G9959/G9977 Wood Mill
Whenever clamping a workpiece to the Wood
Mill’s table, remember these important safety
guidelines:
• Make sure the interlocking components
of the step clamps engage fully and that
the step clamp lays evenly on the work-
piece. See Figures 18 and 19.
• Always have a minimum of 3 clamping
devices when securing the workpiece to
the table as in Figure 20.
• Check clearance by moving the table
(with the machine unplugged) along the
intended path. Obstructions could lead
to a “crash” creating an unsafe condition
and result in serious personal injury. See
Figure 21.
