Avoiding kickback:

•

Always use the correct blade depth setting. The top of the blade teeth should clear the workpiece by

1/8 - 1/4" (3.2 - 6.4 mm).

•

Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails before beginning a cut. Knock out any loose knots with a

hammer. Never saw into a loose knot or nail.

•

Always use the rip fence when rip cutting and the mitre gauge when crosscutting. This helps to prevent

twisting the wood in the cut.

•

Always use clean, sharp, and properly set blades. Never make cuts with dull blades.

•

To avoid pinching the blade, support the work properly before beginning a cut.

•

When making a cut, use steady, even pressure. Never force cuts.

•

Do not cut wet or warped lumber.

•

Always hold the workpiece ﬁrmly with both hands or with push sticks. Keep your body in a balanced

position to be ready to resist kickback should it occur. Never stand directly in line with the blade.

•

Use the right type of blade for the cut being made.

NOTE:

This table saw is designed to cut wood and wood composition products only. Depending on the shape of the

panel, use the rip fence or mitre gauge.
