BLADE GUARD AND SPLITTER USE
The blade guard assembly provided with
delta saws, as shown in Fig. S1 must be used for all
through-sawing operations. The splitter prevents the kerf
from closing and binding the blade, causing kickback. The
anti-kickback pawls (A) Fig. S1 prevent the workpiece and
cut-off piece from being thrown back at the operator. The
plastic guard prevents dust and debris from being thrown
at the operator. To use the guard properly:
1. Make sure the splitter is aligned with the blade
as described in the section "BLADE GUARD AND
SPLITTER ASSEMBLY AND ALIGNMENT."
2. Replace or sharpen the anti-kickback pawls when
they become dull.
3. Keep the guard clean for visibility and free motion.
4. Do not use solvent or lubricants on the guard as they
may severely damage the plastic.
5. Use caution when feeding workpieces that may
catch on the guard and cause a bind or force
the guard into the blade (such as when cutting
moulding).
CROSS-CUTTING
Cross-cutting requires the use of the miter gauge to posi-
tion and guide the work. Before starting the cut, raise the
blade so it is about 1/8" (3.2mm) higher than the top of
the workpiece. Place the work against the miter gauge
and advance both the gauge and work toward the saw
blade, as shown in Fig. S2. The miter gauge may be
used in either table slot. Start the cut slowly and hold
the work firmly against the miter gauge and the table.
Keep both hands on the miter gauge and workpiece. Do
not touch the cut-off piece. Feed the workpiece steadily
through the blade until the workpiece is completely cut.
Shift the workpiece slightly sideways away from the
blade, then pull the workpiece and miter guage back to
the starting position. Remove the workpiece, then use a
push stick to push the cut-off piece past the blade and
off the table before beginning the next cut.
For added safety and convenience the miter gauge can
be fitted with an auxiliary wood-facing (C), as shown in
Fig. S3, that should be at least 1 inch higher than the
maximum depth of cut, and should extend out 12 inches
or more to one side or the other depending on which miter
gauge slot is being used. This auxiliary wood-facing (C)
can be fastened to the front of the miter gauge by using
two wood screws (A) through the holes provided in the
miter gauge body and into the wood-facing.
