N. Provide adequate support to the rear and
sides of the saw table for wider or long
WQrkfilQCGS« •
O. Plastic and composition (like hardboard)
materials may be cut on your saw. However,
since these are usually quite hard and
slippery, the antikickback pawls may not
... stop a kickback.
Therefore, be especially a t t e n t i v e t o
following proper set-up and c u t t i n g
procedures for ripping Do not stand, or
permit anyone else to stand, in line with a
potenttal kickback.
P. If you stall or jam the sawblade in the
.... workpiece, turn saw “OFF”, remove the
workpiece from the sawblade and check to
see if the sawblade is parallel to the miter
gauge grooves and if the spreader is in
proper alignment with the sawblade. If
ripping at the time, check to see if the rip
fence is parallel with the sawblade. Readjust
as Indicated.
Q. DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off
material that may become trapped inside the
blade guard while the saw is running. This
could endanger your hands or cause a
kickback. Turn saw “OFF” and wait until
blade stops
R. Use extra care vvhen ripping wood that has a
twisted grain or is twisted or bowed— it may
rock on the table and/6r pinch the sawblade.
9. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
A. Dull, gummy. Or improperly sharpened or set
cutting tools can cause material to stick, jam,
stall the saw, or kickback at the operator.
Minimize potential injury by proper cutting
tool and machme maintenance.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED
SAWBLADE
WITHOUT FIRST TURNING
THE SAW OFF.
B. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off
wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting
blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels.
10. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR
THIS SAW.
11 Crosscutting operations are more conveniently
worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary
wood facing isattached to the miter gauge using
the holes provided. However, the lacing must
not interfere with the proper functioning of the
sawblade guard.
12. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting toot
rotates toward you when standing in normal
operating position. Also make sure the cutting
tool, arbor coliars and arbor nut are installed
properly. Keep the cutting tool as low as
possible for the operation being performed.
Keep all guards in place whenever possible.
13 Do not use any blade or other cutting tool
marked for an operating speed less than 3450
RPM. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter
than the diameter for which the saw was
..... designed. For greatest safety and efficiency
when ripping, use the maximum diameter blade
for which the saw is designed, since under these
conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.
14 Adjust table inserts flush with the table top.
NEVER operate the saw unless the proper insert
is installed.
15, NEVER feed material into the cutting tool from
the rear of the saw. An accident and serious
injury could result.
17. NEVER use another person as a substitute for a
table extension, or as additional support for a
workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic
saw tabie, ortoassist in feeding or supporting or
pulling the workpiece.
DO NOT pui! the workpiece through the
sawblade - position your body at the nose (In­
feed) side of the guard: start and complete the
cut from the same side. This will require added
table support for iong or wide workpeices that
extend beyond the length or width of the saw
table.
18. THINK SAFETY.
Safety is a combination of operator common
sense and alertness at all times when the saw is
being used.
19. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUC­
TIONS THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF
YOUR SAW.

J. REEPHANreOUTOFPATMOFSAWOLAOE. 7. NEVER REACH AROUND OR OVER SAWBLADE,
USE A “PUSH-STICK" WHEN REQUIREO.
WARNING: use i» volt , is amp branch circuit and use is amp time delay fuse .
20. WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY
(GAINED FROM FREQUENT USE OF YOUR
SAW)
TO BECOME COMMONPLACE. -
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS
FRACTION OF A SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO
INFLICT SEVERE INJURY.
NOTE: Do not overtighten arbor nut. Use the arbor
wrench to just “snug" it.
The pperation of any power tool can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result
in severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles
