g) The SawStop safety system is designed for
use with standard 10-inch or 250mm blades
with kerfs from 3/32 inch to 3/16 inch. Blades
with kerfs much thinner than 3/32 inch
should not be used because those blades
might not be strong enough to withstand the
force applied by the brake when it activates.
As a result, those blades might deform and
stop more slowly in the event of an accident,
resulting in a more serious injury. Blades with
kerfs much thicker than 3/16 inch are heavier
than standard 1/8-inch kerf blades, and
should not be used because they may stop
more slowly than standard blades in the event
of an accident, resulting in a more serious
injury. Similarly, stacks of two or more blades
should never be used on your SawStop saw
as the combined weight of the blades may be
too heavy to stop quickly.
h) Do not use non-conductive blades, including
abrasive blades, blades with plastic hubs, or
blades that have non-conductive teeth. Only
standard steel blades with either steel or
carbide teeth should be used.
6) Do not use table inserts, guards, fences or
other devices which have metal parts that may
get into contact with the blade. Any metal part
that contacts the blade may cause the brake to
activate . All SawStop accessories are specifically
designed to prevent metal contact with the blade.
a) SawStop recommends maintaining a gap
of at least 1/8” between the blade and any
conductive surfaces to avoid any chance of
activation. One example is while using a
metal miter fences. Applications that require
the miter fence to be closer to the blade
should be completed with a non-conductive
miter fence attachment.
7) Wet, pressure-treated wood may cause the brake
to activate .
The chemicals used to pressure-treat wood
often contain large amounts of copper, which is
conductive. When pressure-treated wood is wet,
the combination of copper and water substantially
increases the conductivity of the wood. Therefore,
allow wet pressure-treated wood to fully
dry before cutting. Typically, the wood will be
sufficiently dry if left unstacked in a dry location
for 24 hours. If you must cut wet pressure-treated
wood, you can make several cuts in the wettest
piece(s) using the Bypass Mode to test whether
the wood is too wet. See the instructions on
starting the saw in Bypass Mode ( see page 24 )
and how to test the conductivity of a material. If
the test indicates the wood is too wet to cut with
the safety system active, you must either allow
the wood to dry or make the remaining cuts in
Bypass Mode.
8) Never touch the arbor, arbor nut or arbor
washer when the blade is spinning because
you may receive a serious injury. These parts
are all electrically coupled to the blade and the
brake will activate if contact with these parts is
detected.
9) Never reach under the blade while it is spinning .
In the event the brake is activated, the retraction
of the blade may cause a serious injury if you
contact the bottom of the blade.
10) Do not remove the dust shroud because a large
portion of the blade will be exposed. If you contact
the blade under the table, the blade may retract
toward you and cause a severe injury.
11) Do not unplug or disconnect the saw from
electrical power before the blade has stopped
spinning .
If the power is interrupted while the blade is
moving, the safety system will not be active and
therefore the brake will not activate in the event
of accidental contact. You may receive a serious
injury if you contact the spinning blade while the
electrical power has been interrupted.
12) Never attempt to disable the SawStop safety
system or modify the electrical wiring of the
saw in any way. Any change or modification or
disablement of the safety system or other wiring
could result in a serious injury and will void all
warranties.
13) Never attempt to repair, adjust, modify or
otherwise service a brake cartridge . There are no
user serviceable parts inside the brake cartridge.
The brake cartridge is permanently sealed
against dust and other contaminants. Destruction,
removal, or alteration of this seal voids all
warranties.
