A non-through cut is a sawing operation where the blade
does not protrude above the top face of the wood stock,
as shown in Figure
+/.
Examples of non-through cuts include dadoes and
rabbets. Non-through cuts have a higher risk of injury
from kickback because the splitter and blade guard
must be removed. When making non-through cuts with a
standard blade, the riving knife MUST be installed. When
making non-through cuts with a dado blade, extreme
care, including using multiple light passes must be used,
because neither the blade guard or riving knife can be
used.

A through cut is a sawing operation in which the
workpiece is completely sawn through, as shown in Figure
+0. Examples of through cuts are rip cuts, cross cuts,
miter cuts, and beveled cuts. The blade guard assembly
MUST be used when performing through cuts.
Read, understand, and follow instructions and safety
precautions for each type of cut to reduce the risk of
injury.
