USING THE SMART GUARD SYSTEM
The FLEX smart guard system contains three
main components: riving knife, barrier guard,
and anti-kickback device (Fig. 21).
Always remember that the best accident
prevention is the operator's use of common
sense and alertness at all times when using the
table saw. Always 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.
Riving knife
The riving knife maintains its functionality as a
material spreader for through-cuts (Fig. 22a).
For non-through-cuts, it is necessary to
replace the smart guard system with the
included riving knife which acts as a material
spreader and the anti-kickback device
(Fig. 22b).
In the event that the riving knife cannot be used
for a specific cut or for use with a dado blade, it
should be removed (Fig. 22c).
The dust port on this table saw is compatible
with any vacuum or vacuum accessory with a
2-1/4 inch outside diameter. For vacuums with
a different outside diameter, an adapter (not
included) must be used.
