3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the OFF-
position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack,
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch
ON invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power
tool ON. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep
your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow
you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A
careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction
of a second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it ON and
OFF. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the
battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power
tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do
not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool's operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power
tool for operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.

h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for
safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Table Saw Safety
1) Guarding related warnings
a) Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working order and
be properly mounted. A guard that is loose, damaged, or is not
functioning correctly must be repaired or replaced.
b) Always use saw blade guard, riving knife for every through–
cutting operation. For through-cutting operations where the saw
blade cuts completely through the thickness of the workpiece, the
guard and other safety devices help reduce the risk of injury.
c) Immediately reattach the guarding system after completing an
operation (such as rabbeting) which requires removal of the
guard, riving knife. The guard, riving knife help to reduce the risk of
injury.
d) Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard, riving
knife or the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
Inadvertent contact of these items with the saw blade could cause a
hazardous condition.
e) Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual.
Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can make the riving
knife ineffective in reducing the likelihood
of kickback.
f) For the riving knife to work, they must be engaged in the
workpiece. The riving knife is ineffective when cutting workpieces
that are too short to be engaged with the riving knife. Under these
conditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife
g) Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife. For the riving
knife to function properly, the saw blade diameter must match the
appropriate riving knife and the body of the saw blade must be
thinner than the thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of
the saw blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.
2) Cutting procedures warnings
a) DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands in the vicinity or in
line with the saw blade. A moment of inattention or a slip could
direct your hand towards the saw blade and result in serious personal
injury.
b) Feed the workpiece into the saw blade only against the
direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece in the same direction
that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in the
workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade
c) Never use the mitre gauge to feed the workpiece when ripping
and do not use the rip fence as a length stop when cross cutting
with the mitre gauge. Guiding the workpiece with the rip fence
and the mitre gauge at the same time increases the likelihood of saw
blade binding and kickback.
d) When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding force
between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick when
the distance between the fence and the saw blade is less
than 150mm, and use a push block when this distance is less
than 50mm. "Work helping" devices will keep your hand at a safe
distance from the saw blade.
