ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE
PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP
This machine should be installed and operated
only on a solid, flat and stable floor that is able
to support the weight of the saw and the ope-
rator.
Using the dimensions shown as a guideline, plan
for placement within your shop that will allow
the operator to work unencumbered and unob-
structed by foot traffic (either passing shop visi-
tors or other shop workers) or other tools or ma-
chinery.
ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE
For shops with frequent visitors or multiple oper-
ators, it is advisable to establish a safety zone
around shop machinery. A clearly defined “no-
go” zone on the floor around each machine can
help avoid accidents that could cause injury to
either the operator or the shop visitor. It is advis-
able to take a few moments to either paint
(using non-slip paint) or using tape, define on
the floor the limits or perimeter of each
machines safety zone. Take steps to ensure that all operators and shop visitors are aware that these areas are
off limits whenever a machine is running for everyone but the individual operating the unit.

The protective coating on the saw table prevents
rust from forming during shipping and storage.
Remove it by rubbing with a rag dipped in
kerosene, mineral spirits or paint thinner. (Dispose
of potentially flammable solvent-soaked rags
according to manufacturer’s safety recommen-
dations.)
A putty knife, held flat to avoid scratching the sur-
face, may also be used to scrape off the coating
followed by clean-up with solvent. Avoid rubbing
the saw’s painted surfaces, as many solvent-
based products will remove paint.
To prevent rust, apply a light coating of paste wax
or use regular applications of any after-market
surface protectant or rust inhibitor.
Tip: With a screw driver, push a solvent-saturated rag into the T-
slots to remove the grease.
