Steps

  1. Enclose the portion of ripsaw/crosscut blades above the table with a self-adjusting guard that stays in contact with the stock.
  2. Guard the blade below the table to prevent operator contact when reaching underneath.
  3. Install a spreader and anti-kickback fingers on ripsaws to prevent material pinching and kickback.
  4. Guard all belts, pulleys, gears, and shafts per the related 1910.219 power-transmission requirements.
  5. Remove cracked saw blades from service immediately and stock push sticks/push blocks in sizes suited to the work performed.
