S.. Do not operate
the machine until you are certain it is in perfect
running condition.
1
1..
Always feed against the rotation of the cutter.
For most routers and bits, the direction of feed
is from right to left as you face The Rebel
®
.
2
2..
Always cut the end grain first before putting an
edge all the way around any stock such as a
table top or raised panel to guard against grain
tear-out as the workpiece clears the bit.
3
3..
Use quality material. Wood that is cupped,
warped, bent or split will not machine proper-
ly and can present many safety hazards. Do not
shape or rout material that contains loose or
unsound knots.
4
4..
The router collet must be securely tightened
against the router bit. A loose router bit can
cause serious injury. Periodically check to see
if the router bit is held securely in the collet.
5
5..
Always use the safety guard and incorporate
feather boards, hold downs or other safety
devices when using your router table.
6
6..
When shaping end grain there is a greater ten-
dency for kick-back. Hold the workpiece firm-
ly using clamps, jigs or fixtures and feed even-
ly.
7
7..
Wear ANSI approved safety equipment such as
eye, face, ear and respiratory protection.
8
8..
Use sharp router bits. The old adage is true: A
sharp tool is a safe tool.
9
9..
Plan your work. Figure your steps out before
you start cutting

Do not shape material that is too small to be
safely processed without a jig or fixture to hold
the piece

Make sure that all fasteners used in assembly
have not vibrated loose.

2..
A starting pin or starting block must be used
when shaping irregular workpieces.
The following are important safety considerations when using The Rebel
