BEFORE USINGTHE TABLE SAW WiTH LASER LiNE
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE YOUR TABLE SAW UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY
ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS
1. ALWAYS USE THE SAW BLADE GUARD, splitter and anti-kickback pawls for every
operation for which they can be used, including through-sawing. Through-sawing
operations are those in which the blade cuts completely through the workpiece when
ripping or cross-cutting.
2. ALWAYS HOLD WORK FIRMLY against the mitre gauge or rip fence.
3. USE A PUSH STICK when required, especially when ripping narrow stock. Refer to
ripping applications in the instruction manual where the push stick is covered in detail. A
pattern for making your own push stick is included.
4. NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION "FREE HAND"= this means using only your
hands to support or guide the workpiece. Always use either the rip fence or the
mitre gauge to position and guide the workpiece.
]
WARNING: FREE HAND CUTTING IS THE MAJOR CAUSE OF KICK=BACK &
FINGER/HAND AMPUTATIONS.
5. NEVER STAND or have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.
Keep your hands out of the saw blade path.
6. NEVER REACH behind or over the table saw for any reason.
7. REMOVE the rip fence when cross cutting.
8. DO NOT USE a moulding head with this saw.
9. FEED WORK iNTO THE BLADE against the direction of rotation only.
10. NEVER use the rip fence as a cut-off gauge when cross-cutting.
11. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAW BLADE without first turning the table
saw OFF and unplugging the table saw. Immediately, turn the power switch OFF to
prevent motor damage.
12. PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to the rear and the sides of the work table for long or
wide workpieces.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Page 6
13.AVOID KICKBACKS (workthrown back towards you) by keeping the blade sharp, the
ripfence parallel to the saw blade and by keeping the splitter, anti-kickback pawlsand
guards in place, aligned and functioning. Do not releaseworkpiece before it haspassed
beyond the saw blade's cuttingarc. Do not rippieces that aretwisted, warped or that do
not have a straight edge to guide it along the rip fence.
14.AVOIDAWKWARD OPERATIONS and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause
your hand to move into the saw blade.
15.NEVER USE SOLVENTS to clean plastic parts. Solvents could possibly dissolveor
otherwise damage plasticparts. Only a soft dampcloth should be usedto clean plastic
parts.
16.MOUNTyour table saw on a work bench or stand before performing any cutting
operations. Referto ASSEMBLY instructions.
17.NEVER CUT METALS or materials which may make hazardous dust.
18.ALWAYS USE INWELL VENTILATED AREA. Removesawdust frequently. Clean out
sawdust from the interior of the saw to prevent a potential fire hazard.
19.NEVER LEAVE THE SAW runningunattended. Do not leavethe work area until the saw
comes to a complete stop.
20.Forproper operation follow the instructions in this Instruction Manual (Page 23).
Failure to provide sawdustfall-through and removal hole will cause sawdust to build up
in the motor area resulting in a fire hazard and potential motordamage.

GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This toot is
equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment grounding 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 will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by an electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in electric
shock. The conductor with the green insulation (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 qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand
the grounding instructions, or if you are not sure if the toot is properly grounded.
USE ONLY EXTENSION CORDS that have
Fig. A
3-pronged plugs. Only plug into 3-pronged outlets
that accept the tool's plug as shown in Fig. A.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cords
immediately.

GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
I ARNING: THIS TABLE SAW IS FOR INDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT EXPOSE TO
RAINOR USE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below
shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
MINIMUM GAUGE FOR EXTENSION CORDS (AWG)
(when using 120 V only)
Ampere Rating Total length of cord in feet
More Than Not More Than 25' 50' 100' 150'
0 6 18' 16' 16' 14'
6 10 18' 16' 14' 12'
10 12 16' 16' 14' 12'
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition. Always replace a
damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it. Protect
your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This circuit must not be tess than a #12 wire
with a 20 A time tag fuse or a #14 wire with a 15 A time lag fuse. Before connecting the
motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current
is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower
voltage will damage the motor.
I ARNING: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE
OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.

lul
Before using the table saw, polish the tabletop with an automotive polishing wax to keep it
clean and make it easier to slide the workpiece.
There are two basic types of table saw cuts: ripping and crosscutting, in general, ripping
is cutting with the grain along the length of the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting either
across the width or across the grain of the workpiece. However, with man-made materials
this distinction can be difficult to make. Therefore, cutting a piece of material to a different
width is ripping and cutting across the short dimension is crosscutting. Neither ripping nor
crosscutting may be done safely freehand. Ripping requires the use of the rip fence and
crosscutting requires the use of the mitre gauge. Never use the rip fence and the mitre
gauge at the same time during the cutting operation.
WARNING: Never use more than one rip fence or a combiration of a mitre gauge and
a rip fence at the same time during a cutting operation.
Page 27
RiPPiNG
CAUTION! To prevent serious injury:
e Do not allow frequent use of your table saw to cause complacency and careless
mistakes. Remember that even a careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a
severe injury.
• Keep both hands away from the blade and the path of the blade.
• The workpiece must have a straight edge against the fence and must not be warped,
1. Remove the mitre gauge and secure the rip fence to the table.
2. Adjust the blade so it is about 1/8 in. higher than the workpiece.
3. Hold the workpiece flat on the tabletop and against the rip fence. Keep the workpiece
about 1" away from the front of the blade.
4. Turn the saw ON and allow the blade to
come to full speed.
5. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade
by pushing forward only on the workpiece
section (1) that will pass between the
blade and the fence (Fig. 32).
6. Keep your thumbs off the tabletop. Always
hold the workpiece when the blade is
truning. Do not let go of it to reach for the
push stick. When both of your thumbs
touch the front edge of the table (2), finish
Fig. 33
the cut with a push stick (3). Make a push
stick using the pattern on page 35 of this
manual.
7. The push stick should always be used
during ripping operations.
8. Continue pushing the workpiece with the
push stick until it passes the blade guard
1 2
and clears the rear of the table.
.
Never pull the workpiece back while the blade is turning. Turn the switch OFF and
unplug the power cord. When the blade completely stops, raise the anti-kickback fingers
on each side of the splitter if necessary and slide the workpiece out.
WARNING!
e DO NOT TRY TO PULL THE WORKPIECE BACK WHILE THE BLADE IS STILL
TURNING. TURN THE SWITCH OFF AND CAREFULLY SLIDE THE
WORKPIECE OUT WHEN THE BLADE HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED.
e NEVER PERFORM ANY OPERATION FREEHAND.
e AVOID KICKBACK BY KEEPING BLADES SHARP, THE RIP FENCE PARALLEL
TO THE SAW BLADE, AND BY KEEPING THE SPLITTER,
ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS AND GUARDS IN PLACE, ALIGNED AND
FUNCTIONING.
Page 28
BEVEL RIPPING
This operation isthe same as ripping except the bevel angle is set to an angle other
than 0°.
CAUTION! CUT ONLY WITH THE WORKPIECE AND THE RIP FENCE ON THE
RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE BLADE.
RIPPING SMALL PIECES
CAUTION! AVOID INJURY RESULTING FROM BLADE CONTACT. NEVER MAKE
THROUGH-SAW CUTS NARROWER THAN W' WIDE.
1. It is unsafe to rip small pieces. It is not safe to put your hands close to the blade. To
ensure your safety, rip the small piece from a larger piece.
2. When a small width is to be ripped and the hand cannot be safely put between the
blade and the rip fence, use one or more push sticks. Use the push sticks to hold the
workpiece against the table top and fence and push the workpiece fully past the blade
(Fig. 33).
NOTE: A pattern for making your own push sticks is shown on page 35 of this manual.
CROSSCUTTING (Fig. 34)
CAUTION! To prevent serious injury:
e Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of your table saw to cause careless
mistakes. Remember that even a careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a
severe injury.
• Keep both hands away from the blade and the path of the blade.
.
Remove the rip fence and place the mitre Fig. 34
gauge in the left side groove.
.
Adjust the blade (1) so it is about 1/8" 3 2
higher than the workpiece (Fig. 34). 1
.
Hold the workpiece firmly against the
mitre gauge with the path of the blade in
line with the desired cut location. Keep
the workpiece about 1" away from the front
of the blade. Start the table saw motor and
allow the blade to reach to full speed.
.
Keep the workpiece (2) flat against the face of the mitre gauge (3) and flat against the
table.
.
Slowly push the workpiece through the saw blade's cutting arc.
6.
Do not try to pull the workpiece back while the blade is still turning. Turn the switch OFF
and carefully slide the workpiece out when the blade has completely stopped.
Page 29
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING (Fig. 35)
Always work to the right side of the btade
during this type of cut. The mitre gauge (1)
must be in the right-side groove (2) because
the bevel angte would cause the blade guard
to interfere with the cut if used on the left side
groove.
1. Adjust the blade (3) to the desired angte.
Tighten the btade bevel lock knob.
2. Tighten mitre lock handle at 90°.
3. Hold workpiece firmly against the face of
the mitre gauge (1) throughout the cutting
operation.
Fig. 35
3 1
2
MITRE CUTS (Fig. 36)
This cutting operation is the same as
crosscutting except the mitre gauge is
locked at an angle other than 90°.
1. Set the mitre gauge (3) to the desired angle
(Fig. 36).
2. Hold the workpiece (2) firmly against the
mitre gauge (3).
3. Feed the workpiece slowly into the blade
(1) to prevent the workpiece from shifting.
COMPOUND MITRE CROSSCUTTING (Fig. 37)
This sawing operation is combining a mitre
angle with a bevel angle. Always work to the
right side of the blade during this type of cut.
The mitre gauge (3) must be in the right side
groove because the bevel angle would cause
the blade guard to interefere with the cut if
used on the left side groove.
1. Set the mitre gauge (3) to the desired
angle.
2. Place the mitre gauge (3) in the right-side
groove (2) of the table.
3. Set the blade (1) to the desired bevel angle
and tighten the blade bevel lock knob.
4. Hold workpiece firmly against the face of
the mitre gauge (3) throughout the cutting
operation.

DADO CUTTING (Fig. 38)
Fig. 38
1. Unplugthe power cord before removing
and/or installingdado blades.
2. When making dado cuts,a dado insert plate
must be installed in place of the regular table
insert.
3. The arbor (1)of this saw restrictsthe
maximum width of dado cut to W'
(Fig. 38). The flange (2) must be installed
prior to reinstalling and tightening arbor
nut (3).
4. NOTE: Make sure the arbor nut is tight and
at least one thread of the arbor sticks out past the nut.
.
Use only a stackabte dado set and keep the width to W' or tess. It will be necessary to
remove the blade guard and splitter when using the dado.
CAUTION! Use caution when the dado blade is running. You have no guard to protect
you. Also, adjustable or wobble dado blades can NOT be used on this machine.

6. Use the correct number of round outside blades and chippers as shown in the dado
blade's instruction manual. Blade and chipper total width must not exceed W'.
7. Before starting the table saw, check to make sure the installed dado assembly will not
strike the motor, table or table saw base when in operation.
CAUTION! To avoid injury, always replace the blade, blade guard assembly and table
insert when you are finished with the dado operation.
USING A WOOD FACING ON THE RIP
FENCE (Fig. 39)
When performing some special cutting
operations, add a wood facing (1) to either side
of the rip fence (2).
1. Use a smooth 3_,,thick board (1) that is as
long as the rip fence.
2. Attach the wood facing to the rip fence
using wood screws (3). A wood facing
should be used when ripping material such
as thin panelling to prevent the material
from catching between the bottom of the
fence and the table.
Fig. 39
Page 31
BLADE SELECTION
There are many different types of blades with differing tooth configurations, tooth counts
and materials. Some of the more common types are shown below.
CAUTION! ABRASIVE AND METAL CUTTING BLADES MUST NOT BE USED
WITH THIS SAW. This saw was not made to cut metals or masonry materials. Doing
so may result in injury. It will also void the warranty.
ALL BLADES MUST:
1. BE RATED AT 5300 RPM OR HIGHER
2. HAVE A 5/8" ARBOR HOLE
3. BE NO LARGER THAN 10" IN DIAMETER
Smaller diameter blades may be used. However, they will result in a reduced cutting depth.
Combination blades

Not limited in cutting depth
Planer blades
Generally are hollow ground
Very smooth cuts in thin material
Limited depth of cut due to hollow ground construction
Not recommended for rip cuts
Carbide tipped blades
Stay sharp much longer
More expensive than all-steel blades
Available in all types listed above
Carbide is brittle and must not be used on any material that may contain nails, screws, etc.
Page 32
CAUTION: For your own safety, turn the switch OFF and removethe switch key.
Remove the plug fromthe power source before maintaining or lubricating your saw.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
e Frequently cleanout all sawdust that has accumulated inside the saw base and around
the motor with a vacuum.
e Polish the saw table with an automotive polishing wax to keep it clean and to make it
easier to slide the workpiece.
e Clean the cutting blades with pitch and gum remover.
e Immediately replace a worn, cut or damaged power cord.
CAUTION: All electrical and mechanical repairs should be performed by a trained
repair technician. Call the Toll Free Helptine at 1-886-881-7202 for the technician
nearest you. Use only identical replacement parts. Any substitute parts may create a
hazard.
Use liquid dish washing detergent and water to clean all plastic parts. NOTE: Use of certain
cleaning chemicals may damage plastic parts.
Do not use the following cleaning chemicals or solvents on your table saw: gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated solvents, ammonia and household detergents containing
ammonia.
BLADE RAISING AND TILTING MECHANISM
After every five hours of operation, the blade
raising and tilting mechanisms should be
checked for looseness, binding or other
abnormalities. With the table saw disconnected
from the power source and removed from
the stand, turn the saw upside down and
alternately pull upward and downward on the
motor unit. Observe any movements in the
motor mounting mechanism. Looseness or
play in the blade screw rod (1) should be
adjusted as follows (Fig. 40).
Fig. 40
1. Using a 14 mm wrench, loosen jam nut (2).
2. Adjust nut (3) until it is finger-tight against the bracket (4), then loosen the nut (3) 1/6 of
a tu rn.
3. Tighten jam nut (2) with a wrench while holding nut (3) in place. Maximum allowable
play in screw rod (1) is 4 mm.
Place a small amount of dry lubricant such as graphite or silicone on the screw rod (1)
at the thrust washer (5). Do not oil threads of screw rod. The screw rod must be kept
clean and free of sawdust, gum, pitch and other contaminants for smooth operation. Wet
lubricants such as oil will attract sawdust, etc.
If excessive looseness is observed in any other part of the blade raising or tilting
mechanisms, call the Toll Free Helptine at 1-886-881-7202 for proper adjustment
procedures.
LUBRICATION
All motor bearings are permanently lubricated at the factory and require no additional
lubrication. On all mechanical parts of your table saw where a pivot or threaded rod is
present, lubricate using graphite or silicone. These dry lubricants will not hold sawdust as
will oil or grease.
