Warnings
1. Read and understand the entire owner's manual before attempting assembly or operation.
2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the machine and in this manual. Failure to comply with
all of these warnings may cause serious injury.
3. Replace the warning labels if they become obscured or removed.
4. This Table Saw is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only.
If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a Table Saw, do not use until proper
training and knowledge have been obtained.
5. Do not use this Table Saw for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes, WMH Tool
Group disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result
from that use.
6. Always wear approved safety glasses/face shields while using this Table Saw. Everyday eyeglasses
only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.
7. Before operating this Table Saw, remove tie, rings, watches and other jewelry, and roll sleeves up
past the elbows. Remove all loose clothing and confine long hair. Non-slip footwear or anti-skid floor
strips are recommended. Do not wear gloves.
8. Always use the blade guard on all ''through-sawing'' operations. A through-sawing operation is one in
which the blade cuts completely through the workpiece.
9. Kickback occurs when the workpiece is thrown towards the operator at a high rate of speed. If you do
not have a clear understanding of kickback and how it occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw!
10. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operation.
11. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples
of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
12. Your risk of exposure 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 face or dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
13. Do not operate this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
14. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.
15. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.
16. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with the machine unplugged from the power source.
17. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting
wrenches are removed from the machine before turning it on.
18. Keep safety guards in place at all times when the machine is in use. If removed for maintenance
purposes, use extreme caution and replace the guards immediately.
19. Make sure the Table Saw is firmly secured to the floor or bench before use.
20. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the machine, a guard or other part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting
and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced.

21. Provide for adequate space surrounding work area and non-glare, overhead lighting.
22. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease.
23. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep children away.
24. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.
25. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation and “horse-play” are
careless acts that can result in serious injury.
26. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall into the blade or other moving parts. Do
not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation.
27. Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job for
which it was not designed. The right tool will do the job better and safer.
28. Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be hazardous.
29. Maintain tools with care. Keep saw blades sharp and clean for the best and safest performance.
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
30. Turn off the machine before cleaning. Use a brush or compressed air to remove chips or debris — do
not use your hands.
31. Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur if the machine tips over.
32. Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power off and do not leave the machine until it
comes to a complete stop.
33. Remove loose items and unnecessary work pieces from the area before starting the machine.
Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or
possible machine damage.
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious injury or possibly
even death.
5
The most common accidents among table saw users, according to statistics, can
be linked to kickback, the high-speed expulsion of material from the table that can strike the
operator. Kickback can also result in operator’s hands being pulled into the blade.
Kickback Prevention
Tips to avoid the most common causes of
kickback:
• Make sure the blade splitter is always
aligned with the blade. A workpiece can bind
or stop the flow of the cut if the blade splitter
is misaligned and result in kickback.
• Use the blade splitter during every cut. The
blade splitter maintains the kerf in the
workpiece, which will reduce the chance of
kickback.
• Never attempt freehand cuts. The workpiece
must be fed perfectly parallel with the blade,
otherwise kickback will likely occur. Always
use the rip fence or crosscut fence to
support the workpiece.
• Make sure that the rip fence is parallel with
the blade. If not, the chances of kickback are
very high. Take the time to check and adjust
the rip fence.
• Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime
you stop feeding a workpiece that is in the
middle of a cut, the chance of binding,
resulting in kickback, is greatly increased.
Protection Tips from
Kickback
Kickback can happen even if precautions are
taken to prevent it. Listed below are some tips to
always follow to protect you if kickback DOES
occur:
• Stand to the side of the blade when cutting.
An ejected workpiece usually travels directly
in front of the blade.
• Wear safety glasses or a face shield. Your
eyes and face are the most vulnerable part
of your body.
• Never place your hand behind the blade. If
kickback occurs, your hand will be pulled
into the blade.
• Use a push stick to keep your hands farther
away from the moving blade. If a kickback
occurs, the push stick will most likely take
the damage that your hand would have
received.

Definitions and 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.
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 that allows the
operator to keep hands away from the saw
blade.
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 work piece binds on the saw
blade or between the saw blade and rip fence
(or other fixed object). To minimize or prevent
injury from kickbacks, see the Operating
Instructions 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 splitter,
resulting in a cut that does not protrude through
the top of the workpiece (includes Dado and
rabbet cuts).
The blade guard and splitter must be re-installed
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 used to
safely push the workpiece through the cutting
operation.
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.
Splitter: Metal plate to which the blade guard is
attached that maintains the kerf opening in the
workpiece when performing a cutting operation.
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 a
1/8" of the top of the blade to extend above the
wood stock.

Installing the Blade Guard and Splitter
All models
Referring to Figure 6:
If your table saw came with a back support (C), the
blade guard/splitter installation and alignment will
be facilitated by loosening and sliding the back
support away from the table.
1. Loosen the hex nut (G) on the splitter support
bracket (E) to provide sufficient clearance for
the blade guard and splitter assembly (next
step).
2. Take the blade guard and splitter assembly
and slide the tab of the splitter (B and F) on the
screw of the splitter support bracket (E)
between the flat washer (D) and bracket (E).
3. Tighten the hex nut (G) enough to hold the
blade guard and splitter assembly in place.
Adjustment will be required and is described in the
Adjustment section (see Aligning the Blade Guard
and Splitter).
Figure 6
Aligning the Blade Guard and Splitter
All models
Referring to Figures 7 and 8:
1. Raise the blade guard (B) away from the table.
2. Set a straight edge (E), against the saw blade
(F) on the right side as shown. The anti-kick
pawl (D) needs to be lifted momentarily until
the straight edge is placed in position.
Note: The straight edge needs to rest against
the body of the saw blade and not the saw
teeth.
3. With a 10mm wrench, loosen two hex cap
screws (H) securing the splitter bracket (G) and
adjust the splitter (C) sideways until alignment
with the saw blade (F) is achieved.
4. Tighten the hex cap screws (H).
Make sure the splitter (C) is level with the table and
approximately 1/8" above the table. A 1/8" space
allows the blade guard assembly to tilt to a 45º
angle without contacting the table.
If the splitter level needs adjustment:
Figure 7
5. With two 10mm wrenches, loosen the nut and
screw (J) assembly, adjust the splitter (C) to
1/8" above the table. Tighten the hardware.

table at the front and rear, tighten the screws
(C) and hex nuts (F) with two 14mm wrenches.
Repositioning the Front Rail
Refer to Figure 13.
After the stamped steel extension wing is installed,
the front rail needs to be repositioned to
accommodate the fence when it is positioned over
the extension wing. This is done as follows:
Item F, Fig. 13 shows the initial position of the front
rail.
1. Using a 5mm hex wrench and a 10mm open
end wrench, completely remove the screw,
spacer and lock nut (shown in the inset) that
secure the rail from the two left and far right
mounting holes (A), (B), and (D).
Note: Do not remove mounting hardware from
the third mounting hole (C).
Figure 12
Figure 13
2. Rotate the front rail clockwise (G) until the left
end becomes the right end in front of the
extension wing.
3. Reassemble the three screws, spacers and
lock nuts securing the front rail.
The screws are inserted through the front of
the rail, the spacers are positioned between the
rail and table (or extension), and the lock
washers are fastened to the screw from behind
the lip of the table (or extension).

Adjusting Blade Parallel to Miter Gauge
Slots
When working around the saw
blade, always disconnect the saw from the
power source! Failure to comply may cause
serious injury!
The saw blade was adjusted at the factory to be
parallel to the miter gauge slots and should not
need adjustment. However, if upon inspection it is
determined that adjustment is required, follow the
steps below.
1. Using the handwheel (A, Fig. 19), raise the saw
blade as high as it will go.
Referring to Figure 21:
2. Place the base of a combination square (A)
pressed against the edge of the miter slot (B).
Extend the sliding rule (C) so it just touches the
tooth at the near end of the blade (D), then
tighten the locking screw on the combination
square to secure the sliding rule.
3. Move the square to the far end of the blade (E).
Figure 21
If a gap appears or if the base of the
combination square will not rest against the
edge of the miter slot, adjustment is required
as follows:
Saw blades are sharp. Be
extremely careful when working around them!
Failure to comply may cause serious injury!
Referring to Figure 22:
4. From underneath the table saw, loosen 3 (of 4)
screws (A) that secure the motor to the base.
5. Carefully move the saw blade until the blade is
parallel to the miter gauge slot. Check by
repeating steps 2 and 3. When adjustment is
complete, securely tighten the screws (A).
Replacing the Blade
When installing or changing the
saw blade, always disconnect the saw from the

Miter Gauge Operation
Operate the miter gauge by loosening the lock
knob (A, Fig. 25) and turning the miter body
(B, Fig. 25) to the desired angle.
Note: Always make test cuts. Do not rely solely on
miter gauge indicator marks.
Electrical Connections
This saw has a motor that operates on 120VAC
and is equipped with a power cord that plugs into a
standard grounded 3-prong 120VAC
outlet as shown.
Before hooking up to the power
source, be sure the switch is in the
off position.
If an extension cord is used, select
one with a rating appropriate for the
job from the chart below.

Operating Controls
On/Off Switch – The on/off switch is located on the
front panel of the saw base (C, Fig. 26). To turn the
saw on move the switch to the up position
(F, Fig. 27). To turn the switch off move the switch
to the down position.
Locking Key – When the saw is not in use, the
switch should be locked in the off position. To lock
the switch in the off position, pull out the safety key
(G, Fig. 27). The saw will not start with the key
removed. However, if the key is removed while the
switch is in the on position, it can be turned off
once. The saw will not restart until the key has
been reinserted into the switch.
Overload Protection – This saw is equipped with
a resetable overload relay button (D, Fig. 26). If the
motor shuts off or fails to start due to overloading or
low voltage, turn the switch (C, Fig. 26) to the off
position and let the motor cool down for at least five
minutes. After the motor has cooled down, push the
reset button (D, Fig. 26) to reset the overload
device. The saw should now start when the switch
is returned to the on position.
Blade Height/Tilt Handwheel – The handwheel
located on the front of the saw (A, Fig. 26) sets the
blade height and tilt.
To raise or lower the blade, simply turn the hand-
Figure 26

wheel (A, Fig. 26) clockwise or counterclockwise.
To tilt the blade:
1. Press the handwheel in.
2. Loosen the blade tilt lock knob (B, Fig. 26) by
turning counterclockwise.
3. Still pressing the handwheel in, turn clockwise
or counterclockwise to set the blade between
0º (blade 90º perpendicular to table) and 45º
(left tilt).
When the desired blade angle is set,
4. Continue holding the handwheel (A, Fig. 26) in
until the lock knob (B, Fig. 26) is tightened.
21
Operations
Before turning the saw on,
make sure that the table is free of tools,
hardware and debris. These items can
become projectiles and cause serious injury.
Table Saws
Familiarize yourself with the location and
operation of all controls and adjustments and the
use of accessories such as the miter gauge and
rip fence.
Kickbacks
Serious injury can result from kickbacks which
occur when a work piece binds on the saw blade
or binds between the saw blade and rip fence or
other fixed object. This binding can cause the
work piece to lift up and be thrown toward the
operator.
Listed below are conditions, which can cause
kickbacks:
Confining the cutoff piece when crosscutting
or ripping.
Releasing the work piece before completing
the operation or not pushing the work piece
all the way past the saw blade.
Not using the splitter when ripping or not
maintaining alignment of the splitter with the
saw blade.
Using a dull saw blade.
Not maintaining alignment of the rip fence so
that it tends to angle toward rather than
away from the saw blade front to back.
Applying feed force when ripping to the
cutoff (free) section of the work piece
instead of the section between the saw
blade and fence.
As the machine receives use, the operation
of the anti-kickback pawls should be
checked periodically (Figure 26). If the pawls
do not stop the reverse motion of a
workpiece, resharpen all the points.
Where possible, keep your face and body
out of line with potential kickbacks including
when starting or stopping the machine.
Figure 28
Dull, badly set, improper, or improperly filed
cutting tools and cutting tools with gum or resin
adhering to them can cause accidents. Never
use a cracked saw blade. The use of a sharp,
well maintained, and correct cutting tool for the
operation will help to avoid injuries.
Support the work properly and hold it firmly
against the gauge or fence. Use a push stick or
push block when ripping short, narrow (6" width
or less), or thin work. Use a push block or miter
gauge hold-down when dadoing or molding.
For increased safety in crosscutting, use an
auxiliary wood facing (Figure 29) attached to the
miter gauge using the holes provided in the
gauge.
Ripping wood that is twisted (not flat), or
does not have a straight edge, or a twisted
grain.
To minimize or prevent injury from kickbacks:
Avoid conditions listed above.
Wear a safety face shield, goggles, or
glasses.
Do not use the miter gauge and rip fence in
the same operation unless provision is made
by use of a facing board (auxiliary block) on
the fence so as to allow the cutoff section of
the workpiece to come free before the next
cut is started (see Figure 35).
Figure 29
Never use the fence as a length stop when
crosscutting. Do not hold or touch the free end
or cutoff section of a workpiece. On through-
22
sawing operations, the cutoff section must NOT
be confined.
Always keep your hands out of the line of the
saw blade and never reach back of the cutting
blade with either hand to hold the workpiece.
Bevel ripping cuts should always be made with
the fence on the right side of the saw blade so
that the blade tilts away from the fence and
minimizes the possibility of the work binding and
the resulting kickback.
Rip Sawing
Ripping is where the work piece is fed with the
grain into the saw blade using the fence as a
guide and a positioning device to ensure the
desired width of cut (Figure 30).
Figure 31
The rip fence (A, Fig. 31) should be set for the
width of the cut (C, Fig. 31) by using the scale
on the front rail, or by measuring the distance
between the blade (B) and fence (A). Stand out
of line with the saw blade and workpiece to
avoid sawdust and splinters coming off the blade
or a kickback, if one should occur.
If the work piece does not have a straight edge,
nail an auxiliary straight edged board on it to
provide one against the fence. To cut properly,
the board must make good contact with the
table. If it is warped, turn the hollow side down.
Figure 30
Before starting a ripping cut,
be sure the fence is clamped securely and
aligned properly.
Never rip freehand or use the miter gauge in
combination with the fence.
Never rip workpieces shorter than the saw
blade diameter.
Never reach behind the blade with either
hand to hold down or remove the cutoff
piece with the saw blade rotating.
Always use the blade guard, splitter and antikickback pawls. Make sure the splitter is
properly aligned. When wood is cut along the
grain, the kerf tends to close and bind on the
blade and kickbacks can occur.
Note: A caution decal is installed on the guard
and splitter assembly warning of the hazard of
misalignment.
In ripping, use one hand to hold the board down
against the fence or fixture, and the other to
push it into the blade between the blade and the
fence. If the workpiece is narrower than 6" use a
push stick or push block to push it through
between the fence and saw blade (Figure 32).
Never push in a location such that the pushing
hand is in line with the blade. Move the hand
serving as a hold-down a safe distance from the
blade as the cut nears completion. For very
narrow ripping where a push stick cannot be
used, use a push block or auxiliary fence.
Always push the workpiece completely past the
blade at the end of a cut to minimize the
possibility of a kickback.
23
Figure 32
When ripping long boards, use a support at the
front of the table, such as a roller stand, and a
support or "tailman" at the rear as shown in
Figure 33.
Have the blade extend about 1/8" above the top
of the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this
point can be hazardous.
Crosscutting should never be done freehand nor
should the fence be used as an end stop unless
an auxiliary block is clamped to the front of the
blade area such that the cutoff piece comes free
of the block before cutting starts (Figure 35).
Figure 33
Crosscutting
Crosscutting is where the workpiece (A, Fig. 34)
is fed cross grain into the saw blade using the
miter gauge (B, Fig. 34) to support and position
the workpiece.
To improve the effectiveness of the miter gauge
in crosscutting, mount an auxiliary wooden
extension face (C, Fig, 34) with a glued-on strip
of sandpaper (D, Fig. 34) to the miter gauge.
Length stops should not be used on the free end
of the workpiece in the cutoff area.
Do not crosscut workpieces shorter than 6".
Before starting a cut, be sure the miter gauge is
securely clamped at the desired angle. Hold the
workpiece firmly against the table and back
against the miter gauge. Always use the saw
guard and splitter and make sure the splitter is
properly aligned.
For 90 degree crosscutting, most operators
prefer to use the left-hand miter gauge slot.
When using it in this position, hold the workpiece
against the gauge with the left hand and use the
right hand to advance the workpiece. When
using the right hand slot for miter and compound
crosscutting so that the blade tilts away from the
gauge, the hand positions are reversed.
When using the miter gauge, the workpiece
must be held firmly and advanced smoothly at a
slow rate. If the workpiece is not held firmly, it
can vibrate causing it to bind on the blade and
dull the saw teeth.
Figure 35
Provide auxiliary support for any workpiece
extending beyond the table top with a tendency
to sag and lift up off the table.
Have the blade extend about 1/8" above the top
Figure 34
of the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this
point can be hazardous.
24
Bevel and Miter Operations
Bevel Cut – A bevel cut is a special type of
operation where the saw blade is tilted at an
angle less than 90 degrees to the table top
(Figure 36). Operations are performed in the
same manner as ripping or crosscutting except
the fence or miter gauge should be used on the
right-hand side of the saw blade to provide
added safety in avoiding a binding action
between the saw blade and the table top. When
beveling with the miter gauge, the workpiece
must be held firmly to prevent creeping.
Figure 36
Crosscut – Crosscuts made at an angle to the edge of the workpiece are called miters (Figure 37). Set the miter gauge at the required angle, lock the miter gauge, and make the cut the same as a normal crosscut except the workpiece must be held extra firmly to prevent creeping.
Note: When making compound miters (with
blade tilted) use the miter gauge in the right
hand slot to provide more hand clearance and
safety.
Have the blade extend only 1/8" above the top of
the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this
point can be hazardous.
Dado Cutting – Dadoing is cutting a wide groove into a workpiece or cutting a rabbet along the edge of a workpiece. A dado insert, shown in Figure 38, is necessary for this type of operation.
Do not use the standard table
insert for dadoing operations.
Figure 38
The process of cutting 1/8" to 1/2" grooves in
workpieces is accomplished by the use of a
stacked dado blade set or an adjustable type
blade mounted on the saw arbor. By using
various combinations of the stacked dado
blades, or properly setting the dial on an
adjustable blade, an accurate width dado can be
made. This is very useful for shelving, making
joints, tenoning, etc. The guard, splitter, and
anti-kickback pawls supplied with the saw
should be used for all cutting operations where
they can be used. When performing operations
where the guard can not be used, as in some
dadoing operations, alternative safety
precautions should be taken. These include
push sticks, feather boards, filler pieces, fixtures,
jigs and any other appropriate device that can
be utilized to keep operator's hands away from
the blade. Upon completion of the operation
requiring removal of the guard, the entire guard
assembly must be placed back on the machine
in its proper working order.
Never use a dado head in a
tilted position. Never operate the saw without
the blade guard, splitter and anti-kickback
pawls for operations where they can be
used.
Dust Collection
If your saw is equipped with a dust shroud, a
dust collection or vacuum system (not included)
should be used during operation. The port on
the dust shroud can accommodate 2.5-inch or
4-inch hoses (Figure 39).
The dust shroud should be checked and cleaned
often to remove dust and chips in order to
prevent blockage from buildup.
Figure 37
25
Figure 39
Safety Devices
Feather Board
The feather board (Figure 40) should be made
of straight grain hardwood approximately 1" thick
and 4" to 8" wide depending on the size of the
machine. The length is developed in accordance
with intended use. Feather boards can be
fastened to the table or rip fence by use of
C-clamps. If this method of fastening is used,
provide slots in the feather board for adjustment.
(The illustration shows a method of attaching
and use of the feather board as a vertical comb.
The horizontal application is essentially the
same except that the attachment is to the table
top.)
Push Stick
A push stick is provided with this saw and
should be used as an added level of safety for
the operator.
Filler Piece
A filler piece (Figure 41) is necessary for narrow
ripping and permits the blade guard to remain on
the machine. It also provides space for the safe
use of a push stick.
Figure 40
Figure 41 – Filler Piece
Maintenance
Always disconnect power to
the machine before performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may result in serious
personal injury.
