Skil 3305-01 manual

Use the fence to guide and support the work past the saw blade. Unsupported cuts will shift and may cause the work to be thrown backward.

Be aware of proximity of you hand/fingers to the cutting tool. Non-through cuts are “blind cuts”, use push sticks to move the work through the cutter.

Use the proper table insert for the width and diameter of the dado blade or molding head. Dado blade stack or molding head is wider than the slot of the standard table insert. These blades will strike and damage the standard insert and cause severe injury by throwing the insert against the operator.

Do not bevel with dado blades or molding heads. These accessories are designed for perpendicular non-through cutting.

Do not elevate the dado blade so that the hub protrudes above slot of the table insert. Contact with hub will cause the workpiece to be unstable as it passes through the cut and possibly kickback.

Don’t force the workpiece through the dado blade. Dado blades create wide non-through cuts that require the operator to feed the work slowly and use of feather boards and positive downward pressure on the workpiece to avoid loss of control.

Do not back up or pull the workpiece back (reverse feed) when resawing. Pulling the workpiece backward could cause kickback.

Table saws are highly versatile products capable of performing variety of operations. There are too many applications to be fully addressed in this manual. Go to the library, home center, hardware or bookstore to learn about the many applications of a table saw; we suggest obtaining woodworking books like “The Table Saw Book” by Richard J. de Cristoforo or similar publications addressing your particular needs.

!	WARNING	Some dust created by power sanding,
		sawing, grinding, drilling, and other

construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

•Lead from lead-based paints,

•Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

•Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
