General Safety
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result
in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
WARNING: This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced, physical or
mental capabilities or lack of experience or knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children must be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable
for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to becomecomplacent and ignore tool
safety principles.
A careless action can cause severeinjury within a fraction of a second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Table Saw Safety
1) Guarding related warnings
a) 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 repaired or replaced.
b) Always use saw blade guard, riving knife 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.
c) Immediately reattach the guarding system after completing an operation (such as rabbeting) which
requires removal of the guard, riving knife. The guard, riving knife help to reduce the risk of injury.
d) 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.
e) Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual. Incorrect spacing,positioning and alignment
can make the riving knife ineffective in reducing the likelihood of kickback.
f) For the riving knife to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective when
cutting workpieces that are too short to be engaged with the riving knife. Under these conditions a kickback cannot
be prevented by the riving knife
g) 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.
2) Cutting procedures warnings
a) DANGER: Never place your 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) 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 this distance is less than 50 mm. “Work helping” devices will keep your hand at a safe distance from the
saw blade.
e) Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions.
This push stick provides sufficient distance of the hand from the saw blade.
f) Never use a damaged or cut push stick.
A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip into the
saw blade.
g) 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.
h) Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade. Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental contact with
the moving saw blade.
i) Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide
workpieces to keep them level.
A long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the table’s edge,
causing loss of control, saw blade binding and kickback.
j) Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool off
immediately, unplug the tool then clear the jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause kickback
or stall the motor.
k) Do not remove 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
the saw off and wait until the saw blade stops before removing material.
l) Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm thick. A thin
workpiece may wedge under the rip fence and create a kickback.
3) 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 fixed 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 and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
a) Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw
blade as the fence. Kickback may propel the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in
line with the saw blade.
b) Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or to support the workpiece. Accidental contact with the
saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.
c) Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade.
Pressing the
workpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.
d) Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the saw
blade and create kickback.
e) Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non-through cuts
such as rabbeting. A featherboard helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.
f) Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
g) Support large panels to minimise the risk of saw blade pinching and kickback.
Large panels tend to sag
under their own weight. Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel overhanging the table top.
h) Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight
edge to guide it with a mitre gauge or along the fence. A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is unstable and
causes misalignment of the kerf with the saw blade, binding and kickback.
i) Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or
more pieces and cause kickback.
j) When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that
the saw teeth are not engaged in the material.
If the saw blade binds, it may lift up the workpiece and cause
kickback when the saw is restarted.
k) Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with
cracked or broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades minimise binding, stalling and kickback.
4) Table saw operating procedure warnings
a) Turn off the table saw and disconnect the power cord when removing the table insert, changing the
saw blade or making adjustments to the riving knife or saw blade guard, and when the machine is left
unattended.
Precautionary measures will avoid accidents.
b) Never leave the table saw running unattended. Turn it off and don’t leave the tool until it comes to a
complete stop. An unattended running saw is an uncontrolled hazard.
c) Locate the table saw in a well-lit and level area where you can maintain good footing and balance. It
should be installed in an area that provides enough room to easily handle the size of your workpiece.
Cramped, dark areas, and uneven slippery floors invite accidents.
d) Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under the saw table and/or the dust collection device.
Accumulated sawdust is combustible and may self-ignite.
e) The table saw must be secured.
A table saw that is not properly secured may move or tip over.
f) Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the table before the table saw is turned on. Distraction or a potential
jam can be dangerous.
g) Always use saw blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Saw blades
that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run off-centre, causing loss of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mounting means such as flanges, saw blade washers, bolts or
nuts. These mounting means were specially designed for your saw, for safe operation and optimum performance.
i) Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as a stepping stool.
Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped
or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.
j) Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate in the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels,
wire brushes, or abrasive wheels on a table saw. Improper saw blade installation or use of accessories not
recommended may cause serious injury.
