Continue pushing the workpiece
toward the back of the saw until
it clears the anti-kickback pawls
on the spreader. Turn off the
motor. Do not attempt to remove
the cut-off portion until the blade
has come to a complete stop.
When ripping pieces longer
than approximately 4 feet, use
rollers, an out-feed table or a
similar support to prevent the
workpiece from dropping off the
back of the table.
When making non-through cuts, the blade guard and spreader must be removed. For these cuts, install the
riving knife (except when making dado cuts) and use one or more featherboards to hold down the workpiece
and help prevent kickback. (See page 76 for instructions on making a featherboard.) The featherboard should
be clamped to the rip fence. Alternatively, the featherboard can be clamped to an extender board that is
clamped or screwed to the rip fence as shown in Fig. 37. As shown in the illustration, a second featherboard
can be clamped to the top of the table
and against the left side of the workpiece
to hold the workpiece against the rip
fence.
