Additional Safety Instructions

For Router Tables

1.HAND POSITIONING. Never pass your hands directly over or in front of the cutter. As one hand approaches cutter, move it in an arc motion away from the cutter to the outfeed side and reposition that hand beyond the cutter.

2.STOCK LENGTH. Do not rout stock shorter than 12 inches without special fixtures or jigs. Where practical, rout longer stock and cut to size.

3.BLIND CUT WHENEVER POSSIBLE. This keeps the cutters on the underside of the workpiece and provides a distance guard for the operator.

4.TEST ROTATION. Always rotate the spindle by hand, with the machine unplugged, to test any new setup to ensure proper cutter clear- ance before starting the machine.

5.KEEP ANY UNUSED PORTION OF THE CUTTER BELOW THE TABLE SURFACE.

6.DEPTH OF CUT. Never remove too much material in one pass. Several light passes are safer and give a cleaner finish.

7.IF AT ANYTIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC- ING DIFFICULTIES PERFORMING THE INTENDED OPERATION, STOP USING THE ROUTER TABLE! Then contact our service department or ask a qualified expert how the operation should be performed.

8.SAFETY DEVICES. The use of push sticks as safety devices in some applications is smart; in others it can be quite dangerous. If the push stick comes in contact with the cutter on the end grain, it can fly out of your hand like a bullet, potentially causing seri- ous injury.

We recommend using some type of fixture, jig, or hold-down device as a safer alterna- tive. Use a guard or other type of protective device at all times.

9.ALWAYS FEED AGAINST THE ROTA- TION OF THE CUTTER.

10.DO NOT REMOVE THE RETRACTABLE GUARD ON THE FENCE.

11.BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN WOODS MAY CAUSE AN ALLERGIC REACTION in people and animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. Make sure you know what type of wood dust you will be exposed to, the possibility of a allergic reaction and always wear an approved respirator.

12.READ AND UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL SUPPLIED WITH THE ROUTER TO BE INSTALLED IN THIS TABLE.

13.DO NOT REACH UNDER THE ROUTER TABLE WHILE THE ROUTER IS PLUGGED IN OR RUNNING.

Unfamiliarity with this manual could result in serious personal injury. Read and become familiar with the contents of this manual, including all the safety warnings.
