    3. Objectives Students will be able to comprehend each safety rule on power tools. Students will be able to apply each safety rule on power tools, and to their own practice.

    4. Planer Safety Have a push stick in case your material gets stuck in the throat. Pieces must be at least 12” in length. Only plane with the grain. Never put pieces through side by side. Never put your hands any closer than the front of the in-feed table and end of the out-feed table. Do not look in the throat of the machine while it is running.

    5. Jointer Safety The maximum cut for jointing an edge is 1/8”, for a flat surface is 1/16”. Stock must be 12” long and if to be surfaced it must be 3/8” thick. Use stock free of knots. Maintain a 4” margin of safety. Do not joint end grain that is less than 12” long. Dull blades will vibrate the stock and may cause a kickback.

    6. Table Saw Safety Be sure the blade is sharp, and the right one for the job. The saw is equipped with a guard. Use it! Use push sticks. Set the blade ¼” above the material to be cut. Maintain a 4” margin of safety. Always use a fence or miter- guage. Do not allow small scraps to accumulate, move them away with a push stick.

    7. Radial Arm Saw Safety Stock must be firmly held on the table and against the fence. Keep the guard and anti-kick in place. Always maintain a 6” margin of safety. Return the saw to the rear of the table after completing the cut. When ripping feed the material into the blades spinning towards you.

    8. Band Saw Safety Wheel guard doors must be closed and the blade properly adjusted. Adjust the guard so it is ¼” above the material. The stock must be held flat on the table. Feed the saw only as fast as the teeth will remove material. Maintain a 2” margin of safety. Round stock should be securely mounted in a jig or hand screw. If the blade breaks turn off the saw and wait till the wheels stop turning before opening the cover doors.

    9. Drill Press Safety

    10. Belt Sander Safety Be sure the belt or disk is mounted correctly. Use the table and fence to support your work. Sand only on the side of the disk sander that is moving down towards the table.

    11. Summary Safety rules are set for us to follow to assure a safe working environment. Always be aware of what is going on around you. Remember the your safety is not only in the hands of yourself but everyone around you. Do the right thing and BE SAFE!
