• READ and UNDERSTAND this instruction
sheet and your table saw instruction manual
before you use Board Straighteners
™
. Otherwise,
serious personal injury may occur.
• If you are using BOARD BUDDIES
®
or any other
anti-kickback device on your table saw, make sure
that no interference or unsafe condition exists if
used in conjunction with Board Straighteners
™
.
• Always use two or more Board Straighteners
™
to
hold the workpiece to the guide board; otherwise,
the boards can slip apart, causing kickback. It is
often better to use too-many Board Straighteners
™
than too-few.
• ONLY use Board Straighteners
™
for holding an
irregular-edged board to a guide board for cutting
on your table saw. Board Straighteners
™
are not
designed for cutting warped boards, which do not
sit flat on the table. DO NOT modify Board
Straighteners
™
for any other task, but rather, use
“C” clamps, vises, jigs, and bar clamps for
associated clamping and gluing needs.
