NOTICE

If you have never used this type of machine or equipment before, WE STRONGLY REC- OMMEND that you read books, trade maga- zines, or get formal training before begin- ning any projects. Regardless of the con- tent in this section, Grizzly Industrial will not be held liable for accidents caused by lack of training.

Your safety is important. The tips below are intended to supplement Section 1: Safety. But remember, no safety list can be comprehensive of every situation. The operator is ultimately responsible for their own safety, as well as the safety of bystanders. Every cutting operation is uniquely different and may require safety equip- ment or safety procedures not mentioned in this manual.

Please follow these tips EVERY time you use your saw:

Stand to the left of the blade line-of-cut when performing a cutting operation.

Turn OFF the saw and allow the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the cut-off piece.

Make sure that the riving knife is always aligned with the main blade before cutting!

Always position the blade guard to the cor- rect height above the workpiece.

Carefully plan each cutting operation to avoid injuries.

When you release the sliding table lock, make sure that the knob is positioned so that it will not lock the table during a cut.
