advanced technique that requires a molding
head guard and a sr,ecial fence. See
Accessories for information on safety, instal-

heads for edging. See Cutting Aides for
information on making the special fence.
Ripping Hints
1. To extend life of table top, buy an auxil-
iary table cover (see Accessories), or make
one out of 1/4" plywood or fiberboard.
Clamp or nail to original table top, section
by section. If you use nails, nail in the four
comers to make sure blade will not contact
nails.
2. Keep table clean of chips and sawdust.
3. Use shmp blades.
4. Use the right blade for each job.
5. For workpiece with one smooth and one
rough surface, such as paneling or finished
fiberboard, cut with rough surface up so
pawls will be more likely to grab in case of
kickback.
6. _ib keep cut line accurate, periodically
check blade alignment.
7. If you must cut an irregular workpiece,
attach a sn-aight edge (see Cutting Aides).
