ADDDTaONAL SAFETY RNSTRUCTSONS FOR TABLE SAWS

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT OPERATE YOUR SAW UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY

ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE

INSTRUCTIONS AND UNTIL YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE FOLLOWING,

1, GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER

TOOLS .... SEE PAGE 2

2,_ GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SAW .... SEE PAGE 15

3o BASIC SAW OPERATION , ,. SEE PAGE 17

4, ADJUSTMENTS ..... SEE PAGE 23

5o MAINTENANCE , _o SEE PAGE 26 6_ STABILITY OF SAW

if there is any tendency for the saw to tip over or move

during certain cutting operations such as cutting extremely large heavy panels or long heavy boards, the

saw should be bolted down if you attach any kind of table extensions over 24"

wide to either end of the saw, make sure you either bolt the saw to the bench or floor as appropriate, or

support the outer end of the extension from the bench or floor, as appropriate.,

7o LOCATION

The saw should be positioned so neither the operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand in Iine with the

saw blade

8o KICKBACKS

A "KICKBACK" occurs during a rip-type operation when a part or aU of the workpiece is thrown back violently toward the operator

Keep your face and body to one side of the sawblade, out of line with a possible "Kickback "

Kickbacks - and possible injury from them - can usually be avoided by: A Maintaining the rip fence parallel to the sawblade B Keeping the sawbiade sharp, Repfacing antikickback

pawls when points become dull

C Keeping sawblade guard, spreader, and antikickback

pawts in place and operating properly. The spreader must be in alignment with the sawblade and the

pawls must stop a kickback once it has started. Check their action before ripping.

D NOT ripping work that is twisted or warped or does

not have a straight edge to guide along the rip fence

E NOT releasing work untii you have pushed it all the

way past the sawblade

F. Using a "PUSH STICK" (See Page T6) for ripping

widths of 2 to 6 in, and an auxiliary fence and push

block for ripping widths narrower than 2 in (See "Basic Saw Operation Using The Rip Fence" section }

G NOT confining the cut-off piece when ripping or

crosscutting.

H When ripping apply the feed force to the section of

the workpiece between the saw bfade and the rip fence

9, PROTECTION: EYES, HANDS, FACE, EARS, BODY

A If any part of your saw is malfunctioning, has been

damaged or broken such as the motor switch, or other operating control, a safety device or the power cord cease operating immediately until

the particular part is properly repaired or replaced

B. Wear safety goggles that comply with ANSI Z87 1,

and a face shield if operation is dusty. Wear ear p[ugs or muffs during extended periods of

operation

C. Small loose pieces of wood or other objects that

contact the rear of the revolving blade can be thrown back at the operator at excessive speed. This

can usually be avoided by keeping the guard and

spreader in place for al! "THRU-SAWING" operations (sawing entirely thru the work) AND by

removing all loose pieces from the table with a long

stick of wood IMMEDIATELY after they are cut off,

D Use extra caution when the guard assembly is

removed for resawing, dadoing, rabbeting, or molding - replace the guard as soon as that operation is completed

E For rip or rip*type cuts, the following end of a

workpiece to which a push stick or push board is applied must be square (perpendicular to the fence) in order that feed pressure applied to the workpiece

by the push stick or block does not cause the workpiece to come away from the fence, and possibly cause a kickback

F. During rip and rip type cuts, the workplece must be

held down on the table and against the fence with a push stick, push block, or featherboards A

featherboard is made of solid lumber per sketch..

G NEVER turn the saw "'ON" before clearing the

table of all tools, wood scraps, etc, except the workpiece and related feed or support devices for the operation planned

H NEVER place your face or body in line with the

cutting tool..

I, NEVER place your fingers or hands in the path of

the sawblade or other cutting tooI.

J NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with

either hand to hold down or support the workpiece, remove wood scraps, or for any other reason Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a

sudden slip could cause fingers or hand to move

into a sawblade or other cutting tool

K_ DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work

on the table while the cutting tool is rotating.

L. DO NOT perform any operation "FREEHAND" -

always use either the rip or the miter gauge to

position and guide the work

M_ NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting or the

miter gauge when ripping.DO NOT use the rip fence

as a length stop

NEVER hold onto or touch the "free end" of the

workplece or a "free piece" that _s cut off, while Dower is "ON" and!or the sawblade is rotating.

N Shut "OFF" the saw and disconnect the power cord

when removing the table insert, changing the

cutting tool, removing or replacing the blade guard,

or making adjustments.

O.. Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of

the saw table for wider or long workpieces.

P PIastic and composition (like hardboard) materials

may be cut on your saw However, since these are usualty quite hard and slippery, the antikickback pawls may not stop a kickback

Therefore, be especially attentive to following

proper set-up and cutting procedures for ripping. Do not stand, or permit anyone e_se to stand, in Iine

with a potential kickback.

Q If you stall or jam the sawblade in the workpieceo

turn saw "OFF", remove the workpiece from the sawblade, and check to see if the sawblade is paraIlel to the miter gauge grooves and if the

Page 4

spreaderisinproperalignmentwiththesawblade,,

If rippingatthetime,checktoseeif theripfence

is parallel with the sawbladeReadjustas

indicated.

R. DO NOT remove small pieces of cut-off material

that may become trapped inside the blade guard

while the saw is running This could endanger your hands or cause a kickback. Turn saw "OFF" and

wait until blade stops

S Use extra care when ripping wood that has a twisted

grain or is twisted or bowed -- it may rock on the table and/or pinch the sawblade

10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS A. Dull, gummy, or improperly sharpened or set cutting

tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall the saw, or kickback at the operator

Minimize potential injury by proper cutting roof and machine maintenance,

NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE

SAW OFF,

B Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels,

friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or buffing wheels

11. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS SAW_

12 Crosscutting operations are more conveniently worked

and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is

attached to the miter gauge using the holes provided

However, the facing must not interfere with the proper

functioning of the sawbtade guard,

13 Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates

toward you when standing in normal operating position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed properly Keep the cutting tool as low as possible for the operation being performed Keep all guards in place whenever possible

14 Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for

an operating speed less than 3450 RPM Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for which the saw was designed For greatest safety and efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter

blade for which the saw is designed since under these

conditions the spreader is nearest the blade

15. Adjust tabie inserts flush with the table top NEVER Operate the saw unless the proper insert is installed

16. Never feed material into the cutting tool from the rear of the saw. An accident and serious injury could result.

17 Always maintain control of the workpiece -- DO NOT

"let go" of the workpiece until the cutting tool has come to a stop.

18. IF YOUR SAW MAKES AN UNFAMILIAR NOISE OR IF IT VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY CEASE OPERATING IMMEDIATELY UNTIL THE SOURCE

HAS BEEN LOCATED AND THE PROBLEM

CORRECTED.

19. If any part of this table saw is missing or should break, bend or fail in any way, or any electrical component fail to perform properly, shut off power switch, remove cord from power supply and replace damaged, missing and/or failed parts before resuming operation,

20. THINK SAFETY, Safety [sa combination of operator common sense and

alertness at all times when the saw is being used.

ALIGNING RIP FENCE

The fence should slide easily along the bars and always remain in alignment (parallel to sawbtade and miter gauge

grooves), The alignment is maintained by a spring underneath the

fence which bears against the front guide bar, To move the fence, loosen the lock handle and grasp the

fence with one hand at the front,,

For very close adjustments, grasp the guide bar with both

hands and move the fence with your thumbs.,

Place fence on saw but DO NOT LOCK IT.

Move the REAR END of the fence slightly to the right or left .. when you release it, the fence should "'spring" back to its original position.

If it does not, the spring pressure must be INCREASED

1o Loosen the screws

2o Move Spring slightly toward front of fence.

BASUC SAW

WORK HELPERS

Before cutting any wood on your saw, study alt of the "Basic Saw Operations"

Notice that in order to make some of the cuts, it is

necessary to use certain devices "Work Helpers" like the Push Stick, the Push Block and the Auxiliary Fence/Work

Support, which you can make yourself.,

After you have made a few practice cuts, make these "helpers" before starting any projects. Make the "Push

Stick" first,

PUSH STICK AND PUSH BLOCK Make the Push Stick using a piece of ] x 2, or rip one from

a wide board, say t 1-1/2" wide, end set the rip fence 9-7/8 in. from the sawblade

Make the Push Block using a piece of 3/8 in and 3/4 in, plywood,

The small piece of wood 3/8 in, x 3/8 in. x 2-1/2 in should be GLUED to the plywood , DO NOT USE NAILS, This

is to prevent dulling the sawblade in the event you mistakingly cut into the push block,

Position the handle in the center of the plywood and fasten

together with glue and woodscrews

AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT Make one using a piece of 3/8 in, and 3/4 in., plywood

Fasten together with glue and woodscrews

NOTE: Since the Push Block is used with the Auxiliary Fence, the 4-3/4 in,, dimensions must be held identical on

both the pieces.

USING THE MITER GAUGE

CROSSCUTTING, MITER CUTTING, BEVEL CUTTING, COMPOUND MITER CUTTING and when RABBETING

across the end of a narrow workpiece, THE MITER GAUGE IS USED

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS tN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGES 2. 3, and 4.

1. Never make these cuts freehand (without using the miter gauge or other auxiliary devices) because the

blade could bind in the cut and cause a KICKBACK or

cause your fingers or hand to slip into the blade

2. Always lock the miter gauge securely when in use, 3,, Remove rip fence from table, 4,, Make sure blade guard is installed for all "thru-sawing"

operations (when sawblade cuts entirely thru the thickness of the workpiece ) Replace guard

IMMEDIATELY after completion of dadoing, molding

or rabbeting cuts

5 Have blade extend approximately 1/8 in., above top of

workpiece., Additional blade exposure would increase the hazard potential,

6. Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case of a THROWBACK (Small cut-off piece caught by the back of the blade and thrown toward the operator), Stand to

either side of the blade

7, Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path

of the blade,.

If blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN SWITCH

OFF before attempting to free the blade,

10. Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the table, REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table

with along stick. Otherwise they could be thrown back at you by the rear of the blade

11. Do not remove small pieces of cut-off materia! that may become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw

is RUNNING.. THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or cause a KICKBACK.

Turn the saw OFF. After the blade has stopped turning, lift the guard and remove the piece.

Page 18

CROSSCUTTING

CROSSCUTTING is known as cutting wood across the grain, at 90 ° , or square with both the edge and the flat side of the wood° This is done with miter gauge set at "0'°..

The graduations on the miter gauge provide accuracy for average woodworking In some cases where extreme

accuracy is required, when making angle cuts, for example, make a trial cut and then recheck it with an accurate

square, or protractor.

If necessary, the miter gauge head can be swiveled slightly

to compensate for any inacurracy,

NOTE: The space between the miter gauge bar and the

groove in the table is held to a minimum during

manufacturing.

For maximum accuracy when using the miter gauge, always "favor" one side of the groove in the table, In other words, don't move the miter gauge from side to side while cutting, but keep one side of the bar riding against one side of the

groove_ NOTE: Glue a piece of sandpaper to the face of the miter

gauge head.. This will help prevent the workpiece from

"creeping" while it is being cut° The Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) should be

used on the miter gauge for greater accuracy,

When cutting long workpieces, invert AUXILIARY

FENCE!WORK SUPPORT and position it on top of the

guide bars to support the workpiece as near to the end as

possible if this does not adequately support the workpiece,

you can make a simple support by clamping a piece of

plywood to a sawhorse.

Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the

miter gauge for greater accuracy

SANDP

The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves in the

table. Make sure it is locked.. When using the miter gauge in the LEFT hand groove, hold

the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head with your left hand, and grip the lock knob with your right

When using the RIGHT Hand groove, hold the workpiece with your right hand and the lock knob with your left hand.

REPETITIVE CUTTING

REPETITIVE CUTTING is known as cutting a quantity of

pieces the same length without having to mark each piece.

1o Use the Stop Rods (optional accessory) only for cutting

duplicate pieces 6 in. long and longer.

2. DO NOT FEED workpiece with RIGHT Hand. merely guide it. making sure that it does not bind or pinch the

sawbtade

When making repetitive cuts from a tong workpiece, make sure it is adequately supported.

MITER CUTTING is known as cutting wood at an angle other than 90 ° with the edge of the wood Follow the same

procedure as you would for crosscutting., Adjust the miter gauge to the desired angle, and lock it, The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves in the

table,, When using the miter gauge in the LEFT Hand groove, hold

the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head with your left hand, and grip the lock knob with your right

When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpiece with your right hand and the lockknob with your left hand,

Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory} on the miter gauge for greater accuracy,,

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING is the same as crosscutting

except that the wood is also cut at an angle , , other than

90 ° with the flat side of the wood

Adjust the blade to the desired angle,. Use the Miter Gauge in the groove to the RIGHT of the

blade, it cannot be used in the groove to the LEFT because the blade guard wi!t interfere Hold the workpiece with your right hand and the Iockknob with your left hand

Use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT for

Lay it across the guide bars to support the workpiece as

near to the end as possible

Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory} on the

miter gauge for greater accuracy

COMPOUND MITER CUTTING

COMPOUND MITER CUTTING is a combination of miter cutting and bevel crosscutting The cut is made at an angle

other than 90 ° to both the edge and the flat side of the wood_

Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired angle

Make sure miter gauge is locked,

USING THE RIP FENCE

RIPPING, BEVEL RIPPING, RESAWING AND RABBETING are performed using the RIP FENCE together

with the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT, PUSH STICK OR PUSH BLOCK

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS IN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON

PAGES 2, 3, and 4.

Never make these cuts FREEHAND (without using the rip fence or auxiliary devices when required) because

the blade could bind in the cut and cause a

KICKBACK.

Always lock the rip fence securely when in use.

Remove miter gauge from table.

Make sure blade guard is installed for all thru-sawing type cuts. Replace the guard iMMEDIATELY following completion of resawing, rabbeting, dadoing, or molding operations,,

Frequently check the action of the ANTIKICKBACI< PAWLS by passing the workpiece alongside of the spreader while saw is OFF.

Pull the workpiece TOWARD you If the PAWLS do

RIPPING

RIPPING is known as cutting a piece of wood with the

grain, or lengthwise, This is done using the rip fence. Position the fence to the desired WIDTH OF RIP and lock

in place. Before starting to rip, be sure

A. Rip Fence is parallel to sawblade. & Spreader is properly aligned with sawblade

C Antikickback pawls are functioning properly

When ripping LONG BOARDS or LARGE PANELS, always

use a work support A simple one can be made by clamping a piece of plywood

to a sawhorse.,

BEVEL RIPPING

When bevel ripping materia_ 6 in or narrower, use fence on the right side of the blade ONLY, This will provide more space between the fence and the sawblade for use of a push

stick_ If the fence is mounted to the left, the sawblade guard may interfere with proper use of a push stick,

not DIG into the workpiece and HOLD it, • the pawls must be SHARPENED,, See "Maintenance" section

5. Have blade extend approximately 1/8 in above top of workpiece,, Additional blade exposure would increase the hazard potential.

& Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case of a

KICKBACK, Stand to either side of the blade°

7. Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path

of the blade,

& If the blade stalls or stops while cutting. TURN

SWITCH OFF before attempting to free the blade,

9. Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the

workpiece through the cut oo. to support long or heavy workpieces , o,. to remove small cut-off pieces of

material or FOR ANY OTHER REASON.

10. Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the table° REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table

with a long stick,, Otherwise they could be thrown back at you by the rear of the blade.

1t Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may

become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw

is RUNNING. THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or cause a KICKBACK.

Turn the saw OFF,, After the blade has stopped turning,

lift the guard and remove the piece°

ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES

When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 6 in. and WIDER use your

RIGHT Hand to feed the workpiece until it is clear of the table_

Use LEFT hand ONLY to guide the workpiece .... do not

FEED the workpiece with the left hand.

Page 21

When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 2 in.. to 6 in. wide USE THE

PUSH STICK to feed the work.

When WIDTH OF RIP is NARROWER than 2 in., the push stick CANNOT be used because the guard will interfere .

USE the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT and PUSH BLOCK.

Attach Auxiliary Fence/Work Support to rip fence with two "C" clamps..

AUXILIARY FENCE/

/t I

Feed the workpiece by hand along the AUXILIARY

FENCE/WORK SUPPORT until the end is approx_ 1 in. past the front edge of the table. Continue to feed using the

PUSH BLOCK.

Hold the workpiece in position and install the PUSH BLOCK by sliding it on top of the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT (This May Raise Guard)

BAFFLE

Narrow strips thicker than the Auxiliary Fence/Work Support may enter the guard and strike the baffle

PLOUGHING AND MOLDING

CAREFULLY raise guard only enough to clear the workpiece UsePUSH B LOCK to complete cut,,

PLOUGHING is grooving with the grain the long way of the workpJece, using the fence USE proper holddowns and feed devices.

MOLDING is shaping the workpiece with the grain the long way of the workpiece, using the fence. Use proper holddowns and feed devices

Page 22

RESAWING

RESAWING is known as ripping a piece of wood through its thickness, Do not attempt to resaw BOWED or WARPED material, NOTE: To RESAW a piece of wood

wider than 3-9/16 in ..... it will be necessary to remove the

blade guard .... and use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK

SUPPORT. (See "Work Helpers"), Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece wilt SLIDE

EASILY (but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS) without BINDING between the two fences.

Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table

because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip properly, Place a small block or wood between the bottom edge of

the table and the "C" clamp WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY . oo

1, DO NOT "BACK UP" (REVERSE FEEDING) WHILE

RESAWING BECAUSE THIS COULD CAUSE A KICKBACK.

CUTTING PANELS

When using the molding head it will be necessary to remove the Blade Guard and Spreader. USE CAUTION, Use

featherboards and push sticks etc., as required,. ALWAYS REPLACE THE BLADE GUARD AND

SPREADER WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED MOLDING,

Page 23

USING FEATHERBOARDS

Add 8 inch high flat facing board to the fence, the full length of the fence,

Use featherboards for all non "thru-sawing" operations (when sawb[ade guard must be removed), Featherboards are

used to keep the work in contact with the fence and table as shown, and to stop kickbacks.

Mount featherboards to fence and table as shown, so that leading edges of featherboards wil! support workpiece until

cut is complete, and the workpiece has been pushed completely past the cutter (sawblade, dado head, molding head, etc.) with a pushstick, as in ripping

WORK SUPPORT

Before starting the operation (switch "OFF" and cutter below table surface):

(a) Install featherboards so they exert pressure on the

workpiece; be positive they are secure, and

(b) Make sure by trial that the featherboards will stop a

kickback if one should occur,

Featherboards are not employed during non thru-sawing

operations when using the miter gage,

Replace the sawbtade guard as soon as the non thru-sawing

operation is complete

MITER GAUGE

NOTE: The holes for the stop pin and the graduations are manufactured to very close tolerances which provide

accuracy for average woodworking In some cases where extreme accuracy is required, when making angle cuts, for example, make a trial cut and then recheck it.

If necessary, the miter gauge head can be swiveled slightly

to compensate for any inaccuracy.,

1. Loosen the "knob" and pul! "stop pin'" OUT,

2. Swivel the head .... position it at "0" . . push the

stop pin IN ..... lock the handle,

3. The HEAD should be square with the Bar and the pointer should point to "0",, Readjust the pointer if necessary.

4. If the head is not square with the bar, adjustments are require&

A, Loosen the "knob" (1) and the "two screws" (2)

B Position the HEAD square with the BAR using a

combination square,

C, PUSH the STOP PIN into the slot in the head at

"0" ,.... push the pin into the slot and twist it, Lock

the knob,,

Do Recheck with the square,, if the head is still not

square, loosen the screws (2) and readjust the

HEELING ADJUSTMENT or PARALLELISM

OF SAWBLADE TO MITER GAUGE GROOVE

While cutting, the material must move in a straight tine PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE ,. therefore both the

miter gauge GROOVE and the RIP FENCE must be PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE

tf the sawblade IS NOT parallel to the miter gauge groove, the blade will bind at one end of the cut, (This is known as

"HEELING"), To check for parallelism:

WARNING - FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH "OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER SOURCE

OUTLET,

1. Raise blade all the way up .... raise blade guard.,

2, Mark as "x" on one of the teeth which is SET (bent) to

the LEFT,

3. Place the head of a combination square in the

GROOVE .... adjust blade of square so that it just

touches the tip of of the MARKED tooth.

4. Move square to REAR, rotate blade to see i.f MARKED tooth again touches blade of square.

5. If tooth touches square the same amount at FRONT

and REAR ...... sawblade is PARALLEL to MITER

GAUGE GROOVE,

If tooth does not touch Front and Rear, • the mechanism underneath must be adjusted to make the blade

PARALLEL to GROOVE.

NOTE: Make sure TI LT CLAMP KNOB is tightened,

1 Lay the saw on its LEFT SIDE,

Do not allow sawdust to accumulate inside the saw. Frequently blow out any dust that may accumulate inside

the saw cabinet and the motor,

Frequently clean your cutting tools with Craftsman Gum

and Pitch Remover

A coat of automobile-type wax applied to the table and the rip fence guide bar will help to keep the surfaces clean and allow workpieces and the fence to slide more freety.

If the power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way,

have it replaced immediately,,

Make sure the teeth of the ANTfKICKBACK pawls are always sharp,, To sharpen:

1 Remove blade guard.
