Page 3

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

Make From 3/4“ Thick Solid Wood

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

Safety ¡netructions for Basic Saw Operations

Before Each Use

Inspect your saw.

* To avoid injury from accidentai starting, ttirn the switch

off, unplug the saw, and remove the switch key before raising or removing the guard, changing the cutting tooi, changing the setup, or adjusting anything,

* Check tor alignment of moving parts, binding of mov

ing parts, breakage of parts, saw stability, 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

eiectricai part does not work property, turn the saw off and unpiug the saw.

' Replace damaged or missing parts before using the

saw again

■ Use the sawblade guard, spreader and anti-kickback pawls for any thru-sawing (whenever the blade comes through the top of the workpiece). Make sure the anti kickback pawls work properly Make sure the spreader is in line with sawblade.

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

' Make sure all 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

• Use The Right Tooi. Don't force tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed for

» Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cutoff wheels,

friction wheels (metal cutting blades) wire wheels or

buffing wheels. They can liy 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 blade comes through the workpiece top), always use a 10 inch diameter blade This keeps the spreader in clos est to the blade

- Do not overtighten 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

• Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents, Floor must 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 while bfade is spinning It could cut or throw anything hitting the blade

Plan your work

» Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face, ears

Pieces (Kickbacks Or Throwbacks)

» Use the right tool Don’t force tool or attachment to do

a job it was not designed for

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 tong hair.

• Roll long sleeves above the elbow

• Noise levels vary widely, To avoid possible hearing

damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when using table saw tor 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 giasses) 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

Inspect your workpiece.

« Make sure there are no naiis or foreign objects in the

part of the workpiece to be cut

« When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your

work so it will not slip and pinch the blade:

• A piece of molding for example, must lie fiat or be held

by a fixture of jig that will not 1st it twist, rock or slip while being cut Use jigs or fixtures where needed to prevent workpiece shifting

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

Page 25

Plan your cut,

» To avoid kickbacks and throwbacks which occur when

a part or a!l of the workpiece binds on the blade and is thrown violently back toward the front of the saw:

- Never cut Freehand. 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 kickback,

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

* Use extra caution with iarge, 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 additionai sup port for a workpiece that is longer or wider than the basic saw table, or to help feed, support or pul! the workpiece.

* Never confine the piece being cut off, that Is, the piece

not against the fence, miter gauge or fixture Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or use length slops against it It must be free to move, if confined, it could get wedged against the blade and cause a kickback or throwback.

• Never cut more than one workpiece at a time » Never turn your tabis saw “ON” before clearing every

thing except the workpiece and related support devices off the table.

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

• Avoid hand positions where a sudden slip could cause fingers or a hand to move into a sawblade or other cut

ting tool

• Don’t overreach Always keep good footing and balance

• Push the workpiece against the rotation of the blade, never leed 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 tooi 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 Sawbíade Is Spinning

WARNING: Don’t allow familiarity (gained from fre quent use of your table saw) cause a careless mis take. 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 white. If It makes an unfamiliar noise or

vibrates a lot, stop immediately Turn the saw off.

Unplug the saw. Do not restart until finding and cor recting the problem

♦ Make sure the lop 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 win do the job better and safer at its designed rate » Feed the workpiece into the saw only fast 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 the 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 too!

Work Feed Devices---------------

Before cutting any wood on your saw, study all of the “Basic Saw Operations” As you learn new table saw woodworking techniques, you'll see that many types of cuts need different support and feeding devices, known as jigs or fixtures. They can help you make cuts more accurately By helping to steady the workpiece and keep you away from the blade, they can help you safely use your saw for certain cuts

Push Stick

Make the push stick using a piece of 1 x 2 x 3/4 thick soiid wood.

Slightly Less Than Thickness Of Workpiece Up To 3/8”

1-S/B"

Many people custom build their own jigs and fixtures Jigs and fixtures are often designed for a particular cut

You can use your table saw to easily make many jigs and fixtures To get you started, we've included Instructions for some simple ones After you have made a tew prac tice cuts, make up these jigs before starting any projects. The use of these devices is explained in "Basic Saw Operations" section.

Push Block

Xhere are any number of ways to properly cut your work pieces to make a push block. The following steps describe one way you can make a push block.

Making the base:

* Start with a piece of 3/8 inch plywood at least 5-5/8

inches wide or wider and 12 inches long or longer

® Make two ripcuts Perform the first ripcut along the

side of the 3/8" wide strip Next, ripcut the 3/8“ plywood to a width of 5-1/8".

• Crosscut the 3/8“ plywood to 12" long. ♦ Crosscut a 2-1/2" piece off the 3/8" wide by 3/8" thick

strip and save this short piece for later,

»The next cuts wilt create the 3/8" by 9-1/2“ notch in the

base Mark the long edge of the board 2-1/2" from one

end Make a crosscut into the edge on the mark, stop ping about 3/4“ into the board Set the saw and rip the width to 4-3/4" along the same edge as the stopped crosscut. Stop the ripcut where the two cuts intersect. Turn off the saw and remove the ba^ piece. The base should now measure as shown

Using the Miter Gauge

The miter gauge is used when crosscutting, miter cutting, bevel cutting, compound miter cutting, dadoing and when

rabbeting across the end of a narrow workpiece

WARNING; For your own safety, always observe the following safety precautions in addition to the safety instructions of pages 2, 3, 4, 5,24 & 25,

Additional Safety Instructions for Crosscutting

Before Starting:

" Never use the rip fence when crosscutting except as

specificaiiy instructed.

Crosscutting

Definition; A cutting or shaping operation made across the width of a workpiece. The graduations on the miter gauge provide ample accu

racy for average woodworking in some cases where extreme accuracy is required, make a trial cut and then recheck it with a precision square, or protractor,

NOTE: The space between the miter gauge bar and the groove in the table is held to a minimum during manufac

turing. For maximum accuracy when using the miter gauge, always favor one side of the groove in the table In other words, don't move the miter gauge from side to side while cutting but keep one side of the bar riding against one side of the groove.

NOTE: Qiuing a piece ot sandpaper to the face of the miter gauge head can help prevent the workpiece from “creeping” while it is being cut

The miter gauge head is Socked in position by twisting the lock knob clockwise Always tighten it securely when in

use.

WARNING: To avoid blade contact or kickback,

hold miter gauge properly^

_________

___

® 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,

* Use jigs or fixtures to help hold any piece too smaii to

extend across the full length of the miter gauge face during the cut. This lets you properly 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 the this section

Sandpaper

The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves in the table

When using the miter gauge in the left hand groove, hold the workpiece firmly against miter gauge head with your

left hand, and grip the iock knob with your right hand When using the miter gauge in the right hand groove,

hold the workpiece with your right hand and the iock knob with your left hand

Page 29

Crosscutting (continued)

Slots are provided in the miter gauge lor attaching an auxiliary facing to make it easier to cut very long or short pieces. Select a suitable piece of smooth wood, drill two holes through it and attach with screws. Make sure the facing does not interfere with the proper operation of the sawblade guard

When cutting long workpieces, you can make a simple support by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse (As seen on previous page.)

Use the hold-down clamp (optional accessory) on the miter gauge tor greater accuracy.

Repetitive Crosscutting

Definition: Gutting a quantity of pieces the same length without having to mark each piece

A Use the stop rods (optional accessory shown) only

for cutting duplicate pieces 6 inches long and longer.

B Follow all safety precautions and operational

instructions for cross culling

When making repetitive cuts from a long workpiece,

make sure it is adequately supported

WARNING: Never use the rip fence as a direct length stop because the cutoff piece could bind between the fence and the blade causing a kick

back.____________

C When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 inches,

clamp a block of wood 3’’ long to the table at desired length to act as a length stop. Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip properly Place a small block of wood between the bottom edge of the table

and the "C" clamp.

WARNING: To avoid kickback from twisting the workpiece, when clamping the block make sure that the end of the block is well in front of the saw-

blade. Be sure it is clamped securely.

Basic Saw Operations (continued)

Miter Crosscutting

Definition: Cutting wood at an angle other than 90” with

the edge of the wood. Follow the same procedure as you

would for crosscutting

A Adjust the miter gauge to the desired angie, and

lock it

B The miter gauge may be used in either of the

grooves in the table Make sure it is locked

C When using the miter gauge in the left hand groove,

hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head with your left hand> and grip the lock knob with your right hand

□ When using the miter gauge in the right hand

groove, hold the workpiece with your right hand and

the lock knob with your left hand

Bevel Crosscutting

Bevel crosscutting is the same as crosscutting except that the wood is cut at an angle „other than 90° with the bottom flat side of the wood,

• Adjust the blade to the desired angie. ' Always use the miter gauge in the groove to the right

of the blade It cannot be used in the groove to the left because the blade guard will interfere. Hold the work piece with your right hand and the lock knob with your left hand

* Use the auxiliary fence/work support for additional

support of the workpiece

Compound Crosscutting

Compound cutting is a combination of miter cutting and bevel crosscutting. The cut is mads at an angle other

than 90“ to both the edge and the bottom flat side of the

wood,

♦ Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired

angle ..Make sure miter gauge is locked

Page 31

Using the Rip Fence

Ripping, beve! ripping, resawing and rabbeting are psrtormed using the rip fence together with the auxiliary tence/work support, push stick or push block

WARNING: For your own safety, read and always observe all safety precautions listed in manual and on saw.

Additional Safety Instructions for Rip 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

biock whenever the fence must be between 1/2 and 2 inches from the blade

» Never thru-saw rip cuts narrower than 1/2 inch

• Never rip anything shorter than 10” long, * When using a push stick or push block, the trailing end

of the workpiece must be square A push sfick or block against an uneven end could slip off or push the work piece away from the fence

• A teatherboard can help guide the wotlipiece. (See 'Basic Saw Operation-Using Featherboards for ThruSawing" section,.)

«Always use featherboards for any non thru-sawing rip

type cuts. (See “Basic Saw Operations-Using Feather boards for Non Thru-sawing" section)

Before Starting:

»To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make sure

the rip fence is parallel to the sawbiade

• Before thru-sawing, check the anti-kickback pawls, the

pawls must stop a kickback once it has started..

Replace or sharpen anti-kickback pawls when points

become duii.

• 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 sawbiade and Ihe rip fence. Never push forward on the piece being cut off

Ripping

Definition: Cutting operation along the length of the work piece,

Position the fence to the desired width of rip and lock in

jinV .T'T ,

Before starting to rip, be sure: 1 Rip fence is parallel to sawbiade 2 Spreader is properly aligned with sawbiade.

3. Anli-kickbaok pawls are functioning properly. When ripping long boards or large panels, always use a

work support A simple support can be made by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse

WARNING; To avoid kickback, push forward only on the part of the workpiece that will pass between the blade and the fence,__________________

Keep your hands out of the blade path Feed the workpiece by pushing forward only on the part

of the workpiece that wifi pass between the blade and the fence.

Stop your left thumb at the front edge of the table Finish the cut with the appropriate pusher

Always Support Long

Basic Saw Operations (continued)

flipping (continued)

Once the traiiing end is on the table:

When “width ol rip" is 2" or wider, use the push stick to finish pushing the work all the way past the blade

When “width of rip" is narrower than 2" the push stick cannot be used because the guard will interfere, use the auxiliary fence and push block.

Attach auxiliary fence to rip fence with two “C” clamps

Feed the workpiece by hand along the auxiliary fence until the end is approximately 1" past the front edge of the table Continue to feed using the push block.

Hold the workpiece in position and install the push block by sliding it on top of the auxiliary fence (this may raise

guard)

WARNING: To avoid injury from blade contact never thru-saw cuts narrower than 1/2” wide.

Narrow strips thicker than the auxiliary {snce/work sup port may eritsr the guard and strike the baffle Carefully raise guard only enough to clear the workpiece Use push block to complete cut

Bevel Ripping Narrow Work

When bevel ripping material 6” or narrower, Use fence on the right side of the blade only. This will provide more space between the fence and the sawbiade for use of a push stick. If the fence is mounted to the left, the sawblade guard may interfere with proper use of a push stick

LJCiOirVO.,-

Add a 7-1/2” high fat facing board to the fence, the full length of the fence.

Mount featherboards to facing board and table as shown, so that leading edges of featherboards will support work piece

WARNING: Make sure the featherboard against the

edge presses only on the uncut portion |in front of the blade). It might otherwise pinch the blade in the kerf and cause a kickback.

Before starting the operation (switch “OFF" and blade below table surface);

1 Install featherboards so they exert pressure on the

workpiece; be positive they are securely attached

2. Make sure by trial that the featherboards wiil stop a kickback if one should occur

Basic Saw Operations (continued)

Using Featherboards for Non Thru-Sawing

FGatherboards are not employed during non thru-sawing operations when using the miter gauge

Use featherboards for all other non thru-sawing opera tions (when sawbiade guard must be removed) Feather boards are used to keep the work in contact with the fence and table as shown and to stop kickbacks.

Add a 7-1/2" high flat facing board to the fence, the full

length of the fence yount featherboards to facing board and table as shown, so that leading edges of featherboards will support work piece until cut is complete, and the workpiece has been pushed completely past the cutter (sawblads, dadohead, etc,,) With a push stick, as in ripping Before starting the operation (switch "OFF" and blade below table surface):

1 Install featherboards so they exert pressure on the

workpiece: be positive they are secure,

2, Make sure by trial the featherboards Will stop a kick

back if one should occur

WARNING: For your own safety, replace the saw-

blade guard as soon as the notr thru-sawing opera

tion is complete.

Resawing

Resawing is a rip cut made in a piece of wood through its thickness The piece is typically positioned on its edge If the piece is narrower than 2-1/2" It can be resawn in one

pass with the blade guard in place Extra supports or fix tures will be required when the edge resting on the table

is too narrow for the piece to be stable and when the

fence interferes with the blade guard (See method

described below)

WARNING: Do not attempt to resaw bowed or

warped material. It can’t be properly supported. It

could kickback or bind.

NOTE; To resaw a piece of Wood wider than 2-1/2", or a piece needing extra support, it wiil be necessary to remove the blade guard and use the auxiliary fence (See "Workfeed Devices",)

Clamp the auxiliary fence to the table so that the work piece will slide easily without binding between the two

fences and it will not tilt or move sideways

Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table because the “swivel” of the clamp will not grip properly Place a small block of wood between the bottom edge of the table and the “C" clamp

Dadoing

instructions for operating the dado head are contained in bookiet furnished with the dado head The arbor on the saw, is only long enough so that the widest cut that can be made is 9/16” wide

It is not necessary to install the outside loose collar betöre screwing on the arbor nut Make sure the arbor

nut is tight

WARNING: For your own safety, always use dado insert listed under recommended accessories.

When using the dado head, it wiil be necessary to

remove the blade guard and spreader- Use caution. Use

miter gauge, fence, featherboards or push sticks as

required

WARNING: For your own safety, always replace the blade, table insert, guard and spreader when you are finished dadoing.

____________________

Rabbeting

Definition: Cutting out a section of the corner of a piece of material, across an end or along an edge

To make a rabbet requires cuts which do not go a!! the

way through the material Therefore, the blade guard must be removed.

1. Remove biade guard. 2 For rabbeting along an edge (long way of workpiece)

as shown add facing to rip fence approximately as high as the workpiece is wide Adjust rip fence and blade to required dimensions; then make first cut with board flat on table as any rip (type) cut; make second cut with workpiece on edge Follow all precautions, safety instructions, and operational instructions as for ripping, or rip type operations, including featherboards and push stick, etc

3. For rabbeting across an end, for workpiece 10-1/2" and narrower, make the rabbet cut with the board flat on the table Using the miter gauge fitted with a facing, follow the same procedures and instructions for cross

cutting making successive cuts across the width of the workpiece to obtain the desired width of cut, Do not use the rip fence for rabbeting across the end-

WARNING: For your own safety, install blade guard immediately upon completion of rabbeting operation.

Some rabbet cuts can also be made in one pass of the

workpiece over the cutter using a dado head.

Ploughing and Molding

Ploughing is grooving with the grain the long way of the workpiece, using the fence Use featherboards and push sticks as required

Molding is shaping the workpieca with the grain the long way of the workpiece, using the fence. Use featherboards and push sticks as required

Molding Cutting

instructions for operating the molding head are contained in a booklet furnished with the rnotding head.

Always use the molding insert listed under recom mended accessories.

When using the molding head it will be necessary to remove the blade guard and spreader Use caution Use miter gauge, fence, featherboards, or push sticks, etc,, as required,

WARNING: For your own safety, always replace the blade guard and spreader when you finished plough

ing or molding.

Adjustments

WARNING: For your own safety, turn switch “OFF” and remove plug from power source outlet before making any adjustments.

Miter Gauge

NOTE: The graduations are manulactured to very close

tolerances which provide ampis accuracy for fine wood

working in some cases where extreme accuracy is required, when making angle cuts, for example, make a trial cut and then recheck it

The head should be square (90°) with the bar when the pointer points to “O” To check for squareness, place an accurate square on the miter gauge If the head is not square with the bar:

1 Loosen the lock knob

2. Position the head square with the bar. Tighten the lock knob

3 Loosen the screw and adjust the pointer, so it points to

zero.

The swiveling movement ot the head can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the set screw located inside of the head using a 1/8" hex “L" wrench

Page 37

Rip Fence

The fence should slide easily along the guide bars and always remain in alignment {parallel to sawblads 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

Self Aligning Spring Adjustment

Checking the Fence Spring

1 Place fence on saw but do not lock it 2, Move the rear end of the fence slightly to the right or

Heeling Adjustment or Parallelism of Sawblade to Miter Gauge Groove

While cutting, the materia! must move in a straight line parallel to the sawblade. Therefore, both the miter gauge groove and the rip fence must be parallel to the sawblade.

WARNING: The bfade must be parallel to the miter

gauge groove. Misaligned blades could bind on workpiece. Workpiece could suddenly kickback. You could be cut or hit.

If the sawblade is not paralfe! to the miter gauge groove, the blade will bind at one end of the cut This is known as "Heeling")-

WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental start, make sure switch Is “OFF” and plug is not con

nected to power source outlet.

To check for parallelism:

1, Raise blade all the way up, raise blade guard 2 Mark an “X" on one of the teeth of the sawblade which

is naturally bent to the left.

3, Place the head of a combinatiors square in the left

miter gauge groove Adjust ruler blade of square so that it just touches the tip of the marked tooth. Remem ber to keep the head of the square flush against the miter gauge groove

4, Rotate the sawblade so that the “X" on the tooth is now

visible at the rear of the saw

5 Move combination square to the rear of the saw, The

r>f ihp «iniirirA tnurh thf? rrii=3rkpd

tooth the same as it did at the front of the sawblade,

6 If sawbiade is not parallel with the miter gauge groove,

you must adjust the position of the sawbiade.

To Adjust For Blade Heel:

1 Use a 3/16" hex "L" wrench to loosen the four adjust

ment locking screws about 1/2 turn

2, Loosen two pan head screws on the rear skirt of the

table about 1/2 turn.

3 The mechanism under the table can now be moved

Sideways from above by covering the sawbiade with a

piece of cardboard and shifting the blade to the right or left as required,

4 After shitting the sawblade mechanism slightly,

rechsck the position of the marked tooth of the sawblade at both front and rear.

5 The tooth marked on the sawblade should be parallel

to the miter gauge groove after adjustment is made

6 Tighten all screws carefully so as not to move saw-

blade out of alignment

7, Recheck parallelism of marked sawblade tooth to the

miter gauge groove Repeat the steps for heeling adjustment if necessary

and should be blown out or “Vacuumed" frequenfiy to prevent interference with normal motor ventilation

Trouble Probable Cause

Excessive Noise

Motor fails to develop

full power NOTE: Low

Voltage; (Power output of motor decreases rapidly with decrease in voltage at motor terminals For

rpdnrtinn of 10% in voltage causes a reduction of 19% in maximum power output of which the motor is capable, and a reduc tion of 20% in voltage causes a reduction of 36% in maximum power

output)

Motor starts slowly or fails to come up to full speed

1, Motor

1- Circuit overloaded with lights,

appliances and other motors

2 Undersize wires or circuit too

long

3 General overloading of power

company facilities, (In some sections of the country, demand for electrical power may exceed the capacity of existing generating and distribu
