15. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Wear oil-resistant rubber-soled foot-
wear. Keep the floor clear of oil, scrap, and other debris.
16. MAINTAIN TOOLS PROPERLY. ALWAYS keep tools clean and in good working order. Follow instruc-
tions for lubricating and changing accessories.
17. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Check for alignment of moving parts, jamming, breakage, improper
mounting, or any other conditions that may affect the tool’s operation. Any part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced before use.
18. MAKE THE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF. Use padlocks and master switches and ALWAYS remove safety
keys.
19. DO NOT operate the tool if you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication that may affect your
ability to properly use the tool.
20. USE SAFETY GOGGLES AT ALL TIMES that comply with ANSI Z87.1. Normal safety glasses only have
impact resistant lenses and are not designed for safety. Wear a face or dust mask when working in a dusty environ-
ment. Use ear protection such as plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
1. ALWAYS USE THE BLADE GUARD, riving knife and anti-kickback fingers on all “through-sawing” opera-
tions. Through-sawing operations are those when the blade cuts completely through the workpiece as in ripping or
crosscutting.
2. AVOID KICKBACKS by keeping the blade sharp and the rip fence parallel to the saw blade. Make sure the riv-
ing knife, anti-kickback fingers, and the blade guard are in place, aligned properly and functional. Do not release a
work piece before passing it completely through the saw blade. Do not rip a work piece that is twisted/warped or a
work piece that has a straight edge to guide it along the rip fence. Do not attempt to pull the workpiece backwards
out of a cut while the blade is still turning.
3. ALWAYS HOLD THE WORK firmly against the miter gauge or fence.
4. NEVER PERFORM FREE-HAND OPERATIONS, meaning never only use your hands to support or guide
the workpiece. Always use either the fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the workpiece.
5. BE MINDFUL OF BODY POSITION. Never have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.
6. NEVER REACH BEHIND or over the saw blade with either hand for any reason.
7. MOVE THE RIP FENCE out of the way when crosscutting.
8. SUPPORT LARGE PANELS to minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback.
