If thewood binds on the saw it can be wedged at a safe distance behindthe saw, as in hand-sawing (Fig. 74), but do not reach over the sawto do this, unless you have first stopped the machine.

An attach-ment can be used behind the saw to prevent the wood binding. At the end of the cut the piecesmust be so pushed along that theyare kept clear of the teeth at thefurther side of the saw (Fig. 238),or there may be trouble. If a pieceis to be brought to the front ofthe saw again for further sawing,bring it around at either side ofthe saw,—never above it, for if itshould fall upon the saw-teeth itmight be hurled at you with forceenough to inflict a serious or evenfatal injury. When the saw-teeth fairly get hold of a piece in thisway it will be moved toward the operator at a speed equal to that atwhich the periphery of the saw is moving,—perhaps from 5000 to.
