For the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece.
The riving knife and anti-kickback pawls are ineffective when cutting workpieces that are too short to be engaged with the riving knife and anti­kickback pawls. Under these conditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and anti­kickback pawls.
Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife.
For the riving knife to function properly, the saw blade diameter must match the appropriate riving knife and the body of the saw blade must be thinner than the thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.

Kickback causes and related warnings
Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece due to a pinched, jammed saw blade or misaligned line of cut in the workpiece with respect to the saw blade or when a part of the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other fixed object.
Most frequently during kickback, the workpiece is lifted from the table by the rear portion of the saw blade and is propelled towards the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence.
the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with the saw blade.
Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or to support the workpiece.
contact with the saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.
Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade.
Pressing the workpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.
Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade.
A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the saw blade and create kickback.
Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non­through cuts such as rabbeting, dadoing or

4.0 Table Saw terminology

Arbor: Metal shaft that connects the drive
mechanism to the blade.
Bevel Edge Cut: Tilt of the saw arbor and blade
between 0° and 45° to perform an angled cutting operation.
Blade Guard: Mechanism mounted over the saw
blade to prevent accidental contact with the cutting edge.
Crosscut: Sawing operation in which the miter
gauge is used to cut across the grain of the workpiece.
Dado Blade: Blade(s) used for cutting grooves and
rabbets. A stacked dado set can be used for wider grooves.
Dado Cut: Flat bottomed groove in the face of the
workpiece made with a dado blade.
Featherboard: Device used to keep a board
against the rip fence or table, allowing the operator to keep hands away from saw blade.
Freehand: Moving the workpiece into the blade
using only the hands, without a fixed positioning device. (This is a dangerous, unacceptable procedure on a table saw – always use appropriate devices to feed the workpiece through the saw blade during cutting operations.)
Kerf: The resulting cut or gap made by a saw
blade.
Kickback: An event in which the workpiece is lifted
up and thrown back toward an operator, caused when a workpiece binds on the saw blade or between the blade and rip fence (or other fixed object). To minimize or prevent injury from
kickbacks, see the Operations section. Miter Gauge: A component that controls the
workpiece movement while performing a crosscut of various angles.
Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation that
requires the removal of the blade guard and standard riving knife, resulting in a cut that does not protrude through the top of the workpiece (includes dado and rabbet cuts).
The blade guard and riving knife must be re­installed after performing a non-through cut to avoid accidental contact with the saw blade during operation.
Parallel: Position of the rip fence equal in distance
at every point to the side face of the saw blade.
Perpendicular: 90° (right angle) intersection or
position of the vertical and horizontal planes such as the position of the saw blade (vertical) to the table surface (horizontal).
Push Board/Push Stick: An instrument, usually of
wood or plastic, used to safely push the workpiece through the cutting operation by keeping the operator’s hands at a distance.
Rabbet: A cutting operation that creates an
L-shaped channel along the edge of the board.
Rip Cut: A cut made along the grain of the
workpiece.
Riving Knife: A metal plate fixed relative to the
blade, which moves with the blade as cutting depth is adjusted. Thus, it maintains not only the kerf opening in the workpiece, but also the knife-to-
blade distance. A low-profile riving knife sits lower
than the top edge of the blade, for making a non­through cut.
Splitter (Spreader): A stationary metal plate to
which the blade guard is attached that maintains the kerf opening in the workpiece during a cutting operation. (JET table saws use the superior Riving Knife system instead.)
Standard Kerf: 1/8" gap made with a standard
blade.
Straightedge: A tool used to check that a surface
is flat or parallel.
Through Sawing: A sawing operation in which the
workpiece thickness is completely sawn through. Proper blade height usually allows 1/8" of the top of blade to extend above the wood stock. Keep the blade guard down, the anti-kickback pawls down, and the riving knife in place over the blade.

6.2 Tools required for assembly

Hex (Allen) wrenches: 4, 5, 6mm Open end wrenches: 10, 13mm Cross point (Phillips) screwdriver Straight edge Rubber mallet (or hammer with block of wood) Level
Note: A ratchet wrench with sockets will speed assembly time. Additional tools may be needed for adjustments and/or assembly of fence and rails.
The main saw unit is heavy;
use an assistant or a hoist mechanism when moving or turning it right side up.

6.3 Unpacking and cleanup

1. Remove all contents from shipping carton and
from inside of saw body. Do not discard carton or packing material until saw is assembled and running satisfactorily.
2. Inspect contents for shipping damage. Report
damage, if any, to your distributor.
3. Compare contents of shipping carton with the
contents list in this manual. Report shortages, if any, to your distributor. Check machine first to see if parts have been pre-installed.
4. Slide table saw off pallet onto cardboard or
pad to prevent scratching table surface. Keep saw upside down.
Install both screws first, then tighten with 5mm hex wrench. (Note: If more clearance is
needed to insert a screw, see sect. 6.6 to
temporarily mount a handwheel and tilt the trunnion out of the way.)
2. Install four levelers with hex nuts (HP6/14).
3. Turn saw right-side up and allow the feet to adjust to floor surface. Place a level on table, and adjust the levelers as needed. Tighten hex nuts up against leg with 10mm wrench to secure setting.

6.5 Extension wings

See Figure 6-4.
Wings are available in cast iron or stamped steel. Make sure mating surfaces are clean and free of burrs.
Attach each extension wing to saw table using four screws and washers (HP7/13). Do not fully tighten yet.
Assembly Tip: If you are doing this without an
assistant, lift extension wing perpendicular to table edge. Install a center screw and washer, and make snug. Then pivot wing parallel to saw table to insert remaining three screws.
Figure 6-3

6.4 Installing legs and levelers

See Figure 6-3.
1. Mount legs (K) to cabinet using two M8 screws with washers (HP8/13) into each leg as shown.
Figure 6-4

6.5.1 Leveling extension wings

Note: The following instructions show assembly of
the cast wings. The stamped steel wings may have
a tendency to sag until rails are installed, and may need further leveling adjustments during rail installation.
Level extension wings to saw table using a straight edge. A metal straight edge is ideal, though a carefully jointed board may also be used.
Two methods are described below: one using a rubber mallet, the other using clamps on the table edges.
12
Method 1 (Figure 6-5):
1. Shift extension wing so it is slightly above saw table surface.
2. Begin by tightening the screws beneath extension wing that secure it to saw table. Tighten these just enough to hold wing in place but loose enough to change wing height by tapping on it. (Tap with rubber mallet, or hammer over a flat block of wood. Never use a steel-faced hammer directly on the tables.)
3. Lay straight edge across saw table and extension wing, extending it out past edge of wing as shown in Figure 6-5.
4. Move straight edge to several places along wing, as you continue to nudge wing level with saw table. Also brush your fingertips over the seam to ensure the transition feels smooth. As each area of wing becomes flush with table, tighten screw under that area. Continue until
all screws are fully tightened. NOTE: Make
sure front edge of wing remains flush with front edge of saw table.
5. Repeat above steps for opposite extension wing.

6.6 Handwheels

See Figure 6-4.
Note: The two handwheels look identical but have different sized mounting holes.
1. On front of table saw, slide spacer (HP4, Figure 6-4) onto shaft followed by handwheel with large mounting hole (C). The flat side of handwheel hole aligns with flat side on shaft.
2. Fasten in place by screwing in lock knob (HP3).
Figure 6-5: leveling extension wings, method 1
Method 2 (Figure 6-6):
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 from Method 1.
2. Position clamps over seam, one at front, one at back of table. Use a pad or flat block beneath clamp jaw to prevent damage to table surface. See Figure 6-6.
3. Tighten both clamps to align front and back edges of tables. Make sure front edge of wing remains flush with front edge of saw table.
4. Tighten screws incrementally, and position straight edge at various places across seam, especially checking at the center. Make further adjustments as needed.
5. Fully tighten screws.
3. Slide handwheel with small mounting hole (D) onto shaft on right side of table saw, aligning flat side of hole with flat side on shaft.
4. Secure handwheel with lock washer and screw (HP9), using 4mm hex wrench.

6.7 Motor cover

See Figure 6-7.
Install motor cover (J) with four pan head screws and washers (HP12/14).
Figure 6-7

6.8 Rails and fence

To install front and rear rails and fence, consult manual M-725005 which accompanies your fence
assembly, then proceed to sect. 6.11.

6.9 Wood extension table

To install the optional wood table, consult manual M-725005, which accompanies your fence
assembly, then proceed to sect. 6.11.

6.10 Switch bracket

See Figure 6-8.
Use two screws with washers (HP-11) to secure switch bracket to front rail.
Figure 6-8

6.11 Dust collection

Use of a dust collection system (not provided) is strongly recommended during table saw operation. It will help keep the shop clean, as well as prevent potential health issues due to dust inhalation.
A dust collection system, with minimum capacity of 400 CFM (cubic feet per minute) should be connected to the port via a 4-inch diameter hose (not included) and secured with a hose clamp.
Note: Dryer vent hose is not acceptable for this purpose.
An extensive line of JET dust collectors is available; contact your dealer or visit our website for information.
Figure 6-9
5. Slide tabs of riving knife (D) into slot between the two blocks, all the way down onto mounting stud.
6. Push down lever (A) to secure riving knife.
The clamping block (Figure 6-9) is adjusted at the factory and no further adjustment of blade guard and riving knife assembly should be necessary. However, proper alignment is very important.
Before operating table saw, read sect. 8.3, Riving knife alignment, to verify and follow the adjustment
procedure if necessary.

6.13 Anti-kickback pawls

See Figures 6-10 and 6-11.
1. Push and hold button (D) on opposite side of the head to release the catch pin. Mount pawl assembly straight down, in the location shown in Figure 10.
2. Pivot head and push it downward (Figure 6-11)
until there is an audible click. Make sure you
hear the click to verify that pawl assembly is secure.

6.12 Riving knife

See Figure 6-9.
1. Disconnect machine from power source.
2. Set saw blade to 90° (vertical) position and
raise it all the way (refer to sect. 8.1).
3. Remove table insert by rotating locking knob (shown at M, Figure 6-14) and lift up insert using finger hole.
Use care when working around
an installed blade.
4. Through the saw table opening, pull up lever (A, Figure 6-9). The floating clamp block (B) will move away from the fixed block (C), leaving a gap.
