==Safety==
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!
*Be aware of the cutter location on a router at all times as it is fairly exposed.
* Always wear safety glasses in the wood shop and wear hearing protection as applicable.
*Keep all body parts away from the cutter and make sure the motor has stopped before removing your hands from the handles.
* Always unplug the router table when changing the bit.
*Any equipment/tool that you don't handle safely is the most dangerous tool in the shop.
* Leave an eighth inch gap of exposed shank when mounting the bit in the collet.
* Use the available feather boards and push sticks to keep your hands away from the spinning bit.
*Never attempt to use the router without the base.
* 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.
