on the front rail, or by measuring the distance
between the blade (B) and fence (A). Stand out
of line with the saw blade and workpiece to
avoid sawdust and splinters coming off the blade
or a kickback, if one should occur.
If the work piece does not have a straight edge,
nail an auxiliary straight edged board on it to
provide one against the fence. To cut properly,
the board must make good contact with the
table. If it is warped, turn the hollow side down.
In ripping, use one hand to hold the board down
against the fence or fixture, and the other to
push it into the blade between the blade and the
fence. If the workpiece is narrower than 6" or
shorter than 12", use a push stick or push block
to push it through between the fence and saw
blade (Figure 38). Never push in a location such
that the pushing hand is in line with the blade.
Move the hand serving as a hold-down a safe
distance from the blade as the cut nears
completion. For very narrow ripping where a
push stick cannot be used, use a push block or
auxiliary fence. Always push the workpiece
completely past the blade at the end of a cut to
minimize the possibility of a kickback.

When ripping long boards, use a support at the
front of the table, such as a roller stand, and a
support or "tailman" at the rear as shown in
Figure 39.
Never use the rip fence beyond the point where
the carriage is flush with the end of the rails.
Have the blade extend about 1/8" above the top
of the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this
point can be hazardous.
Resawing
Resawing is a ripping operation in which thick
boards are cut into thinner ones. Narrow boards
up to 3" can be resawed in one pass. Wider
boards up to 6" must be resawed in two passes.
In resawing wider boards, adjust the blade
height so as to overlap the two cuts by 1/2" as
shown in Figure 40. Too deep a first cut can
result in binding and possible kickbacks on the
second cut. Always use the same side of the
board against the fence for both cuts.

Crosscutting
Crosscutting is where the workpiece is fed cross
grain into the saw blade using the miter gauge to
support and position the workpiece (Figure 41).
