The blade guard assembly provided with
Delta saws (Fig. 63) must be used for all through-sawing
operations. The splitter prevents the kerf from closing and
binding the blade, causing kickback. The anti-kickback pawls
(A) Fig. 62 prevent the workpiece and the cut-off piece from
being thrown back at the operator. The plastic guard prevents
dust and debris from being thrown at the operator. To use the
guard properly:
1. Make sure that the splitter is aligned with the blade
as described in the section “BLADE GUARD AND
SPLITTER ASSEMBLY AND ALIGNMENT.”
2. Replace or sharpen the anti-kickback pawls when they
become dull.
3. Keep the guard clean for visibility and free motion.
4. Do not use solvent or lubricants on the guard. They
may severely damage the plastic.
5. Use caution when feeding workpieces that may catch
on the guard and cause a bind, or force the guard into
the blade (such as when cutting moulding).
