Saws are inherently dangerous and we take our customer's safety extremely seriously, so we've equipped the 979-2 with a light curtain that uses regenerative braking technology to immediately dissipate power if an object is detected near the saw blades, stopping them in under 2 seconds. Additionally, the blades automatically stop spinning if material is not made available to cut within 4 seconds. Check out our
video demonstration of how the light curtain works.
