Repair And Service; Specific Safety Rules; Definition Of Terms - Urrea SM1113 Manual De Usuario

• Store the power tool out of reach of children
and other untrained persons. Tools are danger-
ous in untrained hands of users.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools
sharp and clean. Properly mainteined tools,
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Check for misalignment or bonding of mov-
ing parts, breakage parts, and any other con-
dition that may affect the tools operation. If
you find a damaged tool, take it to the service
before use it. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended
by the manufacturer of your model. Suitable
accessories for one tool, may become hazard-
ous when are used on another tool.
• Do not alter or misuse the tool. These tools
have been built by precision. Any alteration or
modification not specified is misuse and may
result in a dangerous condition.

REPAIR AND SERVICE

• Tool service must be perfomed only by quali-
fied repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unquali-
fied personnel could result in a risk of injury.
• When tool service is required, use only identi-
cal replacement parts and follow the instruc-
tions from "Maintenance Section" in this man-
ual. The use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow Maintenance Instructions may cause a
risk of electric shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. Always use a guard, splitter and anti-kick-
back fingers on all "thru-sawing" operations.
Thru-sawing operations are those when the
blade cuts completely through the work piece
as in ripping or crosscutting.
2. Always hold the work firmly against the mi-
ter gauge or fence.
3. Always use a pushstick for ripping narrow
stock. Refer to ripping applications in instruc-
tion manual where push sticks are covered in
detail.
4. Never perform any operations "free-hand"
which means using your hands to support or
guide the work piece. Always use either the
fence or the miter gauge to position and guide
the work piece.

5. Never stand or have any part of your body in
line with the path of the saw blade.
6. Never reach behind or over the cutting tool
with either hand for any reason.
7. Move the rip fence out of the way when
crosscutting.
8. When cutting mouldings, never run the
stock between the fence and the moulding
cutter-head. Refer to moulding applications in
the accessory manual for details.
9. Direction of feed. Feed work into the blade
against the direction of rotation.
10. Never use the fence as a cut-off gauge
when you are cross-cutting.
11. Never attempt to free a stalled saw blade
without first turning the saw off.
12. Provide adequate support to the rear and
sides of the table saw for wide or long work
pieces.
13. Avoid kickbacks (work thrown back to-
wards you) by keeping the blade sharp, by
keeping the rip fence parallel to the saw blade,
by keeping the splitter and anti-kickback fin-
gers and guard in place and operating, by not
releasing work before it is pushed all the way
past the saw blade, and by not ripping work
that is twisted or warped or does not have a
straight edge to guide along the fence.
14. Avoid awkward operations. Avoid awk-
ward operations and hand positions where
a sudden slip could cause your hand to move
into the spinning blade.

to the blade guard and splitter assembly de-
signed to minimize the chance of a workpiece
being thrown back during a cutting operation.

sory cutting-tool is mounted.
Bevel Cut – The operation of making any cut

degrees.
Compound Cut. The operation of making both
