For beveling and chamfering operations, follow the same
procedure as for jointing and planing described on pages 10 and
11, Before performing these operations make sure the surface of

the work piece that contacts the fence is flat and smooth. Main­
tain firm control of the work piece at all times holding it firmly

against fence surface and table surfaces.

Use hold down/push blocks for wood under 3 in. wide. Position
them so you have control of the work piece at all times and so
they do not contact the guard or the cutler head.
