BODY AND HAND POSITIONING
(Fig. 11)
• Never place your hands within the ‘no hands
zone’ (at least 150mm away from the blade).
Keep hands away from the path of the blade.
• Secure the workpiece firmly to the table and
against the fence to prevent any movement.
• Use a Hold Down Clamp if possible but
check that it is so positioned that it does not
interfere with the path of the blade or other
moving machine parts.
• Avoid awkward operations and hand positions
where a sudden slip could cause your fingers
or a hand to move into the blade.
• Before attempting a cut, make a ‘dry run’
with the power off so that you can see the
path of the blade.
• Keep your hands in position until the
ON/OFF trigger switch has been released
and the blade has completely stopped.
