spreader is in proper alignment with the saw blade. If ripping at the time, check to see if rip fence
is parallel with the saw blade. Readjust as indicated.
g.
NEVER gang crosscut — lining up more than one workpiece in front of the blade (stacked
vertically or horizontally outward on the table) and then pushing thru saw blade. The blade could
pick up one or more pieces and cause a binding or loss of control and possible injury.
h.
DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off material that may become trapped inside the blade guard
while the saw is running. This could endanger your hands or cause a kickback. Turn saw ―OFF‖
and wait until blade stops.
KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
Dull, gummy or improperly sharpened or set cutting tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the
saw, or kickback at the operator. Minimize potential injury by proper cutting tool and machine
maintenance. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST
TURNING THE SAW OFF.
a.
NEVER use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire
wheels or buffing wheels.
b.
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
c.
Crosscutting operations are more conveniently worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood
facing is attached to the miter gauge.
d.
Make sure the top of the cutting tool rotates toward you when standing in normal operating
position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep
the cutting tool as low as possible for the operation being performed. Keep all guards in place
whenever possible.
e.
Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for an operating speed less than 5000 R.P.M.
Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for which the saw was designed. For
greatest safety and efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter blade for which the saw is
designed, since under these conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.
f.
Make sure the table insert is flush or slightly below the table surface on all sides except for rear
side. NEVER operate the saw unless the proper insert is installed.
THINK SAFETY
SAFETY IS A COMBINATION OF OPERATOR COMMON SENSE AND ALERTNESS AT ALL
TIMES WHEN THE TABLE SAW IS BEING USED.
Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your table saw) to become common place.
Always remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can
result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles that comply with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on
package) before commencing power tool operation.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
•
Lead from lead-based paints,
•
Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
•
Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
