RESAWING
RESAWING is known as ripping a piece of wood through
its thickness. NOTE: To RESAW a piece of wood wider
than 3-9/16 in.... it will be necessary to remove the blade
guard ... and use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK
SUPPORT. (See "Work Helpers").
Do not attempt to resawBOWED or WARPED material.
Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece will SLIDE
EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS without
BINDING between the two fences.
Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table
because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip properly.
Place a small block or wood between the bottom edge of
the table and the "C" clamp.
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY ...
1. DO NOT "BACK UP" (REVERSE FEEDING) WHILE
RESAWlNG BECAUSE THIS COULD CAUSE A
KICKBACK.
Z INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON
COMPLETION OF THE RESAWlNG OPERATION.
