Auxiliary Fence
the auxiliary fence is necessary if you are
resawing a workpiece that is taller than it is wide.
it should be no less than
1 ⁄
2
" shorter than the
board to be resawn.
components Needed for the Auxiliary Fence:
Wood*
3 ⁄
4
" x (height) x length of Fence ............1
Flat head screws m8-1.25 x 25 (not included) .4
hex nuts m8-1.25 (included) .............................4
Flat Washers 8mm (included) ............................4
* Only use furniture grade plywood, kiln dried hard-
wood, or or HDPE plastic to prevent warping.
Tools Needed for the Auxiliary Fence:
table saw ..........................................................1
Jointer and planer ....................... recommended
Clamps ............................................... 2 minimum
drill and drill Bits ................................................1
C-Clamps ............................................................2
Center punch or nail ..........................................1
To build the auxiliary fence:
1. Cut the auxiliary fence board to size as speci-
fied above. if you are using hardwood, cut
the board oversize, then joint and plane the
board to the correct size to make sure the
board is square and flat.
2. pull the end cap off of the standard fence,
then remove four hex nuts, flat washers,
t-bolts and the fence face from the fence
body.
3. place the auxiliary fence next to the open
side of the fence, clamp it in place, then flip
the assembly over.
4. reach through the access holes and use a
center punch or nail to mark the four mount-
ing hole locations onto the auxiliary fence.
5. remove the auxiliary fence, then pre-drill and
countersink four mounting holes into it.
6. thread the flat head screws through the
auxiliary fence and into the hex nuts and flat
washers inside the standard fence body, and
tighten securely, as shown in
Figure 73.
Resawing Operations
the table saw motor is pushed to its limits when
resawing. if the motor starts to bog down, slow
down your feed rate. motor overloading and blade
wear can be reduced by using a ripping blade.
ripping blades are designed to clear the sawdust
quickly.
components Needed for Resawing:
zero Clearance insert .........................................1
ripping Blade 10" ...............................................1
riving Knife ........................................................1
Clamps ...............................................................2
shop made auxiliary Fence ...............................1
shop made resaw Barrier .................................1
you may experience kickback during this
procedure. Stand to the side of the blade
and wear a full face shield to prevent injury
when resawing.
To perform resawing operations:
1. disConneCt saW From poWer!
2. remove the standard table insert and the
blade guard/spreader assembly.
3. install a ripping blade, install the riving knife,
lower the blade below the table surface, then
re-install the standard insert.
do not use the standard insert if it has lost the
zero clearance feature by modification; if so
you must install the optional model t21880.
