ADDiTiONAL SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS FOR TABLE SAWS

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT

OPERATE YOUR SAW UNTIL iT IS COMPLETELY

ASSEMBLED AND iNSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS ... AND UNTIL YOU HAVE

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING.

1. GENERAL SAFETY iNSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER TOOLS o..SEE PAGE 2

2. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SAW...SEE PAGE

20.

3. BASIC SAW OPERATION... SEE PAGE 23.

4. MAINTENANCE... SEE PAGE 32.

5. STABILITY OF SAW

if there is any tendency for the saw to tip over or move during certain cutting operations such as

cutting extremely large heavy panels or long

heavy boards the saw should be bolted down If you attach any kind of table extensions over 24" wide to either end of the saw, make sure you

either bo_t the saw to the bench or floor as appropriate, or support the outer end of the

extension from the bench or floor as appropriate

6. LOCATION

The saw should be positioned so neither the

operator nor a causal observer is forced to stand in line with the saw blade

7. KICKBACKS

A "KICKBACK" occurs during a rip-type operation when a part or all of the workpiece is

thrown back violently toward the operator Keep your face and body to one side of the

sawblade out of line with a possible "Kickback'" Kickbacks -- and possible injury from them --

can usually be avoided by:

A Maintaining the rip fence parallel to the

sawbtade

B Keeping the sawblade sharp Replace or

sharpen antikickback pawls when points

become dull

C Keeping sawblade guard, spreader, and

antikickback pawls in place and operating properly The spreader must be in alignment

with the sawblade and the pawls must stop a kickback once it has started

Check their action before ripping.

D, NOT ripping work that is twisted or warped

or does not have a straight edge to guide along the rip fence,

E, NOT releasing work until you have pushed it

aH the way past the sawblade.

F, Using a push stick for ripping widths of 2 to 6

in., and an auxiliary fence and push block for ripping widths narrower than 2 in. (See "Basic Saw Operation Using The Rip Fence"

section.)

G. NOT confining the cut-off piece when

ripping or cross-cutting,

H, When ripping apply the feed force to the

section of the workpiece between the saw blade and the rip fence,

8. PROTECTION: EYES, HANDS, FACE, EARS,

BODY A, If any part of your saw is malfunctioning, has

been damaged or broken , . . such as the

motor switch, or other operating control, a safety device or the power cord . .. cease

operating immediately until the particular part is proper_y repaired or replaced

B Small loose pieces of wood or other obiects

that contact the rear of the revolving b_ade can be thrown back at the operator at excessive speed This can usuaIiy be avoided

by keeping the guard and spreader in p}ace for ai_ thru-sawing operations (sawing

entirely thru the work) AND by removing all loose pieces from the table with a long st_ck

of wood IMMEDIATELY after they are cut off

C Use extra caution when the guard assembly

is removed for resawing, dadoing, rabbeting, or molding -- replace the guard as soon as

that operation is completed.

D, For rip or rip-type cuts, the following end )f a

workpiece to which a push stick or push board is applied must be square

(perpendicular to the fence) in order that

feed pressure applied to the workpiece by the push stick or block does not cause the

workpiece to come away from the fence, and possibly cause a kickback.

E During rip and rtp type cuts, the workp_ece

must be held down on the tabJe and against the fence with a push stick, push b_ock or featherboards. A featherboard is made of

solid lumber per sketch.

........ K &;_:{: &_-OLI ' I

i .................... J ]

F NEVER turn the saw "ON'" before clearing

the table of all tools_ wood scraps, etc., except the workpiece and re!ated feed or support dewces for the operation planned.

G. NEVER place your face or body tn tine with

the cutting toot,

H. NEVER place your fingers or hands _n the

path of the sawblade or other cuthng tool.

f NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool w_th

either hand to hold down or support the workp_ece, remove wood scraps, or for any

other reason Avoid awkward operations ana hand posihons where a sudden shp cou}d

cause fingers or hand to move into a sawblade or other cutting tool

J DO NOT perform layout assembly or setup

work on the table ,while the cutting too! is rotating

K DO NOT perform any operation

"FREEHAND" -- always use either the np

fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the work

L NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting

or the miter gauge when ripping DO NOT use the rip fence as a _ength stop

Never hold onto or touch the "free end" of the workpiece or a "free piece' that is cut off

while power is "ON" and/or the sawblade _s

rotating

M Shut "OFF" the saw and d_sconnect the

power cord when removing the table insert changing the cutting too| remowng or

replacing the blade _uard. or ma_mg adjustments.

N Provide adequate support to the rear and

sides of the saw table for wider or long workpieces.

O. 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, be especially attentive to following proper set-up and cutting procedures for ripping. Do not stand, or

permit anyone else to stand, in line with a potential kickback.

P. If you stall or jam the sawblade in the

workpiece, turn saw "OFF", remove the workpiece from the sawblade and check to

see if the sawblade is parallel to the miter gauge grooves and if the spreader _s in

proper alignment with the sawblade. If ripping at the time, check to see if the rip

fence is parallel with the sawblade. Readjust as indicated.

Q. DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off

material that may become trapped inside the blade guard while the saw is running. This

could endanger your hands or cause a

kickback. Turn saw *OFF and wait until blade stops.

R. Use extra care when ripping wood that has a

twisted g rain or is twisted or bowed it may

rock on the table and/or pinch the sawblade.

9. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS

A. Dull, gummy, orJmproperlysharpened orset

cutting tools can cause material to stick, jam,

stall the saw or kickback at the operator.

Minimize potential injury by proper cutting

tool and machine maintenance.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE SAW OFF.

B. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off

wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels.

10. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR

THiS SAW.

11. Crosscutting operations are more convenientJy worked and with greater safety if an auxiliary

wood facing isattached tothe mitergauge using

the holes provided. However, the facing must not interfere with the proper functioning of the

sawblade guard ....

12. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates toward you when standing in normal

operating position. Also make sure the cutting

tool, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting tool as low as

possible for the operation being performed.

Keep all guards in place whenever possible.

13. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool in severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles marked for an operating speed less than 3450 complying with ANSI Z87.I (shown on Package)

RPM. Never use a cutting toot larger in diameter before commencing power tool operation. Safety than the diameter for which the saw was Goggles are available at Sears retail or catalog

designed. For greatest safety and efficiency stores.

when ripping, use the maximum diameter blade for which the saw is designed, since under these

conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.

14.

Adjust table inserts flush with the table top.

NEVER operate the saw unless the proper insert is installed.

15.

NEVER feed material into the cutting tool from

the rear of the saw. An accident and serious

injury could result.

17.

NEVER use another person as a substitute for a

table extension, or as additional support for a

workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic saw table, or to assist in feeding or supporting or

pulling the workpiece.

DO NOT pull the workpiece through the sawblade - position your body at the nose (in- feed) side of the guard: start and complete the

cut from the same side This will require added table support for long or wide workpeices that extend beyond the length or width of the saw

table.

18, THINK SAFETY.

Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times when the saw is

being used.

19. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY iNSTRUC-

TIONS THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.

2. Push handwheels onto shafts as shown and

fasten each with a 10-32 x 3/4 in. screw and Iockwasher.

CHECKING AND ADJUSTmNG THE TABLE iNSERT

The table insert must be flush with the surface of the saw table to keep the workpiece from hanging up or binding with the sawblade as the workpiece is cut by the sawb ade.

1. Lower sawblade beneath the table insert and check to be sure the screw fastening the insert in

place is snug.

2. Use a straight edge to check near each of the eight leveling tab positions to determine if the

insert is flush with the surface of the saw table at all eight beveling tab positions.

3. If insert is not flush with table surface loosen

insert fastening screw and pull insert forward to lift from saw table.

HEEUNG ADJUSTMENT OR PARALLEL-

iSM OF THE SAWBLADE TO THE MITER GAUGE GROOVE

The workpiece being cut must always move in a straight line parallel to the sawblade. Therefore.

both the miter gauge groove and the rip fence must

always be parallel with the sawblade.

If the sawblade is NOT parallel with the miter gauge

groove and the rip fence, the workpiece will bind at one end of the cut. This is known as "heeling".

WARNING: For your own safety, turn switch "OFF"

and remove plug from power source outlet.

1. Raise blade to highest elevation.

2. Lift blade guard, if already installed, to highest position.

3. Use chalk or another suitable marker to mark an "X" on one of the teeth of the sawblade which is

naturally bent to the left.

MARK "X" ON TOOTH

4. Using an accurate combination square, placethe head of the square in the miter gauge groove and adjust the ruler blade of the square so that the end of the blade just touches the side of thetooth you

marked on the sawblade. Remember to keep the head of the square flush against the miter gauge

groove.

7. If sawblade does not appear to be parallel with the miter gauge groove you must adjust the

position of the sawblade by loosening the four adjustment locking screws about 1/2 turn.

8. Loosen two pan head screws, 10-32, on the rear skirt of the table about 1/2 turn.

9. The mechanism under the table can now be moved sideways from above by covering the

sawblade with a piece of cardboard and shifting the blade to the right or left as required.

10. After shifting the sawblade mechanism slightly, recheck the position of the marked tooth of the

sawblade at both front and rear.

11. The tooth marked on the sawblade should be parallel to the miter gauge groove after

adjustment is made.

12. Tighten all screws carefully so as not to move sawblade out of alignment.

13. Recheck parallelism of marked sawblade tooth to the miter gauge groove. Repeat the steps for heeling adjustment if necessary.

5. Rotate the sawblade so that the "X" on the tooth is now visible at the rear of the saw.

6. Move the combination square to the rear of the saw and the end of the square blade should just

touch the marked tooth the same as it did at the front of the sawblade.
