ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR TABLE SAWS

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT B. Wear safety goggles that comply with ANS!

OPERATE YOUR SAW UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY Z87.1, and a face shield or dust mask if

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

READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING:

1. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR

POWER TOOLS... SEE PAGE 2

2. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SAW... SEE PAGE 22

3. BASIC SAW OPERATION ..... SEE PAGE 27

4. MAINTENANCE ............... SEE PAGE 41

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 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.

6. LOCATION

The saw should be positioned so neither the

operator nor a casual 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

sawblade.

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 sawb!ade 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 for ripping widths of 2 to 6

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

G. NOT confining the cut-off piece when

ripping or cross-cutting.

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

A. If any part of your saw is missing,

malfunctioning, or has been damaged or broken . . . such as the motor switch,

electronic controls, or other operating control, a safety device or the power cord...

cease operating immediately until the

particular part is properly repaired or reptaced.

operation is dusty. Wear ear plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation.

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.

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.

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 (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.

During rip 6nd rip type cuts, the workpiece

must be held down on the table and against the fence with a push stick, push block, and featherboards, as required. A featherboard is

made of solid lumber (at least 3/4" thick) per

sketch.

I' 24., .I

5,/16" APART

G. 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.

H. NEVER place your face or body in line with

the cutting tool.

I. NEVER place your fingers or hands in the

path of the sawblade or other cutting tool.

J. 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 sawbiade or other cutting tool.

K. DO NOT perform layouL assembly, or setup

work on the table while the cutting tool is

rotating.

L. DO NOT perform any operation

"FREEHAND" -- always use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the work.

M. 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.

N. Shut "OFF" the saw and disconnect the

oower cord wnen removmg the table insert

changing the cutting tool. removing or replacing the blade guara, or making

adjustments.

O. Provide aaequate support to the rear and

sides of the saw table for wider or long

work _)ieces.

P. Plastic and composition (_ike hardboard)

materials may be cut on your saw. However since these are usually aurte hard ana slippery, the antikickback pawls may not stop

a kickback.

Therefore, be especially attentive to

following proper set-Lp and cutting

;3rocedures for ripping. Do not stand or

permit anyone else to stand, m line with a

3otential kickback.

Q. If you stall or jam the sawblade in the

workpiece turn saw "QFF" and remove the

workpiece from the sawblade. Check to see if

the sawblade is parallel to the m_ter gauge

grooves and if the spreader is in proper alignment with the sawblade. If ripp_ ng at the

time. check to see if the rip fence is parallel

with the sawblade. Readjust as indicated.

R. DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off

materia 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.

S. Use extra care when ripping wood that hasa

twistec grain or is twisted or bowed -- it may

rock on the table and/or oinch the sawblade.

9. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS

A. Dull. gummy, or improperly sharpened orset

cutting tools can cause material to stick, jam. stall the saw. or kickback at me operator.

Minimize 3otential injury by proper cutting

tool ana machine maintenance

NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED

SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE SAW OFF.

B. Never use grinding wheels, abraswe cut-off

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

10. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS SAW

11 Crosscutting operations are worked more

conveniently and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is attached to the miter gauge using me holes orovided. However. the facing mus_ not interfere with the proper functioning of the sawoJaae guard.

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

operating position. AIsd make sure the cutting too, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed

Properly. Keeo the cutting tool as Jow as possJble for the operauon being performea.

Keep all guards in place whenever possible

13. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for an operating speed _ess 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 r_ppmg, use the maximum diameter blade

for which the saw isdesigned, 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.

16. THINK SAFETY. Safety is a combination of operator common

sense and alertness at all times when the saw is

being usea.

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 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.

18. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUC- TIONS THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF

YOUR SAW.

19. WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY (GAINED FROM FREQUENT USE OF YOUR

SAW) TO BECOME COMMONPLACE. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS

FRACTION OF A SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE INJURY.

20. WARNING: THE 2-1/2" SAW PULLEY AND THE 2-112" MOTOR PULLEY FURNISHED, WILL RUN THE BLADE AT APPROXIMATELY 3450

RPM WHEN USED WITH A 3450 RPM MOTOR. NEVER SUBSTITUTE THESE PULLEYS TO

ALIGNING RIP FENCE

The fence should slide easily along the bars and

always remain in alignment (parallel to sawblade and miter gauge grooves).

Thealignment is maintained bya spring underneath

the fence which bears against the fronl 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.

With fence on saw but NOT LOCKED move the

REAR END.of the fence slightly tothe 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... tighten screws.

If the fence does not slide easily along the bars, the pressure of the spring can be REDUCED.

1. Loosen the screws.

2. Move spring slightly toward rear of fence.., tighten screws.

HEELING ADJUSTMENT or PARALLELISM

OF SAWBLADE TO MITER GAUGE GROOVE

While cutting, the material must move in a straight line PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE... therefore the

sawblade must be parallel to both the miter gauge GROOVE ant the RIP FENCE.

If the sawblade IS NOT parallel to the miter gauge

groove, the blade will bind at one end of the cut.

(This is known as "HEELING"). Check the sawblade

as follows.

WARNING -- FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY MAKE CERTAIN THAT SWITCH IS "OFF" AND POWER CORD IS REMOVED FROM POWER SOURCE OUTLET BEFORE CHECKING OR ADJUSTING

SAW.

1. Mark an "x" on one of the teeth which is SET (bent) to the LEFT.

2. Place the.head of a combination square in the GROOVE...adjust blade of square so that it just

touches the tip of the MARKED tooth. Lock the

blade of the square.

3. Move square to REAR. rotate blade to see if MARKED tooth again touches blade of square.

4. If tooth touches square at FRONT and

REAR...sawblade is PARALLEL to MITER

GAUGE GROOVE.

FENCE HEAD

5 If tooth does not touch the same amount.., the

mechanism underneath must be adjusted to make the blade PARALLEL to GROOVE.

A. Rear trunnion must be moved TOWARD the

combination square if there is a space

between marked tooth and end of square in

step 4.

B, Rear trunnion must be moved AWAYfrom the

square if marked tooth pushes square out of position in the groove.

FRONT TRUNNIOI_

NOTE: All six screws can be reached through back of saw. Use a 9/16-in. wrench. To reach left-hand

front trunnion screws, tilt blade to approximately 25° . After loosening screws reposition blade at 90° .

To make this adjustment:

a. Plug saw into power outlet. b. Insert yellow key into MASTER switch and

turn on.

c. Press _ key.

d. Press and hold _ key to tilt sawblade to

approximately 25° to obtain clearance for wrench.

e. Turn switch off. Remove yellow key.

f. Loosen all three screws that hold the rear

trunnion and all three screws that hold the front trunnion.

g. Insert yellow key into MASTER switch and

turn on.

h. Press _ key.

7. Securely tighten all six trunnion screws following previous steps to tilt blade to obtain clearance for

wrench.

8. Recheck alignment after tightening screws. Readjust as needed.

ADJUSTING RIP SCALE INDICATOR

IMPORTANT: BLADE must be SQUARE (90°) to

TABLE, in order to ALIGN rip lence.

1. Using a rule, position fence on right side of sawblade 2 in. from the sides of the

teeth ... tighten lock handle.

2. Loosen screw holding the indicator ... adjust so that it points to "2" on the rip
