Anti-Kickback Pawls
The anti-kickback pawls allow the workpiece to
travel in only one direction. If the workpiece moves
backwards, such as during a kickback, the pawls
will dig into the workpiece to slow or stop it.
To work properly, the pawls must freely return to
their resting position with contact to the table
surface after pivoting.
If the pawls fail to return to the resting position, the
pivot spring may have been dislodged or broken
and will need to be fixed/replaced.
Removing Pawls
You might remove the pawls if you are concerned
about them scratching a delicate workpiece, or if
you believe that they will obstruct a narrow
workpiece and cause feeding difficulty or loss of
control. Use your best judgment before removing
the pawls, as they are provided for your safety.
1. Loosen the knob on top of the spreader several
turns, and then remove the blade guard
assembly.
2. Press the button on the block that holds the
pawls, and then remove the pawls from the
spreader.
3. Re-install the blade guard onto the spreader,
making sure the front and back pins on the
blade guard slide all the way into the spreader
slots, then tighten the top knob to secure the
guard.
WARNING:
DO NOT remove the pawls during normal operations unless
absolutely necessary. In most situations, removing the pawls will increase your risk
of serious personal injury in the event of a kickback.
