SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
 WHEN RIPPING NARROW STOCK, always use a push
stick, push block, jig (designed for narrow ripping), or
featherboard.
 WHEN MAKING NON-THROUGH RIP CUTS, always
use a push stick, push block, and/or featherboard so your
hands do not come within 3 inches of the saw blade.
 ALWAYS USE A PUSH STICK FOR RIPPING NAR-
ROW STOCK. A push stick is a device used to push a
workpiece through the blade instead of using your hands.
Size and shape can vary but the push stick must always
be narrower than the workpiece to prevent the push
stick from contacting the saw blade. When ripping nar-
row stock, always use a push stick, or the jig mentioned
in the How to Make A Jig (For Rip Cutting Narrow
Workpiece) section of this manual, so your hand does
not come close to the saw blade. Use a featherboard and
push blocks for non-through cuts.
 NEVER perform any operation "freehand" which means
using only your hands to support or guide the workpiece.
Always use either the rip fence or miter fence to position
and guide the work.
 NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with
the path of the saw blade.
 NEVER reach behind, over, or within three inches of the
blade or cutter with either hand for any reason.
 MOVE THE RIP FENCE out of the way when cross cut-
ting.
 NEVER use rip fence as cutoff gauge when cross
cutting.
 NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first
turning the saw OFF and disconnecting the saw from the
power source.
 PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to the rear and sides
of the saw table for wide or long work pieces.
 AVOID KICKBACKS (work thrown back toward you) by:
a) Keeping blade sharp.
b) Keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade.
c) Keeping riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and
blade guard in place and operating.
d) Not releasing the work before it is pushed all the
way past the saw blade using a push stick.
e) Not ripping work that is twisted or warped or does
not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.
 IF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED, it must
be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an authorized
service center to avoid risk.
 AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND
POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand
to move into the cutting tool.
 USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES listed in
this manual or addendums. Use of accessories that are
not listed may cause the risk of personal injury. Instruc-
tions for safe use of accessories are included with the
accessory.
 MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE LIGHTING
to see the work and that no obstructions will interfere with
safe operation BEFORE performing any work using the
table saw.
 ALWAYS TURN OFF SAW before disconnecting it, to
avoid accidental starting when reconnecting to power
supply.
 ONLY USE BLADES within the thickness range stamped
on the riving knife.
 THIS TOOL should have the following markings:
a) Wear eye protection.
b) Use saw blade guard and riving knife for every opera-
tion for which it can be used, including all through
sawing.
c) Keep hands out of the line of saw blade.
d) Use a push stick when required.
e) Pay particular attention to instructions on reducing
risk of kickback.
f) Do not perform any operation freehand.
g) Never reach around or over the saw blade.
 NEVER CUT MORE THAN ONE PIECE OF MATERIAL
AT A TIME.
 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them
frequently and use to instruct other users. If you loan
someone this tool, loan them these instructions too.
