TABLE SAW OPERATING PROCEDURE
WARNINGS
Turn off the table saw and remove or
•
disconnect the battery pack when removing
the table insert, changing the saw blade
or making adjustments to the riving knife,
anti-kickback device or saw blade guard,
and when the machine is left unattended.
Precautionary measures will avoid accidents.
Never leave the table saw running
•
unattended. Turn it off and don't leave the
tool until it comes to a complete stop. An
unattended running saw is an uncontrolled
hazard.
Locate the table saw in a well-lit and
•
level area where you can maintain good
footing and balance. It should be installed
in an area that provides enough room to
easily handle the size of your workpiece.
Cramped, dark areas, and uneven slippery
floors invite accidents.
Frequently clean and remove sawdust
•
from under the saw table and/or the dust
collection device. Accumulated sawdust is
combustible and may self-ignite.
The table saw must be secured. A table saw
•
that is not properly secured may move or tip
over.
MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with
padlocks, master switches.
Make sure the floor is clean and non-
slippery or non-skid where the table saw is
set up. If you cannot control your motion, you
cannot control the work.
Use only recommended accessories.
Use only accessories recommended by the
manufacturer of your model. Other accessories
may be hazardous.
Do not use any blade or other cutting tool
marked for an operating speed less than
6000/min (RPM) Risk of serious injury.
Ensure that blade or other cutting tool,
washers and arbor nut are installed properly.
Reference instructions for removal and
installation of the blade.
Never operate the saw unless the proper
insert is installed. Make sure the table insert
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from
•
the table before the table saw is turned
on. Distraction or a potential jam can be
dangerous.
Always use saw blades with correct size
•
and shape (diamond versus round) of
arbor holes. Saw blades that do not match
the mounting hardware of the saw will run off-
center, causing loss of control.
Never use damaged or incorrect saw
•
blade mounting means such as flanges,
saw blade washers, bolts or nuts. These
mounting means were specially designed
for your saw for safe operation and optimum
performance.
Never stand on the table saw; do not use
•
it as a stepping stool. Serious injury could
occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is
accidentally contacted.
Make sure that the saw blade is installed
•
to rotate in the proper direction. Do not
use grinding wheels, wire brushes, or
abrasive wheels on a table saw. Improper
saw blade installation or use of accessories
not recommended may cause serious injury.
is flush or slightly below the table surface at the
front and flush to slightly above at the rear of
insert.
Always inspect table saw prior to every
use. If any part of your saw is missing,
malfunctioning, or has been damaged or broken
(such as the motor switch or other operating
control, a safety device, or the power cord),
cease operating immediately until the particular
part is properly repaired or replaced.
Plastic and composition (like hardboard)
materials may be cut on your saw. However,
since these are usually quite hard and
slippery, the anti-kickback 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.
