WARNING

1.Read and understand the entire instruction manual before attempting assembly or operation.

2.This table saw is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only. If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a table saw, do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.

3.Always wear approved safety glasses/face shields while using this machine.

4.Make certain the machine is properly grounded.

5.Before operating the machine, remove tie, rings, watches, other jewelry, and roll up sleeves above the elbows. Remove all loose clothing and confine long hair. Do not wear gloves.

6.Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease.

7.Keep machine guards in place at all times when the machine is in use. If removed for maintenance purposes, use extreme caution and replace the guards immediately.

8.Do not over reach. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or lean against blades or other moving parts.

9.Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with the machine unplugged from the power source.

10.Use the right tool. Don't force a tool or attachment to do a job that it was not designed for.

11.Replace warning labels if they become obscured or removed.

12.Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.

13.Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation, and "horse-play" are careless acts that can result in serious injury.

14.Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area.

15.Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be hazardous.

16.Never place hands directly in line with the saw blade.

17.Always use push sticks when cutting small material.

18.Raise or lower the blade only when the machine has been turned off and the blade has come to a complete stop.

19.Read and understand warnings posted on the machine.

20.Use blade guard for every applicable operation including all through cuts. If guard is removed for special non-through cuts such as dado and rabbet cuts, replace before further use of the saw.

21.Failure to comply with all of these warnings may cause serious injury.

22.Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

•Lead from lead based paint

•crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

•arsenic and chromium from chemicallytreated lumber.

23.Your risk from those exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles

24.Do not operate tool while under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

Grounding Instructions

Caution: This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock.

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor, with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes, is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only three wire extension cords that have three-prong grounding plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.

Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.

115 Volt Operation

As received from the factory, your tablesaw is ready to run at 115 volt operation. This tablesaw, when wired for 115 volt, is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks like the one illustrated in (A). A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter as illustrated in (B), may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in (B) if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should only be used until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or tab, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box, as shown in (B).

230 Volt Operation

If 230V, single phase operation is desired, the following instructions must be followed:

1.Disconnect the machine from the power source.

2.Turn the handwheel until the saw blade is in the 45° position. This will allow easy access to the motor junction box.

3.This tablesaw is supplied with four motor leads that are connected for 115V operation, as shown in Figure A. Reconnect these four motor leads for 230V operation, as shown in Figure B.

4.The 115V attachment plug (A), supplied with the tablesaw, must be replaced with a UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 230V operation (D). Contact your local Authorized JET Service Center or qualified electrician for proper procedures to install the plug. The tablesaw must comply with all local and national codes after the 230 volt plug is installed.

5.The tablesaw with a 230 volt plug should only be connected to an outlet having the same configuration (D). No adapter is available or should be used with the 230 volt plug.

Important: In all cases (115 or 230 volts), make certain the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a registered electrician check the receptacle.
