Safety instructions for table

saws

Guarding related warnings

Keep guards in place. Guards must be in

working order and be properly mounted. A

guard that is loose, damaged, or is not functi-

oning correctly must be repaired or replaced.

Always use saw blade guard and 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.

Immediately reattach the guarding system

after completing an operation (such as rab-

beting) which requires removal of the guard

and/or riving knife. The guard and riving

knife help to reduce the risk of injury.

Make sure the saw blade is not contacting

the guard, riving knife or the workpiece befo-

re the switch is turned on. Inadvertent con-

tact of these items with the saw blade could

cause a hazardous condition.

Adjust the riving knife as described in this

instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, posi-

tioning and alignment can make the riving

knife ineective in reducing the likelihood of

kickback.

For the riving knife to work, it must be en-

gaged in the workpiece. The riving knife is

ineective 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.

Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving

knife. For the riving knife to function proper-

ly, 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 thick-

ness of the riving knife.

Cutting procedures warnings

DANGER: Never place your ngers 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 pul-

led into the saw blade.

Never use the mitre gauge to feed the work-

piece 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 150mm, 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.

Use only the push stick provided by the

manufacturer or constructed in accordance

with the instructions. This push stick provides

sucient 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 sup-

port 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 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 tenden-

cy to pivot on the table’s edge, causing loss

of control, saw blade binding and kickback.
