The following is a list of common definitions, terms and phrases used throughout this manual as they relate
to this sliding table saw and woodworking in general. Become familiar with these terms for assembling,
adjusting or operating this machine. Your safety is VERY important to us at Grizzly!
Arbor: Metal shaft extending from the drive
mechanism, to which saw blade is mounted.
Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the arbor and saw blade
to an angle between 0° and 45° to cut a bev-
eled edge onto a workpiece.
Blade Guard: Metal or plastic safety device that
mounts over the saw blade. Its function is to
prevent the operator from coming into contact
with the saw blade.
Crosscut: Cutting operation in which the cross-
cut fence is used to cut across the grain, or
across the shortest width of the workpiece.
Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that are used
to cut grooves and rabbets.
Dado Cut: Cutting operation that cuts a flat bot-
tomed groove into the face of the workpiece.
Featherboard: Safety device used to keep the
workpiece against the rip fence and against the
table surface.
Kerf: The resulting cut or gap in the workpiece
from the saw blade passing through it while
cutting.
Kickback: A dangerous event that happens if
the blade catches on the workpieces while
cutting. The force of the blade then throws the
workpiece back toward the operator with what
sounds like a horrible explosion. The danger
comes from flying stock striking the operator or
bystanders. The operator’s hands may also be
pulled into the blade during the kickback. Refer
to
Preventing Kickback on Page 14 for addi-
tional information.
Parallel: When two objects are spaced an equal
distance apart at every point along two given
lines or planes (I.e. the rip fence face is parallel
to the face of the saw blade).
Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation in which
the workpiece is not completely sawn through.
Dado and rabbet cuts are considered Non-
Through Cuts because the blade does not
protrude above the top face of the wood stock.
Perpendicular: Lines or planes that intersect
and form right angles. I.e. the blade is perpen-
dicular to the table surface.
Push Stick: Safety device used to push the
workpiece through a cutting operation. Used
most often when rip cutting thin workpieces.
Rabbet: Cutting operation that creates an
L-shaped channel along the edge of the
workpiece.
Riving Knife: Metal plate located behind the
blade maintains the kerf opening in the wood
when cutting, and helps reduce the risk of
injury from a kickback that otherwise would
result in amputation.
Straightedge: A tool with a perfectly straight
edge used to check the flatness, parallelism,
or consistency of a surface(s).
Through Cut: A sawing operation in which the
workpiece is completely sawn through.
Rip Cut: Cutting operation in which the rip fence
is used to cut with the grain, or cut across the
widest width of the workpiece.
