Use extra caution when the guard assembly
•
is removed for resawing, dadoing,
rabbeting or molding. Replace the guard as
soon as that operation is completed.
Use auxiliary facing on miter gauge to
•
increase stability and control. Crosscutting
operations are more conveniently worked and
with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing
board is attached to the miter gauge. See "Rip
Fence Auxiliary Facing."
Avoid awkward operations and hand
•
positions where a sudden slip could cause
fingers or hand to move into the sawblade
or other cutting tool.
If you stall or jam the sawblade in the
•
workpiece, turn saw OFF and disconnect
the battery pack, remove the workpiece
from the sawblade, and check to see if the
sawblade is parallel to the table slots or
grooves and if the riving knife is in proper
alignment with the sawblade. If ripping at the
time, check to see if the rip fence is parallel
with the sawblade. Readjust as indicated.
Think Safety. Safety is a combination of
•
operator common sense and alertness at all
times when the table saw is being used.
People with electronic de-

WARNING
Drilling, sawing, sanding or machining wood
products can expose you to wood dust, a
substance known to the State of California to
cause cancer. Avoid inhaling wood dust or use
a dust mask or other safeguards for personal
protection. For more information go to
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/wood.
WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
Lead from lead-based paints.
–
Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and
–
other masonry products.
Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
–
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending upon how often you do this type
of work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals:
Work in a well-ventilated area.
–
Work with approved safety equipment, such
–
as dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from
–
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities. Wear protective
clothing and wash exposed areas with soap
and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth or eyes or to lie on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
