TABLE SAW SAFETY
1. ALWAYS USE SAW BLADE GUARD, splitter
and anti-kickback pawls for every through-sawing
operation. Through-sawing operations are those
in which the blade cuts completely through the
workpiece when ripping or crosscutting. Always be
sure blade guard is tightened securely.
2. ALWAYS HOLD WORK FIRMLY against the miter
gauge or rip fence.
3. ALWAYS USE a push stick, especially when ripping
narrow stock. Refer to ripping instructions in this
Operator’s Manual where the push stick is covered
in detail. A pattern for making your own push stick is
included on page 28.
4. NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION
FREEHAND, which means using only your hands
to support or guide the workpiece. Always use
either the fence or the miter gauge to position
and guide the work.
A DANGER
FREEHAND CUTTING IS THE MAJOR CAUSE OF
KICKBACK AND FINGER/HAND AMPUTATIONS.
NEVER USE THE MITER GAUGE AND FENCE
SIMULTANEOUSLY.
12. PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to the rear
and the sides of the saw table for long or wide
workpieces.
13. AVOID KICKBACKS (work thrown back towards
you) by keeping the blade sharp, the rip fence
parallel to the saw blade and by keeping the splitter,
anti-kickback pawls and guards in place, aligned
and functioning. Do not release work before passing
it completely beyond the saw blade. Do not rip work
that is twisted, warped or does not have a straight
edge to guide it along the fence. Do not attempt to
reverse out of a cut with the blade running.
14. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS and hand
positions where a sudden slip could cause your
hand to move into the saw blade.
15. NEVER USE SOLVENTS to clean plastic parts.
Solvents could possibly dissolve or otherwise
damage the material. Only a soft damp cloth should
be used to clean plastic parts.
16. MOUNT your table saw on a bench or stand
before performing any cutting operations. Refer to
ASSEMBLY on page 10.
5. NEVER STAND or have any part of your body in
line with the path of the saw blade. Keep your hands
out of the saw blade path.
6. NEVER REACH behind or over the cutting tool for
any reason.
7. REMOVE the rip fence when crosscutting.
8. DO NOT USE a molding head with this saw.
9. FEED WORK INTO THE BLADE against the
direction of rotation only.
10. NEVER use the rip fence as a cut-off gauge when
crosscutting.
11. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAW
BLADE without first turning the saw OFF. Turn
power switch OFF immediately to prevent motor
damage.
17. NEVER CUT METALS or materials that may make
hazardous dust.
18. ALWAYS USE IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA.
Remove sawdust frequently. Clean out sawdust
from the interior of the saw to prevent a potential fire
hazard.
19. NEVER LEAVE THE SAW RUNNING
UNATTENDED. Do not leave the saw until the
blade comes to a complete stop.
20. FOR PROPER OPERATION follow the instructions
in this Operator’s Manual entitled OPERATION
(Page 17).
NOTE: On machines with no stand or if stand is not
being used, a hole approximately 11 in. square must
be cut under saw to allow sawdust to fall through.
Failure to cut this hole will allow sawdust to build
up in the motor area, resulting in a fire hazard and
potential motor damage.

ELEGTRJCAL REQUiREMENTS AND SAF
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR
BREAKDOWN, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric currents and reduces the risk of
electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electrical
cord that has an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into a matching receptacle that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not
fit the receptacle, have the proper receptacle installed
by a qualified electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with the green insulation (with or without
yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor.
If repair or replacement of the electrical cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the equipment grounding
conductor to a live terminal.
CHECK with a qualified electrician or service person
if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not certain the tool is properly
grounded.
or a #14 wire with a 15 A time-lag fuse. NOTE: When
using an extension cord on a circuit with a #14 wire, the
extension cord must not exceed 25 feet in length. Before
connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the
switch is in the off position and the electric current is
rated the same as the current stamped on the motor
nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the
motor. This tool is Intended for use on a circuit that has
a receptacle like the one illustrated in Fig. 1.
Fig. 1 shows a three-pronged electrical plug and
receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a properly
grounded receptacle is not available, an adapter (Fig. 2)
can be used to temporarily connect this plug to a twocontact grounded receptacle. The adapter (Fig. 2) has a
rigid lug extending from it that MUST be connected to a
permanent earth ground, such as a properly grounded
receptacle box.
CAUTION
In all cases, make certain the receptacle is properly
grounded. If you are not sure, have a qualified
electrician check the receptacle.
CAUTION
This tool is for indoor use only. Do not expose to
rain or use in damp locations.
USE only three-wire extension cords that have three
pronged grounding plugs with three-pole receptacles
that accept the tool’s plug. Repair or replace damaged
or worn cords immediately.
GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition. Use an
extension cord heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power,
overheating and burning out of the motor. The table on
the right shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in
good condition. Always replace a damaged extension
cord or have it repaired by a qualified technician before
using it. Protect your extension cords from sharp
objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tool. This circuit
must not be less than #12 wire with a 20 A time-lag fuse
CAUTION
This tool must be grounded while in use to protect
the operator from electric shock.

USING THE DUST CHUTE (FIG. Y)
A WARNING
To prevent fire hazard, clean and remove sawdust
from under the saw frequently.
the fence and must not be warped, twisted, or
bowed,
• Do not allow familiarity or frequent use of your
table saw to cause careless mistakes. Remember
that even a careless fraction of a second is
enough to cause a severe injury.
To prevent sawdust buildup inside the saw housing,
attach a vacuum hose (1) to the dust chute (2) at the
rear of the table saw. Do not operate the saw with
the hose in place unless the vacuum is turned on.
Fig. Y
CUTTING OPERATIONS
There are two basic types of cuts: ripping and
crosscutting. Ripping is cutting along the length and the
grain of the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting either
across the width or across the grain of the workpiece.
Neither ripping nor crosscutting may be done safely
freehand. Ripping requires the use of the rip fence, and
crosscutting requires the miter gauge. NEVER USE
THE TWO AT THE SAME TIME.
1. Remove the miter gauge. Secure the rip fence to the
table at the desired rip measurement.
2. Raise the blade so it is about 1/8 in. higher than the
top of the workpiece.
3. Place the workpiece flat on the table and against
the fence so the larger portion of the workpiece
is between the blade and the fence. Keep the
workpiece about 1 in. away from the blade.
4. Turn the saw ON and wait for the blade to come up
to speed.
5. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade. To feed
workpiece into blade, only push against the back of
the workpiece on the part (1) that will pass between
the blade and the fence. Use a push stick at all times.
A WARNING
AVOID KICKBACK To avoid kickback, only push
against the back of the workpiece on the part (1)
that will pass between the blade and fence. Use a
push stick at ali times.
A WARNING
Before using the saw each and every time, check
the following:
1. Blade is tight on the arbor.
2. Bevel angle lock knob is tight.
3. If ripping, fence knob is tight and fence is parallel
to the miter gauge grooves.
4. Blade guard is in place and working properly.
5. Safety glasses are being worn.
The failure to adhere to these common safety rules,
and other printed within this manual, can
greatly increase the likelihood of injury.
RIPPING (FIG. AA, BB)
A WARNING
To prevent serious injury:
• Never use the miter gauge when ripping.
• Never use more than one rip fence during a
single cut.
• Keep both hands away from the blade and path
of the blade.
• The workpiece must have a straight edge against
6. Keep your thumbs off the table top. When your hand
reaches the front edge of the table (2), finish the cut
with a push stick (3) (Fig. BB). You can make a push
stick using the pattern on page 28.
7. The push stick (3) should always be used for any
ripping operations. (Fig. BB)
8. Continue pushing the workpiece with the push
stick (3) until it passes the blade guard and clears the
rear of the table.
18
Page 19
A WARNING
Never attempt to pull the workpiece backwards
during a cutting operation. This will cause
kickback and serious injury to the user can
occur. When the blade completely stops raise the
anti-kickback pawls (4) on each side of the splitter
and slide the workpiece out.
Fig. BB
BEVEL RIPPING
This cut is the same as a rip cut except the blade bevel
angle is set to an angle other than “0”.
• Never attempt to pull the workpiece backwards
during a cutting operation. This will cause
kickback and serious injury to the user can
occur.
1. Remove the rip fence and place the miter gauge a
miter gauge groove on the table.
2. Adjust the blade height so it is 1/8 in. higher than the
top of the workpiece.
3. Hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge
with the blade path in line with the desired cut
location. Move the workpiece to one inch distance
from the blade.
4. Start the saw and wait for the blade (1) to come up
to full speed. Never stand directly in line of the saw
blade path, but always stand to the side of the blade
that you are cutting on.
5. Keep the workpiece (2) against the face of the miter
gauge (3) and flat against the table. Then slowly
push the workpiece through the blade.
6. Do not try to pull the workpiece back with the blade
turning. Turn the switch OFF, and carefully slide the
workpiece out when the blade is completely stopped.
A WARNING
Cut only with the workpiece and the fence on the
right side of the blade.
RIPPING SMALL PIECES
A WARNING
Avoid injury from the blade contact. Never make
through-saw cuts narrower than 3/4 in. wide.
1. It is unsafe to rip small pieces. Instead, rip a larger
piece to obtain the size of the desired piece.
2. When a small width is to be ripped, your hand cannot
be safely put between the blade and the rip fence,
therefore, use one or more push sticks to pass the
workpiece completely through and past the blade.
CROSSCUTTING 90° MITER ANGLE (FIG. CC)
A WARNING
To prevent serious injury:
® Do not allow familiarity or frequent use of your
table saw to cause careless mistakes. Remember
that even a careless fraction of a second Is
enough to cause a severe injury.
® Keep both hands away from the blade and the
path of the blade.
A WARNING
Always position the larger surface of the workpiece
on the table when crosscutting and/or bevel
crosscutting to avoid instability.
Fig. CC
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING (FIG. DD)
0“~45° BLADE BEVEL & 90° MITER ANGLE
This cutting operation is the same as crosscutting
except the blade is at a bevel angle other than 0°.
A WARNING
Always work to the right side of the blade during
this type of cut. The miter gauge must be in the right
side groove because the bevel angle may cause the
blade guard to interfere with the cut if used on the
left side groove.
