Never use fence and miter gauge together without
y
using a cut off block (gauge) as described in
the Cutting Aids and Accessories section of this
manual.
The proper throat plate must be in place at all times.

If your saw makes an unfamiliar noise or if it
y
vibrates excessively, cease operating immediately
until the source has been located and the problem
corrected.
Never perform freehand cutting, plunge cutting, re-
y
sawing or cove cutting.
AVOID KICKBACK
A kickback can occur when the workpiece pinches
the blade, or binds between the saw blade and the
rip fence or other fixed object. This can cause the
workpiece to rise from the table and/or be thrown back
toward the operator. See instructions for reducing the
risk of kickback, in the Table Saw Safety Rules section
of this manual.
IF KICKBACK OCCURS, turn the saw "OFF" and verify
proper alignment of the blade, riving knife and miter
gauge or rip fence, and the proper functioning of the
riving knife, anti-kickback assembly and blade guard
assembly before resuming work.
