Page 12
WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally contacting cutting tool or moving parts.
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece mate­rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to reduce your risk.
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear­ing protection when operating or observing loud machinery. Extended exposure to this noise without hearing protection can cause permanent hearing loss.
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on machinery can become dangerous projectiles upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches, or any other tools on machine. Always verify removal before starting!
USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use this tool for its intended purpose—do not force it or an attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. Never make unapproved modifica­tions—modifying tool or using it differently than intended may result in malfunction or mechanical failure that can lead to personal injury or death!
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing and balance at all times when operating machine. Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions that make workpiece control difficult or increase the risk of accidental injury.
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Stop using machine if they become a distraction.
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce accidental contact with moving parts or flying debris. Make sure they are properly installed, undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE operating machine.
FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine. It will do the job safer and better at the rate for which it was designed.
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur­ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec­ommended accessories. Using improper acces­sories will increase the risk of serious injury.
UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and ensure all moving parts completely stop before walking away. Never leave machine running while unattended.
MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance instructions and lubrication schedules to keep machine in good working condition. A machine that is improperly maintained could malfunction, leading to serious personal injury or death.
DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or any condition that could affect safe operation. Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate machine with damaged parts!
MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect­ing cord-connected machines from power, grab and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord may damage the wires inside. Do not handle cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time you experience difficulties performing the intend­ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.

Additional Safety for Table Saws
Serious cuts, amputation, or death can occur from contact with rotating saw blade during operation. Workpieces, broken blades, or flying particles thrown by blade can blind or strike operators or bystanders with deadly force. To reduce the risk of these hazards, operator and bystanders MUST completely heed the hazards and warnings below.
HAND & BODY POSITIONING. Keep hands
away from saw blade and out of blade path dur­ing operation, so they cannot accidentally slip into blade. Only operate at front of machine and always stand to side of blade path. Never reach behind or over blade.
BLADE GUARD. The blade guard protects oper­ator from rotating saw blade. Make sure blade guard is installed, adjusted correctly, and used for all possible “through cuts.” Promptly repair or replace if damaged. Re-install immediately after operations that require its removal.
RIVING KNIFE. Use riving knife for all “non­through cuts.” Make sure it is aligned and posi­tioned correctly. Promptly repair or replace it if damaged.
KICKBACK. Kickback occurs when saw blade ejects workpiece back toward operator. Know how to reduce risk of kickback, and learn how to protect yourself if it does occur.
FEEDING WORKPIECE. Feeding workpiece incorrectly increases risk of kickback. Always allow blade to reach full speed before cutting, feed workpiece from front of saw, making sure workpiece is flat against table and a fence, miter gauge, or other guide is used to feed workpiece in a straight line. Feed cuts through to completion. Never start saw with workpiece touching blade or pull workpiece from behind blade. Never back workpiece out of cut, move it sideways, or perform a “freehand” operation. Never plunge cut.
PUSH STICKS/PUSH BLOCKS. To reduce risk of accidental blade contact, use push sticks/ push blocks whenever possible. In event of an accident, these will often take damage that would have occurred to hands/fingers.
FENCE. To reduce risk of kickback, make sure fence remains properly adjusted and parallel with blade. Always lock fence before using.
CUT-OFF PIECES. To avoid risk of injury due to blade contact, turn saw OFF and allow blade to completely stop before removing cut-off pieces near blade or trapped between blade and table insert. Never use your hands to move cut-off pieces away from blade while saw is running.
BLADE ADJUSTMENTS. Adjusting blade height or tilt during operation increases risk of crash­ing blade and sending metal fragments flying with deadly force at operator or bystanders. Only adjust blade height and tilt when blade is com­pletely stopped and saw is OFF.
CHANGING BLADES. Accidental startup while changing saw blade can result in serious injury. To reduce risk of accidental blade contact, always disconnect power before changing blades.
DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Damaged saw blade teeth can become deadly projectiles. Never use blades that have been dropped or damaged.
DADO AND RABBET OPERATIONS. Dado and rabbeting operations require special attention since they must be performed with blade guard removed, which increases risk of blade contact. DO NOT attempt dado or rabbeting operations without first reading these sections in this manual.
CUTTING CORRECT MATERIAL. Cutting metal, glass, stone, tile, etc., increases risk of operator injury due to kickback or flying particles. Only cut natural and man-made wood products, laminate­covered wood products, and some plastics. Never cut materials not intended for this saw.

Preventing Kickback
Below are ways to avoid the most common causes of kickback:
Only cut workpieces with at least one smooth and straight edge. DO NOT cut warped, cupped or twisted wood.
Never move the workpiece backwards or try to back it out of a cut while the blade is mov­ing. If you cannot complete a cut for some reason, stop the saw motor and allow the blade to completely stop before backing the workpiece out. Promptly fix the condition that prevented you from completing the cut before starting the saw again.
Keep the blade guard installed and working correctly for all through cuts.
Never attempt freehand cuts. If the workpiece is not fed parallel with the blade, kickback will likely occur. Always use the rip fence or miter gauge to support the workpiece.
Make sure the spreader or riving knife is aligned with the blade. A misaligned spreader or riving knife can cause the workpiece to catch or bind, increasing the chance of kick­back.
Take the time to check and adjust the rip fence parallel with the blade; otherwise, the chances of kickback are extreme.
The spreader or riving knife maintains the kerf in the workpiece, reducing the chance of kickback. Always use the riving knife for all non-through operations, unless a dado blade is installed. Always use the spreader with the blade guard for all through cuts.
Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime you stop feeding a workpiece in the middle of a cut, the chance of kickback is greatly increased.
Keep the blade guard installed and in good working order. Only remove it when per­forming non-through cuts and immediately re-install the blade guard when finished. Remember, always use the riving knife for all non-through operations, unless a dado blade is installed.
Make multiple, shallow passes when per­forming a non-through cut. Making a deep non-through cut will greatly increase the chance of kickback.
Protecting Yourself
From Kickback
Even if you know how to prevent kickback, it may still happen. Here are some ways to pro­tect yourself if kickback DOES occur:
Stand to the side of the blade during every cut. If kickback does occur, the thrown workpiece usually travels directly in front of the blade.
Wear safety glasses or a face shield. In the event of kickback, your eyes and face are the most vulnerable part of your body.
Never, for any reason, place your hand behind the blade. Should kickback occur, your hand will be pulled into the blade, which could cause amputation.
Use a push stick to keep your hands farther away from the moving blade. If kickback occurs, the push stick will most likely take the damage your hand would have received.
Use featherboards or anti-kickback devices to assist with feeding and prevent or slow down kickback.
Statistics show that most common acci­dents among table saw users can be linked to kickback. Kickback is typically defined as the high-speed expulsion of stock from the table saw toward its operator. In addition to the danger of the operator or others in the area being struck by the flying stock, it is often the case that the operator’s hands are pulled into the blade during kickback.

SECTION 2: POWER SUPPLY
For your own safety and protection of
Note: Circuit requirements in this manual apply to
a dedicated circuit—where only one machine will be running on the circuit at a time. If machine will be connected to a shared circuit where multiple machines may be running at the same time, con­sult an electrician or qualified service personnel to ensure circuit is properly sized for safe operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment between the breaker box or fuse panel in the building and the machine. The power sup­ply circuit used for this machine must be sized to safely handle the full-load current drawn from the machine for an extended period of time. (If this machine is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)
This machine is prewired to operate on a power supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets the following requirements:
This machine can be converted to operate on a power supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets the requirements listed below. (Refer to Voltage Conversion instructions for details.)
Before installing the machine, consider the avail­ability and proximity of the required power supply circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the requirements for this machine, a new circuit must be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution, fire, or equipment damage, installation work and electrical wiring must be done by an electrician or qualified service personnel in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.

not properly grounded
The full-load current rating is the amperage a machine draws at 100% of the rated output power. On machines with multiple motors, this is the amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum of all motors and electrical devices that might operate at one time during normal operations.
The full-load current is not the maximum amount of amps that the machine will draw. If the machine is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient length of time, damage, overheating, or fire may result— especially if connected to an undersized circuit. To reduce the risk of these hazards, avoid over­loading the machine during operation and make sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that meets the specified circuit requirements.

Grounding Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
For 230V operation: This machine is equipped with a power cord that has an equipment-ground­ing wire and a grounding plug (see following fig­ure). The plug must only be inserted into a match­ing receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
For 115V operation: The plug specified under “ ous page has a grounding prong that must be attached to the equipment-grounding wire inside the included power cord. The plug must only be inserted into a matching receptacle (see following figure) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The wire with green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power cord or plug is nec­essary, do not connect the equipment-grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service per­sonnel if you do not understand these grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt about whether the tool is properly grounded. If you ever notice that a cord or plug is damaged or worn, discon­nect it from power, and immediately replace it with a new one.
We do not recommend using an extension cord with this machine. cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which can damage electrical components and shorten motor life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller (higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must be in good condition and contain a ground wire and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must meet the following size requirements:

Dust Collection
This machine creates a lot of wood chips/ dust during operation. Breathing airborne dust on a regular basis can result in perma­nent respiratory illness. Reduce your risk by wearing a respirator and capturing the dust with a dust collection system.
Minimum CFM at Dust Port: 500 CFM +
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rating of the dust collector. To determine the CFM at the dust port, you must consider these variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector, (2) hose type and length between the dust col­lector and the machine, (3) number of branches or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines throughout the system. Explaining how to cal­culate these variables is beyond the scope of this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a good dust collection "how-to" book.

Examples of non-through cuts include dadoes and rabbets. Non-through cuts have a higher risk of injury from kickback because the blade guard must be removed. However, the riving knife MUST be installed because it still provides some protection.
IMPORTANT: When making non-through cuts with a dado blade, do not attempt to cut the full depth in one pass. Instead, take multiple light passes to reduce the load on the blade.
A dado blade smaller than 10
will require removal of the riving knife, because the riving knife will be higher than the blade.
A non-through cut is a sawing operation where the blade does not protrude above the top face of the wood stock, as shown in the

Foreign Objects: Nails, staples, dirt, rocks and other foreign objects are often embed­ded in wood. While cutting, these objects can become dislodged and hit the operator, cause kickback, or break the blade, which might then fly apart. Always visually inspect your workpiece for these items. If they can’ be removed, DO NOT cut the workpiece.

Blade Installation
Review this section, even if your saw blade came pre-installed.
To install blade:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Raise arbor all the way up, then remove
blade guard and spreader/riving knife (see
Pages 34 & 37) and table insert.
To reduce risk of injury, always disconnect power to saw before changing blades. Since blade is sharp, use extra care and wear gloves when installing it.
4. While pressing arbor lock, use included arbor
wrench to loosen and remove arbor nut, flange, and blade (see Figure 43). Arbor nut has right-hand threads; rotate counterclock­wise to loosen.
Figure 43. Example of removing table saw
blade.
5. Install new blade, flange, and arbor nut on arbor, as shown in Figure 44, with upper teeth facing front of saw.
3. Push arbor lock (see Figure 42) in and turn
blade until it locks in place.

Blade Guard
Anti-Kickback
Assembly
The term "blade guard" refers to the assembly that consists of the clear polycarbonate shield and dust enclosure, the spreader, and the anti­kickback pawls on each side of the spreader (see Figure 45). Each of these components have important safety functions during the operation of the saw.
Dust Enclosure
Pawl
Clear Shield
Figure 45. Blade guard assembly components.
Guard
The clear polycarbonate guard allows the opera­tor to see the blade cut the workpiece during operation. This guard is designed to lift as the workpiece is pushed into the blade and remain in contact with the workpiece throughout the entire cut.
Spreader
In order to work properly, the spreader cannot be bent or misaligned with the blade. If the spreader gets accidentally bent, take the time to straighten it or just replace it. Using a bent or misaligned spreader will increase the risk of kickback! Refer to Page 67 to check or adjust alignment if necessary.

To install blade guard and spreader:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Install table insert, then raise blade all the
way up.
3. Slide knurled knob out (see Figure 46) and rotate it so it engages upper bracket.
Upper
Bracket
Locking Pin
The guard reduces injury risk by providing a bar­rier around the blade that prevents accidental contact and contains flying wood chips.
To ensure that the guard does its job effectively, the guard must always be in the downward posi­tion against the table during idle operation, and the hinge mechanism must be maintained in good working condition so the guard can freely pivot up and down to accommodate the height of the workpiece and return to the table surface.
Spreader
The spreader is a metal plate that prevents the newly cut kerf of the workpiece from pinching the backside of the blade, causing kickback.
The spreader also acts as a barrier behind the blade to shield hands from being pulled into the blade if a kickback occurs.

The blade guard, when properly installed,
should be set up similarly to Figure 47. It should pivot freely up and down and return to the table in the resting position. It should also swing up high enough to accommodate the workpiece.
6. Adjust flat head cap screws (see Figure 47)
to make sure table insert is flush with table (use a straightedge as a guide).

8. Install blade guard dust port and dust collec-
tion hose, as shown in Figure 49, and attach hose to dust collection port on table saw body (refer to Page 27).
Dust Port
Dust Hose
Figure 49. Dust port and dust collection hose

Anti-Kickback Pawls
The anti-kickback pawls allow the workpiece to travel in only one direction. If the workpiece moves backwards, such as during a kickback, the pawls will dig into the workpiece to slow or stop it.
7. While lifting up on one side of blade guard
and right spreader pawl, place straightedge against blade and spreader, making sure straightedge does not touch a blade tooth.
When properly aligned, spreader/riving
knife will be in "Alignment Zone," shown in Figure 48, and will be parallel with blade.

Disabling Pawls
You might disable the pawls if you are concerned about them scratching a delicate workpiece, or if you believe that they will obstruct a narrow workpiece and cause feeding difficulty or loss of control. Use your best judgment before retracting the pawls, as they are provided for your safety.
We do not recommend disabling pawls dur­ing normal operations unless absolutely necessary. In most situations, disabling pawls will increase your risk of serious per­sonal injury in event of a kickback.
The pawls are sharp and can lacerate fingers or hands. Use caution, and wear leather gloves when handling the pawls to reduce risk of injury.
To disable pawls:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Rotate one or both arresting hooks down-
ward, then place pawls on each of the hooks, as shown in Figure 51.
Enabling Pawls
To enable the pawls, lift up on each pawl and move them outward and down until they both touch the table surface, as shown in Figure 50 on Page 35.
When to Use the Blade Guard
The blade guard assembly MUST always be installed on the saw for all normal through cuts (those where the blade cuts all the way through the thickness of the workpiece). If the blade guard is removed for specific operations, always immediately replace it after those operations are complete.
When Not to Use the Blade Guard
The blade guard cannot be used on any non­through cuts (those in which the blade does not cut all the way through the thickness of the workpiece).
IMPORTANT: Whenever the blade guard cannot be used, the riving knife must be installed.
Sometimes the blade guard or its components can get in the way when cutting very narrow workpieces or other specialized cuts. Because the blade guard is provided to decrease your risk of injury, it should not be used if it gets in the way of making a safe cut. Use good judgment!

Riving Knife
The riving knife works in the same manner as the spreader on the blade guard assembly. It is a metal plate that prevents the newly cut workpiece from pinching the backside of the blade and caus­ing kickback.
The key difference between the spreader and the riving knife is that the riving knife mounts below the blade's highest point of rotation, as shown in Figure 52.
Minimum 1mm
Maximum 5mm
Figure 52. Height difference between riving knife
and blade.
Height Difference
To ensure that riving knife works safely, it MUST be aligned with and correctly adjust­ed to blade. Refer to Page 67 to check or adjust riving knife alignment.
How to Install the Riving Knife
The riving knife is installed in a similar manner to the blade guard and spreader. Refer to Blade Guard Assembly on Page 34 for installation instructions.
When to Use the Riving Knife
Use the riving knife for all non-through cuts made with a standard table saw blade (i.e., dadoes or rabbet cuts, and when using a tenoning jig), or when using a 10" diameter dado blade.
Also, use the riving knife for those special opera­tions where the blade guard or its components get in the way of safe operation, such as with very narrow cuts.
The height difference between the riving knife and the blade allows the workpiece to pass over the blade during non-through cuts (those in which the blade does not cut all the way through the thick­ness of the workpiece).
The riving knife acts as a barrier behind the blade to reduce the risk of hands being pulled into the blade if a kickback occurs.
The riving knife must be kept within the range shown in Figure 53. For that reason, we only recommend using a 10" blade for operations that require use of the riving knife.
Top Distance
Minimum 3mm Maximum 8mm
Bottom Distance
Minimum 3mm Maximum 8mm
When Not to Use the Riving Knife
DO NOT use the riving knife with a dado blade that has a diameter smaller than 10" in diameter. Otherwise, the riving knife height will exceed the blade height and the workpiece will hit the riving knife during the cut, forcing the operator into a dangerous situation of trying to turn the saw off with the workpiece stuck halfway through the cut.
In addition, although it is possible to use the riv­ing knife for through cutting operations, the blade guard assembly offers far more injury protection and risk reduction than the riving knife. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you use the blade guard assembly instead of the riving knife for through cuts.

between riving knife and blade.

Ripping
"Ripping" means cutting with the grain of a natural wood workpiece. In man-made materials such as MDF or plywood, ripping means cutting length­wise.
Serious injury can be caused by kickback. Kickback is a high-speed ejection of stock from table saw toward an operator. The operator or bystanders may be struck by fly­ing stock, or operator’s hands can be pulled into blade during kickback.
To make a rip cut:
1. Review Preventing Kickback on Page 12
and take necessary precautions to reduce likelihood of kickback.
6. Set fence to desired width of cut on scale.
7. Adjust blade height so highest saw tooth pro-
trudes no more than
8. Set up safety devices such as featherboards or other anti-kickback devices, making sure no safety devices are contacting blade.
9. Plug saw into power source, turn it ON, and allow it to reach full speed.
Note: Jointed edge of workpiece must slide
against fence during cutting operation.
10. Use push stick to feed workpiece through
saw blade, as shown in Figure 55, until workpiece is completely beyond saw blade.

2. If using natural wood, joint one long edge of
workpiece on a jointer.
3. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
4. Ensure that blade guard/spreader is installed.
5. Loosen fence knobs (see Figure 54), remove
rip fence, then re-install in vertical position for thicker workpieces, or in horizontal position for thinner workpieces and angled cuts where blade is tilted over fence. Lift fence up and tighten each fence knob.

Crosscutting Miter Cuts
"Crosscutting" means cutting across the grain of a natural wood workpiece, usually with a miter saw. In other man-made materials, such as MDF or plywood, crosscutting means cutting across the width of the workpiece.
To make a crosscut using miter gauge:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Ensure that blade guard/spreader is installed.
3. To avoid kickback, move rip fence aside and
position miter gauge, adjusted to 90°, in a miter slot.
4. Adjust blade height so teeth protrude no
more than
5. Slide miter gauge near blade and adjust
workpiece so blade will cut on waste side of line.

4" above workpiece.
A miter is an angled crosscut. Miters are usually cut in the same manner as crosscuts, using the miter gauge and a predetermined mark on the workpiece.
To perform a miter cut:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Ensure that blade guard/spreader is installed.
3. Determine angle of cut. If angle needs to be
very precise, use a protractor to set miter gauge to blade.
4. Place face of miter gauge against edge of workpiece and place bar across face of workpiece. Use bar as a guide to mark your cut, as shown in Figure 57.
6. Plug in table saw, turn it ON, and allow it to
reach full speed.
7. Hold workpiece firmly against face of miter gauge (as shown in Figure 56), and ease it through blade until workpiece is completely past saw blade.
Figure 56. Typical crosscutting operation.
Figure 57. Example of marking miter line.
5. Place miter gauge back into slot and hold
workpiece firmly against miter gauge body. Slide miter gauge near blade and adjust workpiece so blade will cut on waste side of line.
6. Proceed to make cut in same manner as described in Crosscutting instructions.
Turn saw OFF and allow blade to come to a complete stop before removing cutoff piece. Failure to follow this warning could result in severe lacerations or amputation.

Blade Tilt/Bevel Cuts
Commonly used in furniture joinery, a dado is a straight channel cut in the face of the workpiece. Dadoes are "non-through" cuts that can be made with a dado blade or a standard saw blade. The
Figure
being made with a dado blade.
When the blade tilt collar bolts are properly adjust­ed (as described starting on Page 63), the blade tilt handwheel allows the operator to tilt the blade to the left, between 0° and 45°. This is used most often when cutting bevels, compound miters, or chamfers. Figure 58 shows an example of the blade when tilted to 45°.
Figure 58. Example of blade tilted to 45° for
bevel cutting (blade guard only removed for
clarity.
The Model G0833P can accommodate dado blades up to 10" in diameter. However, you MUST install the included riving knife while using a 10" diameter dado blade, as it provides a barrier behind the blade and reduces the risk of hands being pulled into the blade if kickback occurs.
DO NOT use the riving knife if you install a dado blade smaller than 10" in diameter. Otherwise, the riving knife height will exceed the blade height and the workpiece will hit the riving knife during the cut, forcing the operator into a dangerous situation and trying to turn the saw off with the workpiece stuck halfway through the cut.
Installing a Dado Blade
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Remove table insert, blade guard assembly
or riving knife, arbor nut, flange, and saw blade.
3. Attach and adjust dado blade system accord­ing to dado blade manufacturer’s instruc­tions, and secure with included dado blade flange and arbor nut.

4. Install dado table insert.
DO NOT make through cuts with a dado blade. The extra width of a dado blade will increase the risk of kickback during a through cut. Dado blades are only intended for non-through cuts. Failure to heed this warning could result in serious injury.
Never try to cut a warped board by hold­ing it down against the table. If kickback occurs, your hand could be pulled into the blade, resulting in accidental contact with the rotating blade, causing severe lacera­tions or amputation.

Model G0833P (Mfd. Since 06/17)
Page 43
The Figure below demonstrates the sequential process of making multiple, light cuts that get progressively deeper. The actual number of cuts used should be determined by workpiece hard­ness, total dado depth, and feed rate. In general, if you hear the motor slow down during the cut, you are cutting too deep or feeding too fast.
Cutting Dadoes with a Dado Blade
Because dado blades are much wider than stan­dard blades, they place a greater amount of force against the workpiece when cutting. This addition­al force increases the risk of kickback, requiring the operator to take additional steps when cutting to keep their injury risk at an acceptable level.
Dado blades have a higher risk of kickback than normal blades because their larger size applies stronger forces to the workpiece. This risk increases relative to the depth and width of the cut. To minimize your risk of serious personal injury, ensure that stock is flat and straight, and make multiple light cuts (rather than one deep cut) to achieve the desired cutting depth.
To cut a dado with a dado blade:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Adjust dado blade to desired depth of cut.
3. Adjust distance between fence and inside edge of blade, as shown in Figure 59 on Page 40, to dado length of a workpiece.
If dadoing across workpiece, use miter
gauge and carefully line up desired cut with dado blade. To reduce kickback, DO NOT use fence in combination with miter gauge.
4. Reconnect saw to power source.
5. Turn saw ON. Blade should run smoothly,
with no vibrations.
6. When blade has reached full speed, perform test cut with scrap piece of wood.

Cutting Dadoes with a Standard Blade
A ripping blade (described on Page 38) is typically the best blade to use when cutting dadoes with a standard blade because it removes sawdust very ef ficiently.
To use a standard saw blade to cut dadoes:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Mark width of dado cut on workpiece. Include
marks on edge of workpiece so cut path can be aligned when workpiece is lying on table.
3. Raise blade up to desired depth of cut (depth of dado channel desired).
4. Set saw up for type of cut you need to make, depending on whether it is a rip cut (Page 38) or crosscut (Page 39).

Rabbet Cutting
Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is an L-shaped groove cut in the edge of the workpiece. Rabbets can be cut with either a dado blade or a standard saw blade.
Rabbet cutting on the edge of the workpiece with a dado blade requires a sacrificial fence (see Figure 64). Make the sacrificial fence the same length as the fence and to the fence with screws or clamps, making sure they are all secure and tight. Raise the blade into the sacrificial fence to the height needed.

When using a dado blade, the included dado table insert must be installed and used during rab­beting operations.
Dado blades have a higher risk of kickback than normal blades because their larger size applies stronger forces to the workpiece. This risk increases relative to the depth and width of the cut. To minimize your risk of serious personal injury, ensure that stock is flat and straight, and make multiple light cuts (rather than one deep cut) to achieve the desired cutting depth.

Always use push sticks, featherboards, push paddles and other safety accessories whenever possible to increase safety and control during operations which require that blade guard be removed from saw. ALWAYS replace blade guard after dadoing is complete.
Cutting Rabbets with a Standard Blade
A ripping blade is typically the best blade to use for cutting rabbets when using a standard blade because it removes sawdust very efficiently. (See Page 31 for blade details.) Also, a sacrificial fence is not required when cutting rabbets with a stan­dard blade.
To cut rabbets with a standard blade:
Cutting Rabbets with a Dado Blade
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Adjust dado blade to height needed for rab-
beting operation. When cutting deep rabbets, take more than one pass to reduce risk of kickback.
3. Adjust fence and align workpiece to perform cutting operation, as shown in Figure 65.

Resawing
Resawing operations require proper pro­cedures to avoid serious injury. Extra care must be taken to prevent kickback when resawing. Any tilting or movement of the workpiece away from the fence will cause kickback. Be certain that stock is flat and straight. Failure to follow these warnings could result in serious personal injury.
45
DO NOT place a tall board on edge to per­form a rabbet cut with a standard blade. Workpieces that are too tall to properly sup­port with fence can easily shift during oper­ation and cause kickback. Instead, place stock flat on saw and perform rabbet cut with a dado blade, as instructed on Page 42.
6. Reconnect saw to power source, then per-
form cut.
7. Lay workpiece flat on table, as shown in Figure 67, adjust saw blade height to inter-
sect with first cut, then perform second cut to complete rabbet.

Resawing is the process of cutting a thick piece of stock into one or more thinner pieces. Although resawing can be done with a table saw, we strongly recommend that you use a bandsaw instead.
A bandsaw is the ideal machine for resawing, and resawing with one is fairly easy and safe. A table saw is not intended for resawing, and resawing with one is difficult and dangerous due to the increased risk of kickback from binding and deep cuts, and the increased risk of injury from having to remove the guard.
If you insist on resawing with a table saw, DO NOT do so without using a resaw barrier and wearing a full face shield. The following instructions describe how to build a resaw barrier and add an auxiliary fence to your standard fence, to reduce the risk injury from resawing on a table saw.
Note: To determine the maximum resawing height for this table saw, find the maximum blade height,

then double it and subtract
8".

Making Resaw Barrier
When resawing, the resaw barrier acts in tandem with the rip fence to provide tall support for the workpiece. This minimizes the probability of it binding against the blade and causing kickback.
Making Auxiliary Fence
An auxiliary fence is necessary if you are resawing a workpiece that is taller than it is wide. The fence should be no less than to be resawn.

You may experience kickback during this procedure. Stand to the side of the blade and wear safety glasses and a full face shield to prevent injury when resawing.
To perform resawing operations:
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
2. Remove standard table insert and blade
guard assembly.
3. Install a ripping blade, install riving knife,
lower blade below table surface, then install zero-clearance table insert.
4. Attach auxiliary fence and set it to desired
width.
Note: When determining correct width,
don't forget to account for blade kerf and inaccuracy of fence scale while auxiliary fence is installed.
Figure 72. Ideal resaw workpiece setup.
6. Lower blade completely below table-top, and
slide workpiece over blade to make sure it moves smoothly and fits between resaw bar­rier and fence.
7. Raise blade approximately 1 inch, or close to half the height of workpiece (see Figure 73), whichever is less.

8. Plug in table saw, turn it ON, and use a push
stick or push block to feed workpiece through blade, using a slow and steady feed rate.
Note: We recommend making a series of
light cuts that get progressively deeper, to reduce the chance of stalling the motor.
9. Flip workpiece end-for-end, keeping same
side against fence, and run workpiece through blade.
The danger of kickback increases relative to the depth of a cut. Reduce the risk of kick­back by making multiple passes to achieve the desired depth of cut. Failure to follow these warnings could result in serious per­sonal injury.
10. Repeat Steps 7–9 until blade is close to half
the height of board to be resawn. The ideal
1
completed resaw cut will leave a
8" connec-
tion when resawing is complete as shown in
1
Figure 73 on Page 47. Leaving a
8" connec-
tion will reduce risk of kickback.
11. Turn OFF table saw, then separate parts of
workpiece and hand plane remaining ridge to remove it.
12. When finished resawing, remove resaw bar-
rier and auxiliary fence, then re-install blade guard/spreader or riving knife and standard table insert.
Always use push sticks or push paddles to increase safety and control during opera­tions which require that the blade guard and spreader must be removed from the saw. ALWAYS replace blade guard after resawing is complete.

SECTION 5: SHOP MADE SAFETY
ACCESSORIES
Featherboards
We recommend using a bandsaw for mak-
Easily made from scrap stock, featherboards provide an added degree of protection against kickback, especially when used together with push sticks. They also maintain pressure on the workpiece to keep it against the fence or table while cutting, which makes the operation easier and safer because the cut can be completed with­out the operator’s hands getting near the blade. The angled ends and flexibility of the fingers allow the workpiece to move in only one direction.
Making a Featherboard
This sub-section covers the two basic types of featherboards: 1) Those secured by clamps, or 2) those secured with the miter slot.

To make a featherboard:
1. Cut a hardwood board approximately
to size. The length and width of the board can vary according to your design. Most featherboards are 10"–28" long and 3"–6" wide. Make sure the wood grain runs paral­lel with the length of the featherboard, so the fingers you will create in Step 3 will bend without breaking.
2. Cut a 30º angle at one end of the board.
Model G0833P (Mfd. Since 06/17)

Figure 74. Patterns for featherboards
(top view shown).
IMPORTANT: Cuts made across the grain result in weak fingers that easily break when flexed. When made correctly, the fingers should with­stand flexing from moderate pressure. To test the finger flexibility, push firmly on the ends with your thumb. If the fingers do not flex, they are likely too thick (the cuts are too far apart).
Only Steps 1–3 are required to make a clamp-mounted featherboard. Refer to Page 51 for instructions on clamping.

6. Optional: If cutting long workpieces, it may be beneficial to use a second featherboard attached to fence to keep board firmly against table while feeding.
4. Position fingered edge of featherboard
against edge of workpiece, so that all fingers contact workpiece. Slide featherboard toward blade until first finger is nearly even with end of workpiece, which should be 1" away from blade.
5. Double-check workpiece and featherboard
to ensure they are properly positioned, as described in Step 4. Then secure feather­board to table. Check featherboard by hand to make sure it is tight.
Note: The featherboard should be placed
firmly enough against workpiece to keep it against fence but not so tight that it is difficult to feed workpiece.

Push Sticks
When used correctly, push sticks reduce the risk of injury by keeping hands away from the blade while cutting. In the event of an accident, a push stick can also absorb damage that would have otherwise happened to hands or fingers.
Using a Push Stick
Use push sticks whenever your hands will get within 12" of the blade. To maintain control when cutting large workpieces, start the cut by feeding with your hands then use push sticks to finish the cut, so your hands are not on the end of the workpiece as it passes through the blade.
Feeding: Place the notched end of the push stick against the end of the workpiece (see Figure 81 below), and move the workpiece into the blade with steady downward and forward pressure.
Supporting: A second push stick can be used to keep the workpiece firmly against the fence while cutting. When using a push stick in this manner, only apply pressure before the blade; otherwise, pushing the workpiece against or behind the blade will increase the risk of kickback (see "Push Stick Prohibition Zone" in the Figure below).

Push Blocks
When used correctly, a push block reduces the risk of injury by keeping hands away from the blade while cutting. In the event of an accident, a push block often takes the damage that would have otherwise happened to hands or fingers.
Using a Push Block
A push block can be used in place of or in addi­tion to a push stick for feeding workpieces into the blade. Due to their design, push blocks allow the operator to apply firm downward pressure on the workpiece that could not otherwise be achieved with a push stick.
The push block design on this page can be used in two different ways (see inset Figure below). Typically, the bottom of the push block is used until the end of the workpiece reaches the blade.
The notched end of the push block is then used to push the workpiece the rest of the way through the cut, keeping the operator's hands at a safe distance from the blade. A push stick is often used at the same time in the other hand to sup­port the workpiece during the cut (see Using a Push Stick on previous page).

Outfeed & Support
Tables
One of the best accessories for improving the safety and ease of using a table saw is simply plac­ing a large table (outfeed table) behind the saw to catch the workpiece (see Figure 92). Additionally, another table to the left of the saw (support table) can also help support large workpieces so they can be cut safely and accurately.

Crosscut Sled
A crosscut sled (see Figure 93) is a fantastic way to improve the safety and accuracy of cross­cutting on the table saw. Most expert table saw operators use a crosscut sled when they have to crosscut a large volume of work, because the sled offers substantial protection against kickback when crosscutting.

SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE
Cleaning &
To prevent serious per­sonal injury from shock or accidental startup, always disconnect power from machine before doing any maintenance.
Schedule
For optimum performance from your machine, follow this maintenance schedule and refer to any specific instructions given in this section.
Daily Check:
Loose mounting bolts/arbor nut.
Damaged saw blade.
Worn or damaged wires.
Any other unsafe condition.
Weekly Maintenance:
Clean table surface and miter slot grooves.
Clean and protect cast-iron table.
Clean rip fence.
Protecting
Cleaning the Model G0833P is relatively easy. Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up, use a resin-dissolving cleaner to remove it.
Protect the unpainted cast-iron table by wiping it clean after every use—this ensures moisture from wood dust does not remain on the bare metal surface. Keep the table rust-free with regular applications of products like G96 SLIPIT

Lubrication
It is essential to clean components before lubri­cating them because dust and chips build up on lubricated components and make them hard to move. Simply adding more grease to them will not yield smooth moving components.
Clean the components in this section with an oil/ grease solvent cleaner and shop rags.
Worm Gear, Bull Gear & Leadscrew
Lubrication Type ... T26419 or NLGI#2 Equivalent
Amount ..........................................................Dab
Lubrication Frequency .....................6–12 Months
Clean away any built up grime and debris from the worm gear, bull gear, and leadscrew (see Figures 103 –104) with a wire brush, rags, and mineral spirits. Allow the components to dry, then apply a thin coat of grease to them.
If you thoroughly clean the components in this section before lubricating them, the result will be silky smooth movement when turning the handwheels, which will result in much higher enjoyment on your part!

Miter Slot to Blade
Parallelism
Your table saw will give the best results if the miter slot and the rip fence are adjusted paral­lel to the blade. If either of these are not exactly parallel, your cuts and your finished work will be lower in quality, but more importantly, the risk of kickback will be increased.
3. With end of adjustable square just touching tip, lock square in place. Now, mark car­bide tip with a marker where you made this measurement.
The saw blade is sharp. Use extra care or wear gloves when handling the blade or working near it.

8. Tilt blade to 45° and recheck miter slot-to-
blade parallelism.
— If blade is still parallel with miter slot, no
additional adjustments need to be made.
— If blade is parallel with miter slot at 0° but
not at 45°, one end of table will need to be shimmed higher with metal shim stock. Continue to Step 9.

11. Tighten one table mounting bolt a small
amount and then repeat with the others, tightening each down the same amount. Continue this process with all the bolts, tight­ening them a little each time until they are all secure.
12. Now recheck blade to miter slot at 0° and 45° by repeating Steps 2-5.
— If distance of A and B are equal, continue
to Step 13.
— If distances are not equal, repeat
Steps 9–12.
13. Once miter slot is adjusted to blade, recheck
all measurements and be sure table mount­ing bolts are secure.
Note: If you remove the table in the future,
note the shim placement and reassemble them exactly how they came apart.

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!
— If you cannot straighten it properly,
replace it.
2. Remove fence from saw and place it on a flat
surface.
3. Unscrew front lock nuts and adjustment screws shown in Figure 118 until they are barely threaded into fence flange.
4. Back out rear set screws until they are just threaded into fence flange (see Figure 118).

shown in Figure 121B, fence is mis­aligned. Proceed to Step 7.
7. Remove fence, then alternately loosen and tighten rear fence set screws in equal amounts to adjust rear of fence until it is par­allel with miter slot.
8. Loosen both front lock nuts (see Figure 118 on Page 69). Tighten adjustment screws so
1
they just touch fence tube, back off screws

Belt Tension &
Replacement
The drive belt stretches slightly as the saw is used. Most of the belt stretching will happen dur­ing the first 16 hours of use, but it may continue through continued use. If you notice that the belt is slipping, it will need to be tensioned. If the belt is cracked, frayed, or shows other signs of excessive wear, it will need to be replaced.

Wiring Safety Instructions
SHOCK HAZARD. Working on wiring that is con-
nected to a power source is extremely dangerous. Touching electrified parts will result in personal injury including but not limited to severe burns, electrocution, or death. Disconnect the power from the machine before servicing electrical com­ponents!
MODIFICATIONS. Modifying the wiring beyond what is shown in the diagram may lead to unpre­dictable results, including serious injury or fire. This includes the installation of unapproved after­market parts.
WIRE CONNECTIONS. All connections must be tight to prevent wires from loosening during machine operation. Double-check all wires dis­connected or connected during any wiring task to ensure tight connections.
CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS. You MUST follow the requirements at the beginning of this manual when connecting your machine to a power source.
WIRE/COMPONENT DAMAGE. Damaged wires or components increase the risk of serious per­sonal injury, fire, or machine damage. If you notice that any wires or components are damaged while performing a wiring task, replace those wires or components.
MOTOR WIRING. The motor wiring shown in these diagrams is current at the time of printing but may not match your machine. If you find this to be the case, use the wiring diagram inside the motor junction box.
CAPACITORS/INVERTERS. Some capacitors and power inverters store an electrical charge for up to 10 minutes after being disconnected from the power source. To reduce the risk of being shocked, wait at least this long before working on capacitors.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If you are expe­riencing difficulties understanding the information included in this section, contact our Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.
