ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
WARNING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING PRODUCT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS LISTED BELOW MAY RESULT IN ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE AND OR SERIOUS INJURY.
1. DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is assembled and installed according to the instructions.
2.OBTAIN ADVICE FROM YOUR SUPERVISOR, instructor, or another qualified person if you are not familiar with the operation of this machine.
3.FOLLOW ALL WIRING CODES and recommended electrical connections.
4.USE THE GUARDS WHENEVER POSSIBLE. Check to see that they are in place, secured, and working correctly.
5.KICKBACK IS THE NATURAL TENDENCY OF THE WORKPIECE TO BE THROWN BACK AT THE OPERATOR when the workpiece initially contacts the blade or if the workpiece pinches the blade. Kickback is dangerous and can result in serious injury.
AVOID KICKBACK by:
A.keeping blade sharp and free of rust and pitch.
B.keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade.
C.using saw blade guard and spreader for every possible operation, including all through sawing.
D.pushing the workpiece past the saw blade prior to release.
E.never ripping a workpiece that is twisted or warped, or does not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.
F.using featherboards when the anti-kickback device cannot be used.
G.never sawing a large workpiece that cannot be controlled.
H.never using the fence as a guide when crosscutting.
I.never sawing a workpiece with loose knots or other flaws.
6.ALWAYS USE GUARDS, SPLITTER, AND ANTI-KICKBACK FINGERS whenever possible.
7.REMOVE CUT-OFF PIECES AND SCRAPS from the table before starting the saw. The vibration of the machine may cause them to move into the saw blade and be thrown out. After cutting, turn the machine off. After the blade has come to a complete stop, remove all debris.
8.NEVER START THE MACHINE with the workpiece against the blade.
9.NEVER run the workpiece between the fence and a moulding cutterhead.
10.CUTTING THE WORKPIECE WITHOUT THE USE OF A FENCE OR MITER GAUGE IS KNOWN AS “FREEHAND” CUTTING. NEVER perform “free-hand”
operations. Use either the fence or miter gauge to position and guide the workpiece.
11.HOLD THE WORKPIECE FIRMLY against the miter gauge or fence.
12.CUTTING COMPLETELY THROUGH THE WORKPIECE IS KNOWN AS “THROUGH-SAWING”.
Ripping and cross-cutting are through-sawing operations. Cutting with the grain (or down the length of the workpiece) is ripping. Cutting across the grain (or across the workpiece) is cross-cutting. Use a fence or fence system for ripping. DO NOT use a fence or fence system for cross-cutting. Instead, use a miter gauge. USE PUSH STICK(S) for ripping a narrow workpiece.
13.AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the blade.
14.KEEP ARMS, HANDS, AND FINGERS away from the blade.
15.NEVER have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.
16.NEVER REACH AROUND or over the saw blade.
17.NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first turning the machine “OFF”.
18.PROPERLY SUPPORT LONG OR WIDE workpieces.
19.NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, assembly or set-up work on the table/work area when the machine is running.
20.TURN THE MACHINE “OFF” AND DISCONNECT THE MACHINE from the power source before installing or removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups, or when making repairs.
21.TURN THE MACHINE “OFF”, disconnect the machine from the power source, and clean the table/work area before leaving the machine. LOCK THE SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION to prevent unauthorized use.
22.ADDITIONAL INFORMATION regarding the safe and proper operation of power tools (i.e. a safety video) is available from the Power Tool Institute, 1300 Sumner Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44115-2851 (www.powertoolinstitute.com). Information is also available from the National Safety Council, 1121

POWER CONNECTIONS
A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. Before connecting the machine to the power line, make sure the switch (s) is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the machine. All line connections should make good contact. Running on
low voltage will damage the machine.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. DO NOT EXPOSE THE MACHINE TO RAIN OR OPERATE THE MACHINE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Your machine is wired for 120 Volt, 60 HZ alternating current. Before connecting the machine to the power source, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position.
1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:
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 machine is equipped with an electric cord having an equipmentgrounding 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 risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipmentgrounding 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 machine is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor receptacles that accept the machine’s plug, as shown in Fig. A.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

2. Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts:
If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A, the machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in Fig. B, may be used to connect this plug to a matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown in Fig. B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

ELEVATING AND SUPPORTING SURFACES FOR A SAW WITH NO STAND
WARNING: THE SAW MUST BE PROPERLY SECURED TO A SUPPORTING SURFACE. ALSO, FAILURE TO PROVIDE A SAWDUST FALL-THROUGH AND REMOVAL HOLE WILL ALLOW SAWDUST TO BUILD UP AROUND THE MOTOR, CAUSING A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD AND/OR MOTOR DAMAGE.
WARNING: DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.
The saw must be elevated enough for sawdust to fall through the bottom of the saw and not build up around the motor.
Position the four mounting holes located on the base of the saw cabinet (two of which are shown at (A) Fig. 4A) over whatever proper support you are using. Then securely fasten the saw to the supports. The saw can be secured by fastening the stand through the mounting holes with suitable hardware (not supplied).
WARNING: THE SAW SUPPORT MUST BE STABLE
AND ABLE TO SUPPORT 300 POUNDS.
You can also construct a simple elevated support, as shown in Fig. 4B.
WARNING: USE A GOOD GRADE OF PLYWOOD |
|
|
WITH A MINIMUM 3/4 INCH THICKNESS. DO NOT |
|
|
MAKE THE MOUNTING BOARD FROM PARTICLE |
A |
|
BOARD SINCE PARTICLE BOARD BREAKS EASILY. |
||
|
WARNING: A HOLE MUST BE PROVIDED IN THIS SUPPORT TO ALLOW SAWDUST TO FALL THROUGH.
Square the saw on the supporting surface and mark the location for four 5/16 inch holes to be drilled (Fig. 4B).
WARNING: MAKE SURE THERE IS AT LEAST 3 INCH ON ALL FOUR SIDES OF THE
