The most common accidents among table saw users, according to statistics, can
be linked to kickback, the high-speed expulsion of material from the table that can strike the
operator. Kickback can also result in operator’s hands being pulled into the blade.
Kickback Prevention
Tips to avoid the most common causes of
kickback:
• Make sure the blade splitter is always
aligned with the blade. A workpiece can bind
or stop the flow of the cut if the blade splitter
is misaligned and result in kickback.
• Use the blade splitter during every cut. The
blade splitter maintains the kerf in the
workpiece, which will reduce the chance of
kickback.
• Never attempt freehand cuts. The workpiece
must be fed perfectly parallel with the blade,
otherwise kickback will likely occur. Always
use the rip fence or crosscut fence to
support the workpiece.
• Make sure that the rip fence is parallel with
the blade. If not, the chances of kickback are
very high. Take the time to check and adjust
the rip fence.
• Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime
you stop feeding a workpiece that is in the
middle of a cut, the chance of binding,
resulting in kickback, is greatly increased.
Protection Tips from
Kickback
Kickback can happen even if precautions are
taken to prevent it. Listed below are some tips to
protect you if kickback DOES occur:
• Stand to the side of the blade when cutting.
An ejected workpiece usually travels directly
in front of the blade.
• Wear safety glasses or a face shield. Your
eyes and face are the most vulnerable part
of your body.
• Never place your hand behind the blade. If
kickback occurs, your hand will be pulled
into the blade.
• Use a push stick to keep your hands farther
away from the moving blade. If a kickback
occurs, the push stick will most likely take
the damage that your hand would have
received.
