Additional Safety Rules

e. NEVER place your face or body in line with the cutting tool.

•NEVER place your fingers and hands in the path of the sawblade or other cutting tool.

•NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with either hand to hold down or support the workpiece, remove wood scraps, or for any other reason. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where sudden slip could cause fingers or hand to move into a sawblade or other cutting tool.

•DO NOT perform any operation “FREEHAND” — always use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the work.

•NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting or the miter gauge when ripping. DO NOT use the rip fence as a length stop.

•NEVER hold onto or touch the “free end” of the workpiece or a “free piece” that is cut off, while power is “ON” and/or the sawblade is rotating.

•Shut “OFF” the saw and disconnect the power cord when removing the table insert, changing the cutting tool, removing or replacing the blade guard, or making adjustments.

•Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of the saw table for wider or long workpieces.

•Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materials may be cut on your saw. However, since these are usually quite hard and slippery, the anti-kickback pawls may not stop a kickback. Therefore, be especially attentive to following proper set-up and cutting procedures for ripping. Do not stand, or permit anyone else to stand, in line with a potential kickback.

f. If you stall or jam the sawblade in the workpiece, turn saw “OFF”, remove the workpiece from the sawblade, and check to see if the sawblade is parallel to the table slots or grooves and if the spreader is in proper alignment with the sawblade. If ripping at the time, check to see if rip fence is parallel with the sawblade. Readjust as indicated.

g. NEVER gang crosscut — lining up more than one work- piece in front of the blade (stacked vertically, or horizontally

outward on the table) and then pushing thru sawblade. The blade could pick up one or more pieces and cause a binding or loss of control and possible injury.

h. DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off material that may become trapped inside the blade guard while the saw is running. This could endanger your hands or cause a kick- back. Turn saw “OFF” and wait until blade stops.

11. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS

Dull, gummy or improperly sharpened or set cutting tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the saw, or kickback at the operator. Minimize potential injury by proper cutting tool and machine maintenance. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE SAW OFF.

a. NEVER use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels, fric- tion wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels.

b. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

c. Crosscutting operations are more conveniently worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is attached to the miter gauge. (See Page 22 & 23).

d. Make sure the top of the cutting tool rotates toward you when standing in normal operating position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed pro- perly. Keep the cutting tool as low as possible for the oper- ation being performed. Keep all guards in place whenever possible.

•Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for an operating speed less than 4800 R.P.M. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for which the saw was designed. For greatest safety and efficiency when rip- ping, use the maximum diameter blade for which the saw is designed, since under these conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.

e. Make sure the table insert is flush or slightly below the table surface on all sides except for rear side. NEVER oper- ate the saw unless the proper insert is installed.

NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THAT APPEAR

ON THE FRONT OF YOUR TABLE SAW.

WARNING

For Your Own Safety - Read and Understand

owner's manual before operating saw.

Unplug saw before making adjustments, repairs, or storing.

Securely fasten tool base to stable platform or workbench.

Wear eye protection; earplugs and dust mask as needed.

Know how to shut off tool in an emergency. Wait for blade to stop before removing jammed or cut-off workpiece.

Know how to avoid risk of KICKBACK. Do not press workpiece against side of spinning blade.

When “Thru Sawing”, adjust depth of cut just above workpiece thickness.

Do not stand in front of spinning saw blade. Keep your body and hands to either side of blade. Never reach over the spinning blade.

Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.

Always use the blade guard with spreader for all “Thru-Sawing” operations. Spreader must be aligned with blade and kickback pawls must be sharp and spring loaded.

When ripping, fence must be parallel to blade. Feed force applied to workpiece must be between blade and fence. Use “Push-Stick” when ripping narrow workpieces.

Do not perform any operation FREEHAND. Use miter gauge for crosscutting. Do not allow loose cut-off pieces to be wedged between spinning blade and fence.

Make certain wide or long workpieces are supported by auxiliary stands. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
