NEVER
reach in back of the cutting tool with either

and hand positions
where a

The saw should be positioned

KICKBACKS

i.

j.

k.
so neither the operator
to stand in line with the

Kickbacks can cause serious injury: A kickback occurs
when a part of the workpiece
binds between
the
sawblade and the rip fence or other fixed object, rises
from the table, and is thrown toward the operator.
Keep your face and body to one side of the sawblade,
out of line with a possible "Kickback".
Kickbacks
- and possible injury from them -- can
usually be avoided by:
a. Maintaining
the rip fence parallel to the sawblade.
b. Keeping
the sawblade sharp, Keeping points of
anti-kickback
pawls sharp.
c. Keeping
sawblade
guard,
spreader,
and
anti-kickback
pawls in place and operating properly.
The
spreader
must be in alignment
with
the
sawblade and the pawls must stop a kickback
once
it has started. Check their action before ripping.
d. NOT ripping work that is twisted or warped or does
not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.
e. NOT releasing work until you have pushed it all the
way past the sawblade.
f.
Using a push stick for ripping
widths of 2 to 6
inches,
and an auxiliary
fence/push
block
for
ripping
widths narrower
than 2 inches (See section
on "'R ipping").
PROTECTION:
EYES, HANDS,
FACE, EARS, BODY
a. If any part of your saw is malfunctioning,
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.
b. Wear
safety
goggles
that
comply
with
ANS
Z87.1-1968,
and a face shield if operation
is dusty.
Wear ear plugs or muffs during extended
periods of
operation.
Small loose pieces of wood or other objects that
contact
the rear of the revolving
blade can be
thrown
back at the operator at excessive speed. This
can usually
be avoided
by keeping the guard and
spreader
in place for
all thru-sawing
operations
(sawing entirely
thru the work)
AND by removing
all loose pieces from
the table with a long stick of
wood IMMEDIATELY
after they are cut off.

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.
NEVER
turn the saw "ON"
before clearing the table
of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except the workpiece
and related feed or support devices for the operation
planned.
NEVER

Plastic and composition
(like hardboard)
materials
may be cut on your saw. However,
since these are
usually
quite hard and slippery,
the anti-kickback

Therefore,
be especially
attentive

RIPPING
RIPPING is known as cutting a piece of wood with the
grain, or lengthwise. This isdone using the rip fence.
Position the fence to the desired WIDTH OF RIP by
measuring the distance from the "pencil mark" (which you
made when Installing the Blade Guard) to the end of the rip
fence head and lock it.

NOTE: When bevel ripping 6 inches or narrower use fence
on the right side of the sawblade ONLY. This will provide
more space between the fence and the sawblade for use of a
push stick. If the fence is mounted to the left, the sawblade
guard may interfere with the proper use of a push stick.

With the insert in place, use a small scale or straight edge to
check near each of the six leveling tab positions, in order to
determine if the insert is even with saw table surface at all
six tab locations.

If the insert is ABOVE the table surface, lay a hardwood
block on saw table so it extends over the insert and strike
block with a mallet at each leveling tab location in
succession.

NOTE: Tap at each tab location lightly until level. A heavy
blow might bend the tab too much.

If the insert is BELOW the table surface, remove the insert
and bend the tabs (with pliers) enough to make the insert
higher than the table surface. Then re-install the insert and

in voltage causesa
reduction of 36% in
maximum power output.)
