General Safety Instructions

!

!

h)

Avoid kickbacks. Kickbacks occur when the workpiece binds while

being routed, causing it to twist, jump, and possibly become airborne. To
avoid kick-backs and potential injury, never trap a workpiece between
the bit and the fence, use sharp bits, keep the machine aligned and
maintained properly, and adequately support the workpiece.
i)

Feed the workpiece against (not with) the bit rotation. The bit can grab

a workpiece fed with the rotation of the bit and cause your hand to
contact the bit.
j)

Always support the workpiece with the fence or starter pin. Only use

the starter pin with router bits that have a guide bearing.
k)

Always position the fence faces as close as possible to the bit. Turn

the bit by hand to check for interference. Firmly tighten the fence-face
T-knobs before routing.
l)

Always position the bit guard over the router bit and as close to the

workpiece surface as practical.
m)

When routing along straight edges, always house the bit in the fence.

Never insert a workpiece between the bit and the fence.
n)

Periodically check the tightness of fasteners and adjustment and

locking knobs and the alignment of the fence. Loose fasteners and knobs
and a misaligned fence may cause personal injury.
o) This router table top is designed for a specifi c application. Do not
modify and/or use it for any other application.
If you have questions
relative to the application of the router table top, DO NOT use it until you have
contacted Kreg Tool Company and have been advised accordingly.

Guidelines for extension cord use
Extension cords are only to be used for temporary purposes. They do
not replace the need for installation of outlets and proper wiring where
necessary.

In the shop and on construction sites:
1. Extension cords with an equipment grounding conductor must be
used at all times.
2. Extension cords must be protected from damage, and not run through
doorways or windows where the doors or windows may close, causing
damage to the cord.
3. Extension cords should be a minimum of 16 AWG and be rated for the
equipment in use.
4. Extension cords must be periodically inspected to ensure that the
insulation and conductivity of the wires are not compromised.
5. Extension cords should not be run through water or allowed to have
connections that may be exposed to accumulated water.
