G0451 14" Sliding Table Saw -9 Additional Safety Instructions for Table Saws 1. SAFETY ACCESSORIES. Always use the blade guard and riving knife on all ''throughsawing'' operations. Through-sawing operations are those when the blade cuts com7. RIVING KNIFE ALIGNMENT. Only operate the saw if the riving knife is aligned with the main blade. pletely through the workpiece. 8. REACHING OVER SAW BLADE. Never reach behind or over the blade with either 2. 3. 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 understanding of kickback and how it occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw! WORKPIECE CONTROL. Make sure the workpiece is placed in a stable position on the table and is either supported by the rip fence or the crosscut table during cutting operations. hand while the saw is running. If kickback occurs while reaching over the blade, hands or arms could be pulled into the spinning saw blade. 9. RIP FENCE AND CROSSCUT FENCE USAGE. When using the crosscut fence, the workpiece should never contact the rip fence while the saw blade is cutting. 10. STALLED BLADE. Turn the saw OFF before "free-ing" a stalled saw blade. 4. PUSH STICK. Always use a push stick when ripping narrow stock. 11. BLADE HEIGHT. Always adjust the blade to the proper height above the workpiece. 5. OPERATOR POSITION. Never stand or 12. DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Never use have any part of your body directly in-line with the cutting path of the saw blade. blades that have been dropped or otherwise damaged. 6. AWKWARD OPERATIONS.

If at ward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the spinning saw blade. any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intended operation, stop using the machine! Contact our Service Department 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 per- sonal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results. Like all machines there is danger associ- ated with the Model G0451. 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. -10-G0451 14" Sliding Table Saw Statistics prove that most common acci- dents among table saw users can be linked to kickback. Kickback is typically defined as the high-speed expulsion of stock from the table saw toward its operator. In addi- tion to the danger of the operator or oth- ers in the area being struck by the flying stock, the operator’s hands can be pulled into the blade during the kickback.

Making a deep non-through cut will greatly increase the chance of kickback. • 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. Preventing Kickback Below are tips to reduce the likelihood of kickback: • Never attempt freehand cuts. If the workpiece is not fed perfectly parallel with the blade, a kickback will likely occur. Always use the rip fence or crosscut fence to support the workpiece. • Make sure the riving knife is always aligned with the blade. A misaligned riving knife can cause the workpiece to bind or stop the flow of the cut, resulting in an increased chance of kickback. If you think that your riving knife is not aligned with the blade, check it immediately! • Ensure that your table slides parallel with the blade; otherwise, the chances of kickback are extreme. Take the time to check and adjust the sliding table. • Use the riving knife whenever performing a through cut. The riving knife helps maintain the kerf in the workpiece after it is cut, therefore, reducing the chance of kickback. Protecting Yourself from Kickback Even if you know how to prevent kickback, it may still happen. Here are some tips to reduce the likelihood of injury if kickback DOES occur: • Never, for any reason, place your hand behind the blade. Should kickback occur, your hand will be pulled into the blade. • Stand to the side of the blade during every cut. If a kickback does occur, the thrown workpiece usually travels directly in front of the bla...
