G0605X/G0606X Extreme Series 12" Table Saw

To perform resawing operations:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the standard table insert and the

blade guard/splitter, and install the riving

knife. Install a ripping blade and a zero clear-

ance table insert. Then lower the blade below

the table surface.

3. Attach the auxiliary fence to the standard

fence and set it to the desired width.

Note: Account for blade kerf, the rough cut

made by the blade, and the inaccuracy of

the fence scale when the auxiliary fence is

installed when figuring out the correct width.

4. Place the workpiece against the fence and

slide the resaw barrier against the workpiece.

Now clamp the resaw barrier to the top of the

table saw

(see Figure 57).

5. Slide the workpiece over the blade to make

sure it moves smoothly.

6. Raise the blade approximately an inch, or

close to half the height of the workpiece

(Figure 57), whichever is less.

Always use push sticks or push paddles to

increase safety and control during opera

-

tions which require that the blade guard

and splitter must be removed from the

saw. ALWAYS replace the blade guard after

resawing is complete.

7. Plug in the table saw, turn it ON, and use a

push stick to feed the workpiece through the

blade using a slow, steady feed rate.

8. Flip the workpiece end for end, keeping the

same side against the fence, and run the

workpiece through the blade.

9. Repeat Steps 6–8 until the blade is close to

half of the height of the board to be resawn.

The ideal completed resaw cut will leave an

1

⁄8" connection when the resawing is com-

plete as shown in

Figure 57. Leaving an

1

⁄8"

connection will reduce the risk of kickback.

10. Turn OFF the table saw, then separate the

parts of the workpiece and hand plane the

remaining ridge.

11. When finished resawing, remove the resaw

barrier and auxiliary fence and

re-install the

blade guard/splitter or riving knife and stan

The danger of kickback increases relative to

the depth of a cut. Reduce the risk of kick

-

back by making multiple passes to achieve

the desired depth of cut. Failure to follow

these warnings could result in serious per

-

sonal injury.
