Safety Instructions For Table Saws; Guarding Related Warnings - skilsaw SPT99T Instrucciones De Funcionamiento Y Seguridad

Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can-
not be controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired .
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool accidentally .
Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to oper-
ate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users .
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool's operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained power tools .

GUARDING RELATED WARNINGS

Keep guards in place. Guards must be in
working order and be properly mounted. A
guard that is loose, damaged, or is not functioning
correctly must be repaired or replaced .
Always use saw blade guard, riving knife and
anti-kickback device for every through-cutting
operation. For through-cutting operations where
the saw blade cuts completely through the thick-
ness of the workpiece, the guard and other safety
devices help reduce the risk of injury .
Immediately reattach the guarding system
after completing an operation (such as rab-
beting, dadoing or resawing cuts) which re-
quires removal of the guard, riving knife
and/or anti-kickback device. The guard, riving
knife, and anti-kickback device help to reduce
the risk of injury .
General Safety Rules

Safety Instructions for Table Saws

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control .
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unex-
pected situations .
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replace-
ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained .
Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the
guard, riving knife or the workpiece before the
switch is turned on. Inadvertent contact of these
items with the saw blade could cause a hazardous
condition .
Adjust the riving knife as described in this in-
struction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning
and alignment can make the riving knife ineffec-
tive in reducing the likelihood of kickback .
For the riving knife and anti-kickback device to
work, they must be engaged in the workpiece.
The riving knife and anti-kickback device are inef-
fective when cutting workpieces that are too short
to be engaged with the riving knife and anti-kick-
back device . Under these conditions a kickback
cannot be prevented by the riving knife and anti-
kickback device .
