Safety Instructions for the Tenoning Jig

1. OPERATION MANUAL. READ and

UNDERSTAND the operation manual for the table saw before using this jig!

2. KICKBACK. Be familiar with kickback. Kickback happens when the workpiece is thrown towards the operator at a high rate of speed. Until you have a clear under

standing of kickback and how it occurs, DO NOT operate the table saw!

3. REACHING OVER SAW BLADE. Never reach behind or over the blade with either hand while the saw is running. If kick-

back occurs while reaching over the blade, hands or arms could be pulled into the spinning saw blade.

4. OPERATOR POSITION. Never stand or have any part of your body directly in-line with the cutting path of the saw blade. Avoid awkward operations and hand posi tions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the spinning saw blade.

7. ADJUSTING JIG. Unplug the table saw before installing or adjusting the jig, saw, or workpiece.

8. TENON MATERIAL SELECTION. Select clean tenon locations that are low in mois ture content, and use workpieces that are

free of knots, staples, nails, and imbedded stones. Run warped stock through a jointer before you use the tenoning jig.

9. WORK AREA CLEANLINESS. Keep the jig and table surface free of wood bits and tools.

10. ACCESSORIES. Make sure other accessories used on the table saw allow the tenoning jig to operate freely with unbinding travel.

11. BLADE GUARD. Reinstall the blade guard and any other safety features on the table saw when the tenoning jig is removed and not used anymore.

5. SECURING WORKPIECE. ALWAYS securely clamp the workpiece in the tenon ing jig, and MAKE SURE all fasteners are tight before you make a cut.

6. JIG CONTROL. Hold both tenoning jig handles firmly when cutting, NEVER hold the jig with only one hand.

Like all machines there is danger associated with the Model H7583. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen the pos sibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, seri ous personal injury may occur.

12. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES.

time you are experiencing difficulties per forming the intended operation, stop using the machine! Contact Tech Support at (570) 546-9663.

No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different. Always consider safety first, as it applies to your individual working conditions. Use this and other machinery with caution and respect. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results.
