Genesis Advanced Technologies GTS10S Never reach behind blade when the saw blade is rotating

English

•Always use blade guard, splitter and anti-kickback pawls on all through cutting operations. The guard system is designed to reduce the intensity of kickback and keep your hands away from the spinning blade.

•Always secure the work piece against rip fence or miter gauge.

•Always use push stick for ripping narrow stock so your hand does not come close to the saw blade. Use a push block or feather board for non-through cuts

•Never cut freehand, which means using only your hands to support or guide the work piece. Always use rip fence or miter gauge to position and guide the work

•Stand to the side of the blade and work piece. NEVER stand or hand any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.

•Never reach behind blade when the saw blade is rotating.

•Move rip fence out of the way when cross cutting. NEVER use rip fence as a cut off gauge when cross cutting

•Keep saw blade clean and sharp. A Dull and sticky blade will increase the risk of binding in the work piece.

•Feed the work piece through AGAINST the rotation of the blade. Feeding material from the back of the saw invites an accident and can cause serious injury.

•Use support for the sides and back of the saw table when cutting wide or long work piece.

•Never cut one than one work piece at a time. Stacked work pieces can shift or bind and lead to unexpected contact with blade.

•Keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade to avoid binding or kickbacks

•Never pull the work through the spinning blade. It may cause kickback and cause serious personal injury. You can be dragged into the blades during a kickback

•Do not rip a work piece that is twisted or warped or does not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.

•Never make through cuts narrower than ½”. The blade guard system is not effective for narrow rip cuts and will not prevent kickback.

•Never attempt to free a stalled saw blade without turning off the saw and unplugging the saw from the power source.

•Avoid cutting nails or other metal pieces. Inspect for and remove all nails from the work piece.

•Always turn the saw off before unplugging the saw from power source to avoid accidental starting when re- plugging into to power source. Never leave table saw unattended while connected to a power source.

•Use only accessories rated for the speed recommended on the tool warning label or higher. The blade for this table saw must be 10” (254mm) in diameter, rated at least 4,800 rpm or higher with 5/8” arbor. Accessories running at speeds greater than rated can fly apart and cause personal injury.
