To properly understand all safety 9.
warnings, be familiar with the following safety terms and equipment:
Featherboard – A block with “ngers“ a.
that hold the workpiece against the
fence while sawing.
SKU 66630 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 4
Kickback – A sudden reaction to a h.
pinched, bound, or misaligned blade,
causing an uncontrolled workpiece
to lift up and out of the saw toward
the operator.
Spreader – A metal plate that fol-i.
lows the saw blade to keep the kerf
(gap) from closing on the saw blade.
Spreaders, except riving knives,
must be aligned to the blade after
blade adjustment to prevent binding.
Riving Knife – A spreader mounted j.
on the same mechanism as the
blade. Generally more effective than
simple spreaders.
As noted previously, 10. Kickback is a
sudden reaction to a pinched, bound,
or misaligned blade, causing an un-
Page 5
controlled workpiece to lift up and out
of the saw toward the operator.
Kickback is usually a result of tool
misuse and can be limited or avoided
by following the precautions below:
movable guard does not move freely
and close instantly. Make sure any
movable guard does not touch the
blade in all angles, depths of cut, and
positions.
Fence must be completely parallel •
to the saw blade.
Workpiece must be free from aws •
(such as loose knots) and from
foreign objects (such as nails and
screws).
Support large workpieces along •
their entire length. Large workpieces tend to bend, grabbing the blade.
Do not use a dull, damaged, or •
pitch-covered blade.
Do not use fence as a guide when •
crosscutting.
Do not ripcut a twisted or warped •
workpiece, or workpiece without
straight edge to guide along fence.
Maintain control of the workpiece. •
Do not allow the workpiece to rest
against the moving blade without
holding onto it.
If the blade binds or a cut is inter-•
rupted, turn off the power switch
and hold the workpiece still until the
blade stops. Correct the cause of
blade binding before proceeding.
Before continuing an unnished •
cut, center the blade in the pre-cut
kerf and check that the saw teeth
are not engaged into the workpiece
before turning on the saw.
Push the wood stock past the blade •
prior to release.
Check guards for proper operation 11.

examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints
• Crystalline silica from bricks and ce-
ment or other masonry products
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do
this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in
a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially
designed to lter out microscopic
particles. (California Health & Safety
Code § 25249.5, et seq.)
WARNING: Handling the cord on 21.

then have regular medical checkups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused or worsened from
use. Pregnant women or people
who have impaired blood circulation
to the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or
Raynaud’s Disease should not use
this tool. If you feel any medical or
physical symptoms related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness, and
white or blue ngers), seek medical
advice as soon as possible.
Do not smoke during use. Nico-2.
tine reduces the blood supply to the
hands and ngers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
Wear suitable gloves to reduce the 3.

Use tools with the lowest vibration 4.
when there is a choice between different processes.
Include vibration-free periods each 5.
day of work.
Grip tool as lightly as possible (while 6.

abnormal vibration occurs, stop use
immediately.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK
AND DEATH FROM
INCORRECT GROUNDING
WIRE CONNECTION
READ AND FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS:
Grounded Tools: Tools with Three
Prong Plugs
In the event of a malfunction or 1.
breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This tool is equipped with an
electric cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided – if it 2.
will not t the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualied electri-
cian.
Improper connection of the equip-3.
ment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with or
without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a
live terminal.
Check with a qualied electrician or 4.

3-pole receptacles that accept the
tool’s plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn 6.
cord immediately.
7. This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like
the one illustrated above in 125 V~
3-Prong Plug and Outlet. The tool
has a grounding plug that looks like
the plug illustrated above in 125 V~
3-Prong Plug and Outlet.
Double Insulated Tools: Tools
with Two Prong Plugs
To reduce the risk of electric shock, 1.
double insulated equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not t fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not t, contact
a qualied electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug
in any way.
Double insulated tools may be used 2.
in either of the 120 volt outlets shown
in the preceding illustration. (See
Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)
The outlet must be properly installed 8.
and grounded in accordance with all
codes and ordinances.
Do not use an adapter to connect this 9.
tool to a different outlet.

should be square with the Saw Table.
WARNING! 8. The Bevel Lock Knob
must be tightened during all cutting
operations.
To raise the Blade, turn the Hand-2.
wheel (29) counterclockwise.
To lower the Blade, turn the Hand-3.
wheel clockwise.
To adjust the Blade’s angle, loosen 4.

Miter Gauge (100) Operation and
Adjustment
When straight cross-cutting (the 1.
Blade is set at 90° to the Table) the
Miter Gauge can be used in either

When bevel cross-cutting (the Blade 2.
is tilted away) only use the Miter
Gauge in the right table slot where
the Blade is titled away from the Miter
Gauge and your hands.
4. A Draw Pole (132) locks the Fence
in place. To adjust the Draw Pole,
loosen the Bolt (20) that connects the
Draw Pole to the Fence.
5. WARNING! The Fence must be
properly aligned to the gauge slot to
prevent kickback during ripping.
6. To check for proper alignment, position the Fence next to the gauge

creating a tripping hazard or exposing
the power cord to possible damage.
The power cord must reach the work
area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.
Secure loose work pieces using a 3.
vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement while working.
There must not be hazardous ob-4.

depth, or you saw into a knot or nail.
To avoid kickback, do the following:
Use the correct blade depth setting. 2.
The top blade teeth should clear the
workpiece by 1/8” to 1/4”.
Inspect the workpiece for knots or 3.
nails before beginning a cut. Knock
out any loose knots with a hammer
and do not saw into loose knot or
nail.
