9 OPERATING THE MACHINE
For safety reasons, verify that the operator has read the section entitled general safety
guidelines for the table saw before operating this saw. Verify the following before every time
the table saw is used:
1. The blade is tight.
2. The bevel angle locking handle is locked.
3. If ripping, the rip fence locking knob is tight, and the fence is parallel to the miter gauge
groove and the blade.
4. If crosscutting, the miter gauge knob is tight.
5. The blade guard and splitter are in place, and are working properly.
6. Safety glasses are worn.
7. Failure to adhere to these safety rules will greatly increase the chances of injury.
Before using the table saw, polish the tabletop with an automotive polishing wax in order to
keep it clean, and to make it easier to slide the work piece.
There are two basic types of table saw cuts: ripping and crosscutting. Ripping refers to cutting
along the length of the grain and the work piece. Crosscutting refers to either cutting across
the width or across the grain of the work piece. This distinction may be hard to make with man
made materials. Therefore, cutting a piece of material to a different width is ripping, and
cutting across the short dimension is crosscutting. Neither operation can be performed safely
freehand: ripping requires the use of the rip fence, and crosscutting requires the use of the
miter gauge. Never use the rip fence and the miter gauge at the same time during the cutting
operation.
Do not use more than one rip fence or a combination of a miter gauge and a
rip fence at the same time during a cutting operation.
