OPERATION
bEVEL RIPPING (FIG. 29)
This operation is the
same as ripping, except that the bevel
angle is set to an angle other than 0°.
before connecting the table saw to the
power source or operating the saw,
always inspect the guard and splitter for
proper alignment and clearance from the
saw blade. Check the alignment after
each change of bevel angle.
When bevel ripping material that is 6”
(15 cm) wide or narrower, secure the fence
on the right side of the blade only . This will
provide more space between the fence
and the saw blade for use of a push
stick . If the fence is mounted to the left,
the saw blade guard may interfere with
proper use of a push stick . When the
width of rip is 6” (15 cm) or wider, use your
right hand to feed the workpiece .
Use the left hand only to guide the workpiece .
Do not feed the workpiece using the left
hand (Fig . 38) .When the width of rip is 2”
(5 cm) to 6” (15 cm), use the push stick to
feed the workpiece (Fig . 30) .

When the width of rip is narrower than 2”
(5 cm), the push stick cannot be used
because the guard will interfere . USE the
auxiliary fence and push block . Attach an
auxiliary fence (2) to the rip fence with two
“C” clamps (available separately) (Fig . 31) .
