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 15. Use suitable support when cutting stock that does
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, necklaces 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 moving 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 stopping 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.
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 positions. 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.

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.

BASIC FUNCTIONS
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 oper- |
|
|
|
ators, it is advisable to establish a safety zone |
|
85" |
|
around shop machinery. A clearly defined “no- |
|
|
|
go” zone on the floor around each machine can |
|
|
|
help avoid accidents that could cause injury to |
|
31 ½" |
|
either the operator or the shop visitor. |
|
|
|
It is advisable to take a few moments to either |
34" |
|
|
|
|
||
paint (using non-slip paint) or using tape, define |
|
|
|
on the floor the limits or perimeter of each ma- |
|
|
|
chines safety zone. |
|
|
|
Take steps to ensure that all operators and shop |
24 ½" |
25" |
|
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.
TIP: WITH A SCREWDRIVER, PUSH A SOLVENT-SATURATED RAG INTO THE T-SLOTS TO REMOVE THE GREASE.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE STARTING THE ASSEMBLY, MAKE SURE THAT THE SWITCH IS IN THE “OFF” POSITION AND THAT THE POWER CORD IS UNPLUGGED. DO NOT PLUG IN OR TURN ON THE SAW UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION STEPS DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION OF THE MANUAL.
