Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws

1.BLADE GUARD. Always use the blade guard on all ''through-sawing'' operations. Through-sawing operations are those when the blade cuts completely through the workpiece.

2.KICKBACK. Be familiar with kickback. Kickback happens when the workpiece is thrown towards the operator at a high rate of speed. Until you have a clear under- standing of kickback and how it occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw!

3.WORKPIECE CONTROL. Make sure the workpiece is placed in a stable position on the table and is either supported by the rip fence or the crosscut table during cutting operations.

4.SAFETY ACCESSORIES. Use feather- boards, push sticks, hold-downs, and other safety devices to make cutting operations safe.

5.OPERATOR POSITION. Never stand or have any part of your body directly in-line with the cutting path of the saw blade.

6.REACHING OVER SAW BLADE. Never reach behind or over the blade with either hand while the saw is running. If kickback occurs while reaching over the blade, hands or arms could be pulled into the spinning saw blade.

7.USING RIP FENCE AND CROSSCUT FENCE TOGETHER. When using the crosscut fence, the workpiece should never be contacting the rip fence while the saw blade is cutting.

8.STALLED BLADE. Turn the saw off before attempting to "free" a stalled saw blade.

9.COMFORTABLE CUTTING OPERA- TIONS. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the spinning saw blade.

10.EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties per- forming the intended operation, stop using the machine! Contact our Service Department at (570) 546-9663.

11.BLADE HEIGHT. Always adjust the blade to the proper height above the workpiece (when through-cutting).

12.DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Never use blades that have been dropped or other- wise damaged; otherwise, serious person- al injury could occur.

13.PUSH STICK. Always use a push stick when ripping narrow stock.

Like all machines there is danger associated with this machine. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are over- looked or ignored, serious personal injury may occur.

No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious per- sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results.
