"OFF"
the
saw and disconnect
the
_p6wer cord when removing
the table insert,
changing
the
cutting
tool,
removing
or
replacing
the
blade
guard,
or
making
adjustments.
O. Provide
adequate
support
to the rear and
sides
of the saw table
for wider
or long
workpieces.
P. Plastic
and composition
(like
hardboard)
materials
may be cut on your saw. However,
s nce
these
are
usually
quite
hard
and
slippery, the antikickback
pawls may not stop
a kickback.
Therefore,
be
especially
attentive
to
following
proper
set-up
and
cutting
procedures
for
ripping.
Do not stand,
or
permit
anyone else to stand, in line with a
potential
kickback.
Q. If you
stall or jam the
sawblade
in the
workpiece
turn saw "OFF" and remove the
workpiece from the sawblade. Check to see if
the sawblade
is parallel to the miter gauge
grooves
and if the spreader
is in proper
alignment
with the sawblade. If ripping atthe
time, check to see if the rip fence is parallel
with the sawblade.
Readjust as indicated.
R. DO
NOT remove
smafi
pieces
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
saw "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.
9. KNOW YOUR 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 grinding
wheels
abrasive cut-off
wheels, friction
wheels (metal slitting blades)
w_re wheels or buffing wheels.
10. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES
DESIGNED
FOR
THIS SAW
11. Crosscutting
operations
are
worked
more
conveniently
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 sawblaae guard.
12. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting
tool
rotates toward
you whon _tanding
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 all guards in place whenever
possible.
13. 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.
14. Adjust
table
inserts
flush with the table top.
NEVER operate the saw unless the proper insert
is installed.
15. NEVER feed material into the cutting
tool from
the rear of the saw. An accident
and serious
injury could result.
16. THINK SAFETY.
Safety
is a combination
of operator
common
sense and alertness at all times when the saw is
being used.
17. NEVER use another
person as a substitute
for a
table extension,
or as additional
support
for a
workpiece
that is longer or wider than the basic
saw table, or to assist in feeding or supporting
or
pulling
the workpiece.
DO
NOT
pull
the
workpiece
through
the
sawblade
- position your body at the nose (in-
feed) side of the guard: start and complete
the
cut from that same side. This will require added
table support for long or wide workpieces
that
extend beyond the length
or width of the saw
table.
18. NOTE
AND
FOLLOW
SAFETY
INSTRUC-
TIONS
THAT APPEAR
ON THE FRONT
OF
YOUR SAW.
