12. USE A PUSH STICK WHEN CUTTING

NARROW PIECES.

13. DO NOT REACH BEHIND TABLE SAW

TO GRAB CUTOFF PIECE. If wood binds
against saw blade it will kick back faster
than you can let go.

14. DO NOT LET THE END OF THE

WORKPIECE CONTACT THE FENCE WHILE

CROSSCUTTING WOOD WITH THE MITER

GAUGE. There is a potential for kick-back.
Move the fence away.

15. DISCONNECT TABLE SAW FROM POWER

before servicing and when changing
accessories, such as blades, bits, and
cutters.

16. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure

the switch is in the “OFF” position before
plugging in the cord.

17. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Do not operate

the table saw until you are certain it is in
perfect running condition.

18. NEVER LEAVE THE TABLE SAW RUNNING

UNATTENDED - TURN POWER OFF. Do not
leave the saw until it comes to a full stop.

19. DO NOT OPERATE EQUIPMENT IF USING

DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION.

20. DO NOT OPERATE EQUIPMENT if you are

mentally or physically fatigued.

21. IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DO NOT

UNDERSTAND, DO NOT OPERATE

MACHINE! Ask for help first.

22. BAD HABITS ARE DANGEROUS. Review all

safety procedures often.

1. KNOW YOUR TABLE SAW. Read the

owner’s manual carefully. Learn the tool’s
applications and limitations, as well as its
particular hazards.

2. DO NOT REMOVE GUARDS. Maintain

guards in working order.

3. ENSURE THAT YOUR TABLE SAW IS

ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED. Never remove
the grounding prong.

4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas

invite accidents.

5. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.

Do not use power tools in damp or wet
locations or expose them to rain. Keep
your work area well lighted.

6. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD-PROOF with

padlocks, master switches, or by removing
starter keys.

7. DO NOT FORCE WORK THROUGH TABLE

SAW. Tools work better and more safely
when they are allowed to work at their
own speed.

8. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear

loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry
that might get caught in moving parts.
Non-slip footwear should be worn. Tie
back long hair.

9. NEVER STAND OR LEAN ON TOOL.

10. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES, EAR

PROTECTION AND RESPIRATORY

PROTECTION.

11. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing

and balance at all times.

These safety rules cannot cover every situation in a woodshop. Consider your conditions when

setting up and using your SHOP FOX
