Set up the Workcentre on level ground, and kick the legs diagonally outward to ensure it is stable.
Check that it is correctly set up (as described on Page 12 Ripping Test).

RIPPING THICK WOOD
Adjust the blade height so you'll make two equal-depth cuts... eg. set it at 46mm for double ripping
90mm material

RIPPING LONG PIECES
When ripping long pieces which will overhang the rear of the table
by more than half their length, either have a friend help you, or rig
up a "tail-out" support. The Triton Multi-Stand (MSA200) is ideal for
this as it will not steer the work away from the fence.
If using a conventional roller stand make sure it is exactly
perpendicular to the direction of feed, or it will steer your work.
Try to keep the workpiece moving, even slowly, during a long rip.
Pauses can cause slight steps in the cut. A finishing cut should help.

Set the fence on the left, and lock it parallel, although you
can add between 0.5 - 1 mm to the rear fence setting for
clearance.
Lower the overhead guard as a "hold-down", lightly flexing
the anti-kickback fingers. Push the work against the fence
with the left hand, and support the off-cut with your right.
Keep both hands on your work and switch off with your
knee when you finish the cut.
The Triton Multi-Stand is ideal for supporting larger
offcuts. You can clamp a length of wood in the head for
even better support.
For ripping very large sheets, consider the Triton Sliding
Extension Table (ETA200) or use the saw hand-held.
Remove it from the chassis, undo the trigger strap, and
check the saw guard. Clamp a guide to the workpiece,
which should be supported securely on packers.
When ripping thin, flexible material wider than around
500mm, you will need additional support, such as the
3
batten shown to stop the front corner of the material
becoming snagged by the rear fence arm.
Double your maximum depth of cut by turning the wood
over, end for end, and making a second cut. If the edges
were dressed square, the two cuts should be in line.
The overhead guard cannot be fitted for the first cut.
Prevent the wood from riding up on the blade and feed
slowly. Be careful of your hand positions. They must stay
clear of the blade even if the wood kicks back. The guard
must be fitted for the second cut.
