i. Do not reach beyond table saw base. Keep your
hands away from spinning blade.
j. Use saw-blade guard and spreader for every op-
eration for which it can be used, including all
through sawing.
KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
Dull, gummy or improperly sharpened or set cutting
tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the saw,
or kickback at the operator. Minimize potential in-
jury by proper cutting tool and machine mainte-
nance. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED
SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE
SAW OFF.
a. NEVER use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off
wheels, fric tion wheels (metal slitting blades)
wire wheels or buffing wheels.
b.USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
c. Crosscutting operations are more conveniently
worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary
wood facing is attached to the miter gauge. (See
Page 28).
d.Make sure the top of the cutting tool rotates to-
ward you when standing in normal operating po-
sition. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor
collars and arbor nut are installed pro p erly. Keep
the cutting tool as low as possible for the oper -
ation being performed. Keep all guards in place
whenever possible.
• Do not use any blade or other cutting tool
marked for an operating speed less than 5000
R.P.M. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter
than the diameter for which the saw was de-
signed. For greatest safety and efficiency when
rip ping, use the maximum diameter blade for
which the saw is designed, since under these
conditions the spreader is near est the blade.
e. Make sure the table insert is flush or slightly
below the table surface on all sides except for
rear side. NEVER oper ate the saw unless the
proper insert is installed.

tains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some ex-
amples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending
on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well
ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic parti-
cles.
