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 UNDERSTOOD THE FOLLOWING.

1. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER

TOOLS... SEE PAGE 2

2. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SAW... SEE PAGE 20

3. BASIC SAW OPERATION... SEE PAGE 23

4. ADJUSTMENTS... SEE PAGE 29

5. MAINTENANCE... SEE PAGE 32

6, 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 in. wide, make sure they are supported underneath by sturdy 0race attached to saw base or bench.

7. LOCATION

The saw should be oositioned so neither the operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand in line with the

saw blade.

8. KICKBACKS

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 ;o 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 oarallel to the sawblade. B. Keeong the sawblade sharp. Replacing

anti-kickback oawls when points become dull.

C. KeeDing_ sawblade guard, spreader, and

anti-kickback pawls in place and o 0erating properly. The spreader must be in alignment with the

sawblade anG the oawls must stop a <ickback once it has started. Check their action before ripping.

D. NOT ripping work that is twisted or warped or does

not have a straight eage to guide along the rip fence.

E. NOT releasing work until you have pushed it all the

way oast 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 na-rower tnan 2 in. (See "Basic Saw

Operation Using The RiD 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.

9. 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 operat]n 9 control, a safety device or the

power cord ... cease operating immediately until the particular Dart is properly repaired or replaced.

B. Wear safety goggles that comply with ANS

Z87.1-1968, and a face shield if operation isdusty. 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 01ace for all thru-sawing operations

(sewing entirely thru the workJ 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" _)efore 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 oack of the cutting tool with

either hand to hold down or support the workplece,

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 sawblade or other cutting tool.

I. DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work

on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.

J. DO NOT perform any operation "FREEHAND"

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

K. NEVER Use the rip fence when crosscutting or the

miter guage when ripping. DO NOT use the rip fence as a length stop.

Never hold ent0or 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.

L. Shtit "OFF" the saw and disconnect the power cord

when ,removing the table insert, changin£ the cutting toot, removing or replacing the blade guard, or making adjustments.

M. Provide adeauate support to the rear and sides of

the saw table for wider or tong workpieces,

N. Plastic and composition like hardboard) materials

may be cut on your saw. However, since these are usually quite hard and slippery, the anti-kickback 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.

O. If you stall or jam the sawblade in the workpiece,

turn saw "OFF", remove the workDiece from the sawblade, and check to see if the sawblade s

parallel to the table slots or grooves ana if the spreader is n proper alignment with the sawblade. If ripping at the time, check to see if the rid fence is parallel with the sawblade. Readjust as indicated.

10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS A. Dull, gummy, or improperly sharpeneu or _et cutting

tools can cause materia to stick, jam, stall the saw, or kickback at the onerator.

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.

11. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS SAW,

12. Cross-cutting operations are more conveniently worked

and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is attached to the miter gauge usingthe holes provided,

13. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates toward you when standing in norm_ 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 _ossible.

14. Do not useany blade or other cutting tool marked for

an operating speed lessthan 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 whicl_ the saw is designed, since under these

conditions the spreader isnearest the blade.

15. Adjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER operate the saw unlessthe proper insert is installed.

16. THINK SAFETY.

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

17. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.

ALIGNING RIP FENCE

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 wi;_h 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.

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.

of fence sothat it is parallel with groove.

C. Alternately tighten the screws.

ADJUSTING RIP SCALE POINTER

1. Turn ELEVATION crank counterclockwise until blade is up as high as it will go.

IMPORTANT: BLADE must be SQUARE (90 ° ) to TABLE, in order to ALIGN rip fence.

2. Position fence on right side of sawblade so that it touches the sides of the teeth ... tighten lock handle.

3. Loosen screw holding the pointer ... adjust pointer so that it points to "0'" ... tighten screw.

NOTE: If you cannot adjust pointer so that it points to "0", loosen the screws holding the front guide bar and move the guide bar.

REPOSITIONING RIP FENCE GUIDE BARS

NOTE: If most of your work does not require 24 in. of rip capacity, the bars may be reposi tioned to allow 12 in. of rip

capaGity to the right, or 10-1/2 n. to the left. The rip scale, however, only reads to the right.

There is a second set of numerals reading from 0 to 12 in. to the right which can be used when the rails are repositioned.

1. Attach FRONT bar by inserting bolts through FIFTH and NINTH holes in bar and through RIGHT and LEFT

holes in table.

_ o 1-...__!

2. Attach REAR bar using SIXTH and EIGHTH holes in bar.

NOTE: Remove screws from Table Extensions ... the ones

closest to the table. Reinstall them after attaching guide bar. If extension is used on right side of saw, remove the Guide Bar Rod.
