FEATHERBOARDS

• To avoid kickbacks and slips into the. blade, make sure

the rip fence is parallel to the sawblade.

° Before thru-sawing, check the anti-kickback pawls.

(See Basic _.aw Ope_t!o_l :,rU+slr!g3_ne,Rip Fence?'

- The pawls must stop a kickback_once it has started°

Replace or sharpen anti-kickback pawls when points

become dullo ++

° Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materials may

be cut on your saw+ However, since these are usually

quite hard and slippery, the anti-kickback pawls may

not stop a kickback. Therefore, be especially careful in

your setup and cutting procedures.

While thru-sawing.

. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, always

push forward on the section of the workpiece between

the sawblade and the rip fence. Never push forward on

the piece being cut off.+

Additional Safety Instructions For:

Crosscut Type Cuts.

Before starting.

• Never use the rip fence whan crosscutting.

oAn auxiliary wood facing attached to the miter gauge can

help prevent work'piece twisting and throwbacks. Attach it

to the holes provided. Make the facing long enough and

big enough to support your work,, Make sure, however, it

will not interferewith the sawblade guard.

o Use jigs or fixtures to help hold any piece too small to

extend across the full length of the miter gauge face

during the cut. This lets you properly hold the miter

gauge and workpiece and helps keep your hands away

from the blade.

While cutting.

° To avoidblade contact,always ho_ the mitergauge as shown

in "BasicSaw Operations- Using The Miter Gauge".
