How to Avoid Kickback on a Table Saw

I posted a video on our YouTube channel this morning with Kelly Mehler on desk noticed kickback. In speaking with David Lyell concerning the video I noticed that a lot had occurred since that video was made (seven+ years in the past?). At the moment Kelly was utilizing a European sliding desk noticed to level out some anti-kickback options that weren’t widespread on our desk noticed within the U.S. Sure, we had guards on our saws, however they ceaselessly didn’t embrace splitters that moved with the blade meeting. Anti-kickback pawls have been in place, however considerably lower than efficient. Fortunately, we’re now in an period the place our saws are a lot safer (together with SawStop know-how to add one other diploma of security). Many saws are shipped with splitters that regulate in peak and embrace helpful pawls. These could be eliminated and changed simply (as some desk noticed operations require), making it extra doubtless that we’ll put them again on!

The knowledge on Kelly’s video on how kickbacks happen continues to be helpful and academic, however I’m completely satisfied to say that our producers have upped their recreation to make our cross time (or avocation) a safer and happier one. Thanks people!
