Mich. Admin. Code R. 408.12718 - Saws generally
Rule 2718.
(1)
A cut-off saw that strokes automatically without the operator's control of each
stroke shall have a guard to keep the operator's hands from coming in contact
with a blade.
(2) An automatic
cut-off saw that strokes continuously without the operator being able to
control each stroke shall not be used.

means shall be provided to limit the saw blade size that can be
mounted.
(4) A circular saw fence

exact alignment with the saw for all positions of the gauge, a circular saw
gauge shall slide in grooves or tracks which are accurately machined.
(6) A hinged saw table in use shall be firmly
secured in position and in true alignment with the saw.
