• If the work to be ripped is narrow, it is safer to
use a push stick, rather than the hands, to feed it
into the blade. Push sticks with non-slip grippers
can be purchased, but shop-made push sticks
work just as well. When ripping extremely narrow
stock that may not clear the width of the blade
guard, or very thin material such as paneling,
which may slip between the underside of the
fence and the table surface, a strip of wood as an
auxiliary guide can be attached to the fence.
1. Review Preventing Kickback, and take the necessary precautions to reduce the likelihood of
kickback.
2. If using natural wood, joint one long edge of the workpiece on a jointer. This provides a flat,
consistent surface that can slide along the fence, which minimizes chances of the workpiece
moving during the cut, and reduces the risk of kickback.
3. Disconnect and lockout power to the saw!
4. Verify that the blade guard and spreader is installed.
5. Set the fence to the desired width of cut on the scale.
6. Adjust the blade height so the highest saw tooth extends no more than 1/4" above the
workpiece.
7. Set up safety devices such as featherboards or
other anti-kickback devices.
8. Rotate the blade to make sure it does not come
into contact with any of the safety devices.
9. Connect the saw to the power source, turn it
ON, and allow it to reach full speed.
Note: The jointed edge of the
workpiece must slide against the fence during the
cutting operation.
WARNING:
Serious injury can be caused by kickback. Kickback is a
high-speed ejection of stock from the table saw toward an operator. The operator or
bystanders may be struck by flying stock, or the operator's hands can be pulled into
the blade during the kickback.
