additional safety instructions for radial saws

CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cord before

removing the guard, changing the cutting tool, changing the set-up or making adjustments. Shut off motor before performing layout work on the saw table.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT POWER CORD UNTIL THE FOLLOWING STEPS HAVE BEEN

SATISFACTORI LY COMPLETED:

!. Assembly and alignment.

II. Examination and operating familiarity with ON-OFF

switch, elevation control, yoke index and lock bevel index and lock, carriage lock, guard clamp screw, spreader and ant(kickback device, and miter index and

lock.

III. Review and understanding of all Safety Instructions and

Operating Procedures thru-out manual.

INSTALLATION

1. Set carriage lock before moving the saw.

2. Bolt the saw to the floor if it tends to slip, walk, or

slide during normal operation.

3. Mount the saw so the table is approximately 39" above

the floor.

4. Mount the saw so the arm slopes slightly downward to

the rear so the carriage will not roll forward due to gravity.

5. If you attach any kind of table extensions over 24" wide to either end of the saw, make sure you either bolt the saw to the bench or floor as appropriate, or support the outer end of the extension from the bench or floor,

as appropriate.

MINIMIZE ACCIDENT POTENTIAL

Most accidents are caused by FAILURE TO FOLLOW

setup and operating instructions:

(A) GENERAL

- Avoid awkward hand positions, where a sudden slip could cause a hand to move into a sawblade or other cutting tool Never reach in back of or around the

cutting tool with either hand to hold down the workpiece, or for any other reason; DO NOT place

fingers or hands in the path of the sawblade

Never saw, dado, mold. or rabbet unless the proper

guard (complete with all its parts)is installed and set

up as instructed

IF YOUR SAW MAKES AN UNFAMILIAR NOISE OR IF

IT VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY CEASE OPERATING

LOCATED AND THE PROBLEM CORRECTED

- WARNING: ALWAYS KEEP ALERT. DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY (GAINED FROM

FREQUENT USE OF YOUR SAW) TO CAUSE A CARELESS MISTAKE ALWAYS REMEMBER

THAT A CARELESS FRACTION OFASECONDIS

SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE INJURY.

-Before starting work, verify that no play exists between the column & column support, or in the

carriage, and that arm, yoke, and bevel locks/clamps are tight.

-A large proportion of saw accidents is caused by use of the wrong type blade, dull, badly set, improperly

sharpened cutting tools, by gum or resin adhering to cutting tools, and by sawblade misalignment

out-of-parallel with the fence. Such conditions can cause the material to stick, jam (stall the saw) or

"KICKBACK" at the operator. NEVER ATTEMPT

TO FREE A STALLED SAW BLADE WITHOUT

FIRST TURNING THE SAW "OFF". If the

sawblade is stalled or jammed, shut saw "OFF", remove workpiece, and check sawblade squareness to table surface and to the fence, and check for heel. Adjust as indicated.

-CAUTION: DO NOT cycle the motor switch "ON" and "OFF" rapidly, as this might cause the sawblade to loosen. In the event this should ever occur, allow the saw blade to come to a complete stop and

re-tighten the arbor nut normally, not excessively.

-Do not leave a long board unsupported so the spring of the board causes it to shift on the table. Provide

proper support for the workpiece, based on its size and the type of operation to be performed. Hold the

work firmly against the fence.

- Never use a length stop on the free end or edge of the workpiece whether crosscutting or ripping. Never

hang onto or touch the free end of workpiece when crosscutting, or a free piece that is cut off while

power is "ON" andtor the saw blade is rotating. In

short, the cut-off piece in any "thru-sawing" operation must never be confined - it must be

allowed to move laterally.

-Make sure your fingers do not contact the terminals

when installing or removing the plug to or from a live

power source.

-- Never climb on the saw, or climb near the saw when power is "ON". Never leave the saw with power

"ON", or before the cutting tool has come to a

complete stop. Lock the motor switch and put away the key when leaving the saw.

-Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked

for an operating speed lower than 3450 RPM. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for which the saw was designed. For greatest safety

and efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter blade for which the saw is designed, since

under these conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.

-Never turn your saw "ON" before clearing the table or work surface of all objects (tools, scraps of wood,

etc.) except the workpiece and related feed or support devices for the operation planned.

- DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.

Never perform any operation "FREE HAND". This term means feeding the sawblade into the workpiece

or feeding the workpiece into the sawblade or other cutting tool without using the fence or some other device which prevents rotation or twisting of the

workpiece during the operation. Never "RIP" in the crosscut position. Never make a miter cut with the arm in the 90 ° crosscut position.

- Never lower a revol_ing cutting tool into the table or a workpiece without first locking the Carriage Lock

Knob. Release the knob only after grasping the Yoke Handle. Otherwise the cutting tool may grab the

workpiece and be propelled toward you.

-]-he sawb}ade, flaflo, or other cutting too) mu_t be 12. DO NO]" pull the workplece through the sawblade removed from the saw arbor before using the

accessory shaft (rear end of the saw motor). NEVER

operate the saw with cutting tools (including sanding

accessories) installed on both ends of the saw arbor. Do not tJse fences made of chipboard - use 3/4" virgin lumber only, extending in one piece from end

to end of the saw table.

(B) RIPPING

Ripping is cutting with the grain or the long way of the board - it is performed by pushing the workpiece along the fence and thru the sawblade (sawblade parallel to the fence).

1. Never apply the feed force to the section of the workpiece that will become the cut-off (free) piece.

Feed force when ripping must always be applied between the saw blade and the fence . . . use a

"'PUSH STICK" (see pg. 25 for narrow or short work.)

2. Whenever possible, use the in-rip position - this provides minimum obstruction for feeding by hand

or push stick as appropriate.

3. Do not release the workpiece before operation is

complete - push the workpiece all the way past the rear (outfeed or exit) of the sawblade.

4. Make sure by trial before starting the cut that the

antikickback pawls will stop a kickback once it has started. Keep points of pawls SHARP!

5. Use a push stick when ripping short (under 12

inches) or narrow (under 6 inches wide) workpieces.

6. CAUTION: Never reposition the Guard or

antikickback with power "ON".

7. A "KICKBACK" occurs during a rip-type operation

when a part or all of the workpiece is thrown back violently toward the operator. It can occur when

the workpiece closes in on the rear (outfeed side) of

the sawblade (pinching), binds between the fence and the sawblade (heel), or is grabbed by the

sawblade teeth (wrong-way feed) at the outfeed side. "PINCHING" is generally avoided by utilization of the spreader, and a sharp sawblade of the correct type for the workpiece being cut.

"HEEL" can be avoided by maintaining the sawblade exactly parallel to the fence. Grabbing by the sawblade teeth can be caused by heel or by

feeding from the wrong direction (see "DANGER" warning on guard) - it can be avoided by maintaining parallelism of sawblade to fence,

feeding into the sawblade from the nose of the guard only, by positioning the spreader and

antikickback properly, and keeping the workpiece down on the table and against the fence.

8. Position the nose of the guard to just clear the workpiece, and position/adjust the antikickback

and spreader devices as instructed.

9. NEVER cut more than one piece at a time by

stacking workpieces vertically.

10. NEVER feed a workpiece thru the saw with another

piece (butting second piece against trailing edge of piece being cut), even if of the same thickness. Feed

each workpiece individually thru the sawblade, and completely beyond the sawblade, before ripping the

next workpiece. Use push stick if the rip cut is less

than 6" wide.

1 1. NEVER use another person as a substitute for a

table extension, or as additional support for a workpieee that is longer or wider than the basic saw

table, or to assist in feeding or supporting or pulling the workpiece.

position your body at the nose (in-feed) side of the guard: start and complete thecut from that same

side. This will require added table support for long or wide workpieces that extend beyond the length

or width of the saw table.

13. Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materials may be cut on your saw. However, since these are

usually quite hard and slippery, the antikickback

pawls may not stop a kickback.

Therefore, rip with the finished side down (next to

the table) and be especially attentive to following proper set-up and cutting procedures. Do not stand,

or permit anyone else to stand, in line with a

potential kickback.

14. When sawing 1/4" or thinner materials, follow all

normal ripping procedures except set sawblade into table top at least 1/8". DO NOT let go of or stop feeding the workpiece between the blade and fence

until you have pushed it completely past the antikickback pawls. Otherwise the workpiece could get into the back of the sawblade and be thrown violently from the saw in the direction opposite to

the feed direction. This is the same action that would occur if the instructions of the DANGER

warning on the guard is aborted. Do not stand, or permit anyone else to stand, in line with the path of

a workpiece that may be thrown from the saw in this

manner.

15. Position the saw so neither you, a helper, or a casual observer is forced to stand in line with the

sawblade.

16. Use extra care when ripping wood that has a twisted grain or is twisted or bowed -- it may rock on the table and/or pinch the sawblade.

17. Shaping of wood with a dado head or a molding head can be performed "top-side" (cutting tool basically vertical and employing sawblade guard),

or "edge" (saw arbor vertical -- cutting tool horizontal -- and employing the Accessory molding head guard).

Ploughing (Grooving with the grain),

Top side rabbeting,

Top side molding

(shaping) ......

resawing, gaining, coving, with the grain, are examples of rip-type cuts. The same basic setup

procedures including rotation of the guard and adjusting and positioning of the AKB/Spreader device as for in-rip or out-rip cutting, apply.

However, since none of these operations involve thru-sawing (sawing through the workpiece), there iS no kerf. Therefore the spreader and AKB pawls can only be lowered to a position where the spreader just clears the workpiece.

CAUTION: The AKB/Spreader device will not

stop a kickback in this position, but will act as a holddown and as a guard of the out-feed side of

the sawblade.

18.

For rip or rip-type cuts, the following end of a workpiece to which a push stick or push board is

applied must be square (perpindicular to the fence)

in order that feed pressure applied to theworkpiece

by the push stick or block does not cause the workpiece to come away from the fence, and

possibly cause a kickback.

1. ALWAYS RETURN THE CARRIAGE TO THE FULL REARWARD POSITION AT CONCLUSION OF EACH CROSSCUT TYPE OPERATION. Never remove your hand from the Yoke Handle unless the

carriage is in this position. Otherwise the cutting tool may climb up on the workpiece and be

propelled toward you.

2. Place guard in horizontal position and adjust antikickback pawls to just clear the top of the fence or workpiece, whichever is higher. This provides additional guarding.

3. NEVER gang crosscut - lining up more than one workpiece in front of the fence - stacked vertically,

or horizontally outward on the table - and then pulling saw thru: the blade could pick up one or more pieces and cause a binding or loss of control

and possible injury.

4. Do not position the Arm so the operation you are performing permits the cutting tool to extend beyond the edges of the Table.

5. Top-side dadoing or molding across the grain are examples of crosscut-type cuts. The same basic

procedures including positioning of the AKB/Spreader device as for crosscutting, apply.

(D) ACCESSORIES

1. Use only recommended accessories as listed on page 33.

2. Never operate this saw when equipped with a dado head or molding head unless the molding head

guard is installed - see listing of recommended accessories. The only exception is when "top-side"

dadoing or molding, when the sawblade guard must be used. See detailed instructions that accompany the dado head, molding head, and molding head

guard.

3. The use of grinding wheels, abrasive or cut-off wheels, or wire wheels, can be dangerous and is not

recommended. (Abrasive or cut-off wheels are used

to saw many different materials including metals, stone, and glass.)

4. Drill Chuck: Do not install or use any twist drill larger than 1/2-inch in dia., or longer than 7 inches in length or extending more than 6 inches beyond

the chuck jaws. Do not install or use a'ny reduced shank drill except of the spade type (1 inch dia. or

smaller). "Use for drilling WOOD and PLASTIC only."

NOTE: Do not overtighten arbor nut. Use arbor wrenches

to just "snug" it.

WEAR YOUR

The operation of any power tool can result in foreign

objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles complying

with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on Package) before commencing power tool operation. Safety Goggles are available at Sears

retail or catalog stores.

GROUNDING PRONG

This power tool is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and grounding type plug which has a grounding prong,

Listed by Underwriters' Laboratories. The ground

-onductor has a green jacket and is attached to the tool housing at one end and to the ground prong in the

attachment plug at the other end.

This plug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded type outlet as shown.

electrical connections

If the outlet you are planning to use for this power tool is of the two prong type DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY

MANNER. Use an adapter as shown and always connect

the grounding lug to known ground.

It it recommended that you have a qualified electrician replace the TWO prong outlet with a properly grounded THREE prorgoutlet.

A temporary adapter as shown below _s available for connecting plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The green

grounding lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as to a properly grounded outlet box.

A temporary adapter as illustrated is available for connecting plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

If the motor should suddenly stall while cutting wood, the power switch should be turned off, the tool unpluged and the blade freed from the wood. The motor may now be restarted and the cut finished.

Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result

if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit is fused differently from recommendations. Overloading can

occur if you feed to rapidly or if your saw is misaligned so that the blade heels. Do not use a fuse of greater

capacity without consulting a qualified electrician.

Although the motor is designed for operation on the voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate, normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not more than 10% above or below the nameplate voltage. Heavy loads, however, require that voltage at motor terminals equals the voltage specified on nameplate.

Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect connections, overloading, reduced input voltage (such as small size wires in the supply circuit) or to an overly-long supply circuit. Always check the

connections, the load and the supply circuit, whenever the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire sizes and lengths with the table following.

NOTE: The adapter illustrated is for use only if you already have a properly grounded 2-prong receptacle.

MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION

NOTE: This motor should be blown out, or "vacuumed", frequently to prevent sawdust interference with normal

motor ventilation.

1. This tool should be connected to a 120 volt, 15 amp branch circuit with a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Failure to use the proper size fuse can result in

damage to the motor.

If the motor fails to start, turn the power switch to the

off position immediately. UNPLUG THE TOOL. Check the saw blade to insure that it turns freely and that its teeth are not wedged into the table top. After the blade has been freed, try to start the motor again. If, at this point, the motor still fails to start, refer to the "Motor

Trouble-Shooting Chart."

WIRE SIZES

The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent

over-heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension cord.

Use only 3 wire extension cords which have 3 prong grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept the tools plug.

NOTE: For circuits of greater length, the wire size must be increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage

to the saw motor.

ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE

IMPORTANT:

IN ORDER TO OBTAIN MAXIMUM CUTTING

ACCURACY, THE FOLLOWING SIX STEPS

MUST BE CAREFULLY FOLLOWED. BECOME THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH

THESE STEPS SO THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS

MAINTAIN YOUR SAW IN PROPER

ALIGNMENT. THE ACCURACY OF EACH ADJUSTMENT IS ALWAYS DEPENDENT

UPON THE ACCURA C Y OF THE PRECEDING

ADJUSTMENT.

After following the 6 step assembly and alignment procedure and the Basic Saw operation section refer to

Trouble Shooting section if any difficulty is experienced when performing any sawing operation.

STEP ONE

NOTE: The following adjustment, performed properly, will

result in the work table being parallel to the arm.

ATTACHING AND LEVELING TABLE MOUNTING SUPPORT CHANNELS.

1. Attach table mounting support channels with four square head 5/16-18 x 3/4 screws, Iockwashers and flat

washers and nuts. POSITION SCREWS IN CENTER OF CHANNEL SLOTS, finger tight to permit channels to "slip" against the base when leveling.

2. Release bevel lock lever, move bevel index lever to the left and rotate the motor to positidn saw blade end of

shaft down. Lock bevel lock.

3. Unlock and hold arm control lever in index release position as shown. Position arm against left stop

(approximately 50 ° miter). Loosen carriage lock knob

and position carriage directly over left hand channel.

NOTE: For _afety reasons in accordance with the UL

standard, stops have been provided to prevent 360 ° rotation of the radial arm.

4. Slide the arbor wrench handle between end of motor shaft and mounting channel to act as a feeler gauge.

Carefully lower the motor with elevation crank until the end of shaft is just touching the arbor wrench. The wrench should slide back and forth with only slight

resistance. T_0hten screw "'A".

NOTE: Do not change this elevation setting until both left and right hand table support channels have been

adjusted.

5. Move arm and carriage to screw "B" and tighten support in the same manner.

6. Move arm and carriage to right hand support channel and level in the same manner you adjusted the left hand

support channel.

7. Recheck both support channels to make sure that t_ghtening screws did not affect the accuracy of the

adjustment.

8. Elevate saw and place motor in vertical position to provide clearance for installation of front (work) table.

INSTALLATION OF FRONT (WORK) TABLE.

Place front table board upside down on a workbench or on the floor. Drive T-nut into the hole that is not co unterbored.

2. Align the counterbored holes with matching holes in support channels. Install the five 17/64 inch flat

washers, and four 1/4- 20 x 1 inch Pan-Head machine screws. Just barely start the cup point set screw and the

one (1) ¼ - 20 x 1-3/4 inch Pan Head machine screw in table center holes.

3. Install one 1/4Iockwasher and Hex Nut on each of the four (4) screws in the support channels and tighten.

STEP TWO

ADJUSTING COLUMN TUBE IN COLUMN SUPPORT

NOTE: The following adjustment is very CRITICAL. All future alignment procedures rely on this adjustment being performed correctly. ALL LOOSENESS MUST BE

REMOVED.

1. Index and lock arm at 0 ° Miter. While holding the arm with one hand, hold fingers of

other hand as shown, between column tube and column support. Apply gentle side pressure to the arm in opposing d,rections. Any side to side or rotational

movement (indicated by arrow) can be felt with finger. If looseness exists the following adjustments are

required.

2. Loosen (2) "& - 20 Gib set screws on the left side at the rear of the column support.

3. Elevate, and then lower the Arm: (a)if the column binds and elevation is difficult loosen two 5/16 - 18

plated bolts on front side of the column support until you achieve smooth but firm elevation. (b) If the column moves side-to-side within the column support,

tighten the two 5/16 -- 18 plated bolts until movement disappears elevation should be smooth and firm.

4. Now tighten the (2) 1/_ _ 20 Gib set screws until no noticeable rotational play exists between Column Tube

and Column Support.

5. Recheck elevation and re-adjust if necessary.
