Push Stick and Push Block
Make the Push Stick 1 using a piece of 1 x 2 as shown (Fig. 28).
Make the Push Block 2 using pieces of 3/8" plywood 3 and 3/4"
hardwood 4 (Fig. 29). For proper use of push block, (see page 48).
The small piece of wood, 3/8" x 3/8" x 2-1/2", should be GLUED
to the plywood ... DO NOT USE NAILS. This is to prevent dulling
the sawblade in the event you mistakenly cut into the Push Block.
Position the handle in the center of the plywood and fasten
together with glue and woodscrews.
Auxiliary Fence
Make one using pieces of 3/8" pl_evood 3 and 3/4" hardwood 4.
Fasten together with glue and woodscrews (Fig. 30).
NOTE: Since the Push Block 2 is used with the Auxiliary Fence 5,
the 4-3/4" dimensions must be held identical on both the pieces.
Using The Miter Gauge
CROSSCUTTING, MITER CUTTING, BEVEL CUTTING, COM-
POUND MITER CUFFING and when RABBETING across the end
of a narrow workpiece, the MITER GAUGE is used.
For your own safety, always observe the following
safety precautions in addition to the safety
instructions on Pages 2, 3, 4 & 5+
1. Never make these cuts freehand (without using the miter gauge
or other auxiliary devices) because the blade could bind in the cut
and cause a KICKBACK or cause your fingers or hand to slip into
the biade+
2+Always lock the miter gauge secure+y when in use+
3. Remove rip fence from table during any operations which utilize
the miter gauge.
4+ Make sure Made guard is instalIed for ail "thru-sawing"
operations (when sawblade cuts entirely thru the thickness of the
workpiece). Replace guard IMMEDIATELY after completion of
dadoing, molding or rabbeting cuts.
5. Have blade extend approximately 1/8" above top of workpiece.
Additional blade exposure would increase the hazard potential+
6. Do not stand directiy in front of the blade in case of a
THROWBACK (small cut-off piece caught by the back of the blade
and thrown toward the operator). Stand to either side of the blade.
7. Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path of the
blade.
8. If blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN SWITCH OFF before
attempting to free the blade.
9. Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the workp[ece
through the cut ... to support long or heavy workpieces ... to
remove cut-off pieces of material or FOR ANY OTHER REASON.
10. Do not peck up small pieces of cut-off material from the tab+e.
REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table with a long stick.
Otherwise they could be thrown back at you by the rear of the
blade.
11. Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may
become TRAPPED inside the Made guard while the saw is
RUNNING. THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or cause a
KICKBACK. Turn the saw OFF. After the blade has stopped
turning, lift the guard and remove the piece.
12. If workpiece is warped, place the CONCAVE side DOWN. This
wiII prevent it from rocking while it is being cut+
