GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING!
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
1.Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas
invite accidents.
2.Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in thepresence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3.Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from
debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.
4.Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away
from the user.
5.Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is grounded.
6.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
7.Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools
or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately.
Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
8.When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord
marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and
reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
9.Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
10.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
11.Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging
in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in
power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
12.Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
13.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper
footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
14.Always wear eye, hearing, and breathing protection. Wear ANSI
approved safety impact goggles, ANSI-approved hearing protectors, and
ANSI-approved dust mask or respirator when using this product. Non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions.
TOOL USE AND CARE
15.Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support
the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your
body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.
16.Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
17.Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must
be replaced.
18.Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
19.Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
20.Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier
to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until
repaired.
21.Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and
any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
22.Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
SERVICE
23.Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
24.When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions
may create a risk of electric shock or injury.
1.Ground this product. This Table Saw requires the attachment and use of a UL
approved, 220 volt, grounded, 3-prong, electrical Power Cord Plug (not included).
Only a qualified electrician should install the Power Cord Plug. Never remove the
grounding prong or modify the Power Cord Plug in any way. Do not use adapter
plugs with this product. To comply with the National Electric Code, and to provide
additional protection from the risk of electrical shock, this product should only be
connected to a 220 volt, 3-hole outlet that is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI). (See Figure A, page 11.)
“Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning”
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
section of this
2.Maintain labels and nameplates on the Table Saw. These carry important
information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a
replacement.
3.Avoid unintentional starting. Make sure you are prepared to begin work
before turning on the Table Saw.
4.Do not force the Table Saw. This tool will do the work better and safer at
the speed and capacity for which it was designed. Do not force the Saw Blade
into the workpiece being cut.
5.WARNING! Keep hands and fingers away from cutting area and Saw Blade. Use
a “push stick” (not included) if necessary.
6.Never leave the Table Saw unattended when it is plugged into an
electrical outlet. Turn off the tool, and unplug it from its electrical outlet before
leaving.
7.Always use Saw Blades with a 12” diameter, 1” round arbor hole, and rated
at 3500 RPM or greater. Saw Blades that do not match the mounting hardware
of the Table Saw or that are rated less than the required minimum RPM will run
eccentrically; possibly causing loss of control.
8.Make sure the Table Saw is located on a flat, level, sturdy surface capable
of supporting the weight of the Saw and workpieces.
9.Do not use the Table Saw for cutting metals or for cutting curves. This will
cause the Saw Blade to break and/or reduce its service life.
10.Make sure the Table of the Table Saw and surrounding area are clear with
the exception of the workpiece to be cut.
11.Before using the Table Saw, check to make sure the Saw Blade is prop-
erly mounted on the Saw Spindle. Make sure the Saw Blade is balanced, and
is not cracked or bent.
12.Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines.
13.Never stand on the Table Saw. Serious injury could result if the Table Saw
is tipped or if the rotating Saw Blade is accidently contacted.
14.Never attempt to cut more than one workpiece at a time.
15.Never attempt to cut freehand. Make sure the workpiece to be cut is pressed
firmly against the Table.
16.When cutting a large workpiece, make sure its entire length is properly
supported. If necessary, use a roller stand (not included).
17.Always feed the workpiece against the rotation of the Saw Blade.
18.Allow the Saw Blade to spin up to full speed before feeding it into a
workpiece. When turning off the Table Saw, allow the Saw Blade to spin down
and stop on its own. Do not press against the Saw Blade to stop it.
19.To avoid accidental injury, always wear heavy duty work gloves when
changing the Saw Blade.
20.The Saw Blade will become hot while cutting. Allow the Saw Blade to
completely cool before handling.
21.Do not force the workpiece into the Saw Blade when cutting. Apply moderate
pressure, allowing the Saw Blade to cut without being forced.
22.Turn off the Table Saw and allow the Saw Blade to completely stop if the
Saw Blade is to be backed out of an uncompleted cut.
23.Never attempt to remove material stuck in the moving parts of the Table
Saw while it is plugged in and running.
24.Make sure the woodstock to be cut off has sufficient room to move side-
ways. Failure to do so may result in off-cut binding against the Saw Blade.
25.Always unplug the Table Saw from its electrical outlet before performing
inspection, maintenance, cleaning procedures, or changing accessories.
26.Before trying new or complicated techniques, study the procedure, and
practice with scrap wood.
27.Make sure the woodstock is free from loose knots, flaws, nails, and any
other foreign objects that could damage the Saw Blade or cause “kickback”.
28.Causes and operator prevention of “kickback”: Kickback is a sudden reaction
to a pinched, bound, or misaligned Saw Blade, causing an uncontrolled
woodstock to lift up and out from the Table Saw toward the operator. When the
Saw Blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down, the Saw Blade
stalls and the motor reaction drives the woodstock rapidly back toward the
operator. If the Saw Blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the teeth at
the back edge of the Saw Blade can raise the woodstock (walk up), and eject it
toward the operator. Kickback is a result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:
* Maintain control of the woodstock at all times. Never allow the woodstock
to rest on the moving Saw Blade without holding on to the woodstock.
* When the Saw Blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason,
turn off the Power Switch and hold the woodstock motionless on the Table
Saw until the Saw Blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to
remove the woodstock from the Table Saw or pull the woodstock backward
while the Saw Blade is in motion or kickback may occur. Investigate and take
corrective actions to eliminate the cause of Saw Blade binding.
* When restarting a woodstock on the Table Saw, center the Saw Blade in
the pre-cut kerf and check that the Saw Teeth are not engaged into the
woodstock. If the Saw Blade is binding, the woodstock may walk up or kick
* Support large panels with roller stands (not included) to minimize the risk of Saw Blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their
own weight. Supports must be placed under the panel and near the outer
edge of the panel.
* Do not use a dull or damaged Saw Blade. Unsharpened or improperly set
Saw Blades produce a narrow kerf causing excessive friction, Saw Blade
binding and kickback.
* Never use the Fence assembly as a guide when crosscutting.
* Never rip a woodstock that is twisted or warped, or does not have a
straight edge to guide along the Rip Fence.
* Push the woodstock past the Saw Blade prior to release.
29.Check all guards for proper operation before each use. Never disable
guards. Do not operate the Table Saw if the guard assembly does not move
freely and close instantly. Before each use, raise the guard assembly and
make sure it moves freely and does not touch the Saw Blade or any other
part, in all angles and depths of cut.
30.Never perform layout, assembly, or setup work on the Table of the Table
Saw when the machine is running.
31.Always disconnect the Table Saw from its electrical outlet before performing
any services, maintenance, or cleaning such as leaving the work area, moving
the machine from one location to another, changing Saw Blades, cleaning
sawdust from the machine, etc.
32.Make sure to remove all adjusting wrenches from the Table Saw before
turning it on.
33.Use a “push stick” or “auxiliary handle” (neither included) only when ripping
widths of 2” to 6”. Use a “push block” and “auxiliary fence” (neither included)
when ripping widths under 2”.
34.Keep the Table of the Table Saw clean and clear of debris. Remove cut-off
pieces and scraps of wood from the Table before starting the Table Saw.
35.Use the right tool for the job. Do not attempt to force small equipment to do
the work of larger industrial equipment. There are certain applications for which
this Table Saw was designed. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate
for which it was intended. Do not modify this Table Saw, and do not use this
Table Saw for a purpose for which it was not intended.
36. WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities, contain chemicals known (to the State of
California) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are: lead from lead-based paints, crystalline silica
from bricks and cement or other masonry products, arsenic and chromium from
chemically treated lumber. Your risk from these 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 specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
(California Health & Safety Code 25249.5, et seq.)
37. WARNING! People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s)
before using this product. Operation of electrical equipment in close proximity to
a heart pacemaker could cause interference or failure of the pacemaker.
38. WARNING! The warnings and cautions discussed in this manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood
by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built
into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING
WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug used with the tool.
Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the
power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service
facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS
1.Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong
grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If
the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric
shock. (See Figure A.)
2.The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the
cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the
only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached
to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)
3.Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed
certified electrician
and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances.
The plug and outlet should look like that in the following illustration.

EXTENSION CORDS
1.
Grounded
tools require a three wire extension cord.
Double Insulated
tools
can use either a two or three wire extension cord.
2.As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge
extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a
serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.
(See Figure B, next page.)
3.The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.
For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
(See Figure B.)
4.When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make
sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required.
5.If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the
suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
6.Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified
electrician before using it.
7.Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or
wet areas.

Making A Large Panel Cut:
1. WARNING! Make sure the Blade Guard (10D) is lowered over the Saw
Blade (14-I) and is working properly to prevent possible injury.
2.Make sure the Table Saw is properly secured to a work surface to avoid tipping
from the weight of a large panel. (See Figure II.)
3.Place a support the same height as the top of the Saw Table (17H) behind the
Table Saw for cut work. Add supports to the sides as needed. (See Figure II.)
4.Depending on the shape of the panel, use the Rip Fence or Miter Gauge. If the
panel is too large to use either the Rip Fence or Miter Gauge, it is too large for this
Table Saw. Make sure that saw blade is at correct height for the workpiece to be
cut.
5. WARNING! NEVER make freehand cuts (cuts without the Rip Fence or Miter
Gauge), which can result in serious injury.
6.Make sure the workpiece is not touching the Saw Blade (14-I).
7.Plug the Power Cord Plug into the nearest 220 volt, grounded, electrical outlet.
Then, insert the Switch Key and pull the Power Switch (8E) to its “ON” position.
(See Figure BB.)
8.Allow the Saw Blade (14-I) to spin up to full speed before feeding the workpiece
into the Saw Blade. (See Figure II.)
9.Make sure to
gradually
feed the workpiece into the Saw Blade (14-I). Do not
attempt to force the Table Saw to cut faster or greater than its capacity.
(See Figure II.)
10.When the cut is completed, press the Power Switch (8E) to its “OFF” position and
remove the Switch Key. Then, unplug the Power Cord Plug from its electrical
outlet. (See Figure BB.)
IMPORTANT: This Table Saw is not equipped with the proper size Throat Plate
and Spindle to perform dado cuts. Do not attempt to alter the Table Saw
components to perform dado cuts.
INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
1.WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch (8E) of the Table Saw is in its
“OFF” position and the Switch Key is removed. Then, unplug the Power Cord
Plug from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or
cleaning procedures.
2.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Table Saw. Check for
proper guard alignment, damaged V-Belt, binding of moving parts, cracked or
broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect
its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem
corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.
3.Before each use, inspect the Saw Blade (14-I). Using a dull Saw Blade will
cause excessive wear on the Motor of the Table Saw and will not produce a
satisfactory cut. Replace with a new Saw Blade when needed.
4.Before each use, remove sawdust from the Rails (3H, 7H), Saw Table (17H), and
inside the Table Saw. Clean the plastic parts with a soft, damp cloth and mild
detergent. Do not use solvents on plastic parts.
5.Periodically, clean the Saw Table (17H), Rails (3H, 7H), and Rip Fence (10C)
with gum and pitch remover. Do not allow pitch to accumulate on the Table Saw.
6.Periodically, apply a thin coat of paste wax to the Saw Table (17H) so the wood
slides easily while cutting.
7.Frequently, vacuum or blow out any sawdust from the Motor (7F).
8.Lubrication: This Table Saw has been lubricated at the factory prior to shipment.
After extended use, you should inspect, clean, and lubricate the areas shown in
the illustration below. Clean before lubricating with a solvent recommended for
gum and pitch removal. Lubricate with machine oil.
9.To replace the V-Belt: This Table Saw uses a V-Belt (40-I) with a 44”
circumference by 1/2” wide. To replace the V-Belt, loosen the two Set Screws
(42-I). Push the Motor (7F) forward to release tension on the V-Belt. Open the
Outer Belt Guard(1F) to expose the Motor Pulley (5F). Slip the V-Belt off the
Motor Pulley and off the Spindle Pulley (42-I). Install a new V-Belt on the Motor
Pulley and Spindle Pulley. Pull back on the Motor to increase tension on the new
V-Belt. With moderate pressure, push the center of each V-Belt. Note the amount
of deflection. Deflection should be approximately 1/2”. Then retighten the two Set
Screws (42-I), and close the Outer Belt Guard (1F).
(See Figure MM, next page.)
