RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
To help ensure safe operation, please take a moment to learn the machine’s applications and limitations,
as well as potential hazards. General® International disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself
harmless for any injury that may result from the improper use of it’s equipment.
1. Do not operate the saw when tired, distracted, or
under the effects of drugs, alcohol or any medication that impairs reflexes or alertness.
2. The work area should be well lit, clean and free of
debris.
3. Keep children and visitors at a safe distance when
the saw is in operation; do not permit them to operate the saw.
4. Childproof and tamper proof your shop and all
machinery with locks, master electrical switches
and switch keys, to prevent unauthorized or unsupervised use.
5. Stay alert! Give your work your undivided attention.
Even a momentary distraction can lead to serious
injury.
6. Fine particulate dust is a carcinogen that can be
hazardous to health. Work in a well-ventilated area
and whenever possible use a dust collector and
wear eye, ear and respiratory protection devices.
7. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, bracelets, neck-
laces or other jewelry while the saw is in operation.
Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair
and wear non-slip footwear.
8. Be sure that adjusting wrenches, tools, drinks and
other clutter are removed from the machine and/
or the feed table surface before operating.
9. Keep hands well away from the blade and all mov-
ing parts. Use a brush, not hands, to clear away
chips and dust.
10. Be sure that the blade is securely installed and in
proper cutting direction before operation.
11. Be sure the blade has gained full operating speed
before beginning to cut.
12. Always use a clean, properly sharpened blade.
Dirty or dull blades are unsafe and can lead to accidents.
13. If using a power feeder, stop the feeder before stop-
ping the table saw.
14. Do not push or force stock into the blade. The saw
will perform better and more safely when working
at the rate for which it was designed.
15. Use suitable support when cutting stock that does
not have a flat surface. Always hold stock firmly
against the fence when ripping, or against the miter
gauge when cross cutting.
16. To minimize risk of injury in the event of workpiece
kickback, never stand directly in-line with the blade
or in the potential kickback path of the workpiece.
17. Avoid working from awkward or off balance posi-
tions. Do not overreach while cutting; keep both
feet on floor. Never lean over or reach over the
blade and never pull the workpiece over the blade
from behind. Use out feed support or have an assistant help when ripping long material.
18. Keep blade guards in place and in working order.
If a guard must be removed for maintenance or
cleaning, be sure it is properly re-attached before
using the tool again.
19. Never leave the machine unattended while it is run-
ning or with the power on.
20. Use of parts and accessories NOT recommended
by GENERAL® INTERNATIONAL may result in equipment malfunction or risk of injury.
21. Never stand on machinery. Serious injury could re-
sult if the tool is tipped over or if the blade is unintentionally contacted.
22. Always disconnect tool from power before servic-
ing or changing accessories such as blades, or
before performing any maintenance, cleaning or
adjustments, or if the machine will be left unattended.
23. Make sure that switch is in “OFF” position before
plugging in the power cord.
24. Make sure the tool is properly grounded. If equipped
with a 3-prong plug it should be used with a threepole receptacle. Never remove the third prong.
25. Do not use this saw for any purpose other than
its intended use. If used for other purposes,
GENERAL® INTERNATIONAL disclaims any real implied warranty and holds itself harmless for any injury, which may result from that use.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
BEFORE CONNECTING THE MACHINE TO THE POWER SOURCE, VERIFY THAT THE VOLTAGE OF YOUR POWER SUPPLY
CORRESPONDS WITH THE VOLTAGE SPECIFIED ON THE MOTOR I.D. NAMEPLATE. A POWER SOURCE WITH GREATER
VOLTAGE THAN NEEDED CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY TO THE USER AS WELL AS DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE. IF IN
DOUBT, CONTACT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN BEFORE CONNECTING TO THE POWER SOURCE.
THIS TOOL IS FOR INDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN OR USE IN WET OR DAMP LOCATIONS.
Note: voltage requirements and amperage draw for M2 & M3 3-phase motors may not
be fully described in this manual. For complete electrical requirements refer to the motor I.D. name plate on the machine. If in doubt consult a licensed qualified electrician
before proceeding.
CIRCUIT CAPACITY
Make sure that the wires in your circuit are capable of
handling the amperage draw from your machine, as
well as any other machines that could be operating on
the same circuit. If you are unsure, consult a qualified
electrician. If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows
regularly, your machine may be operating on a circuit
that is close to its amperage draw capacity. However, if
an unusual amperage draw does not exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a qualified technician or
our service department.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Both a manual circuit breaker (or similar device) as well
as an electrical plug are recommended and should
be installed by a qualified electrician. Use locally approved wire that includes a separate grounding wire
and a 3-prong grounding type plug A with a matching
receptacle B .
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of an electrical malfunction or short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock to the operator. The motor of the “M1” model of this machine is
wired for 220V single phase operation.
As with many stationary industrial type machines, because each installation situation is unique, this machine
is supplied without a power cord or plug.
The installation of an appropriate power cord and plug
must be performed by a qualified electrician. The machine must be connected to an electrical source using
a power cord that has a grounding wire, which must
also be properly connected to the grounding prong
on the plug. The outlet must be properly installed and
grounded and all electrical connections must be made
in accordance with all local codes and regulations.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of an extension cord is not generally recommended for 220V equipment. If you find it necessary,
use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plug and a matching 3-pole receptacle that
accepts the tool’s plug. Repair or replace a damaged
extension cord or plug immediately.
Make sure the cord rating is suitable for the amperage listed on the motor I.D. plate. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. The accompanying chart shows the correct size extension cord to be
used based on cord length and motor I.D. plate amp
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the number, the heavier the gauge.

The General International model 50-450R (right tilt) - 50-460R (left tilt) cabinet saw is available with various motor
size and electrical voltage requirement options (see manual coverpage for complete list).
This cabinet saw has been designed for cutting solid wood as well as manufactured wood materials such as plywood, wood paneling, particleboard, mdf and other wood based by-products.
This saw is not designed for cutting metals nor for cutting any materials other than wood or wood based stock.
This saw is designed for use with maximum 12” (305 mm) diameter blades having a center hole diameter of 1”
(25.4 mm).
The blade can be raised to cut a maximum stock thickness of 4” (102 mm) with the blade set 90° to the table. The
blade can be tilted up to 45° to the left for bevel cuts to a maximum stock thickness of 2 13/16” (72 mm).
Using any standard after market 8”diameter stacked dado blade set (not included), the maximum dado cutting
capacity of this saw is 13/16” (21 mm). Note: for safe dado cutting, an optional dado adapter kit (#50-455 ou
#50-465) is required and can be purchased through your General International distributor.
To encourage safety through the proper use of either the supplied riving style splitter/blade guard assembly or
the European style riving knife the 50-450R/460R is designed with a quick install/quick release feature allowing the
user to install or remove either of these safety components in seconds.
INSTALLATION
THIS MODEL 50-450R/460R 12” CABINET SAW IS HEAVY. DO NOT OVER-EXERT. A HOIST OR FORKLIFT WITH STRAPS
SHOULD BE USED TO LIFT THIS MACHINE. TO LIMIT THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE MACHINE, ANY
EQUIPMENT USED TO LIFT THIS MACHINE SHOULD HAVE A RATED CAPACITY IN EXCESS OF 506 LBS (230 KG).
PLACEMENT WITHIN THE SHOP
This machine should be installed and operated only on a solid, flat and stable floor that is able to support the
weight of the machine (506 lbs - 230 kg) and the operator.
Using the dimensions shown as a guideline, plan for placement within your shop that will allow the operator to
work unencumbered and unobstructed by foot traffic (either passing shop visitors or other shop workers) or other
tools or machinery.
ESTABLISHING A SAFETY ZONE*
For shops with frequent visitors or multiple operators, it is advisable to establish a safety zone
around shop machinery. A clearly defined “nogo” zone on the floor around each machine can
help avoid accidents that could cause injury to
either the operator or the shop visitor.
It is advisable to take a few moments to either
paint (using non-slip paint) or using tape, define
on the floor the limits or perimeter of each machines safety zone.
Take steps to ensure that all operators and shop
visitors are aware that these areas are off limits
whenever a machine is running for everyone but
the individual operating the unit.

CLEAN UP
The protective coating on the saw table prevents rust
from forming during shipping and storage. Remove it
by rubbing with a rag dipped in kerosene, mineral spirits or paint thinner. (Dispose of potentially flammable
solvent-soaked rags according to manufacturer’s safety recommendations).
A putty knife, held flat to avoid scratching the surface,
may also be used to scrape off the coating followed by
clean-up with solvent. Avoid rubbing the saw’s painted
surfaces, as many solvent-based products will remove
paint.
To prevent rust, apply a light coating of paste wax or
use regular applications of any after-market surface
protectant or rust inhibitor.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE STARTING THE ASSEMBLY, MAKE SURE THAT THE SWITCH IS IN THE “OFF” POSITION AND THAT THE POWER

INSTALL / REMOVE A SAW BLADE
NOTE: This saw is intended for use with 12” (305 mm) diameter or less saw blades having a center hole
diameter of 1”. There are many types of blades available to perform specific cutting jobs, such as crosscuts
or ripping only, or for use with plywood, panelling and other products. A good quality specialty blade can
produce a finer finish, be more efficient and place less strain on the saw. Use only saw blades designed
for operating speeds of 4300 RPM or higher. Saw blades should be kept clean and sharp. Never store saw
blades by stacking them directly in contact with each other. Place a layer of cardboard or similar material
between the blades to keep them from coming into contact with each other.
BE SURE THE SAW IS UNPLUGGED AND COMPLETELY DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE WHENEVER INSTALLING OR
REMOVING A SAW BLADE!

5. To remove a saw blade: perform the same procedure turning the arbor nut in the opposite direction.
BEFORE TURNING ON THE SAW, MAKE SURE THE ARBOR LOCK IS DISENGAGED (POPS UP) BY TURNING THE BLADE A
FRACTION TO UNLOCK. TURN THE BLADE BY HAND ONE FULL ROTATION TO MAKE SURE THE ARBOR/BLADE TURNS
FREELY.
NOTE: WHEN TIGHTENING THE ARBOR NUT, TAKE CARE NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN AS THIS WILL MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO REMOVE
LATER. BECAUSE THE ROTATION OF THE BLADE RUNS COUNTER TO THE DIRECTION OF THE THREADS ON THE NUT, THE BLADE IS
ESSENTIALLY TIGHTENING ITSELF TO THE NUT WHENEVER THE SAW IS RUNNING. THOUGH THERE ARE NO HARD AND FAST RULES FOR
HOW MUCH TORQUE IS REQUIRED, THE ARBOR NUT SHOULD BE ALWAYS TIGHTENED HAND-TIGHT AND JUST SLIGHTLY BEYOND
“SNUG”.
NOTE: IF USING THE SAW WITH 10" BLADES, THE OPTIONAL 10" RIVING KNIFE #50-456 IS REQUIRED
INSTALL AND ADJUST RIVING KNIFE
THE BLADE MUST NEVER REMAIN EXPOSED WHEN USING THE SAW. TO PREVENT THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURIES,

3. Use a feeler gauge to measure the clearance be-
tween the straightedge and the blade. The width
of the gap must be more or less the same on each
side of the splitter/knife. If needed, re-adjust the set
screws on both right and left side of the splitter/
knife mounting bracket to increase or decrease
the clearance between the straight edge and the
blade.
STOP
LEVEL THE TABLE INSERT
Place the insert into the table and use a straightedge to
determine whether the insert is level with the table top.
Turn each of the 6 adjusting screws A with the a 3 mm
Allen key until done.
Note: If the saw blade has already been installed, use the
raising handwheel to lower the blade below the table surface before leveling the insert.
TIP: START BY ADJUSTING ONE REAR SCREW AND ITS DIAGONAL OPPOSITE IN FRONT, THEN TWEAK THE REMAINING SCREWS.
BASIC ADJUSTMENTS & CONTROLS
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE
TO AVOID UNINTENTIONAL START-UP, MAKE SURE THAT THE POWER SWITCH ON THE SAW IS IN THE OFF POSITION BEFORE
CONNECTING TO A POWER SOURCE. TO AVOID RISK OF SHOCK OR FIRE DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WITH A DAMAGED
POWER CORD OR PLUG. REPLACE DAMAGED CORD OR PLUG IMMEDIATELY.
A
Once the assembly steps have been completed, plug
the power cord into an appropriate outlet. Refer back
to the section entitled “ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS” and
make sure all requirements and grounding instructions
are followed. When cutting operations have been
completed unplug the saw from the power source.
ON/OFF MAGNETIC POWER SWITCH*
TO PREVENT UNWANTED OR UNAUTHORIZED START-UP OR USAGE, REMOVE THE LOCK-OUT KEY AND STORE IT IN A
SAFE PLACE, OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN, WHENEVER THE SAW IS NOT IN USE.
This model 50-450R/460R is equipped with a Magnetic
2-step safety switch to prevent unwanted or unintentional start-up and unauthorized use of the saw.
The switch assembly is equipped with a GREEN “START”

BLADE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT*
1/4”
The blade height adjustment handwheel is located on
the front of the saw A and there is a lock knob B on
the handwheel that allows you to lock the wheel and
secure the blade at the desired height.
To raise or lower the blade:
1. Loosen the blade height lock knob B by turning
counter clockwise.
2. To raise the blade: turn the handwheel A clockwise.
To lower the blade: turn the handwheel A counter-
clockwise.
3. With the blade set to the desired height, tighten the
lock knob B by turning clockwise to lock the blade.
BLADE TILT (BEVEL) ADJUSTMENT*
B
A
1/4”
The blade tilt (bevel) adjustment handwheel is located
on the side of the saw C and there is a lock knob D on
the handwheel that allows you to lock the wheel and
secure the blade at the desired angle.
To change the angle of the blade:
1. Loosen the bevel lock knob D by turning it counter clockwise.
2. Turn the handwheel C left or right as required to set
the blade to the desired angle. The blade can be tilt ed to the left anywhere from 0° (90° to the table) to
45°.
TO LIMIT YOUR EXPOSURE TO THE BLADE AND ALSO TO MAXIMISE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS (WHEN USING THE RIVING STYLE SPLITTER & BLADE GUARD), NEVER TAKE MORE BLADE HEIGHT
THAN IS REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE CUT. WHEN SETTING THE BLADE HEIGHT FOR THROUGH-CUTS (CUTS
ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE THICKNESS OF A BOARD) SET THE HEIGHT OF THE BLADE TO ROUGHLY 1/4”
HIGHER THAN THE THICKNESS OF THE BOARD.
3. With the blade tilted to the desired angle, tighten the
lock knob by turning it clockwise to lock the tilting
mechanism and secure the blade.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
D
C
VERIFY ALL CHECK POINTS BEFORE STARTING. FAILURE TO COMPLY CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURIES.
• Make sure that the arbor nut is secure and that the blade is firmly tightened snug on the arbor.
• Make sure that the arbor lock is disengaged and the blade spins unobstructed when rotated by hand.
• Check that the blade angle and height lock knobs are tight. If ripping, make sure the fence lock lever is engaged and that the fence is parallel to the blade.
• If cross cutting, make sure the miter gauge is locked tight.
• While using the saw, be sure to wear safety glasses at all times.
• Make sure that the blade guard/splitter assembly or riving knife is properly installed and aligned with the
blade, and that the anti-kickback pawls are functioning.
• If the saw is installed on a mobile base, make sure that the wheels have been completely locked.

TYPES OF CUTS
NEVER REACH IN TOWARDS THE BLADE WHILE THE BLADE IS STILL SPINNING! WHENEVER A RIP CUT IS COMPLETED,
TURN OFF THE SAW AND WAIT FOR THE BLADE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE REACHING IN TO REMOVE THE
WORKPIECE OR THE WASTE MATERIAL.
RIPPING*
Cutting a wood plank or sheet of plywood lengthwise to
reduce its width is called “ripping.” To rip stock, hold the
work with both hands pushing it into the blade as well as
firmly against the rip fence so that it is cut straight A.
• The work to be cut must have a straight edge to ride
the fence and must be flat to make solid contact
with the table during the cut in order to avoid “kickback” (a blade jam causing the wood to fly backwards and hit you).
• Never rip or cut wood without using the fence or miter gauge to guide it because the stock could kickback.
• Always use the blade guard and splitter/riving knife
assembly when cutting wood. The anti-kickback fingers and splitter/riving knife prevent the saw “kerf” (the slit
cut by the blade) from closing and binding the blade, which can overload and/or stall the motor or cause
the blade to lift and eject the workpiece towards the front of the saw at very high speeds. The blade guard
keeps your fingers away from the blade and also reduces the amount of sawdust flying free.
• Although certain operations require the removal of the blade guard and splitter assembly, it should always be
replaced for regular cutting.
• Never stand in the line of the blade when ripping.
• Raise the saw blade only about 1/4” higher than the workpiece to be cut.
As you complete the rip, the wood will either remain on the table, tilt up to be caught on the end of the guard,
or fall onto the floor (or outfeed table). The waste part of the stock remains on the table to be removed only after
the saw is stopped (unless it is large enough for immediate safe removal).

A
NEVER REACH IN TOWARDS THE BLADE WHILE THE BLADE IS STILL SPINNING! WHENEVER A RIP CUT IS COMPLETED,
TURN OFF THE SAW AND WAIT FOR THE BLADE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE REACHING IN TO REMOVE THE
WORKPIECE OR THE WASTE MATERIAL.
If the work to be ripped is narrow, it is safer to use the
supplied push stick, rather than hands, to feed it into the
blade B.
When ripping extremely narrow stock that may not clear
the width of the blade guard, or very thin material such
as paneling, which may slip between the underside of
the fence and the table surface, a strip of wood as an
auxiliary guide can be attached to the fence.
BEVEL RIPPING
Bevel ripping is performed the same as ripping but with the saw blade set to an angle not perpendicular to the
table surface. After changing the bevel angle verify the alignment of the guard and splitter; make sure there is
clearance with the saw blade.
RIPPING SMALL WORK PIECES
Do not attempt rip cuts if the work piece is too small, as this will oblige you to place your hands too close to the
blade and put you at serious risk of injury. When ripping narrower widths; use a push block or a push stick in order
to avoid placing hands near the blade.

19
CROSS CUTTING*
Cutting against the grain, to shorten the length of a
board is crosscutting. With some smaller-sized and rectangular pieces, you often have the choice of ripping
or crosscutting.
Always use the miter gauge C when crosscutting; never
cut a piece unsupported. The miter gauge may be
used in either slot, but most operators prefer the left
groove for typical work. When the blade is tilted for
bevel cutting, use the table slot that does not cause
interference with your hand or the blade guard.
To begin crosscutting, place the work on the miter
gauge and, with the motor OFF, slide it up close to the
blade to align the outer edges of the teeth with your
cut mark D.
Keep a firm grip as you pull the miter gauge and the
wood back away from the blade. Turn on the saw and
make the cut. When the work is cut through, move one
or both cut pieces — if long enough to handle without
danger — immediately off to the side, away from the
turning blade. Turn off the motor.
BEVEL CROSS CUTTING
This procedure is the same as cross cutting except that the blade is set to an angle other than 0. After changing
the bevel angle, verify the alignment of the blade cover and splitter and verify that there is clearance with the
saw blade.

ADJUSTING AND USING THE MITER GAUGE
ADJUSTING THE MITER GAUGE
The miter gauge supplied with your saw has accurately
adjusted index stops at 90° and 45° to the right and left,
with a 30° maximum.
To use a setting other than 90°, loosen the lock knob A
by turning it counterclockwise, flip down the stop-lock
tab B and rotate the miter head to 45°, or any angle
shown on the numerical guide. Turn the lock knob
clockwise to tighten it.
To check the accuracy of the miter gauge’s factory
settings, set it at 90° and check it with an L-square or
T-square. To verify the setting, make a test cut in scrap
stock and then use a square to check the cut piece.
If the miter gauge needs adjusting, manually turn
the head so the pointer is where you think it ought to
be, tighten the lock knob and loosen the nut C. Turn
the adjusting screw until it touches the stop-lock tab.
Tighten down the nut. Recheck the angle by making
another test cut. Repeat, if necessary, until a true 90° is
achieved.

20
ADDING AN AUXILIARY FENCE TO THE MITER GAUGE
To ensure a true 90° cross cut, especially with longer
pieces of wood that need more support than the narrow miter gauge head can provide, an auxiliary wood
fence can be attached.
Make sure the wood for the fence is straight, not bowed.
It should be about 2” wide and extend about 12” from
either side of the miter head. Drill 2 holes in the wood
corresponding to those on the miter head and use bolts
and nuts to secure the wood fence to the head A.
To use the miter gauge with an auxiliary fence, first
notch the fence with the saw blade a bit higher than
the workpiece B. Measure and draw a cutline on your
wood C then place it on the miter fence. Position your
cutline against the notch. Turn on the saw, slide the work
up until it is cut through (but don’t cut off the fence).
Marking Wood. If you measure a cut for 24”, line up the
blade on the waste side of the mark.
Don’t cut through the middle of the measurement line
or you’ll reduce your desired board length by half the
width of the saw blade! For accurate work, don’t mark
your cut with a fat pencil line D. A narrow dash, with a
sharp pencil point is best E.
FOCUS
A
B
C
FRONT VIEW
G
F
Encircle the dash so you’ll find it again and add a small
“x” to indicate the waste or cut-off side F. Pencils, like
saw blades, have thickness.
When squaring off from the cut mark, align your square
to allow for pencil clearance, which will be about 1/16”
away from the drawing edge of the square G.
MITER CUTS
This operation is the same as cross cutting, except the
miter gauge is set to an angle other than 0. Hold the
workpiece firmly against the miter gauge and feed the
workpiece slowly into the blade to prevent it from moving during the cut I.
COMPOUND MITERING
This is a combination of bevel cross cutting and mitering. It is infrequently used. Follow instructions for both bevel
cutting and mitering.

21
USING A DADO BLADE
ALWAYS VERIFY THE DADO BLADE CLEARANCE BEFORE CONNECTING THE SAW TO THE POWER SOURCE. RE-ATTACH THE
GUARD AND ADJUST AFTER DADO CUT IS FINISHED. THE MAXIMUM DADO HEAD WIDTH FOR THIS SAW IS 13/16” AND THE
MAXIMUM DADO BLADE DIAMETER IS 8”.
Dadoing is cutting a “rabbet” or a wide groove into
the work. A dado blade A (not supplied with your saw)
usually consists of two outer blades and several interior
cutters. These can be adjusted to cut grooves from 1/8”
to 13/16” for making shelves, joints and tenoning. Set the
blade’s width according to the instructions supplied with
your dado blade.
After adjusting its width, mount the dado blade on your
saw just like a regular blade. You’ll need an optional
dado adapter kit B (Item #50-455R for #50-450R or #50465R for 50-460R). Use the fence to line up the cut. The
blade guard/splitter must be removed when dadoing.
Never use the dado blade in a bevel position.
AB
MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
MAKE SURE THE SAW HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND UNPLUGGED FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
• Inspect/test the ON/OFF switch before each use. Do not operate the saw with a damaged switch - replace a
damaged switch immediately
• Inspect the saw blade for damage or chipped teeth before each use. Replace a damaged or chipped blade
immediately. Never operate the saw with a damaged or chipped blade
• Keep the saw table clean and free of dust, pitch or glue. An occasional light coating of paste wax can be used
to protect the cast-iron surface. Ask our local distributor for suggestions on table top cleaners and cast-iron sur face protectionbased on what is readily available in your area.
• Occasionally open the cabinet door and brush off and vacuum out accumulated dust from inside the cabi net and on the blade tilting gears, and on or around the motor.
• Periodically inspect the power cord and plug for damage. To minimize the risk of electric shock or fire, never
operate the saw with a damaged power cord or plug. Replace a damaged power cord or plug at the first
sign of damage.
• To minimize airborne dust particles periodically inspect all dust collection fittings – re-tighten as needed.
LUBRICATION
Keep the blade height adjustment mechanism A as well
as the blade tilt mechanism B (both accessible by the
motor cover door) well lubricated and free of dust or debris. Clean and remove dust, debris, and old grease as
needed depending on frequency of use. After cleaning,
re-apply grease as needed. The motor and all bearings
are sealed and permanently lubricated – no further
lubrication is required. No other part of this table saw
needs lubrication.
Note: Use any all-purpose grease, available at any hardware store.

handwheel clockwise until it stops.
3. Verify the 90° angle of the blade with a combinations quare from the left side of the blade, keep the
square flat against the table and against the flat part
of the blade - Do not touch the teeth or the table
insert A.
90°
If the blade angle is incorrect, adjust the 90° stop located inside the cabinet, on the left side of the saw.
Proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the jam-nut C using a 5/8” open end wrench.
2. Adjust the height of the 90° stop bolt D until the blade is 90° to the table when the 90° stop bolt touches the
stop. Re-tighten the jam-nut.
ADJUSTING THE BEVEL ANGLE POINTER*
The bevel pointer should read “0” when the blade is at 90° to the table. If not, proceed as follows:
A
1. With the blade set 90° vertical to the table, loosen
the set screw on the front handwheel shaft using
a Allen key, remove the handwheel lock knob A
and pry the handwheel off its shaft.
ADJUSTING THE 45° BEVEL STOP
Verify the 45° setting by tilting the blade as far as possible
to the left or right and using a square to check the angle
A. If needed adjust as for the 90° stop, this time using the
stop screw B inside the cabinet, at the front of the saw.
C
B
2. Once the handwheel has been removed, loosen
the screw B on the pointer mounting bracket (us ing a 10 mm wrench) and manually align the
pointer with the zero on the bevel scale C, then re tighten the screw and re-attach the handwheel.
