all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious personal injury.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read the operator’s
manual carefully. Learn the saw’s applications and
limitations as well as the specific potential hazards related
to this tool.
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK BY PREVENT-
ING BODY CONTACT WITH GROUNDED SURFACES.
For example, pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working order.
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form
habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting wrenches
are removed from tool before turning it on.
KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches
invite accidents. DO NOT leave tools or pieces of wood
on the saw while it is in operation.
DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do
not use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose
to rain. Keep the work area well lit.
KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All visi-
tors should wear safety glasses and be kept a safe
distance from work area. Do not let visitors contact
tool or extension cord while operating.
MAKE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF with padlocks and
master switches, or by removing starter keys.
DON’T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer
at the feed rate for which it was designed.
USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force the tool or attachment to
do a job it was not designed for. Don’t use it for a purpose
not intended.
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. Use only a cord 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. A wire gauge size
(A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an extension
cord 25 feet or less in length. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord.
DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves,
neckties, or jewelry. They can get caught and draw you
into moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear
are recommended when working outdoors. Also wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES WITH SIDE
SHIELDS. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact- resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glasses.
SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work when
practical. It’s safer than using your hand and frees both
hands to operate tool.
DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp
and clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use, before
servicing, or when changing attachments, blades, bits,
cutters, etc., all tools should be disconnected.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Be sure switch is off
when plugging in any tool.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the
operator’s manual for recommended accessories. The
use of improper accessories may risk injury.
NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if
the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally
contacted.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the
tool, 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 must
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center to avoid risk of personal injury.
USE THE RIGHT DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into
a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation of blade
or cutter only.
NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN
THE POWER OFF. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a
complete stop.
PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or dust mask if
the cutting operation is dusty.
PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing protection
during extended periods of operation.
DO NOT ABUSE CORD. Never yank cord to disconnect
from receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and sharp
edges.
USE OUTDOOR EXTENSION CORDS. When tool
is used outdoors, use only extension cords with
approved ground connection that are intended for use
outdoors and so marked.
ALWAYS KEEP THE BLADE GUARD AND SPREADER
(SPLITTER) IN PLACE and in working order.
KEEP BLADES CLEAN, SHARP, AND WITH
SUFFICIENT SET. Sharp blades minimize stalling
and kickback.
KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING AREA. Keep
hands away from blades. Do not reach underneath

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
work or around or over the blade while blade is rotating.
Do not attempt to remove cut material when blade is
moving.
BLADE COASTS AFTER BEING TURNED OFF.
NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERE.
Normal sparking of the motor could ignite fumes.
INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY. If dam-
aged, have repaired by a qualified service technician at
an authorized service facility. 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. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord
immediately. Stay constantly aware of cord location and
keep it well away from the rotating blade.
INSPECT EXTENSION CORDS PERIODICALLY and
replace if damaged.
GROUND ALL TOOLS. If tool is equipped with three-
prong plug, it should be plugged into a three-hole electrical receptacle.
CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN or service
personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded.
USE ONLY CORRECT ELECTRICAL DEVICES: 3-wire
extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and
3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
DO NOT MODIFY the plug provided. If it will not fit the
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
KEEP TOOL DRY, CLEAN, AND FREE FROM OIL AND
GREASE. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never
use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or
any solvents to clean tool.
STAY ALERT AND EXERCISE CONTROL. Watch what
you are doing and use common sense. Do not operate
tool when you are tired. Do not rush.
DO NOT USE TOOL IF SWITCH DOES NOT TURN IT
ON AND OFF. Have defective switches replaced by an
authorized service center.
USE ONLY CORRECT BLADES. Do not use blades with
incorrect size holes. Never use blade washers or blade
bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade
capacity of your saw is 10 in. (254 mm).
BEFORE MAKING A CUT, BE SURE ALL ADJUST-
MENTS ARE SECURE.
BE SURE BLADE PATH IS FREE OF NAILS. Inspect for
and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.
NEVER TOUCH BLADE or other moving parts during
use.
NEVER START A TOOL WHEN ANY ROTATING COM-
PONENT IS IN CONTACT WITH THE WORKPIECE.
DO NOT OPERATE A TOOL WHILE UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL, OR ANY
MEDICATION.
WHEN SERVICING use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES listed

are not listed may cause the risk of personal injury.
Instructions for safe use of accessories are included
with the accessory.
DOUBLE CHECK ALL SETUPS. Make sure blade is
tight and not making contact with saw or workpiece
before connecting to power supply.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
FIRMLY BOLT THE SAW TO A WORK BENCH OR LEG
STAND at approximately hip height.
NEVER OPERATE THE SAW ON THE FLOOR.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. Kickback occurs when
the blade stalls rapidly and workpiece is driven back
towards the operator. It can pull your hand into the blade
resulting in serious personal injury. Stay out of blade path
and turn switch off immediately if blade binds or stalls.
USE RIP FENCE. Always use a fence or straight edge
guide when ripping.
SUPPORT LARGE PANELS. To minimize risk of blade
pinching and kickback, always support large panels.
REMOVE ALL FENCES AND AUXILIARY TABLES
before transporting saw. Failure to do so can result in an
accident causing possible serious personal injury.
ALWAYS USE BLADE GUARD, RIVING KNIFE, AND
ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS on all “through-sawing” op-
erations. Through-sawing operations are those in which
the blade cuts completely through the workpiece as in
ripping or cross cutting. Keep the blade guard down, the
anti-kickback pawls down, and the riving knife in place.
ALWAYS SECURE WORK firmly against the rip fence or
miter fence. NEVER use the rip fence during the same
operation as the miter fence.
WHEN MAKING NON-THROUGH RIP CUTS, always
use a push stick, push block, and/or featherboard so
your hands do not come within 3 in. of the saw blade.
WHEN RIPPING NARROW STOCK, always use a push
stick, push block, or featherboard.

using only your hands to support or guide the workpiece.
Always use either the rip fence or miter fence to position
and guide the work.
NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with
the path of the saw blade.
NEVER reach behind, over, or within three inches of the
blade or cutter with either hand for any reason.
MOVE THE RIP FENCE out of the way when cross cut-
ting.
DO NOT USE THE MITER FENCE AND RIP FENCE
during the same operation.
NEVER use rip fence as cutoff gauge when cross
cutting.
NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first
turning the saw OFF and disconnecting the saw from the
power source.
PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to the rear and sides
of the saw table for wide or long work pieces.
AVOID KICKBACKS (work thrown back toward you)
by:
a) Keeping blade sharp.
b) Keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade.
c) Keeping riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and
blade guard in place and operating.
d) Not releasing the work before it is pushed all the
way past the saw blade using a push stick.
e) Not ripping work that is twisted or warped or
does not have a straight edge to guide along the
fence.
IF THE POWER SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED, it must
be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an authorized
service center to avoid risk.
AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS AND HAND
POSITIONS where a sudden slip could cause your hand
to move into the cutting tool.

EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from
the power source, use an extension cord heavy enough
to carry the current that the tool will draw. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in
a loss of power and causing the motor to overheat. Use the
chart provided below to determine the minimum wire size
required in an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords
listed by Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) should be used.

**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit.
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
When working with the tool outdoors, use an extension cord
that is designed for outside use. This is indicated by the
letters “W-A” or “W” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
SPEED AND WIRING
The no-load speed of this tool is approximately 5,000 rpm.
This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or
with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as
important as the motor’s horsepower rating. A line intended
only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire
that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for
a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool
may not be able to support two or three tools.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or
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 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 a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in
a risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of
the cord is required, do not connect the grounding wire
to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools
or other obstructions while you are working with a power
tool. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged
replace immediately. Never use product with a damaged
cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product is powered by a precision built electric motor.
It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 V, AC only (normal household current), 60 Hz. Do not operate
this product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage
drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat.
If the saw does not operate when plugged into an outlet,
double check the power supply.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and
has a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in figure 1. Only connect the product to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this
product.

FEATURES
OPERATING COMPONENTS
The upper portion of the blade projects up through the table
and is surrounded by an insert called the throat plate. The
height of the blade is set with a handwheel on the front of the
cabinet. Detailed instructions are provided in the Operation
section of this manual for the basic cuts: cross cuts, miter
cuts, bevel cuts, and compound cuts.
The sliding miter table assembly is used for cross cutting
operations. The miter fence is easily adjusted to cut wood
at an angle by loosening the adjusting clamp, setting the
fence to the miter scale, and retightening the clamp. With
the miter fence removed, the miter table offers additional
support for other operations such as ripping.
The rip fence is used to position work for lengthwise cuts.
A scale on the front rail shows the distance between the rip
fence and the blade.
It is very important to use the blade guard assembly for
all through-sawing operations. The blade guard assembly
includes: riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and plastic blade
guard.

ASSEMBLY
UNPACKING
This product requires assembly.
Carefully remove the tool and any accessories from the
box. Place it on a level work surface.
NOTE: This tool is heavy. To avoid back injury, keep your
knees bent and lift with your legs, not your back, and get
help when needed.
WARNING:
Never stand directly in line with the blade or allow hands
to come closer than 3 in. to the blade. Do not reach over
or across the blade. Failure to heed this warning can
result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not use this product if any parts on the Loose Parts
List are already assembled to your product when you
unpack it. Parts on this list are not assembled to the
product by the manufacturer and require customer installation. Use of a product that may have been improperly
assembled could result in serious personal injury.
Inspect the tool carefully to make sure no breakage or
damage occurred during shipping.
Do not discard the packing material until you have
carefully inspected the tool, identified all loose parts, and
satisfactorily operated the tool.
NOTE: A box containing some of the Loose Parts is
inside the saw cabinet. Also, remove the foam blocks
from between the saw’s housing and motor by beveling
the blade (see page 26).
The saw is factory set for accurate cutting. After
assembling it, check for accuracy. If shipping has
influenced the settings, refer to specific procedures
explained in this manual.
If any parts are damaged or missing, please call 1-800-
525-2579 for assistance.
WARNING:
If any parts are damaged or missing do not operate this
product until the parts are replaced. Use of this product
with damaged or missing parts could result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to modify this tool or create accessories
not recommended for use with this tool. Any such alteration or modification is misuse and could result in a hazardous condition leading to possible serious personal injury.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always make sure the
table saw is securely mounted to a workbench or an
approved leg stand. NEVER operate the saw on the floor.
MOUNTING HOLES
This tool comes mounted to a leg stand. If you chose to
remove the leg stand, the table saw must be mounted to
a firm supporting surface such as a workbench. Four bolt
holes have been provided in the saw’s base for this purpose. Each of the four mounting holes should be bolted
securely using 5/16 in. machine bolts, lock washers, and hex
nuts (not included). Bolts should be of sufficient length to
accommodate the saw base, lock washers, hex nuts, and the
thickness of the workbench. Tighten all four bolts securely.
Carefully check the workbench after mounting to make
sure that no movement can occur during use. If any tipping,
sliding, or walking is noted, secure the workbench to the
floor before operating.
TO ATTACH THE WHEEL ASSEMBLY
See Figure 6.
Locate the bolt screwed through the leg stand and saw
cabinet on the left side of the saw.
Unscrew the bolt then remove bolt, spacers, and flat
washers from the saw.
Place a flat washer on the bolt then slide the bolt/washer
into the hole in the center of the wheel.
Place a second flat washer then small spacer on the bolt.
Slide the bolt into the leg stand and large spacer.
Place a sleeve inside the leg stand aligning the sleeve
ends with holes in the stand and fixed nut.
Slide the entire combination into the holes and through
the sleeve. Tighten securely.
Repeat with the second wheel assembly.
WARNING:
Do not connect to power supply until assembly is
complete. Failure to comply could result in accidental
starting and possible serious personal injury.
