Before Each Use

Inspect your saw,

-To avoid injury from accidental starting, turn the switch off, unplug the saw, and remove the switch key before raising or removing the guard, changing the cutting tool. changing the setup, or adjusting anything Make sure switch is in OFF position before plugging in,

•Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, saw stability, and any other conditions that may affect the way the saw works

•If any part is missing, bent or broken in any way. or any electrical part does not work properly, turn the saw off and unplug the saw

°Replace damaged or missing parts before using the saw again,

*Keep guards in place and in working order

. Use the sawblade guard, spreader and anti-kickback pawls for any thru-sawing (whenever the blade comes through the top of the workplace) Make sure the anti- kickback pawls work properly Make sure the spreader is in line with sawblade (See "Assembly-Aligning Blade Guard" section)

°Remove adjusting keys and wrenches Form a habit of checking for and removing keys and adjusting wrenches from table top before turning saw on

o Make sure all clamps and locks are tight and no parts have excessive play

To Avoid Injury From Jams, Slips Or Thrown Pieces (Kickbacks Or Throwbacks)

Inspect Your Blade.

•Choose the right blade or cutting accessory for the material and the type of cutting you plan to do.

o Use The Right Tool. Don't lorce tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed for

. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cutoff wheels, friction wheels (metal cutting blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels, They can fly apart explosively

•Cut only wood, wood like or plastic materials Do not cut metal

. Choose and inspect your cutting tool carefully:

-Toavoid cutting tool failure and thrown shrapnel (broken pieces of blade), use only 10" or smaIler blades or other cutting tools marked for speeds of 5000 rpm or higher

-Always use unbroken, balanced blades designed to fit this saw's5/8 inch arbor

-When thru-sawing (making cuts where the blade comes through the workpiece top), always use a 10 inch diameter blade This keeps the spreader closest to the blade

-Do not over tighten arbor nut Use arbor wrenches to "snug" it securely,

-Use only sharp blades with properly set teeth. Corn suit a professional blade sharpener when in doubt

-Keep blades clean of gum and resin

-Never use the saw without the proper blade insert

Inspect your work area. ,, Keep work area clean,

. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents Floor must not be slippery from wax or sawdust

oTo avoid burns or other fire damage, never use the saw nearflammabte liquids, vapors or gases

•To avoid injury, don't do layout, assembly, or setup work on the table while blade is spinning It could cut

!or throw anything hitting the blade

Plan yourwork

•Use the right toot Don't force tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed for

Inspect your workpieceo

•Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be ctJt,

. When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your work so it will not slip and pinch the blade:

°A piece of molding for example, must lie flat or be held by a fixture or jig that will not let it twist, rock or slip while being cut Use jigs or fixtures where needed to

prevent workpiece from shifting

• Use a different, better suited type of tool for work that can'tbe made stable

Plan your cut,

°To avoid kickbacks and throwbacks - when a part or all of the workpiece binds on the blade and is thrown vio- lently back toward the front of the saw:

-Never cut Freehand. Always use either a rip fence, miter gauge or fixture to position and guide the work,

so it won'ttwist or bind on the blade and kick back

-Make sure there's no debris between the workpiece and its supports

-Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward

workpieces,

o Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc) for any workpieces {arge enough to tip when not held down to the table top Never use another person as a substitute for a table extension, or as additional sup-

port for a workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic saw table, or to help feed, support or pull the

workplace

•Never confine the piece being cut off, that is, the piece not against the rip fence, mitel gauge or fixture Never hold it, clamp it. touch it, or use length stops against it It must be free to move If confined, it could get wedged against the blade and cause a kickback or

throwback

*Never cut more than one workpiece at a time

o Never tum your table saw "ON" before clearing every- thing except the workpiece and related support devices off the table
