A. SAFETY RULES FOR TABLE SAWS
13. DO NOT REACH BEHIND TABLE SAW
TO GRAB CUTOFF PIECE. If wood binds
against saw blade it will kick back faster than
you can let go.
14. DO NOT LET THE END OF THE WORK-
PIECE CONTACT THE FENCE WHILE
CROSSCUTTING WOOD WITH THE
MITER GAUGE. There is a potential for
kick-back. Move the fence away.
15. DISCONNECT TABLE SAW FROM
POWER before servicing and when changing
accessories, such as blades, bits, and cutters.
16. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make
sure the switch is in the “OFF” position
before plugging in the cord.
17. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Do not oper-
ate the table saw until you are certain it is in
perfect running condition.
18. NEVER LEAVE THE TABLE SAW RUN-
NING UNATTENDED - TURN POWER
OFF. Do not leave the saw until it comes to a
full stop.
19. DO NOT OPERATE EQUIPMENT IF
USING DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDI-
CATION.
20. DO NOT WORK IN HASTE or operate
equipment if you are mentally or physically
fatigued.
21. IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DO NOT
KNOW OR UNDERSTAND, DO NOT
OPERATE MACHINE! Ask for help first.
22. BAD HABITS ARE DANGEROUS. Review
all safety procedures often.
These safety rules cannot cover every situation in
a woodshop. Consider your conditions when set-
ting up and using your Shop Fox ® Fence.
1. KNOW YOUR TABLE SAW. Read the
owner’s manual carefully. Learn the tool’s
applications and limitations, as well as its
particular hazards.
2. DO NOT REMOVE GUARDS. Maintain
guards in working order.
3. ENSURE THAT YOUR TABLE SAW IS
ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED. Never
remove the grounding prong.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered
areas invite accidents.
5. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.
Do not use power tools in damp or wet loca-
tions or expose them to rain. Keep your work
area well lighted.
6. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with
padlocks, master switches, or by removing
starter keys.
7. DO NOT FORCE WORK THROUGH
TABLE SAW. Tools work better and more
safely when they are allowed to work at their
own speed.
8. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry
that might get caught in moving parts. Non-
slip footwear should be worn. Wear a hat
or other protective head wear if your hair is
long.
9. NEVER STAND OR LEAN ON TOOL.
10. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES, EAR
PROTECTION AND RESPIRATORY PRO-
TECTION.
11. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-
ing and balance at all times.
12. USE A PUSH STICK WHEN CUTTING
NARROW PIECES.
