Large/Loose Knots:
Loose knots can become dislodged during the cutting operation. Large
knots can cause kickback and machine damage. Choose workpieces that do not have
large/loose knots or plan ahead to avoid cutting through them.
Wet or "Green" Stock:
Cutting wood with a moisture content over 20% causes
unnecessary wear on the blades, increases the risk of kickback, and yields poor results.
Excessive Warping:
Workpieces with excessive cupping, bowing, or twisting are dangerous
to cut because they are unstable and may move unpredictably when being cut.
Minor Warping:
Slightly cupped workpieces can be safely supported with cupped side
facing the table or fence; however, work-pieces supported on the bowed side will rock during
the cut, which could cause kickback.
