ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a safety device for standard table-mounted saws whereby a board is firmly restrained thereon while the sawblade rotates to saw the board in a longitudinal plane. The device utilizes a pair of vertically oriented, spring-loaded, hold-down assemblies to maintain the board in longitudinal alignment with the rotating blade. The hold-down assemblies are of a generally rectangular configuration and may be conveniently mounted perpendicular to and at longitudinally spaced apart locations with respect to the board. The device of the invention is a significant improvement in safety equipment designed to prevent the sawed sections of a board from kicking back onto the operator of conventional table saws.
