instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and/or
serious injury.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR TABLE SAWS
GUARDING RELATED WARNINGS
● Keep the guards in place. The guards must be in
working order and must be properly mounted. A
guard that is loose, damaged, or is not functioning
correctly must be repaired or replaced.
● Always use the 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.
● Reattach the guarding system immediately after
completing an operation (such as rabbeting),
which requires removal of the guard, riving knife,
and the anti-kickback device. The guarding system
devices help reduce the risk of injury.
● Make sure that the saw blade is not contacting
the guard, riving knife, or the workpiece before
the switch is turned on. Inadvertent contact of the
items with the saw blade could cause a hazardous
condition.
● Adjust the riving knife as described in the
instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning,
and alignment can make the riving knife ineffective
in reducing the likelihood of kickback.
● 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 conditions, a kickback cannot
be prevented by the riving knife and anti-kickback
device.
● 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
● DANGER! Never place fingers or hands in the
vicinity 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.
● Feed the workpiece into the saw blade 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.
● Never use the mitre gauge to feed the workpiece
when ripping and do not use the rip fence as
a length stop when cross cutting with the mitre
gauge. Guiding the workpiece with the rip fence
and the mitre gauge at the same time increases
the likelihood of saw blade binding and kickback.
● When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding
force between the fence and the saw blade. Use
a push stick when the distance between the fence
and the saw blade is less than 150 mm and use a
push block when the distance is less than 50 mm.
Work helping devices keeps your hand at a safe
distance from the saw blade.
● Use only the push stick provided by the
manufacturer or constructed in accordance with
the instructions. The push stick provides sufficient
distance of the hand from the saw blade.
● Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A
damaged push stick may break causing your hand
to slip into the saw blade.
● Do not perform any operation freehand. Always
use either the rip fence or the mitre gauge to
position and guide the workpiece. Freehand
means using your hands to support or guide the
workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or mitre gauge.
Freehand sawing leads to misalignment, binding,
and kickback.
● Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade.
Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental
contact with the moving saw blade.
● Provide an auxiliary workpiece support to the
rear and sides of the saw table for long or wide
workpieces to keep them level. A long or wide
workpiece tends to pivot on the table’s edge
causing loss of control, saw blade binding, and
kickback.
● Feed the workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend
or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn off
and unplug the product immediately then clear the
jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can
cause kickback or stall the motor.
● Do not remove the pieces of cut-off material while
the saw is running. The material may become
trapped between the fence or inside the saw blade
guard and the saw blade pulling your fingers into
the saw blade. Turn off the saw and wait until the
saw blade stops before removing the material.
● Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the tabletop
when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm thick. A
thin workpiece may wedge under the rip fence and
create a kickback.
KICKBACK CAUSES AND RELATED WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece due
to a pinched, jammed saw blade, or misaligned line of
cut in the workpiece with respect to the saw blade, or
when a part of the workpiece binds between the saw
blade and the rip fence or other
fi xed object.
Most frequently during kickback, the workpiece is lifted
from the table by the rear portion of the saw blade and
is propelled towards the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
