using the Auxiliary Fence and push
Block
1. place the auxiliary fence on the table and
clamp it to the fence at both ends, then adjust
the distance between the auxiliary fence and
the blade—this determines how wide the
workpiece will be ripped (see
Figure 89).
2. install the blade guard, then remove the
spreader pawls, as explained on
page 39, so
they do not interfere with the push block lip.

result in serious personal injury or death.
Turn the saw

ing could result in serious personal injury.

4. turn the saw
ON
, then begin ripping the
workpiece using a push stick for side sup-
port.
as the workpiece nears the end of the cut,
place the push block on the auxiliary fence
with the lip directly behind the workpiece,
then release the push stick just before it is
even with the blade (see
Figure 91).
guide the workpiece the rest of the way
through the cut with the push block, then re-
install the pawls on the spreader when cutting
operations are finished.
