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 UNDERSTOOD THE FOLLOWING.

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 panelsor long heavy boards, the
saw should be bolted down.
If you attach any kind of table extensions over 24 in.
wide, make sure they are supported underneath by a
sturdy brace attached to saw base or bench.
LOCATI ON
7.
The saw should be positioned so neither the operator
nor a casual observer is forced to stand in line with the
saw blade.
B.
KI CKBACKS
Kickbacks can cause serious injury: A "KICKBACK"
occurs when a part of the workpiece binds between the
sawblade and the rip fence or other fixed object, rises
from the table, and is thrown 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 sawblade.
B. Keeping the sawblade sharp. Replacing 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 all the
way past the sawblade.
F. Using a "PUSH STICK" (See Page 16) for ripping
widths of 2 to 6 in,, and an auxiliary fence and push
block for ripping widtt_s narrower than 2 in. (See
"Basic Saw Operation Using The Rip Fence" section.)
G. NOT confining the cut-off piece when ripping or
crosscutti ng.
H. When ripping apply the feed force to the section of
the workpiece between the saw blade and the rip
fence.
PROTECTION: EYES, HANDS, FACE, EARS, BODY
9.
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 properly repaired or replaced.
B. Wear safety goggles that comply with ANS! Z87.1,
and a face shield if operation is dusty. Wear ear
plugs or muffs during extended periods of
operation.
C. Small loose pieces of wood or other objects that
contact the rear of the revolving blade can be
thrown back at the operator at excessive speed. This
can usually be avoided by keeping the guard and
spreader in place for all "THRU-SAWING"
operations (sawing entirely thru the work) AND by
removing all loose pieces from the table with a long
stick of wood IMMEDIATELY after they are cut
off.
D. 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.
E. NEVER turn the saw "ON" before clearing the
table of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except the
workpiece and related feed or support devices for
the operation planned.
F. NEVER place your face or body in line with the
cutting tool.
G. NEVER place your fingers or hands in the path of
the sawblade or other cutting tool.
H. NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with
either hand to hold down or support the workpiece,
remove wood scraps, or for any other reason. Avoid
awkward operations and hand positions where a
sudden slip could cause fingers or hand to move
into a sawbtade or other cutting tool.
I. DO NOT perform any operation "FREEHAND" -
always use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to
position and guide the work.
J. NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting or the
miter gauge when ripping. DO NOT use the rip
fence as a length 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 is rotating.
K. Shut "OFF" the saw and disconnect the power cord
when removing the table insert, changing the
cutting tool, removing or replacing the blade guard,
or making adjustments.
L. Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of
the saw table for wider or long workpieces.
M. 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.
N. DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work
on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.
O. 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 is 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.
10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
A Dull, gummy, or improperly sharpened or set cutting
tools can cause material to stick, jam. stall the saw
or kickback at the operator,
Minimize potential injury by proper cutting too_
and mach{ne maintenance.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED
SAWBLADE WITHOUT F_RST TURNING THE
SAW OFF.

B. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels,
friction wheels (metal slitting blades)wire wheels or
buffing wheelS.
11. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS
SAW.
12. Crosscutting operations are more conveniently worked
functioning of the sawblade guard.
13; 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. Keepall guards in place whenever possible.
14. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for
an operating speed less 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.
15. Adjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER
Operate the saw unlessthe proper insert is installed.
16. Never feed material into the cutting tool from the rear
of the saw. An accident and seriousinjury could result.
WEAR YOUR
17. Always maintain control of the workpiece -- DO NOT
"let go" the workpiece until the cutting tool has come
to a stop.
18. IF YOUR SAW MAKES AN UNFAMILIAR NOISE OR
IF IT VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY CEASE
OPERATING IMMEDIATELY UNTIL THE SOURCE
HAS BEEN LOCATED AND THE PROBLEM
CORRECTED.
19. If any part of this table saw is missing or should break,
bend or fail in any way, or any electrical component
fail to perform properly, shut off power switch, remove
cord from power supply and replace damaged, missing
and/or failed parts before resuming operation.
20. THINK SAFETY.
Safety is a combination of operator common senseand
alertness at all times when the saw is being used.
21. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.

This power tool is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and
grou nding type plug which has a ground ing prong, approved
by Underwriters' Laboratories and the Canadian Standards
Association. The ground conductor has a green lug and is
attached to the tool housing at one end and to the ground
prong in the attachment plug at the other end.
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 lugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept the
tools plug.

ALiGNiNGRIPFENCE
The fence should slide easily along the bars and always
remain in alignment (parallel to sawblade and miter gauge
grooves).
The alignment is maintained by a spring underneath the
fence which bears against the front guide bar.
To move the fence, loosen the lock handle and grasp the
fence with one hand at the front.
For very close adjustments, grasp the guide bar with both
hands and move the fence with your thumbs.
Place fence on saw but DO NOT LOCK IT,
Move the REAR END of the fence slightly to the right or
left ... when you release it, the fence should "'spring'"
back to its original position.
If it does not, the spring pressure must be INCREASED.
1. Loosen the screws.
2. Move Spring slightly toward front of fence.
