Rip Cuts; Bevel Ripping - Delta 36-6013 Manual De Instrucciones

RIP CUTS

• Rip cutting: Rip cutting is performed predominantly in a
parallel direction with the grain of the wood.
• Make sure blade is parallel to miter gauge slot prior to
cutting. Instructions for adjustment on page 24.
1.
Remove miter gauge.
2.
Make sure bevel angle is set to 0º.
3.
Set blade to correct height for workpiece. 4.
Install rip fence and lock it down parallel with and at
desired distance from blade.
5.
Keep fingers at least 6 inches from the blade at all
times. When the hand cannot be safely out between the
blade and the rip fence, select a larger workpiece, or
use a push stick and other cutting aids, as needed, to
control the workpiece.
6.
Make sure the workpiece is clear of the blade (at least 1
inch or 25 mm away) before starting the saw.
7.
Turn saw on.
8.
Hold the workpiece flat on the table and against the
fence (A). The workpiece must have a straight edge
against the fence and must not be warped, twisted or
bowed. See proper hand position in Figure 15.
9.
Let blade build up to full speed before moving
workpiece into the blade.
10.
Both hands can be used while starting the cut as long
as hands remain 6 inches from the blade.
11. Keep the workpiece against the table and fence and
slowly feed the workpiece rearward all the way through
the saw blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the
workpiece into the blade.

BEVEL RIPPING

Bevel ripping is the same as ripping except the bevel angle (A)
is set to an angle other than 0°. When making a bevel rip cut,
place the fence on the right side of the blade so that the blade
is tilted away from the fence and hands.
See Figure 16.
• DO NOT attempt compound miter cuts, with blade beveled
and miter fence angled, until you are thoroughly familiar
with the basic cuts and understand how to avoid kickback.
• Avoid bevel rip cuts with majority of material on left side of
blade.
MAKING CUTS
12.
Use the push stick and any other cutting aids, as
needed, to hold the workpiece against the table and
fence, and push the workpiece past the blade. A push
stick is included with this saw, and instructions are
included to make additional push sticks and other
cutting aids.
13.
Do not push or hold onto the free or cut-off side of the
workpiece.
14.
Continue pushing the workpiece until it is clear of
the blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the
workpiece into the blade.
15.
When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to
come to a complete stop before removing workpiece
from table.
