Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 001B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.213(c)(2):Each hand-fed circular ripsaw shall be furnished with a spreader to prevent material from squeezing the saw or being thrown back on the operator. The spreader shall be made of hard tempered steel, or its equivalent, and shall be thinner than the saw kerf. It shall be of sufficient width to provide adequate stiffness or rigidity to resist any reasonable side thrust or blow tending to bend or throw it out of position. The spreader shall be attached so that it will remain in true alignment with the saw even when either the saw or table is tilted. The provision of a spreader in connection with grooving, dadoing, or rabbeting is not required. On the completion of such operations, the spreader shall be immediately replaced. On or about December 22, 2020, employees were exposed to the machine hazards associated with table saws when the Dayton Model 3Z997B, 12" Table Saw in the Pattern shop was not equipped with a spreader to prevent material from squeezing the saw or being thrown back on the operator.
