which the blade cuts completely through the workpi ec e.

9. Kickback oc c ur s when the workpiece i s thr own towards t he oper ator at a high rate of speed. If y ou do

not have a clear understanding of kickback and how it occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw!

10. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operation.

11. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities

contain chemi cals known to cause cancer , bir th defects or other r eproductiv e harm . Some examples of these chemic als are:

• Lead from lead based paint.

• Crystalli ne sil ic a from bricks, cement and other m asonry pr oduc ts.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lum ber .

Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as face or dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.

- - SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - -

The most common accidents among table saw users, according to statistics, can be

linked to kickback, the high-speed expulsion of material from the table that can strike the operator. Kickback can also result in operator’s hands being pul led into the blade.

Kickback Prevention

Tips to avoid the most common causes of kickback:

• Make sure the blade splitter is always

aligned wit h the blade. A workpiece can bind or stop the flow of the cut if the blade spl itt er is misaligned and resul t in kickback.

• Use the blade spli tter during every cut. The

blade splitter maintains the kerf in the workpiece, which will reduce the chance of kickback.

• Never attempt fr eehand cut s. The workpiece

must be f ed perf ectly parall el with t he blade, otherwise kickback will likely occur. Always use the rip fence or crosscut fence to support the workpi ec e.

• Make sure that the r ip fence is parallel with

the blade. If not, the c hanc es of ki c k bac k ar e very high. Tak e the time t o check and adjust the rip fence.

• Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime

you stop feeding a workpiece that is in the middle of a cut, the chance of binding, resulting in kickback, is greatly increased.

Pro tection Tips from Kickback

Kickback can happen even if precautions are taken to prevent it. Listed below are som e tips to protect you if kickback DOES occur:

• Stand to the side of the blade when cutting. An ejected workpiece usual ly travel s directly in front of the blade.

• Wear safety glasses or a face shield. Your eyes and face are the most vul nerable part of your body.

• Never plac e your hand behind the blade. If kickback occurs, your hand will be pulled into the blade.

• Use a push stic k to keep your hands far ther away from the moving blade. If a kickback occurs, the push stick will most likely take the damage that your hand would have received.

Definitions And Terminology

Arbor: Metal shaft that connects the drive

mechanism to the blade. Bevel Edge Cut: Tilt of the saw arbor and blade

between 0° and 45° to perform an angled cutting operation.

Blade Guard: Mechanism mounted over the saw blade to prev ent accidental c ontact with the cutting edge.

Crosscut: Sawing operat ion in which the mi ter gauge is used to cut across the grain of the workpiece.

Dado Blade: Blade(s) used f or cutting grooves and rabbets.

Dado Cut: Fl at bottomed gr oov e in the face of the workpiece made wit h a dado blade.

Featherboard: Device used to keep a board against the rip fence or table that allows the operator to keep hands away from the saw blade.

Kerf: The resulting cut or gap made by a saw blade.

Kickback: An event in which the workpiece is lifted up and thrown back toward an operator, caused when a work piece binds on the saw blade or between the sa w blade and rip f ence (or other fixed object). To minimize or prevent injury from kickbacks, see the Operating Instructions section.

Miter Gauge: A component that controls the workpiece movement while performing a crosscut of vari ous angl es.

Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation that requires the rem oval of the blade guard spl itter, resulting in a c ut that does not protrude through the top of the workpiece (includes Dado and rabbet cuts).

The blade guard and split ter must be re-i nstalled after performing a non-through cut to avoid accidental contact with the saw blade during operation.

Parallel: Position of the rip fence equal in distance at every point to the side face of the saw blade.

Perpendicular: 90° (right angl e) intersection or position of the vertical and horizontal planes such as the posi tion of the saw blade (v ertical) to the table surfac e ( hori z ontal).

Push Board/Push St ick: A n instr ument used to safely push the workpiece through the cutting operation.

Rabbet: A cutting operation that creates an L-shaped channel along the edge of the board.

Rip Cut: A cut made along the grain of the workpiece.

Splitter: Metal pl ate to which t he blade guard i s attached that maintains the kerf opening in the workpiece when performing a cutting operati on.

Standard Kerf: 1/8" gap made with a standard blade.

Straightedge: A tool used to check that a surface is flat or parallel.

Through Sawing: A sawing operat ion in which the workpiece thickness is completely sawn through. Proper blade height usually allows 1/8" of the top of blade to extend above the wood stock.
