Before using the table saw, polish the tabletop with an automotive polishing wax to keep it
clean and make it easier to slide the workpiece.
There are two basic types of table saw cuts: ripping and crosscutting, in general, ripping
is cutting with the grain along the length of the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting either
across the width or across the grain of the workpiece. However, with man-made materials
this distinction can be difficult to make. Therefore, cutting a piece of material to a different
width is ripping and cutting across the short dimension is crosscutting. Neither ripping nor
crosscutting may be done safely freehand. Ripping requires the use of the rip fence and
crosscutting requires the use of the mitre gauge. Never use the rip fence and the mitre
gauge at the same time during the cutting operation.
WARNING: Never use more than one rip fence or a combiration of a mitre gauge and
a rip fence at the same time during a cutting operation.
