aids will help ensure that your hands remain a safe distance from the

saw blade.

e) Only use the push stick provided by the manufacturer, or a push

stick that has been produced in accordance with the instructions.

The push stick ensures a sufficient distance between the hand and

saw blade.

f) Never use a damaged or partially sawn push stick. A damaged

push stick may break and lead to your hand running into the saw

blade.

g) Never work "freehand". Always use either the rip fence or the

mitre gauge to position and guide the workpiece. "Freehand"

means using your hands to support or guide the workpiece, in lieu

of a rip fence or mitre gauge. Free-handed sawing leads to incorrect

alignment, jamming and kickback.

h)Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade. Reaching for a

workpiece can lead to accidental contact with the rotating saw blade.

i) Support long and/or wide workpieces at the rear and/or side of

the saw table, so that they remain horizontal. Long and/or wide

workpieces tend to tilt at the edge of the saw table; this leads to a

loss of control, jamming of the saw blade and kickback

j) Feed the workpiece steadily and evenly. Do not bend or twist the

workpiece. If the saw blade jams, switch off the saw immediately,

unplug the saw and remedy the cause of the jam. I jamming of the

saw blade by the workpiece can cause kickback or stall the motor.

k) Do not remove pieces of cut-off material whilst the saw is

running. The material may become trapped between the saw blade

guard and the fence the saw blade and may draw your fingers into

the saw blade during removal. Switch off the saw immediately,

unplug the saw and remedy the cause of the jam.

i) When ripping workpieces that are thinner than 2 mm, use an

additional fence in contact with the table surface. Thin workpieces

can wedge under the rip fence and lead to kickback.

6.3 Kickback – causes and related warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece to a catching or

jamming saw blade, or a cut created in the workpiece at an angle to

the saw blade, or if part of the workpiece becomes jammed between

the saw blade and the rip fence or other fixed object.

In the majority of cases,with kickback the workpiece is caught by the

rear part of the saw blade, lifted off the saw table and thrust in the

direction of the operator. Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or

incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by

taking proper precautions as given below.

a) Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position

your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence. With

kickback, the workpiece may be thrust at high speed towards those

persons who stand in front of, or in line wih the saw blade.

b) Never reach over or behind the saw blade to pull or support the

workpiece. This can result in accidental contact with the saw blade,

or kickback can lead to your fingers being drawn into the saw blade.

c) Never hold and push the workpiece against the rotating saw

blade during sawing. Pushing the workpiece against the saw blade

during sawing will lead to jamming and kickback.

d) Align the fence parallel to the saw blade. A misaligned fence will

push the workpiece against the saw blade and create kickback.

e) Use a featherboard to hold the workpiece against the table when

not sawing completely through the workpiece such as in rebating,

cutting slots or ripping. The featherboard will help to hold the

workpiece in the event of kickback.

f) Use extra caution when making a cut into bind areas of

assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade can saw into

objects that could cause a kickback.

g) Support large panels, in order to avoid the risk of kickback due to

a pinched saw blade. Large panels may bend under their own weight

panels must be supported in all areas where they overhang the table

surface.

h) Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted,

knotted, warped or does not have a straight edge to guide it with a

mitre gauge or along the fence. A twisted, knotted or warped

workpiece is unstable and results in incorrect alignment of the kerf

with the saw blade, jamming and kickback.

i) Never saw multiple workpieces stacked on top of each other, or

one behind the other. The saw blade could engage in one or more

parts and result inkickback.

j)When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the workpiece,

centre the saw blade in the kerf so that the saw teeth are not

engaged in the material. If the saw blade binds, it can lift the

workpiece and cause kickback when the saw is restarted.

k) Always keep saw blades clean, sharp and sufficiently set. Never

use warped saw blades or saw blades with cracked or broken teeth.

Sharp and correctly set saw blades minimise binding, stalling and

kickback.

6.4 Table saw operating procedure warnings

a) Switch off the table saw and disconnect it from the power supply

before removing the table insert, changing the saw blade, making

adjustments to the riving knife or the saw blade guard, and if the

machine is left unattended. Precautionary measures serve to

prevent accidents.

b) Never leave the table saw running unattended. Switch the saw

off and don't leave it until it has come to a complete standstill. An

unatended running saw poses an uncontrolled hazard.

c) Set up the table saw in a location that is level and well ventilated,

and where it can stand safely and remain balanced. The installation

site must provide sufficient space for easily handling the size of
