2. Make sure the board is at least 10" long and 1" wide to prevent the board from tilting while cutting.
2. Make sure the board is at least 10" long and at least 3/8" wide to prevent the board from tilting while cutting.
3. Check the cut gauge on the front table. Make sure you know how much material is being removed. Never adjust the rear table.

7. Position your hands safely on the material and use a push stick if needed. A push stick is needed if your material is less than 2" thick. This will keep your fingers away from the cutter head.

2. Make sure the board is at least 10" long x 2" wide to prevent the board from tilting while facing.
3. Check the cut gauge. When facing you normally want to take off a small amount of material per pass due to the large surface area.
