Whenever Sawblade Is Spinning

• Before actually cutting with the saw,

watch it while it runs for a short while.

If it makes an unfamiliar noise or

vibrates a lot, stop immediately. Turn

the saw off. Unplug the saw. Do not

restart until finding and correcting the

problem.

• Make sure the top of the arbor or

cutting tool turns toward the front of

the saw.

Keep Children Away.

• Keep all visitors a safe distance from

the table saw.

• Make sure bystanders are clear of the

table saw and workpiece.

Don’t Force Tool.

• Let the blade reach full speed before

cutting.

• It will do the job better and safer at its

designed rate.

• Feed the workpiece into the saw only

fast enough to let the blade cut

without bogging down or binding.

WARNING: Don't allow familiarity

(gained from frequent use of your

table saw) cause a careless

mistake. Always remember that a

careless fraction of a second is

enough to cause a severe injury.

Before freeing jammed material.

• Turn switch “OFF”.

• Wait for all moving parts to stop.

• Unplug the saw.

• Check blade, spreader and fence for

proper alignment before starting

again.

To reduce the risk of throwback of

cut off pieces.

• Use the guard assembly.

To remove loose pieces beneath

or trapped inside the guard.

• Turn saw “OFF”.

• Remove switch key.

• Wait for blade to stop before lifting the

guard.

Before Leaving The Saw.

• Turn the saw off.

• Wait for blade to stop spinning.

• Unplug the saw.

• Make workshop child-proof. Lock the

shop. Disconnect master switches.

Remove the yellow switch key. Store

it away from children and others not

qualified to use the tool.

Work Feed Devices

Before cutting any wood on your saw,

study all of the "Basic Saw Operations".

As you learn new table saw

woodworking techniques, you’ll see that

many types of cuts need different

supportand feeding devices, known as

jigs or fixtures.They can help you make

cuts more accurately. By helping to

steady the workpiece and keep you

away from the blade, they can help you

safely use your saw for certain cuts.

Many people custom build their own jigs

and fixtures. Jigs and fixtures are often

designed for a particular cut.

You can use your table saw to easily

make many jigs and fixtures. To get you

started, we've included instructions for

some simple ones. After you have made

a few practice cuts, make up these jigs

before starting any projects.

The use of these devices is explained in

"Basic Saw Operation" section.
