SECTION 2: INTRODUCTION
Commentary
1. TEST THE STABILITY OF THE MACHINE
BEFORE USING. An extended or heavy
load may alter the balance point of the
machine (especially if used with a mobile
base). Neglecting this step could result in
damage to the equipment and serious injury
to the operator.
2. KEEP FINGERTIPS AWAY FROM THE
MOVING BLADES OR CUTTERS.
3. ALWAYS FEED THE WORK AGAINST
THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION.
4. USE A DUST MASK OR RESPIRATOR,
even if you have a reliable method of dust
collection, when cutting or shaping, as well
as EYE AND EAR PROTECTION.
5. DO NOT CUT IT if there is any doubt as to
the stability or integrity of the material to be
cut. Look for loose knots, nails and any
defect that may cause the workpiece to shift,
come apart or cause blade failure.
6. DO NOT EXTEND FINGERS BELOW THE
BOTTOM OF THE FENCE NEAR THE STA-
TIONARY TABLE. A potential for pinched
fingers exists.
7. AVOID KICKBACKS (work thrown back
toward you) A condition in which a piece of
wood is thrown back towards an operator at
a high rate of speed. If you do not have a
complete understanding of how kickback
occurs, or how to prevent it, DO NOT oper-
ate this table saw.
8. IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE EXPERIENC-
ING DIFFICULTIES performing the intended
operation, stop using the machine! Then
contact our service department or ask a
qualified expert how the operation should be
performed.
