Table Saw

SOP · SOP-60061

  • Version 4

The Table Saw Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) is a guide to safe practices when using a table saw. It helps workers recognise hazards and manage the risks.

It covers the hazards (noise, electricity, the moving blade, ejected objects, dust and debris, manual handling and poor housekeeping), the PPE to wear, operator training, the pre-operational inspection, maintenance under lockout/tagout, step-by-step operation, kickback prevention, end of shift and blade replacement.

A hazard checklist for powered non-mobile plant, with Y, N and NA for each item, helps confirm the safety measures are in place.
