Router Table Safety
WARNING!
Machinery with cutting bits turning at
high speeds can be very dangerous in
certain circumstances and can cause
very serious injuries, such as cuts,
amputation, entanglement or death.
Router bits that are not properly
installed can fly off at very high
speeds, striking nearby operators or
bystanders. Flying dust and debris
can also cause eye injuries and
blindness. To minimize risk, anyone
operating a router must heed the
hazards and warnings below.
AVOIDING AMPUTATION: Never
place your hands directly over or in
front of any spinning router bit.
When feeding the workpiece your
hand approaches near the bit, move
one hand away and over to the
outfeed side. Keep hands a minimum
6 inches away from a spinning router
bit.
SECURING LEVERS & KNOBS: Before
any router table operation, ensure
that all lock levers and knobs are tight
and all fences and guide rails are
secure. Workpieces that slip out of
alignment can cause an injury
through kickback.
