To reduce the risk of injury, always return and fasten the riving knife and blade guard assemblies to the
proper operating position for normal through sawing operations. Also, be sure the standard throat plate is back in
position
USING AUXILIARY WOOD FACING
U
Add a wood facing (U) Fig. 73 to one or both sides of the
rip fence when you perform special operations (molding
cutterhead, etc.). Depending on the fence, attach the wood
facing to the fence either with wood screws through holes
drilled in the fence, or with two clamps. For most work, 3/4"
(19 mm) stock is suitable, although an occasional job may
require 1" (25 mm) facing.
CONSTRUCTING AND USING
A FEATHERBOARD
Featherboards are used to keep the work in contact with
the fence and table (Fig. 74), and help prevent kickback.
Dimensions for making a typical featherboard are shown
in Fig. 75. Make your featherboard from a straight piece
of wood that is free of knots and cracks. Clamp the
featherboard to the fence and table so that the leading
edge of the featherboard will support the workpiece until
the cut is complete. An 8" (203 mm) high flat board can
be clamped to the rip fence and the featherboard can be
clamped to the 8" (203 mm) high board.
Use featherboards for all non-through
sawing operations where the blade guard and anti-
kickback assemblies cannot be used. Always replace
the blade guard and anti-kickback assemblies when the
non-through sawing operation is complete. Make sure
the featherboard presses only on the portion of the
workpiece in front of the blade.
