Yes I do.
EdDo you know about kickback? Ray has a good writeup here... https://www.sawdustzone.org/articles...mare-explained

Yes. The blade guard/splitter/kickback pawl assembly is on my Ridgid 3660 for almost every cut except for non-through cuts, which are very rare (I cut dados and tenons with router).
Occasionally I'll raise the blade guard, while leaving the assembly on saw, if I'm working narrow stock where the guard would be in the way. This is also very rare.Comment

I did use the original on my 21829 until I got the Sharkguard. I actually consider the original a pretty good guard, but the shark is easier to remove & replace for non-through cuts.

Never turn on the saw without one except for dado cuts. Shark Guard makes it easy to be safe.
