Although the router table displays the SawStop logo, it does not have the SawStop technology. If your fingers come in contact with the spinning bit, the bit will not stop and it will be a very bad day for you. Remember... SAFETY FIRST!
 +
 +
* Always wear safety glasses in the wood shop and wear hearing protection as applicable.
 +
* Always unplug the router table when changing the bit.
 +
* Leave an eighth inch gap of exposed shank when mounting the bit in the collet.
 +
* Lock the height adjustment before turning on the router table.
 +
* Use the available feather boards and push blocks to keep your hands away from the spinning bit.
 +
* When using the fence, always move your workpiece from right to left.
 +
* Never position the fence so that the workpiece travels between the router bit and the fence.
 +
* The material you are cutting needs to be free from nails or foreign objects.

Many woodworking operations call for stopped cuts - cuts that do not continue for the entire length of the stock. Stopped cuts can be either decorative, like a chamfer that begins and ends at a certain point on a table leg, or functional, as in the case of a mortise or a half blind dovetail pin. A router table can be set up in seconds to perform a stopped cut; the same operation with a handheld router or a table saw is often extremely cumbersome or dangerous.
