TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES

Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.

• SEE GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY SECTION OF THIS MANUAL. Read entire instruction manual before

operating saw. Learning the saw's proper applications, limitations, and specific potential hazards will greatly minimize the possibility of accidents and injury. Make sure all users are familiar with its warnings and instructions before using saw.

• SEE POWER CONNECTION SECTION OF THIS MANUAL for instructions and warnings regarding power cords and connections.

TERMINOLOGY

The following terms will be used throughout the manual and you should become familiar with them.

– Through-cut refers to any cut that completely cuts

through the workpiece.

– Non-through cut refers to any cut that does not

completely cut through the workpiece.

_ Push stick refers to a wooden or plastic stick, usually

homemade, that is used to push a small workpiece through the saw and keeps the operator’s hands clear of the blade.

– Kickback occurs when the saw blade binds in the cut

or between the blade and the fence and thrusts the workpiece back toward the operator.

Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.

1. NEVER Perform freehand cutting, plunge cutting,

resawing, or cove cutting.

2. WEAR EYE PROTECTION, appropriate apparel, hearing protection and dust protection as specified in the General Power Tool Safety Section of this manual.

3. USE SAW BLADE GUARD, RIVING KNIFE AND ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS. Your saw is equipped

with a modular blade guard, riving knife and anti-kickback pawl assembly, each component of which should be used for every possible operation, including all through cuts. This assembly is discussed in more detail below. Make sure components are securely installed prior to operation.

4. KEEP HANDS AND OTHER BODY PARTS OUT OF THE BLADE PATH. NEVER have any part of your

body in line with the path of the saw blade.

5. USE A PUSH STICK that is appropriate to the application to push and hold down a workpiece through the completion of the cut. A push stick is a wooden or plastic stick, usually homemade, that should be used whenever the size or shape of the workpiece would cause you to place your hands within 6 in. (152 mm) of the blade. Instructions for making a push stick are included in this manual.

6. AVOID KICKBACK. Pay particular attention to instructions (below) for reducing risk of kickback.

7. NO FREEHAND CUTS. Always use a rip fence, miter gauge, or other appropriate devices to guide or hold down the workpiece. Use hold-downs, jigs, fixtures or feather boards to help guide and control

– Freehand refers to cutting without the use of a miter

gauge or rip fence or any other means of guiding or holding the workpiece other than the operator’s hand.

– Plunge cutting refers to blind cuts in the workpiece

made by either raising the blade through the workpiece or lowering the workpiece down to the blade.

– Re-sawing – Flipping material to make a cut the saw is

not capable of making in one pass.

– Cove cutting – Also known as coving, cove cutting is an

operation where the work is fed at an angle across the blade.

the workpiece. Accessories for use with your saw are available at extra cost from your local dealer or authorized service center.

8. DO NOT USE RIP FENCE AND MITER GAUGE AT THE SAME TIME.

9. DO NOT REACH OVER/REACH AROUND. Never

reach over, in back of, or around the cutting tool with either hand while the blade is in motion.

10. STABILITY. Make sure table saw is properly assembled and located on a stable surface before use to keep saw from moving during cut.

11. PROPER ASSEMBLY. Do not operate this saw until it is completely assembled and installed according to the instructions.

12. CHECK WORKPIECE AND SET-UP before each operation. Knots, irregularities, or nails in workpiece and positioning mistakes or incomplete set-up may interfere with or affect saw performance and personal safety.

13. USE PROPER THROAT PLATE. The proper throat plate must be in place and properly secured at all times to reduce the risk of a thrown workpiece and possible injury.

14. USE CORRECT BLADE AND RIVING KNIFE for the intended operation. The blade must be installed so the points of the teeth are pointing toward the front of the saw. Do not use oversized blade or blade with incorrect arbor opening. Always tighten the blade arbor nut securely. Before use, inspect the blade for cracks or missing teeth. Do not use a damaged or dull blade. Always use blade within the thickness range for which the riving knife is designed.

TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES (continued)

15. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND

POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause a

hand to move into a saw blade. Operate with table at or near waist level for maximum balance and control. Anticipate effect of workpiece size on your ability to adjust position and maintain control through completion of cut.

16. KEEP ARMS, HANDS AND FINGERS AT LEAST SIX INCHES AWAY FROM THE BLADE.

17. NEVER CUT METALS, CEMENT BOARD OR MASONRY. Certain man-made materials have

special instructions for cutting on table saws. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations at all times.

18. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED BLADE OR TRAPPED WORKPIECE without first turning

the machine off and disconnecting the saw from the power source.

19. NEVER START THE MACHINE WITH THE WORKPIECE AGAINST THE BLADE to reduce the

risk of a thrown workpiece.

20. NEVER PERFORM LAYOUT, ASSEMBLY OR SETUP WORK ON THE TABLE/WORK AREA when the

saw is running.

21. BEFORE LEAVING THE SAW , wait for the blade to come to a complete stop, then disconnect from the power source, clean the table and work area, and lock out switch to prevent unauthorized use.

22. SUPPORT YOUR WORKPIECE based on its size and the type of operation to be performed. Hold the work firmly against the fence and down against the table surface. Do not leave a wide panel or long board (or other large workpiece) unsupported – the weight of the board may causes it to shift on the table resulting in loss of control.

23. AN UNFAMILIAR NOISE OR EXCESSIVE VIBRATION may indicate a problem with your

saw. If this happens, turn it off and disconnect it from the power source until the problem has been located and corrected. Contact customer service for assistance if the problem cannot be solved.

24. OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or another qualified person if you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation of this machine. Knowledge is safety.

SAW BLADE GUARD, ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS AND RIVING KNIFE ASSEMBLY

Your table saw is equipped with a blade guard, antikickback pawls and riving knife assembly that covers the blade and reduces the possibility of accidental blade contact. The riving knife is a flat plate that fits into the cut made by the saw blade and effectively fights kickback by lessening the tendency of the blade to bind in the cut. Two anti-kickback pawls are located on the sides of the riving knife that allow the wood to pass through the blade in the cutting direction but reduce the possibility of the material being thrown backwards toward the operator. The blade guard and anti-kickback pawls can only be used when making through cuts that sever the wood. When making rabbets and other non-through cuts, the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls must be removed and riving

knife lowered to the non-through cut position marked on the riving knife.

Use all components of the guarding system (blade guard assembly, riving knife and anti-kickback pawls) for every operation for which they can be used including all through-cutting. If you elect not to use any of these components for a particular application, exercise additional caution regarding control of the workpiece, the use of push sticks, the position of your hands relative to the blade, the use of safety glasses, the means to avoid kickback and all other warnings contained in this manual and on the saw itself. Replace the guarding systems as soon as you return to through-cutting operations. Keep the guard assembly in working order.

MAKING A PUSH STICK

In order to operate your table saw safely, you must use a push stick whenever the size or shape of the workpiece would otherwise cause your hands to be within 6 inches (152 mm) of the saw blade or other cutter. A push stick is included with this saw.

No special wood is needed to make additional push sticks as long as they are sturdy and long enough and the wood is free of knots, checks and cracks. A length of 16 inches (400 mm) is recommended with a notch that fits against the edge of the workpiece to prevent slipping. It’s a good idea to have several push

sticks of the same minimum length, 16 inches (400 mm), with different size notches for different workpiece thicknesses.

The shape can vary to suit your own needs as long as it performs its intended function of keeping your hands away from the blade. Angling the notch so the push stick can be held at a 20- to 30-degree angle from the saw’s table will help you to hold down the workpiece while also moving it through the saw. Refer to diagram in cutting aids section on page 25 of this manual.

TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES (continued)

KICKBACKS

Kickbacks can cause serious injury. A kickback occurs when a part of the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip fence, or other fixed object, and rises from the table and is thrown toward the operator. Kickbacks can be avoided by attention to the following conditions.

HOW TO REDUCE THE RISK OF KICKBACKS AND PROTECT YOURSELF FROM POSSIBLE INJURY:

• Be certain that the rip fence is parallel to the saw blade.

• DO NOT rip by applying the feed force to the section of the workpiece that will become the cut-off (free) piece. Feed force when ripping should always be applied between the saw blade and the fence; use a push stick for narrow work, 6 inches (152 mm) wide or less.

• Keep saw blade guard, riving knife and antikickback assembly in place and operating properly. The riving knife must be in alignment with the saw blade and the anti-kickback assembly must stop a kickback once it has started. Check their action before ripping by pushing the wood under the antikickback assembly. The teeth must prevent the wood from being pulled toward the front of the saw. If any part of assembly is not operational, return to

the nearest authorized service center for repair.

• Plastic and composite materials (like hardboard) 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.

• Use saw blade guard, anti-kickback pawls, and riving knife assembly for every possible operation, including all through-cut sawing.

• Push the workpiece past the saw blade prior to releasing control.

• NEVER rip a workpiece that is twisted or warped, or does not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.

• NEVER saw a large workpiece that cannot be controlled.

• NEVER use the fence as a guide or length stop when crosscutting.

• NEVER saw a workpiece with loose knots, flaws, nails or other foreign objects.

• NEVER rip a workpiece shorter than 10 inches (254 mm).

• NEVER use a dull blade. A dull blade should be replaced or re-sharpened.

POWER CONNECTIONS

POWER SOURCE

This saw is equipped with a 15-amp motor for use with a 120-volt, 60-HZ alternating current. It can be re-wired for use with a 240-volt power source by a qualified electrician. See instructions below regarding proper connections for your saw as wired.

For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the motor’s rating. A line intended only for lights may not be able to properly carry the current needed for a power tool motor; wire that is heavy enough for a short distance may be too light for a greater distance; and a line that can support one power tool may not be able to support two or three.

DO NOT EXPOSE THE MACHINE TO RAIN OR OPERATE THE MACHINE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.

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 machine is equipped with an electric cord having a 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 as provided on your saw or as rewired by your electrician. If it will not fit the

A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20-amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. Before connecting the machine to the power line, make sure the switch (s) is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the machine. A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and overheat the motor. It may also damage the machine.

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 insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipmentgrounding conductor to a live terminal.

POWER CONNECTIONS

(continued)

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong

3-conductor receptacles that accept the machine’s plug, as shown in Figure A, or a properly grounded receptacle with a grounding means adaptor, as shown in Figure B.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

grounding type plugs and matching, properly grounded

IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, HAVE A qualified ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

This is a grounded, cord-connected tool intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal voltage of 120 volts. It is intended to for use on a circuit that has an outlet as shown in FIG. A. It has a plug as shown in FIG A. If you have a 2 pole receptacle as shown in FIG. B you may use a temporary adapter, as shown in FIG. B. if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The green ear lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent grounded outlet box. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

ASSEMBLY

ADJUSTING 90° AND 45° POSITIVE BEVEL STOPS

There are positive stops at each end of the bevel range. To ensure accurate cuts, the positive stops must be positioned at exactly at 90° and 45°. The bevel stops are properly adjusted as shipped. However, for maximum accuracy, you should check the position of the stops upon assembly and from time to time to assure that the settings remain satisfactory. To check the position of the stops and adjust if necessary, refer to Figure 14 and do the following.

1. Release the blade tilt lock knob.

2. Rotate the blade tilt handwheel clockwise and tilt the blade away from, then back toward perpendicular until the stop is reached the "stop position".

3. Using a carpenter’s square, check the angle of the blade face to the table, as shown in Figure 20b, page 20. If the blade is at 90° to the table, proceed to Step 6.

4. If the blade is not perpendicular to the table, turn handwheel to slightly tilt the blade away from the stop position then adjust the 90° stop by rotating the socket set screw located in the table top immediately in front of the left side of throat plate (A). Re-check angle using the carpenter’s square and continue to adjust until the blade is at 90 degrees when returned to the stop position.

5. Rotate the blade tilt wheel counterclockwise until it rests on the 45° stop. Then repeat Steps 4 and 5, adjusting the 45° stop by rotating the socket set screw located in front of the right side of the throat plate. (B)

SECURING SAW TO FLOOR

This saw is designed for portability. Do

not attempt to use the saw to cut a large or cumbersome workpiece without first taking appropriate steps to protect against tipping the saw. Examples of appropriate steps include the use of support tables and/or securing the saw legs to the floor by replacing the saw feet with connecting bolts or by attaching the legs to a floor mounted bracket with u-straps.

PREPARING TO CUT

Failure to comply with the following warnings may result in serious

personal injury.

ALWAYS

• with the blade before operating the switch to start the saw. Blade contact could result in kickback or thrown workpiece.

• To reduce the risk of accidental starting, ALWAYS make sure the switch is in the off position before plugging saw into power source.

make sure your workpiece is not in contact

DO NOT

• this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in serious personal injury.

• Turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting and when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

• Prior to operating the saw, make sure you are familiar with its features and controls, and have made all necessary adjustments as described below.

PREPARING TO CUT

ASSEMBLY

RAISING AND LOWERING THE BLADE

For most applications, it is recommended that you raise the blade 1/8-inch (3.2mm) to 1/4-inch (6.4mm) above the top surface of the workpiece.

Raise or lower the blade with the hand wheel (A) located on the front of the saw (fig 15).

1. Before raising or lowering the blade, be sure to loosen the lock knob (B) by turning it counterclockwise.

2. To raise the saw blade, turn the hand wheel clockwise. To lower the saw blade, turn the hand wheel counter-clockwise.

3. Tighten lock knob to keep blade at the desired height. Only a small amount of force is required to lock the blade raising mechanism securely. Any added force merely puts unnecessary strain on the locking device.

4. When done operating the saw, and when performing maintenance, adjustments or repairs, lower blade below surface of table.

(continued)

FIGURE 15

TILTING THE BLADE

The blade can be tilted up to 45° to the left using the blade tilt wheel (A) located on the right side panel of the saw. The angle of tilt is measured by the bevel gauge on the front of the saw. To tilt the saw blade:

1. Loosen the lock knob (B) counterclockwise and turn the hand wheel clockwise. A pointer on the front of the saw indicates the angle of tilt in ½-degree increments.

2. To lock the saw blade at your desired angle, tighten the lock knob by rotating it clockwise.

FIGURE 16

PREPARING TO CUT

ASSEMBLY

SELECTING AND STORING SAW BLADES

(continued)

Riving knives must be matched to saw blade dimensions in order to function effectively.

The saw blade furnished with your new saw is a 10-inch (254 mm) combination blade, used for cross cutting (across the grain) and ripping (with the grain) through the workpiece. The arbor hole of the blade is 5/8-inch (16 mm) diameter. This blade will produce a good quality cut for most applications.

There are many types of blades available to do specific and special jobs such as cross cut only, rip only, dado cuts thin plywood, paneling, etc.

CHANGING THE SAW BLADE

• Use only 10-inch (254 mm) diameter blades with 5/8-inch (16mm) arbor holes, rated at 3,600 rpm or higher, 0.102-inch (2.6mm) minimum kerf width and

0.073-inch (1.8mm) maximum body thickness.

• To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before installing and removing blades and accessories, before adjusting and when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

1. Remove the throat plate and raise the saw blade to its maximum height.

2. Push and hold arbor lock button (A) shown in Figure 17.

3. Use included arbor wrench to remove the blade retaining nut and flange (B). Remove old blade.

Use only saw blades designed for maximum safe operating speeds of 3,600 RPM or greater.

Saw blades should always be kept sharp. It is recommended that you locate a reputable sharpening service to sharpen your blades when needed.

Never stack blades on top of one another to store. Place material such as cardboard between them to keep the blades from coming in contact with one another, or place them in storage drawer.

Abrasive wheels or blades (including diamond) should not be used on this saw.

4. Place the new blade on the arbor with the teeth pointing down as the blade rotates toward the front of the saw table.

5. Replace and tighten the blade retaining nut and flange.

6. Replace throat plate.

FIGURE 17

RIVING KNIFE POSITION

NOTE: Safety devices, blade guard assembly and anti-

kickback assembly have been removed in Figure 18 in order to show the location of specific features. When operating the saw, these safety devices should be in place and working properly.

The riving knife is a flat plate that fits into the cut made by the saw blade and effectively fights kickback by lessening the tendency of the blade to bind in the cut. It must be installed and properly positioned for every through cut and for every non-through cut unless the riving knife would interfere with the workpiece.

The riving knife thickness (A) must be greater than the blade body or plate thickness (B) and less than the kerf or cutting width (C) as shown in Figure 15. The riving knife provided with this saw is 2.2mm thick and may be used only with a 10-inch (254mm) blade with

0.102-inch (2.6mm) minimum kerf width and 0.073-inch (1.8mm) maximum body thickness. Do not attempt to

use this riving knife with blades that are not within these dimensions.

FIGURE 18

PREPARING TO CUT

(continued)

RIVING KNIFE HEIGHT SETTINGS

The height of the riving knife should be adjusted based on the type of cut being made. For all through cuts (when the wood is completely severed), it should be in the raised position, with anti-kickback fingers and guard installed. For non-through cuts (when the blade does not penetrate the top of the workpiece), the riving knife should be in the lowered position and antikickback fingers and guard removed.

TO RAISE OR LOWER THE RIVING KNIFE:

1. Remove throat plate.

2. Raise blade to full height above table.

3. Pull riving knife release lever (A) up to release riving knife from clamping mechanism. See Figure 19.

4. Push riving knife and release lever to the arbor side of the blade to disengage riving knife from pins.

a. To adjust the riving knife into the through-cut

position, pull riving knife up to lower detent pins.

b. To move the riving knife into the non-through

cut position, push it down to upper detent pins.

NOTE: When adjusting the riving knife up or down, be sure to pull in a radial motion, as shown.

1. Release lever and pull on riving knife to make sure it is properly seated in the raised or lowered position.

2. Securely clamp riving knife by pushing riving knife clamping lever back down to the horizontal position.

3. Replace throat plate.

DO NOT operate saw unless riving

knife is securely clamped in the raised position for through-cutting or the lowered position for non through-cutting.

CHECKING RIVING KNIFE ALIGNMENT

Before connecting the table saw to

the power source and operating the saw, always inspect the blade guard assembly and riving knife for proper alignment and clearance with saw blade. Check the riving knife alignment after each blade change.

TO CHECK ALIGNMENT:

1. Horizontal Alignment: Lay a straight edge on the table against blade face (A) and make sure it extends out along the riving knife (B), as shown in Figure 20a. The riving knife should just touch the straight edge. Be sure the straight edge goes between the teeth and rests on the blade face and the riving knife for proper alignment.

FIGURE 20a

1. Vertical Alignment: Place a carpenter’s square on the table and against the blade face and make sure it extends up along the riving knife (B) as shown in figure 20b. The riving knife and blade should touch the carpenter’s square with no gaps. Be sure the straight edge goes between the teeth and rests on the blade face and the riving knife for proper alignment.

If the riving knife and blade are out of horizontal or vertical alignment, refer to riving knife alignment instructions on page 30 of this manual.

FIGURE 20b

PREPARING TO CUT

USING THE MITER GAUGE

The miter gauge is equipped with adjustable index stops at 90°, 75°, 60°, 45° and 30°. To set the miter for an angled cut, see Figure 21 and:

1. Loosen the handle (A).

2. Depress the thumb lever (B).

3. Move the body of the miter gauge to the desired angle.

4. Release the thumb lever and retighten the handle.

The miter gauge is equipped with a washer on the end of the bar which fits into the t-slot in the table. This allows the miter gauge to be pulled off the front edge of the table without falling. This allows for an increased workpiece capacity in front of the blade.

USING BLADE GUARD ASSEMBLY

(continued)

FIGURE 21

The anti-kickback pawls and blade

guard must be used for all throughcuts. Keep both guard shields down and arms, hands and fingers away from the blade, blade guard and anti-kickback pawls when power is on to prevent serious injury. See assembly instructions on page 13 for proper installation and removal of anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

If there is a need to briefly raise the blade guard (for example, to make a measurement) the guard can be parked in a raised position.

1. Refer to Figure 22 and, lifting the guard from the front, raise the guard shield until it snaps into a locked position above the table. One or both guard shields can be raised.

2. When done making the measurement, return guard to operating position.

CHECKING FENCE ALIGNMENT

Do not attempt to use a rip fence that is not properly aligned.

Every time you use the rip fence, check its alignment to make sure the fence is parallel to the miter slot. To check the alignment of your rip fence, place the fence adjacent to miter slot and lock the fence in place. If the fence is not aligned to the miter slot from the front to the back, see instructions for aligning rip fence on page 29 of this manual. If you are not able to successfully

align the rip fence, replace the rip fence or contact 1-800-223-7278 for further instructions.

FIGURE 22

OPERATION

Failure to comply with the following the warnings may result in serious personal injury.

READ ENTIRE MANUAL. In addition to reading these operating instructions, it is important to read and understand

the entire manual before operating this saw. Follow all applicable instructions regarding assembly, preparation, and adjustment prior to making any cuts and comply with all safety rules and warnings in this section and elsewhere throughout this manual.

1. Each time you use the saw, run through the following checklist:

• Are the power source and power connections adequate for the saw?

• Are the saw and work area free of clutter and by-standers?

• Is the blade tight and properly aligned?

• Does the riving knife thickness match the blade?

• Are the blade and riving knife properly aligned?

• Is the operator qualified to make the cut and familiar with all of the relevant safety rules, warnings and instructions included in this manual?

• Is the operator and everyone in proximity to the saw wearing appropriate eye, hearing and respiratory equipment?

• Are the bevel angle and height adjustment knobs locked in the proper position?

• Is the blade set at the proper height?

• If ripping, is the rip fence parallel to the blade and securely locked in position?

• If crosscutting, is the miter gauge knob tight?

• If making through cuts with a standard blade, are the blade guard riving knife and anti-kickback pawls properly attached and properly functioning with both guards contacting the table surface?

• Is there proper clearance and support for the workpiece as it leaves the blade?

• Are any cutting aids needed? If so, are they in place, or within reach for proper use?

2. The use of attachments and accessories not recommended by DELTA® Power Equipment Corporation may result in injury.

3. Replace or sharpen the anti-kickback fingers when the points become dull.

4. Make sure saw is stable and cutting can be accomplished without tipping the saw. Do not attempt to cut large workpieces without securing saw to a stable surface. To properly secure the saw, see instructions in section entitled Securing Saw to the Floor on page 15 of this manual.

5. Never use the fence and miter gauge together without using a cutoff block as previously described.

6. The proper throat plate must be in place at all times.

7. If your saw makes an unfamiliar noise or if it vibrates excessively, cease operating immediately until the source has been located and the problem corrected.

8. Never perform freehand cutting, plunge cutting, re-sawing or cove cutting.

AVOID KICKBACK

A kickback can occur when the workpiece pinches the blade, or binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other fixed object. This can cause the workpiece to rise from the table and/or be thrown back toward the operator. See instructions for reducing the risk of kickback on page 7 of this manual.

IF KICKBACK OCCURS, turn the saw "OFF" and verify proper alignment of the blade, riving knife and miter gauge or rip fence, and the proper functioning of the riving knife, anti-kickback assembly and blade guard assembly before resuming work.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE SAW

The POWER switch (Figure 23) is located underneath the front left extension wing.

1. To turn the saw "ON", pull the red paddle switch (A) up and toward you.

2. To turn the saw "OFF", push the red paddle switch in.

When not in use, the saw should be turned off and the power switch locked out to prevent unauthorized use. To lock out power switch, use a standard long shackle lock, with a shackle that is at least 2 ¾ inches (70mm) long and with shackle posts no larger than 9/32-inch (7mm) thick.

Your saw is supplied with overload protection. If the motor shuts off or fails to start due to overloading (cutting stock too fast, using a dull blade, using the saw beyond its capacity, etc.) or low voltage, let the motor cool three to five minutes. Then depress the red

MAKING CUTS

Failure to comply with the following the warnings may result in serious

personal injury.

• Never touch the free end of the workpiece or a free piece that is cut off, while the power is on and/or the saw blade is rotating. Blade contact or binding may occur, resulting in a thrown workpiece

• When sawing a long workpiece or a panel, use a work support, such as a sawhorse, rollers or outfeed table at the same height as the table surface of the saw.

• Never try to pull the workpiece back with the blade turning. If you need to pull the workpiece back or lift it off the table, turn the switch off, allow the blade to stop, raise the anti-kickback teeth on each side of the riving knife if necessary, and slide the workpiece out.

reset button (B), on the motor under the saw, shown in Figure 20, and restart the saw.

NOTICE: If the motor continually shuts off due to overloading, contact a qualified electrician.

• Before connecting the table saw to the power source or operating the saw, always inspect the blade guard assembly and riving knife for proper alignment and clearance with saw blade. Check alignment after each change of beveling angle.

• A rip fence should ALWAYS be used for ripping operations to prevent loss of control and personal injury. Always lock the fence to the rail. NEVER perform a ripping operation freehand.

• When making bevel cuts, place the fence on the right side of the blade so that the blade is tilted away from the fence and hands. Keep hands clear of the blade and use a push stick to feed the workpiece unless the workpiece is large enough to allow you to hold it more than 6inches (152 mm) from the blade.

• Before leaving the saw unattended, lock out power switch, or take other appropriate measures to prevent unauthorized use of the saw.

RIP CUTS

1. Remove miter gauge

2. Make sure bevel angle is set to 0°.

3. Set blade to correct height for workpiece.

4. Install rip fence and lock it down parallel with and at desired distance from blade.

5. Keep fingers at least 6 inches from the blade at all times. When the hand cannot be safely put between the blade and the rip fence, select a larger workpiece, or use a push stick and other cutting aids, as needed, to control the workpiece.

6. Make sure the workpiece is clear of the blade (at least 1 inch or 25mm away) before starting the saw

7. Turn saw on.

8. Hold the workpiece flat on the table and against the fence (A). The workpiece must have a straight edge against the fence and must not be warped, twisted or bowed. See proper hand position in Figure 24.

9. Let blade build up to full speed before moving workpiece into the blade.

10. Both hands can be used while starting the cut as long as hands remain 6 inches from the blade.

11. Keep the workpiece against the table and fence and slowly feed the workpiece rearward all the way through the saw blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the workpiece into the blade.

12. Use the push stick and any other cutting aids, as needed, to hold the workpiece against the table and fence, and push the workpiece past the blade. A push stick is included with this saw, and instructions are included to make additional push sticks and other cutting aids.

13. Do not push or hold onto the free or cut-off side of the workpiece.

14. Continue pushing the workpiece until it is clear of the blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the workpiece into the blade.

15. When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to come to a complete stop before removing workpiece from table.

BEVEL RIPPING

Bevel ripping is the same as ripping except the bevel angle (A) is set to an angle other than 0°. When making a bevel rip cut, place the fence on the right side of the blade so that the blade is tilted away from the fence and hands.

CROSSCUTTING

• NEVER use the fence as a guide or length stop when

crosscutting.

• The cut-off piece must never be confined in any through-sawing (cutting completely through the workpiece) operation—to prevent pinching blade which may result in a thrown workpiece and possibly injury.

• When using a block as a cut-off gauge, the block must be at least 3/4-inch (19mm) thick. It is very important that the rear end of the block be secured in a position where the workpiece is clear of the block before it enters the blade to prevent binding of the workpiece.

You can use the miter gauge in either table slot on nonbevel cuts. To increase surface area of miter gauge face, add an auxiliary face (See Cutting Aids section on page 27 of this manual.)

To make a crosscut, refer to Figure 26 and follow this process:

1. Remove rip fence.

2. Make sure bevel angle is set to 0°.

3. Set blade to correct height for workpiece.

4. Place miter gauge in either miter slot.

5. Set miter gauge to 0° and tighten miter gauge lock knob

6. Hands must remain at least 6 inches from blade throughout entire cut. If workpiece is too small to keep hands at least 6 inches away from the blade, select a larger workpiece, or attach an auxiliary face to the miter gauge and attach workpiece to auxiliary

face, For instructions about making auxiliary faces, see Cutting Aids section on page 28 of this manual.

7. Make sure the workpiece is clear of the blade - at least 1 inch or 25mm away - before starting the saw.

8. Turn saw on.

9. Let blade build up to full speed before moving workpiece into the blade.

10. Hand closest to blade should be placed on miter gauge lock knob and hand farthest from blade should hold workpiece firmly against the miter gage face. Do not push or hold onto the free or cut-off side of the workpiece.

11. Slowly feed the workpiece rearward all the way through the saw blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the workpiece into the blade.

12. When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to come to a complete stop before removing cut off piece from table.

FIGURE 26

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING

Bevel crosscutting is the same as crosscutting except the bevel angle (A) is set to an angle other than 90°. When making a bevel crosscut, place the miter gauge in the right miter slot so that the blade is tilted away from the gauge and hands. See Figure 27.

MITER CUTS

Miter cuts are cross cuts with the miter gauge set at an angle other than 90°. For instructions about setting miter gauge angles, see Preparing to Cut. To adjust the preset index miter stops, see Adjusting the Miter Stops on page 28 of this manual.

• Miter angles less than 45˚ may force the blade guard assembly into the saw blade causing damage to the blade guard assembly and personal injury. Before starting the motor, test the operation by feeding the workpiece into the blade guard assembly. If the

blade guard assembly contacts the blade, place the workpiece under the blade guard assembly but not touching the blade - before starting the motor.

• Certain workpiece shapes, such as molding may not lift the blade guard assembly properly. With the power off, feed the workpiece slowly into the blade guard area and until the workpiece touches the blade. If the blade guard assembly contacts the blade, place the workpiece under the blade guard assembly - but not touching the blade - before starting the motor.

OPERATION

(continued)

COMPOUND MITER CUTS

This is a combination of bevel crosscutting and mitering. Refer to Figure 28 and follow the instructions for both bevel crosscutting and mitering. Remember to use the right miter slot for all bevel cuts.

90º

LARGE PANEL CUTS

Place workpiece supports at the same height as the saw table behind saw to support the cut workpiece, and alongside (s) of saw, as needed. Depending on shape of panel, use rip fence or miter gauge to control workpiece. If a workpiece is too large to use either a rip fence or a miter gauge, it is too large for this saw.

DADOS AND OTHER NON-THROUGH CUTS

The use of a non-through cut is essential to cutting grooves, rabbets and dados. Non-through cuts can be made using a standard blade having a diameter of 10 inches or less, or a dado blade up to 13/16 inch wide with a diameter of 8 inches or less. Non-through cuts are the only type of cuts that should be made without the blade guard assembly installed. Make sure the blade guard assembly is reinstalled upon completion of this type of cut.

• When making non-through cuts, follow all applicable warnings and instructions listed below in addition to those listed above for the relevant through cut.

• When making a non-through cut, blade is covered by workpiece during most of cut. Be alert to exposed blade at start and finish of every cut.

• Never feed wood with hands when making any non-through cuts such as rabbets or dados. Always use miter gauge, push blocks or push sticks, and featherboards where appropriate.

• Read the appropriate section which describes the type of cut in addition to this section on non-through or dado cuts. For example, if your non-through cut is a straight cross cut, read and understand the section on straight cross cuts before proceeding.

• Once all dado and non-through cuts are completed, unplug saw and reinstall riving knife or return it to raised position. Install anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Carefully follow the instructions accompanying any specialized blades such as dado blades and molding cutters for proper installation, set up and operation.

8. Depending on shape and size of wood, use either rip fence or miter gauge.

9. Plug saw into power source and turn saw on.

10. Let blade build up to full speed before moving workpiece into blade.

11. Always use push blocks, push sticks, and/or featherboards when making non-through cuts to reduce the risk of serious injury.

12. When cut is made, turn saw off. Wait for blade to come to a complete stop before removing workpiece.

If a deep dado cut is required, use several successive passes rather than attempting to make it with one pass.

OPERATION

MAKING A DADO CUT

Dado blades are stacked blades that can be used when making non-through cuts including through cut slots. Dado blades require a special throat plate. Dado blades and throat plates are all sold separately.

• Carefully follow the instructions accompanying the dado blade for proper installation, set up and operation. Additional guides can be found in woodworking and carpentry websites and publications.

• Do not attempt to stack dado blades thicker than inch (20.64mm) Do not use dado blades larger than 8-inches (200 mm) in diameter.

• The riving knife and blade guard assemblies cannot be used when dadoing. They must be removed as described in Riving Knife and Blade Guard Operations section. Use EXTREME care when using the dado without the blade guard assembly and riving knife.

• Use push sticks, hold-downs, jigs, fixtures or feather boards to help guide and control the workpiece when the guard cannot be used.

• Be sure to reinstall riving knife, anti-kickback pawls blade guard and standard throat plate, and check adjustments when the dado cuts are complete.

/16

(continued)

FIGURE 30

• The accessory dado head set throat plate, shown in Figure 30, must be used in place of the standard throat plate. Be sure the throat plate is level to the table before you proceed.

• Always check dado blade clearance with other components before plugging in the saw.

• Never attempt to use the dado head in a bevel position.

NOTE: The standard outer arbor flange cannot be used with certain dado blade combinations. In those cases, tighten the arbor nut directly against the dado blade set. Save the outer arbor flange for use with other blades and dado combinations.

CUTTING AIDS AND ACCESSORIES

PUSH STICK

In order to operate your table saw safely, you must use a push stick whenever the size or shape of the workpiece would otherwise cause your hands to be within 6-inches (152mm) of the saw blade or other cutter. A push stick is included with this saw.

No special wood is needed to make additional pushsticks as long as it is sturdy and long enough with no knots, checks or cracks. A length of approximately 16 inches (400mm) is recommended with a notch that fits against the edge of the workpiece to prevent slipping. It’s a good idea to have several push sticks of the same minimum length, 16 inches (400mm), with different size notches for different workpiece thicknesses.

The shape can vary to suit your own needs as long as it performs its intended function of keeping your hands away from the blade. Angling the notch so the push stick can be held at a 20- to 30-degree angle from the saw's table will help you to hold down the workplace while also moving the saw.

To construct a push stick, refer to the layout shown in Figure 31.

CUTTING AIDS AND ACCESSORIES

AUXILIARY RIP FENCE FACING

Use an auxiliary rip fence facing when needed for special cuts, such as ripping material that is thin enough to slide under the rip fence provided with your saw, or when a taller rip fence is necessary to complete your cut. To add an auxiliary wood facing to one or both sides of the rip fence, select a piece of wood with smooth surfaces, Attach the wood to the rip fence with two clamps. (see Figure 32) For most work, 3/4-inch (19mm) or 1-inch (25mm) stock is suitable.

AUXILIARY MITER GAUGE FACING

An auxiliary miter gauge facing is used to increase the surface area of the miter gauge face.

If desired, you can fit the miter gauge with an auxiliary wood facing that should be at least 1-inch (25mm) higher than the maximum depth of cut, and at least as wide as the miter gauge.

This auxiliary wood facing can be fastened to the front of the miter gauge by using two wood screws through the holes (A) provided in the miter gauge body and into the wood facing. See Figure 33. Make sure the screws are long enough to secure the facing, but do not extend all the way through the wood.

PUSH BLOCK

1. Select a piece of wood about 4-inches wide, 6-inches long and 1- to 2-inches thick (a cutoff from a 2 by 4 makes a good blank for a push block).

2. Drill a hole in the block and glue in a dowel to use as a handle (you can angle the hole to provide a more comfortable grip on the handle).

3. Glue a piece of rough or soft material such as sandpaper or rubber to the bottom of the block to grip the workpiece (old mouse pads work well). See Figure 34.

FEATHERBOARD

(continued)

Featherboards are used to keep the work in contact with the fence and table (Figure 35), and help prevent kickback. Featherboards are especially useful when ripping small workpieces and for completing nonthrough cuts. The end is angled with a series of narrow slots to give a friction hold on the workpiece, It is locked in place on the table or fence with a c-clamp.

To avoid binding between the

workpiece and the blade, make sure a horizontal feather board presses only on the uncut portion of the workpiece in front of the blade.

Dimensions for making a typical featherboard are shown in Figure 35. Make your featherboard from a straight piece of wood that is free of knots and cracks. Clamp featherboards to the fence and/or table so that the featherboard will hold the workpiece against the fence or table.

1. Select a solid piece of lumber approximately

¾-inch thick, 2 ½-inches wide and 12-inches long.

2. Mark the center width on one end of stock. Miter width to 70° (see miter cut section for information on miter cuts).

3. Set rip fence to allow approximately a 1/4-inch “finger” to be cut in the stock.

4. Feed stock only to mark previously made at 6 inches.

5. Turn saw off and allow blade to completely stop rotating before removing stock.

6. Reset rip fence and cut spaced rips into workpiece to allow approximately 1/4-inch fingers and 1/8-inch spaces between fingers.

CUT OFF GAUGE

When crosscutting a number of pieces to the same length, you can clamp a block of wood (A) (See Figure

36) to the fence and use it as a cut-off gauge. The block (A) must be at least 3/4-inch (19 mm) thick to prevent the cut off piece from binding between the blade and the fence. Once the cut-off length is determined, lock the fence and use the miter gauge to feed the workpiece into the blade.

Always position the cut-off gauge in front of the saw blade.

JIGS

Jigs may be created with a variety of special set-ups to control particular workpiece shapes for particular cuts. Guidance on how to make specialized jigs can be found in woodworking and carpentry websites and publications.

FIGURE 36

Do not attempt to create or use a jig

unless you are thoroughly familiar with table saw safety. Do not use any jig that could result in pinching a kerf or jamming the workpiece between the jig and the blade. Incorrect setups may cause kickback which could result in serious injury.

ALIGNMENT

RIVING KNIFE ALIGNMENT WITH THE BLADE

Alignment between the riving knife and blade is set at the factory and, in most cases, will not need to be adjusted. However, the alignment should always be checked after installing blade or riving knife, and can be adjusted if necessary. If riving knife is out of alignment with blade, adjustment is needed. Riving knife must be in alignment front to back (horizontally) and top to bottom (vertically).

To adjust the riving alignment, see Figure 37 and proceed as follows:

1. Remove the throat plate, blade guard and antikickback assemblies.

2. Raise the blade to full depth of cut and set the tilt angle to 0°.

3. Raise the riving knife to the through-cutting or highest position.

4. Slightly loosen the two socket head cap screws (C).

5. Lay straight edge against the blade face and riving knife as instructed for checking horizontal alignment (see Figure 20a, page 20).

6. Adjust the set screws (A) to move the riving knife in line with the blade according to its position when you checked the alignment above.

7. Lay the straight edge on the opposite side of the blade. Both sides of the riving knife should be within the thickness of the blade body.

8. If it is not possible to align both sides of riving knife within the thickness of the blade body, you need to use a different size blade. See Blade Selection on page 17.

9. Tighten the two socket head cap screws.

10. Place a carpenter’s square on the table, and against the blade face and riving knife as instructed for checking vertical alignment (See Figure 20b, page

20). Then verify that the riving knife is perpendicular to table and in-line with the blade face.

11. If needed, use the set screws (D) to align the riving knife with blade face and the square.

12. Fully tighten the two socket head cap screws.

13. Replace throat plate, blade guard and anti-kickback assemblies before use.

If any dragging or binding of the

workpiece is encountered as it reaches the riving knife, turn unit off and disconnect machine from power source and readjust the riving knife/blade alignment or replace the blade. Never attempt to back partially-cut workpiece out of blade while blade is moving.

FIGURE 37

ADJUSTING THE MITER STOPS

To adjust the index stops for angles other than 90°, 75°, 60°, 45° and 30°:

1. Loosen the miter gauge handle.

2. Loosen the 2 screws for the miter stop segment for the desired new angle. (A) is shown in Figure

35.

3. Move the stop to proper position.

4. Re-tighten the 2 segment screws and handle.
