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. Shop, Delta RT31 table saw: on or about November 24, 2020, employees were hand-feeding wood stock for ripping on the equipment without a spreader (i.e. splitter) that exposed them to struck-by hazards. There is no abatement certification or documentation required for this item.
