Safety
| Info |
|---|
| There is a PPE tag mounted to the front of the Saw stand which indicates that the operator must wear safety glasses, contain loose clothing and jewelry, and remove any extraneous materials from the work area. Hearing and respiratory protection is recommended, especially when using the saw for long durations. |
Additional Precautions
- Do not try to force the saw to do something it was not designed to do. For example, do not try to cut wood faster than the motor can handle, and use the right blade for the job.
- Do not over reach or stretch to get something when using this off keep proper footing and balance at all times.
- Turn the power disconnect switch to off before servicing the saw and when changing components or accessories such as blades, brake cartridges, and the like.
- Never leave the Saw running unattended. Wait until the blade comes to a complete stop, and then turn both the main power switch and the disconnect switch to off when you’re finished using a saw.
- Always maintain firm control over the material being cut. Never cut any material freehand.
- Never reach over a spinning blade for any reason.

The Tenoning Jig is a mechanical fixture, which has a metal bar that can slide through either slot in the Bed of the Table Saw. It has a clamping structure, which accommodates mounting work pieces vertically at any angle between zero and 45 degrees both laterally and horizontally. This device allows cutting the ends of boards into smaller tabs or “Tenons” for wood joinery, and also provides a way for compound angles to be cut in work pieces up to 4 inches square in cross-section, and up to 6 feet long. A Shop Technician typically performs Tenoning Jig installation. Please ask for assistance when Tenon cutting.
Dust Collector
The Dust Collector should always be turned on when operating the table saw. It’s located on the floor to the right of the Table Saw. The toggle switch for it is on the left side of its’ motor housing.
