RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)
• DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work when practical. It's safer than using your
hand and frees both hands to operate tool.
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condition.
Use only a 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 and overheating. A wire gage size
(A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 25 feet or less in length. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller
the gage number, the heavier the cord.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure
switch is off when plugging in.
m
REMOVE WRENCHES AND ADJUSTING
KEYS. Get in the habit of checking - before
turning on tool - that hex keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from tool.
m
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before using the
tool again, check any damaged parts, including
guards, for proper operation and performance.
Check alignment of moving parts, binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, saw stability,
mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A damaged part must be
properly repaired or replaced by a qualified
service technician at a Sears store or repair
center to avoid risk of personal injury.
USE ONLY CORRECT BLADES. Use the right
blade size, style and cutting speed for the
material and the type of cut. Blade teeth should
point down toward the front of the table.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Using
improper accessories may risk injury.
USE ONLY SEARS REPLACEMENT PARTS.
All repairs, whether electrical or mechanical,
should be made by a qualified service technician
at a Sears store or repair center.
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working
order. This includes the blade guard, riving knife,
and anti-kickback pawls.
CHECK DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into
a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation
of the blade or cutter only.
DISCONNECT ALL TOOLS. When not in use,
before servicing, or when changing attachments,
blades, bits, cutters, etc., all tools should be
disconnected from power supply.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. it will do the job
better and more safely at the rate for which it
was designed.
• NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT-
TENDED. TURN THE POWER OFF. Do not
leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
• BEFORE MOUNTING, DISCONNECTING OR
REMOUNTING THE MOTOR; unplug the saw
and remove the switch key.
WARNING: When servicing, use only identical
A
Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other
parts may create a hazard or cause product
damage.
NEVER USE THIS TOOL IN AN EXPLOSIVE
ATMOSPHERE. Normal sparking of the motor
could ignite fumes,
MAKE SURE THE WORK AREA HAS AMPLE
LIGHTING to see the work and that no obstruc-
tions will interfere with safe operation BEFORE
performing any work using this tool.
DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT
TURN IT ON AND OFF. Have defective switches
replaced by a qualified service technician at a
Sears store or repair center.

RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION (Continued)
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. Kickback can
occur when the blade stalls, driving the work
piece back toward the operator. It can pull your
hand into the blade, resulting in serious personal
injury. Stay out of the blade path and turn switch
off immediately if blade binds or stalls.
• USE A SUPPORT FOR THE SIDES AND BACK
OF THE SAW TABLE when sawing wide or long
workpieces. Use a sturdy "outrigger" support if a
table extension is more than 24 inches long and
is attached to the saw, to prevent tipping.
• CUT ONLY WOOD, PLASTIC OR WOOD-LIKE
MATERIALS. Do not cut metal.
• NEVER cut more than one piece at a time. DO
NOT STACK more than one workpiece on the
saw table at a time.
DO NOT REMOVE THE SAW'S BLADE
GUARDS. Never operate the saw with any guard
or cover removed. Make sure all guards are
operating properly before each use.
NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION FREE-
HAND. Always place the workpiece to be cut on
the saw table and position it firmly against the
fence as a backstop.
• USE THE RIP FENCE. Always use a fence or
straight edge guide when ripping.
• BEFORE MAKING A CUT, be sure all adjust-
ments are secure.
• BE SURE THE BLADE PATH IS FREE OF
NAILS. Inspect for and remove all nails from
lumber before cutting. •
• BE SURE THE BLADE CLEARS THE
WORKPIECE. Never start the saw with the blade
touching the workpiece.
• KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA.
Do not reach underneath work or in blade cutting •
path with your hands and fingers for any reason.
Always turn the power off.
• USE A PUSHBLOCK OR PUSH STICK for _•
workpieces so small that your fingers go under
the blade guard. NEVER TOUCH BLADE or
other moving parts during use, for any reason.
ALLOW THE MOTOR TO COME UP TO FULL
SPEED before starting a cut to avoid blade
binding or stalling.
ALWAYS PUSH THE WORKPIECE; never pull it
toward the saw,
DO NOT FEED THE MATERIAL TOO QUICKLY.
Do not force the workpiece against the blade.
ALWAYS TURN OFF SAW before disconnecting
it, to avoid accidental starting when reconnecting
to power supply. NEVER leave the table saw
unattended while connected to a power source.
BEFORE CHANGING THE SETUP, REMOVING
COVERS, GUARDS, OR BLADE; unplugthe
saw and remove the switch key.
KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM
OIL AND GREASE. Always use a clean cloth
when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, or any solvents to
clean tool.
KEEP BLADES CLEAN, SHARP AND WITH
SUFFICIENT SET. Sharp blades minimize
stalling and kickback.
USE ONLY OUTDOOR EXTENSION CORDS.
Use only extension cords with the marking
"Acceptable for use with outdoor appliances;
store cords indoors while not in use." Use
extension cords with an electrical rating not less
than the saw's rating. Always disconnect the
extension cord from the outlet before disconnect-
ingthe product from the extension cord.
INSPECT TOOL CORDS AND EXTENSION
CORDS PERIODICALLY and, if damaged, have
repaired by a qualified service technician at a
Sears store or repair center. Stay constantly
aware of cord location and keep it well away
from the moving blade.
DO NOT ABUSE CORD. Never yank cord to
disconnect it from receptacle. Keep cord from
heat, oil,and sharp edges.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Refer to them
frequently and use to instruct other users. If you
loan someone this toot, loan them these instruc-
tions also.
_k WARNING: Blade coasts after being turned off.

EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug. When using a power tool at a consid-
erable distance from the power source, use an
extension cord heavy enough to carry the current that
the tool will draw. An undersized extension cord will
cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of
power and causing the motor to overheat. Use the
chart provided below to determine the minimum wire
size required in an extension cord. Only round jack-
eted cords listed by Underwdter's Laboratories (UL)
should be used.
Length of Extension Cord
Up to 25 feet
26-100 feet 12
When working with the tool outdoors, use an exten-
sion cord that is designed for outside use. This is
indicated by the letters WA on the cord's jacket.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
_1, CAUTION: Keep the cord away from the cutting
area and position the cord so that it will not be
caught on lumber, tools, or other objects during
cutting operations.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current
to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is
equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into a matching outlet 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
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is
the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary,
do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to
a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is
properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immedi-
ately.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet like the one shown in Figure 1. It also has a
grounding pin like the one shown.
Your Sears Craftsman Table Saw is powered by a
precision built electric motor. It should be connected
to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only
(normal household current). It should be connected
to a 240 volt power supply only if it has been reset
according to the instrucUons in this manual. The
motor has been set at the factory for 120 volts; if it is
reconnected to operate at 240 volts, all attachment
plugs and any receptacles must be replaced with
devices rated for 240 volts. Do not operate this tool on
direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will
cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If
the saw does not operate when plugged into an
outlet, double check the power supply.
SPEED AND WIRING
The no-load speed of your table saw is approximately
3,600 rpm. This speed is not constant and decreases
under a load or with lower voltage. For voltage, the
wiring in a shop is as important as the motor's horse-
power rating. A line intended only for lights cannot
properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that is heavy
enough for a short distance will be too light for a
greater distance. A line that can support one power
tool may not be able to support two or three tools.
_1_ WARNING: Instructions are given in the
Assembly section for changing the motor voltage
to 240 volts. Follow them carefully ... Electrical
shock can kill.

OVERVIEW
The upper portion of the blade projects up through the
table, surrounded by an insert called the throat plate.
The height of the blade is set with a handwheel on the
front of the cabinet. To accommodate wide panels,
the tabletop has extensions on each side. Detailed
instructions are provided in the Operation section of
this manual for the basic cuts: cross cuts, miter cuts,
bevel cuts, and compound cuts.
BEVEL
LOCKHANDLE
Fig. 5
For cuts with the blade straight up and cutting across
the grain (cross cuts or miter cuts), use the miter gage
to set the angle and push the wood intothe blade. To
cut with the blade straight up, along the grain of the
wood (rip cuts), use the rip fence to guide the wood.
Push smaller pieces with a pushblock or pushstick.
To tilt the blade for a bevel cut, use the bevel
handwheel on the side of the cabinet. A bevel scale
on the front of the cabinet shows the blade angle.

Inside the cabinet, adjustable positive stops control
the degree of tilt.
Use the miter gage with a bevel cross cut (compound
cut) and the rip fence with a bevel rip cut. Other cuts
require special attachments, which have detailed
instructions to reduce risk of injury and ensure the
best performance from your new saw.
Before attempting to use your saw, familiarize yourself
with all operating features and safety requirements of
your Sears Craftsman table saw. The saw's features
are described below.
ALIGN-A-CUT INSERT - A plastic insert on which
marks may be made to indicate the location of the

which the workpiece is thrown back toward the
operator. The toothed pawls are designed to snag the
workpiece to prevent or reduce injury should kickback
Occur.
BEVEL HANDWHEEL - This handwheel, on the right
side of the cabinet, tilts the blade for a bevel cut.
BEVEL SCALE - The easy-to-read scale on the front
of the workstand shows the exact blade angle.
BLADE -This saw is provided with a Craftsman 40
tooth, 10 in. carbide tipped blade. The blade is
adjusted with bevel and height handwheels on the
cabinet. Bevel angles are locked with a handle below
the front rail.
_1, WARNING: Be sure to use only blades rated for
at least 5,000 rpm and recommended for use on
this saw, Check with your nearest Sears retail
store.
BLADE COVER - The internal cover contains sawdust
so it can be directed into the sawdust bag.
BLADE GUARD - Always keep the guard down over
the blade for through-sawing cuts.
BEVEL LOCK HANDLE - This handle, placed just
under the worktable surface on the front of the cabi-
net, locks the angle setting of the blade. Be sure the
handle is hanging straight down before tilting the
blade. If it is not straight down, it may jam and bend
the locking bolt.
DUAL VOLTAGE - Your table saw can be set up to
operate at 120 voltage or at 240. Use extreme caution
when changing the voltage.

and raise the blade for adjustments or replacement. It
is located on the front of the cabinet.
MICRO-INDEX - A rip fence gear and track that
provides precise indexing.
MITER GAGE - This gage aligns the wood for a
crosscut. The easy-to-read indicator shows the exact
angle for a miter cut, with positive stops at 90" and
45".
MITER GAGE GROOVES - The miter gage rides in
these grooves on either side of the blade.
MITER GAGE HOLD-DOWN - A clamp assembly that
fits onto the miter gage to provide additional stability.
MITER GAGE KNOB - Located on the miter gage,
this knob locks in the cutting angle after selection.
MOTOR (13/6,5 AMP) -The powerful induction motor
is 3HP, with capacitor start and V-belt drive, and is
housed in a sturdy steel base.
OVERLOAD PROTECTOR - This device switches off
the saw if it overheats. See the Operation section.
RAILS - Front and rear rails provide support for large
workpieces and the rip fence.
RIP FENCE - A sturdy metal fence guides the
workpiece and is secured with the ripfence handle.
Grooves run along the top and sides of the ripfence
for use with optional clamps and accessories.
RIP FENCE FINE ADJUSTMENT KNOB - The knob
on the front of the np fence makes fine adjustments to
the desired measurement forprecise cutting. Push in
the knob and turn to position the rip fence.
RIP FENCE HANDLE - The handle on the front of the
rip fence releases the rip fence or locks it in place.
RIVING KNIFE OR SPREADER - Located directly
behind the blade, it keeps cut edges from bindingand
supports the blade guard.
SCALE - Found on the front rail, the easy-to-read
scale provides precise measurements in rip cuts.
SWITCH WITH KEY - Your table saw has an easy
access power switch located below the front rail. The
yellow switch key must be removed from the hard-
ware bag and inserted intothe switch before saw can
be operated. To lock the switch in the OFF position,
remove the switch key from the switch. Place the key
in a location that is inaccessible to children and others
not qualified to use the tool.

Assembly is best done in the area where the saw will be used. When you remove the table saw base, loose
parts, and hardware from the packing materials, check all items with the loose parts list and drawing. If you are
unsure about the description of any part, refer to the drawing. If any parts are missing, delay assembling until
you have obtained the missing part(s).
INSTALLING HANDWHEELS ON SAW BASE
See Figure6.
[] Each handwheel bag contains a metal handwheel,
a screw (3/16-24 x 1/2 in.), and a flat washer (3/16
in.),
[] Align the handwheels to the shaft ends that extend
from the front and right side of the table sawbase.
Match the flat spots on the shaft and inside the
handwheel. Insert a screw and a flat washer in the
handwheel center and tighten with a 4 mm hex
key.

Note: If you mount the saw base on a bench instead
of the legs, go to the Assembling Table Exten-
sions procedure. The bench surface must have
an opening for sawdust to fall through, as large
as the opening in the bottom of the saw base. A
height of 36 in. from the top of the saw table to
the floor is recommended.

See Figures7and8.
[] Take the following hardware from the leg stand
hardware bag:
24 carriage bolts (5/16-18 x 3/4 in.)
4 leveling feet
32 flat washers (5/16 in.)
32 hex nuts(5/16-18)
Note: Remaining hardware from this bag is used for
mounting leg stand on the table saw base.
[] Take 4 legs and 8 braces from loose parts.
[] Place a short upper brace inside two of the legs,
with the legs wide end up. (Upper braces have two
large holes in each end.) Make sure the two posts
on the leg align with the small holes on the brace.

ware bag with the following:
8 hex bolts (5/16-18 x 1-1/4 in.
8 hex nuts (5/16-18)
16 flat washers (5/16 in.)
_1, WARNING: The table extensions not only
provide a better cut on the workpiece but help
protect you. Serious injury can result from
workpiece binding or kickback due to twisted
rails or a misaligned ripfence.
• With the saw upside down, align the extensions
with the table with the bevel edges in front. Put a
flat washer on each bolt. Attach the extensions to
the table by inserting the bolts from the direction of
the table.
• Slip the remaining flat washers and hex nuts on the
bolts. Lightly tighten them with a 12 mm wrench.
• Get help to stand the saw assembly upright using
the center saw table. Do not grasp the saw by the
extensions.
_1, WARNING: The extensions are very heavy. Do
not lift the saw table without help. Keep your
knees bent and liftwith your legs, notyour back.
Ignoring these precautions can result in back
injury.
ALIGNING TABLE EXTENSIONS
See Figure 11.
A good alignment allows the railsto slide on easily.
• Stand at the front of the saw and line up the front
edges of the table and extensions.
• To align extensions without damaging the table
saw, put a block of wood at the front of the table
where the extension meets the table, and tap the
block with a hammer. Check and repeat until the
front edges are even.
• Lift each extension slightlyuntil it is higher than the
table (if necessary, place a blockof wood below
and tap upward). Center the block over the edges
and tap it. Recheck the front alignment. If it is
even, tighten the screws with a 12 mm wrench.
