When Installing Or Moving The Saw

Avoid Dangerous Environment.

• Use the saw in a dry, indoor place protected from rain. « Keep work area well lighted

• Use recommended accessories, Consult the owner's manual for recommended accessories. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to persons

To avoid injury from unexpected saw movement.

• Boit or damp the saw to firm level surface where there is plenty of room to handle and properly support the work piece {See “Assembty-y ounting Your Saw" seclion)

• Support the saw so the table is level and the saw does not rock

' When using a table extension longer than 12'“ attached

to any side of the saw, bolt the saw to a stationary sur face or prop up the outer end of the extension from the floor or bench top to keep the saw from tipping

' Put the saw where neither operator nor bystanders

must stand in line with the sawblade.,

' To avoid injury from electrical shock, make sure your

fingers do not touch the plug’s metal prongs when plugging in or unplugging the saw.

' Never Stand On Tool. Serious injury couid occur if the

tool tips or you accidentally hit the cutting tool Do not store anything above or near the tool where anyone might stand on the tool to reach them.

Before Each Use

Inspect your saw.

® To avoid injury from accidentai starting, turn the switch

off, unplug the saw, and remove the switch key before raising or removing the guard, changing the cutting tool, changing the setup, or adjusting anything- Make sure switch is in OFF position before plugging in,

• Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving

parts, breakage of parts, saw stabiiify, and any other conditions that may affect the way the saw works

• If any part is missing, bent or broken in any way, or any

eiectricaf part does not work properly, turn the saw off and unplug the saw

Replace damaged or missing parts before using the saw again,

Keep guards in place and in working order Use the sawblade guard, spreader and anti-kickback

pawls for any thru-sawing (whenever the blade comes through the lop of the workpiece}- Make sure the anti kickback pawls work properly Make sure the spreader is in line with sawblade (See “Assembly-Aligning Blade Guard” section)

Remove adjusting keys and wrenches Form a habit of checking for and removing keys and adjusting wrenches from table top before turning saw on

‘ Make sure ail clamps and locks are tight and no parts

have excessive play-

To Avoid Injury From Jams, Slips Or Thrown

Inspect Your Blade.

• Choose the right blade or cutting accessory for the

material and the type of cutting you plan to do

e Us© The Right Tool. Don’t force tool or attachment to

do a job it was not designed for,

« Never use grinding wheeis, abrasive cutoff wheels,

friction wheels (metal cutting blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels They can fly apart explosively

• Cut only wood, wood like or plastic materiais. Do not

cut metal

• Choose and inspect your cutting tool carefully:

- To avoid cutting tool failure and thrown shrapnel (broken pieces of blade), use only 10” or smaller

blades or other cutting tools marked for speeds of 5000 rpm or higher

- Always use unbroken, balanced blades designed to

fit this saw's 5/8 inch arbor,

- When thru-sawing (making cuts where the biade comss through the workpiece top), always use a 10

inch diameter blade - This keeps the spreader closest

to the blade

- Do not over tighten arbor nut Use arbor wrenches to “snug" it securely,

- Use only sharp blades with properly set teeth. Con sult a professional blade sharpener when in doubt.

- Keep blades clean of gum and resin

- Never use the saw without the proper blade insert

Inspect your work area.

• Keep work area clean,

• Clutisred areas and benches invite accidents Floor nnust not be slippery from wax or sawdust

• To avoid burns or other fire damage, never use the saw near flammable liquids, vapors or gases,

»To avoid injury, don't do layout, assembly, or setup

work on the table white blade is spinning. It could cut or throw anything hitting th© biade

Plan your work

• Use the right tool Don't force tool or attachment to do

a job it was not designed for

Pieces (Kickbacks Of Throwbacks)

Inspect your workpiece,

• Make sure there are no nails or foreign objects in the part of the workpiece to be cut.

« When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your

work so it wili not slip and pinch the blade:

• A piece of molding for example, must lie flat or be held by a fixture or jig that will not let it twist, rock or slip while being cut. Use jigs or fixtures where needed to prevent workpiece from shifting

• Use a different, better suited type of too! for Work that can't be made stable

Plan your cut,

• To avoid kickbacks and throwbacks - when a part or ail of the workpiece binds on the biade and is thrown vio

lently back toward the front of the saw:

- Never cut Freshand, Always use either a rip fence, miter gauge or fixture to position and guide the work, so it won't twist or bind on the blade and kick back.

- Make sure there’s no debris between the workpiece and its supports

• Use extra caution with large, very small or awkward workpieces,

»Use extra supports (tables, saw horses, blocks, etc)

for any workpieces large enough to tip when not held down to the table top Never use another person as a substitute for a table extension, or as additional sup port for a workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic saw tabie, or to help feed, support or pull the workpiece

• Never confine the piece being cut off, that is, the piece not against the rip fence, miter gauge or fixture Never hold it, damp it, touch it, or use length stops against it It must be free to move If confined, if could get wedged against the blade and cause a kickback or

throwback.

• Never cut more than one workpiece at a time

» Never turn your table saw “ON" before clearing every

thing except the workpiece and related support

devices off the table.

Safety Instructions For Table Saws

Plan Ahead To Protect Your Eyes, Hands, Face

Dress for safety

• Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or jewelry (rings, wrist watches) They can get caught and draw

you into moving parts

• Wear nonslip footwear

• Tie back long hair,

• Roll long sleeves above the elbow

• Noise levels vary widely To avoid possible hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when using fable

saw for hours at a time

• Any power saw can throw foreign objects into the eyes. This can result in permanent eye damage. Wear safety goggles (not glasses) that comply with ANSI Z87 1 (shown on package). Everyday eyeglasses have only impact resistant lenses They are not safety glasses. Safety goggles are available at Sears retail stores Glasses or goggles not In compliance with ANSI Z87-1 could seriously hurt you when they break

For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along with safety goggles

and Ears

Plan the way you will push the workpiece through,

. Never pull the workpiece through. Start and finish

the cut from the front of the table saw.

• Never put your fingers or hands in the path of the

sawblade or other cutting tool.

• Never reach in back of the cutting tool with either

hand to hold down workpiece, support the workpiece, remove wood scraps, or for any other reason

« Avoid hand positions where a sudden slip could cause

fingers or hand to move into a sawblade or other cut ting too!

« Don’t overreach,. Always keep good footing and balance

• Push the workpiece against the rotation of the blade, never feed material into the cutting tool from the rear of the saw,

»Always push the workpiece all the way past the saw-

blade

• As much as possible, keep your face and body to one side of the sawblade, out of line with a possible kick back or throwback

• Set the cutting too! as low as possible for the cut you’re planning

Avoid Accidental Starting.

<• Make sure switch is “OFF" before plugging saw into a

power outlet

Whenever Sawblade is Spinning

WARNING: Don't allow familiarity (gained from fre quent use of your table saw) to cause a careless mistake. Always remember that a careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a severe injury.

• Before actually cutting with the saw, watch it while it runs for a short while If it makes an unfamiliar noise or

vibrates a lot, stop immediatety Turn the saw off. Unplug the saw Do not restart until finding and cor recting the problem ,

• Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool turns

toward the front of the saw

Keep Children Away

• Keep ail visitors a safe distance from the table saw.

• Make sure bystanders are dear of the table saw and workpiece

Don’t Force Tool.

• Let the blade reach full speed before cutting

' It will do the Job better and safer at its designed rate. ' Feed the workpiece into the saw only last enough to let

the blade cut without bogging down or binding

Before freeing jammed material.

• Turn switch “OFF"

• Wait for all moving parts to stop

• Unplug the saw

• Check blade, spreader and fence for proper alignment before starting again

To avoid throwback of cut off pieces,

« Use the guard assembly

To remove loose pieces beneath or trapped Inside the guard.

«Turn saw "OFF",

• Remove switch key « Wait for blade to stop before lifting the guard

Before Leaving The Saw.

• Turn the saw off

• Wait for blade to stop spinning.

• Unplug ths saw

• Make workshop child-proof Lock the shop Disconnect master switches Remove the yellow switch key Store it away from children and others not qualified to use the tool

Additional Safety Instructions

Rip Type Cuts.

» Never use the miter gauge when ripping

• Use a push stick whenever the fence is 2 or more inches from the blade

• When thru-sawing, use an auxiliary fence and push block whenever the fence must be between 1/2 and 2 inches of the blade

» Never Ihru-saw rip cuts narrower than 1/2 inch (See

“Basic Saw Operations-Ripping and Bevel Ripping" sections,)

• Never rip anything shorter than 10” long

• When using a push slick or push block, the trailing end of the board must be square A push stick or block against an uneven end could slip off or push the work

away from the fence

• A Featherboard can help guide the workpiece (see ’'Basic Saw Operation-Using Featherboards for Thru-

Sawing ” section)

• Always use featherboards for any non thru rip type cuts

(See “Basic Saw Operations - Using Featherboards for Non-Thru Sawing” section.

Before Starting,

• To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make sure the rip fence is parallel to the sawbtade

»Before thru-sawing, check the anfi-kickback pawls,

The pawls must stop a kickback once it has started.

Replace or sharpen anti-kickback pawls when points become dull (See "Maintaining Your Table Saw - Anti Kickback Pawls" section)

• 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 careful in your setup and cutting procedures

While Thru-sawing.

«To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, always

push forward on the section of the workpiece between

the sawblade and the rip fence Never push forward on

the piece being cut off

Crosscut Type Cuts.

» Never use the rip fence when crosscutting

• An auxiliary wood facing attached to the miter gauge can help prevent workpiece twisting and throwbacks Attach it to the slots provided Make the facing long enough and big enough to support your work Make sure, however, it will not interfere with the sawblade guard

Before Starting.

♦ Use jigs or fixtures to help hold any piece too small to

extend across the full length of the miter gauge face during the cut. This lets you property hold the miter gauge and workpiece and helps keep your hands away from the blade

While Cutting

»To avoid blade contact, always hold the miter gauge

as shown in "Basic Saw Operations - Using The Miter Gauge

Motor Specifications and Electrical Requirements (continued)

CAUTION: To avoid motor damage, this motor should be blown out or vacuumed frequently to prevent sawdust buildup which will interfere with

normal motor ventilation.

1 Frequent "blowing" of fuses or tripping of circuit break

ers may result if; a Motor is overloaded - Overloading can occur if you

feed too rapidly or if saw is misaligned

b. Motor circuit is fused differently from recommenda

tions - Always follow instructions for the proper fuse/

breaker Do not use a fuse/breaker of greater capacity without consulting a qualified eiectrician

c Low voltage - Although the motor is designed for

operation on the voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate, normal loads will be handled safely on voltage 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.

2 Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incor

rect connections, overloading, reduced input voltage (such as small size wire in the supply circuit) or to overly long supply circuit wire. Always check the con nections, the load and the supply circuit whenever motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire sizes and length with the Wire Size Chart below

Wire Sizes

NOTE; Make sure the proper extension cord is used and

is in good condition The use of any extension cord will cause some loss o1

power. To keep thfs to a minimum and to prevent over heating and motor burn-out, use the table shown 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-prong receptacles which accept the tool’s plug
