R. DO NOT remove small pieetes of cut-off material
that may become trapped inside the blade guard
while the saw is running. This could endanger your
hands or cause a kickback. Turn savy "OFF" and
wait until blade stops.
S. Use extra care when ripping wood that has a twisted
. grain or is twisted or bowed — it may rock on the
table and/or pinch the sawblade,
10. KNOW YOUB CUTTING TOOLS
A Dull, gummy,or improperly sharpened or set cutting
tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the saw,
or kickback at the operator.
Minimize potential injury by proper cutting tool
and machine maintenance.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED
SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE
SAW OFF.
B. Never use grindingi wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels,
friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or
buffing wheels.
11. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS
SAW.
12. Crosscutting operations are more conveniently worked
and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is
attached to the miter gauge using the holes provided.
However, the facing must not interfere with the proper
functioning of the sawblade guard.
13. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates
toward you when standing in normal operating
position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars
and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting
tool as low as possible for the operation being
performed. Keep ail guards in place whenever possible.
14. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for
an operating speed less than 3450 RPM. Never use a
cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for
which the saw was designed. For greatest safety and
efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter
blade for which the saw is designed, since under these
conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.
15. Adjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER
operate the saw unless the proper insert is installed.
16. NEVER feed material into the cutting tool from the
rear of the saw. Ari accident and serious injury could
result.
17. THINK SAFETY.
Safety is a combination of operator common sense and
alertness at all times when the saw is being used..
