Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws

1.USE GUARDS, splitter and anti-kickback fingers whenever possible during sawing operations. Always use safety devices when ripping and crosscutting

2.NEVER ATTEMPT TO CUT “FREE- HAND”. Always make cuts with your work- piece set firmly against the fence or miter gauge while cutting.

3.NEVER USE EXCESSIVE FORCE when sawing. Doing this greatly increases the chances of personal injury and motor over- load caused by jamming and/or kickback.

4.ALWAYS USE A PUSHSTICK for ripping narrow stock. Refer to the Operations Section of this manual for specific informa- tion regarding pushsticks and other safety accessories.

5.NEVER STAND with any part of your body in direct line with the saw blade.

6.NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE a stalled blade while the saw is running.

7.IF THERE IS ANY doubt as to the stability or integrity of the material to be cut, don’t attempt to cut it.

8.NEVER REACH OVER the blade, or attempt awkward cuts that compromise your ability to control the movement of your workpiece. Keep hands well away from the saw blade.

9.NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE a stalled blade while the saw is running.

10.AVOID KICKBACKS by ensuring that your blade is sharp, your fence is parallel to the blade, safety devices are in place, and that material to be cut is free from warps or twists.

11.ALWAYS PROVIDE ADEQUATE support at the rear and the sides of the table for extra-long or extra-wide materials.

12.NEVER RAISE THE BLADE more than 18" above the height of the material you plan to cut.

Like all power tools, there is danger associ- ated with the Model G1022 family of table saws. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this tool with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury.

No list of safety guidelines can be com- plete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to follow guidelines could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment or poor work results.
