Ripping
"Ripping" means cutting with the grain of the
wood stock. For plywood and other processed
wood, ripping simply means cutting down the
length of the workpiece. Beveled rip cuts may be
performed by tilting the table.
To make a rip cut:
1. Adjust fence to match width of cut on your
workpiece, then lock fence in place.
2. Adjust blade guide assembly to proper height
above workpiece.
3.
After all safety precautions have been met,
turn bandsaw ON and wait for it to come to
full speed. Slowly feed workpiece into blade
until blade is completely through workpiece.
Figure 67 shows an example of a ripping
operation.

NEVER place fingers or hands in the line of
cut. If you slip, your hands or fingers may go
into the blade and may be cut.
ALWAYS use a push stick when ripping narrow
pieces. Failure to follow these warnings may
result in amputation or laceration injuries!
