(1) Be sure to wear the protective glasses.
(2) Advise the user to use the saw blade guard and spreader when using the table saw. The saw blade guard
prevents the operator from touching the saw blade and the dislodging of workpiece. This should be employed
to ensure safety.
(3) Take care to keep the hands away from the saw blade.
(4) Explain the procedure for making and using the push stick (standard accessory for Europe) to the user.
Details are contained in the Instruction Manual (refer to page 18 for the U.S.A. models and page 22 for
Australia and New Zealand models). Advise the user to use the push stick when cutting a narrow workpiece
vertically.
(5) If the workpiece dislodges, it may injure the operator.
Follow the dislodging preventive measures in the Instruction Manual. Advise the user to check that the
dislodging preventive claw (anti-kickback pawls) works correctly and the claw (anti-kickback pawls) edge is
sharp enough to bite into the workpiece before starting operation. (For the U.S.A., Australia and New Zealand)
(6) Use both hands during cutting work. For cross cutting, hold the workpiece and miter gauge securely.
For vertical cutting, hold the workpiece and press it onto the rip fence surface securely by hand. These
precautions are fundamental to cutting work.
(7) Never get too close to the saw blade and be especially careful about the exposed rotating teeth.

(1) The saw blade guide is designed to protect the operator from coming into contact with the saw blade during
operation of the tool.
(2) The saw blade guard and spreader are for safe operation. Do not operate the machine without the saw blade
guard and spreader (except for dado cutting).
(3) When mounting the saw blade, check that the saw blade's direction of rotation matches the machine's
direction of rotation.
(4) Be sure to lock the tilt lock handle to prevent tilting of the saw blade during operation.
(5) If the wood is pulled toward the operator during cutting, it may be repelled by the saw blade (kickback). Never
pull the wood toward the operator during cutting.
