3. Never use damaged or deformed saw blades. Only
use sharp blades.
4. Install the saw blade in the correct orientation indi-
cated in the instructions.
5. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Never use your
hands to remove sawdust, chips or workpiece near the
saw blade or the cutting path of the saw.
6. Never reach around the blade or in back of the blade.
7. Do not use blades made from high-speed steel, abra-
sive blades, metal-cutting blades or masonry-cutting
blades. The guards of this saw are not designed to pro-
tect against the failure of such blades.
8. The use of accessories or attachments not recom-
mended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of per-
sonal injury.
GUARD-RELATED WARNINGS
1. Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working
order and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose,
damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be re-
paired or replaced.
2. Always use saw blade guard, riving knife and anti-
kickback device for every through-cutting operation. For
through-cutting operations where the saw blade cuts
completely through the thickness of the workpiece, the
guard and other safety devices help reduce the risk of
injury.
3. Immediately reattach the guarding system after com-
pleting an operation (such as rabbeting, dadoing or re-
sawing cuts) which requires removal of the guard, riv-
ing knife and/or anti-kickback device. The guard, riving
knife, and anti-kickback device help to reduce the risk
of injury.
4. Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard,
riving knife or the workpiece before the switch is turned
on. Inadvertent contact of these items with the saw
blade could cause a hazardous condition.
5. Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruc-
tion manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and align-
ment can make the riving knife ineffective in reducing
the likelihood of kickback.
6. For the riving knife and anti-kickback device to work,
they must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife
and anti-kickback device are ineffective when cutting
workpieces that are too short to be engaged with the
riving knife and anti-kickback device. Under these con-
ditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving
knife and anti-kickback device.
7. Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife.
For the riving knife to function properly, the saw blade
diameter must match the appropriate riving knife and
the body of the saw blade must be thinner than the
thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of
the saw blade must be wider than the thickness of the
riving knife.
CUTTING PROCEDURES WARNINGS
1.
DANGER:
Never place your fingers or hands in the
vicinity of or in line with the saw blade. A moment of
inattention or a slip could direct your hand towards the
saw blade and result in serious personal injury.
2. Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cutter only
against the direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece
in the same direction that the saw blade is rotating
above the table may result in the workpiece, and your
hand, being pulled into the saw blade.
3. Never use the miter gauge to feed the workpiece
when ripping and do not use the rip fence as a length
stop when cross cutting with the miter gauge. Guiding
the workpiece with the rip fence and the miter gauge
at the same time increases the likelihood of saw blade
binding and kickback.
4. When ripping, always apply force to the workpiece
between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick
when the distance between the fence and the saw blade
is less than 6 inches (150mm), and use a push block
when this distance is less than 2 inches (50mm). Work
helping devices will keep your hand at a safe distance
from the saw blade.
5. Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer
or constructed in accordance with the instructions. This
push stick provides sufficient separation between the
hand and the saw blade.
