  • Patent number: 4603612
    Abstract: The attachment includes a body which rests on the rip rail of the saw and which is guided slidably along the rail by two depending legs and by two pivoted arms. The leading end of one of the legs engages the trailing end of the board to push the board into and past the saw blade while the lower end of one of the arms presses the board downwardly against the table to prevent the board from flying upwardly. The hold-down arm is spring-biased into pressing engagement with the board and may swing upwardly and downwardly to accommodate boards of different thicknesses.
