide pin holes and
lock it in place with the knurled nut.
Note First, drop the crosscut fence into the forward
guide pin hole, turn the "Z"lock plate to align the
fence, then tighten the knurled nut.
4. Set either flip stop to the desired width-of-cut.
5. Load the workpiece onto the table saw.
6. Mount the hold down arm onto the stud and lock the
work-piece in place.
7. Once all the necessary safety precautions have been
taken, perform the cutting operation.
Rip cutting using the traditional table saw
technique:
1. Slide the crosscut table out of the way.
2. Lock the sliding panel into a stationary position.
3. Position the rip fence to the desired width-of-cut.
4. Once all the necessary safety precautions have been
taken, load the workpiece onto the table saw and
perform the cutting operation.
Crosscutting
With the crosscut fence mounted in the forward
