Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specications provided with this power tool.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or BATTERY-operated (cordless) power

tool.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable liquids,

gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter with

earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the

risk of electric shock.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord

away from heat oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric

shock.

e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord

suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)

protected supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use

a power tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of

inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,

non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection and dust protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries. Gloves are recommended when changing blades.

c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the o-position before connection to power

source, picking up, or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or energising power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a

rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool

in unexpected situations

f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool

safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4. Power tool use and care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for you application. The correct power tool will do

the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and o. Any power tool that cannot be controlled

with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or

storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power

tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of

parts and any other condition that may aect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power

tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to

bind and are easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tools bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into

account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations dierent

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping

surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5. Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical replacement parts. This

will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

• SEE GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY SECTION OF THIS MANUAL. Read entire instruction manual before operating saw. Learning the

saw’s proper applications, limitations, and specic potential hazards will greatly minimize the possibility of accidents and injury. Make sure all

users are familiar with its warnings and instructions before using saw.

• SEE POWER CONNECTION SECTION OF THIS MANUAL for instructions and warnings regarding power cords and connections.

TERMINOLOGY

The following terms will be used throughout the manual and you should become familiar with them.

– Through-cut refers to any cut that completely cuts through the

workpiece.

– Non-through cut refers to any cut that does not completely cut

through the workpiece.

_ Push stick refers to a wooden or plastic stick, usually homemade,

that is used to push a small workpiece through the saw and keeps the

operator’s hands clear of the blade.

– Kickback occurs when the saw blade binds in the cut or between the

blade and the fence and thrusts the workpiece back toward the operator.

or lowering the workpiece down to the blade.

– Re-sawing – Flipping material to make a cut the saw is not capable of

making in one pass.

– Cove cutting – Also known as coving, cove cutting is an operation

where the work is fed at an angle across the blade.

– Freehand refers to cutting without the use of a miter gauge or rip

fence or any other means of guiding or holding the workpiece other than

the operator’s hand.

– Plunge cutting refers to blind cuts in the workpiece made by either

raising the blade through the workpiece the workpiece.

Accessories for use with your saw are available at extra cost from your

local dealer or authorized service center.

Table Saw Specic Safety Rules

WARNING READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS DESIGNATED BY THE SYMBOL AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

1. GUARDING RELATED WARNINGS (FOR TABLE SAW, 62841-3-1)

a. Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working order and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose, damaged, or is

not functioning correctly must be repaired or replaced.

b. Always use saw blade guard, riving knife and anti-kickback device for every through-cutting operation. For through-

cutting operations where the saw blade cuts completely through the thickness of the workpiece, the guard and other safety

devices help reduce the risk of injury.

c. Immediately reattach the guarding system after completing an operation (such as rabbeting or resawing cuts)

which requires removal of the guard, riving knife and/or anti-kickback device. The guard, riving knife, and anti-

kickback device help to reduce the risk of injury.

d. Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard, riving knife or the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

Inadvertent contact of these items with the saw blade could cause a hazardous condition.

e. Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can make the

riving knife ineective in reducing the likelihood of kickback.

f. For the riving knife and anti-kickback device to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife and

anti-kickback device are ineective when cutting workpieces that are too short to be engaged with the riving knife and anti-

kickback device. Under these conditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and antikickback device.

g. 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.

2. CUTTING PROCEDURES WARNINGS

a. DANGER: Never place your ngers or hands in the vicinity or in line with the saw blade. A moment of inattention or a

slip could direct your hand towards the saw blade and result in serious personal injury.

b. Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cutter only against the direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece in the

same direction that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the

saw blade.

c. Never use the mitre gauge to feed the workpiece when ripping and do not use the rip fence as a length stop when

cross cutting with the mitre gauge. Guiding the workpiece with the rip fence and the mitre gauge at the same time increases

the likelihood of saw blade binding and kickback.

d. When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding force between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick

when the distance between the fence and the saw blade is less than 150 mm, and use a push block when this distance is less

than 50 mm. "Work helping" devices will keep your hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.

e. Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions. This push

stick provides sucient distance of the hand from the saw blade.

f. Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip into the saw blade.

g. Do not perform any operation "freehand". Always use either the rip fence or the mitre gauge to position and guide the

workpiece. "Freehand" means using your hands to support or guide the workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or mitre gauge. Freehand

sawing leads to misalignment, binding and kickback.

h. Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade. Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental contact with the moving

saw blade.

i. Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide workpieces to

keep them level. A long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the table’s edge, causing loss of control, saw blade

binding and kickback.

5

TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES

j. Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool o immediately,

unplug the tool then clear the jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause kickback or stall the motor.

k. Do not remove pieces of cut-o material while the saw is running. The material may become trapped between the fence or

inside the saw blade guard and the saw blade pulling your ngers into the saw blade. Turn the saw o and wait until the saw blade

stops before removing material.

l. Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm thick. A thin workpiece

may wedge under the rip fence and create a kickback.

m. Never Cut Metals, Cement Board or Masonry. Certain man-made materials have special instructions for cutting on table saws.

Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations at all times to avoid overheating the saw blade tips as well as melting the plastic. Avoid

overheating blade tips by pushing material through blade evenly. Forcing material too fast can cause heating and damage to blade or

workpiece. If cutting plastics is permitted, to avoid melting the plastic.

3. 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 xed object.

a. 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.

b. Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence.

Kickback may propel the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with the saw blade.

c. Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or to support the workpiece. Accidental contact with the saw blade

may occur or kickback may drag your ngers into the saw blade.

d. Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut o against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the workpiece being cut

o against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.

e. Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the saw blade and create

kickback.

f. Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non-through cuts such as

rabbeting, or resawing cuts. A featherboard helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.

g. Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade may cut objects

that can cause kickback.

h. Support large panels to minimise the risk of saw blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own

weight. Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel overhanging the table top.

i. Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight edge to

guide it with a mitre gauge or along the fence. A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is unstable and causes misalignment of

the kerf with the saw blade, binding and kickback.

j. Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or more pieces and

cause kickback.

k. When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that the saw

teeth are not engaged in the material. If the saw blade binds, it may lift up the workpiece and cause kickback when the saw is

restarted.

l. Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with sucient set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with cracked or broken

teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades minimize binding, stalling and kickback.

4. Table saw operating procedure warnings

a. Turn o the table saw and disconnect the power cord when removing the table insert, changing the saw blade

or making adjustments to the riving knife, ant kickback device or saw blade guard, and when the machine is left

unattended. Precautionary measures will avoid accidents.

b. Never leave the table saw running unattended. Turn it o and don’t leave the tool until it comes to a complete stop. An

unattended running saw is an uncontrolled hazard.

c. Locate the table saw in a well-lit and level area where you can maintain good footing and balance. It should be installed

in an area that provides enough room to easily handle the size of your workpiece. Cramped, dark areas, and uneven slippery oors

invite accidents.

d. Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under the saw table and/or the dust collection device. Accumulated sawdust

is combustible and may self-ignite.

e. The table saw must be secured. A table saw that is not properly secured may move or tip over.

f. Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the table before the table saw is turned on. Distraction or a potential jam can be

dangerous.

g. Always use saw blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbor holes. Saw blades that do not match

the mounting hardware of the saw will run o-center, causing loss of control.

h. Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mounting means such as anges, saw blade washers, bolts or nuts. These

mounting means were specially designed for your saw, for safe operation and optimum performance.

i. Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as a stepping stool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting

tool is accidentally contacted.

j. Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate in the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels, wire brushes, or

abrasive wheels on a table saw. Improper saw blade installation or use of accessories not recommended may cause serious injury.

k. DO NOT REMOVE A WORKPIECE without rst turning o the saw and unplugging it from the power source.

POWER CONNECTIONS

POWER SOURCE

This saw is equipped with a 15-amp motor for use with a 120-

volt, 60-HZ alternating current.

For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the motor’s

rating. A line intended only for lights may not be able to

properly carry the current needed for a power tool motor; wire

that is heavy enough for a short distance may be too light for

a greater distance; and a line that can support one power tool

may not be able to support two or three.

A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines.

This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be

protected with a 20-amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord

is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong

grounding-type plugs and matching receptacle which will

accept the machine’s plug. Before connecting the machine

to the power line, make sure the switch (s) is in the “OFF”

position and be sure that the electric current is of the same

characteristics as indicated on the machine. A substantial

voltage drop will cause a loss of power and overheat the

motor. It may also damage the machine. This power tool is

provided with Type Y attachment power supply cord. If the

replacement of the SUPPLY CORD is necessary, this has to

be done by the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a

safety hazard.

DO NOT EXPOSE THE MACHINE TO RAIN OR OPERATE THE MACHINE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC

SHOCK.

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 machine is equipped with an

electric cord having a grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching receptacle

that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all

local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug as provided on your saw or as rewired

by your electrician. If it will not fit the receptacle, have the

proper receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor

can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with

insulation having an outer surface that is green with or

without yellow stripes is the 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.

PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.

If tool is loaned to someone, also loan them these instructions.

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains

chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these

chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber

Your risk from these exposures 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 dust masks that are specifically

designed to filter out microscopic particles.

POWER CONNECTIONS

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as

to whether the machine is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching, properly grounded 3-conductor receptacles

that accept the machine’s plug, as shown in Figure A, or a properly grounded receptacle with a grounding means adapter, as shown

in Figure B.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU

ARE NOT SURE, HAVE A qualied ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

This is a grounded, cord-connected tool intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal voltage of 120 volts. It is intended to

for use on a circuit that has an outlet as shown in FIG. A. It has a plug as shown in FIG A. If you have a 2 pole receptacle as shown

in FIG. B you may use a temporary adapter, as shown in FIG. B. if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The green ear lug

extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent grounded outlet box. The temporary adapter should be used only

until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

This tool may be converted to 240 volt power supply circuit by a qualified electrician. If it is converted to 240 volts it must be

equipped with a grounding plug shown in FIG. C and must be connected to an outlet as shown in FIG. C, which is connected to a

permanent ground. No adapter is available or should be used with this tool when converted to 240 volts.

EXTENSION CORDS

Never use a damaged extension cord. Check extension cords before each use. If damaged, replace immediately.

Touching the damaged area could case electrical shock resulting in serious injury.

Keep the extension cord clear of the work area. Position the cord so it will not get caught on lumber, tools or other

obstructions.

• Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug

and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug, as described in this manual’s Grounding Instructions. When using

an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop

in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the maximum gauge to use depending on the

cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. Only round, jacketed

cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) should be used.

can be removed by spraying WD-40

®

on them and wiping

them off with a soft cloth. This may need to be redone

several times before all of the protective coatings are removed

completely.

After cleaning, apply a good quality paste wax to any

unpainted cast iron surfaces. Make sure to buff out the wax

before assembly.

• The machine is heavy, two people are required to unpack

and lift.

• Use a safety strap to avoid tip over when lifting machine.

• Prior to tool assembly and use, read this manual thoroughly

to familiarize yourself with proper assembly, maintenance

and safety procedures.

Check shipping carton and machine for damage before

unpacking. Carefully remove components in top foam layer.

Remove the top layer of foam then remove all components

in the bottom layer of foam. Lay out all parts on a piece of

cardboard or other clean, flat surface. Two or more people

are needed to lift the saw out of the carton. Always check for

and remove protective shipping materials around motors and

moving parts. Do not discard shipping carton and packing

materials until you have carefully inspected the contents,

assembled the machine and are satisfied that it operates

correctly.

FIGURE 15A

BLADE AND RIVING KNIFE

To reduce the risk of serious personal

injury, the riving knife must be installed

and properly positioned for every possible through and non-

through cut.

1. Your saw is shipped with the blade and riving knife installed

and properly aligned. The riving knife comes installed in the

low, non-through cutting position. Prior to operating your saw,

check to make sure the alignment of the blade to the miter slot

and the riving knife to the blade was not aected by shipping.

To check alignment of the blade and riving knife, see page 28

in the Alignment section of this manual.

2. The riving knife comes installed in the low, non-through cutting

position. To attach the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard assemblies, the riving knife must be in the raised position as shown in Figure 13.

To raise and lower the riving knife, see Riving Knife Height Settings on page 20.

NOTE: Do not attempt to secure the throat plate to the table using the

throat plate leveling screws.

NOTE: When installing riving knife, anti-kickback pawls and blade

guard, blade must be at 90° setting and raised to the maximum

height. See Raising and Lowering Blade, page 18.

NOTE: No portion of table insert shall be above or more than 0,7 mm

below the plane of the table top surface at the infeed side and no

portion of the table insert is below or more than 0,7 mm above the

plane of the table top at the out-feed side.

FIGURE 15B

SAW BLADE GUARD, ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS AND RIVING KNIFE

ASSEMBLY

Your table saw is equipped with a blade guard, antikickback pawls and

riving knife assembly that covers the blade and reduces the possibility

of accidental blade contact. The riving knife is a flat plate that fits

into the cut made by the saw blade and effectively fights kickback

by lessening the tendency of the blade to bind in the cut. Two anti-

kickback pawls are located on the sides of the riving knife that allow

the wood to pass through the blade in the cutting direction but reduce

the possibility of the material being thrown backwards toward the

operator. The blade guard and anti-kickback pawls can only be used

when making through cuts that sever the wood. When making rabbets

and other non-through cuts, the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls

must be removed and riving knife lowered to the non-through cut

position marked on the riving knife.

Use all components of the guarding system (blade guard assembly,

riving knife and anti-kickback pawls) for every operation for which they

can be used including all through-cutting. If you elect not to use any

of these components for a particular application, exercise additional

caution regarding control of the workpiece, the use of push sticks, the

position of your hands relative to the blade, the use of safety glasses,

the means to avoid kickback and all other warnings contained in this

manual and on the saw itself. Replace the guarding systems as soon as

you return to through-cutting operations. Keep the guard assembly in

working order.

KICKBACKS

Kickbacks can cause serious injury. A kickback occurs when a part

of the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip fence,

or other xed object, and rises from the table and is thrown toward

the operator. Kickbacks can be avoided by attention to the following

conditions.

HOW TO REDUCE THE RISK OF KICKBACKS AND PROTECT

YOURSELF FROM POSSIBLE INJURY:

• Be certain that the rip fence is parallel to the sawblade.

• DO NOT rip by applying the feed force to the section of the

workpiece that will become the cut-o (free) piece. Feed force

when ripping should always be applied between the saw blade and

the fence; use a push stick for narrow work, 6 inches (152 mm)

wide or less.

• Keep saw blade guard, riving knife and antikickback assembly in

place and operating properly. The riving knife must be in alignment

with the saw blade and the anti-kickback assembly must stop a

kickback once it has started. Check their action before ripping by

pushing the wood under the antikickback assembly. The teeth

must prevent the wood from being pulled toward the front of

the saw. If any part of assembly is not operational, return to the

nearest authorized service center for repair.

• Plastic and composite materials (like hardboard) may be cut on

your saw. However, since these are usually quite hard and slippery,

the anti-kickback pawls may not stop a kickback. Therefore,

be especially attentive to following proper set up and cutting

procedures for ripping to avoid overheating the saw blade tips as

well as melting the plastic.

• Use saw blade guard, anti-kickback pawls, and riving knife

assembly for every possible operation, including all through-cut

sawing.

• Push the workpiece past the saw blade prior to releasing control.

• NEVER rip a workpiece that is twisted or warped, or does not have

a straight edge to guide along the fence.

• NEVER saw a large workpiece that cannot be controlled.

• NEVER use the fence as a guide or length stop when crosscutting.

• NEVER saw a workpiece with loose knots, aws, nails or other

foreign objects.

• NEVER rip a workpiece shorter than 10 inches (254 mm).

• NEVER use a dull blade. A dull blade should be replaced or

re-sharpened.

15

ASSEMBLY

BLADE GUARD

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,

the blade guard must be in place when

making a through cut.

1. While holding the blade guard assembly (A) in a vertical

position, hook the locating pin (B) at the back end of

the blade guard assembly into the slot at the back edge

of the riving knife.

2. Rotate the blade guard assembly toward the front of

the saw until the metal portion (C) of the blade guard

assembly is parallel to the table as shown in Figure 17.

3. While holding down on the front of the metal portion of

the guard (C) press the blade guard lock lever (D) down

until it snaps into the locked position. Check to make

sure the guard is locked onto the riving knife by pulling

on the guard. If the guard is not locked, the blade

guard lock lever will ip up to the unlocked position.

FIGURE 17

If the metal portion of the blade guard

assembly (C) is not parallel to the table, the

riving knife is not in the raised position. Remove blade guard

assembly and anti-kickback pawls and raise riving knife, then

reinstall the anti-kickback pawls and the blade guard assembly.

Note: Check the blade gaurd for clearances and free

movement.

To remove the blade guard assembly:

1. Lift the blade guard assembly lock lever (D) to the

unlocked position.

2. Rotate the guard back and slide the pin (B) from the

riving knife slot.

RIP FENCE ON-BOARD STORAGE

Attach the handle to the fence cam.

The rip fence slides onto the rear fence rail so that the hook is

under the rear rail and rides on the front guide tube. The fence

locks in place by applying pressure in a downward motion on

the rip fence handle. Rip fence alignment should be checked

prior to using your saw. To check alignment of the rip fence,

see alignment instructions on page 29.

The Delta #36-5000 T2 series contractor table saw comes

with on-board storage for the provided miter gauge, riving

knife, arbor wrench, push stick and fence. There is also

on-board storage for spare saw blades (sold separately). The

miter gauge, spare blade and arbor wrench storage areas are

located on the right side panel of the machine and come pre-

installed.

On-board storage for the fence and the push stick is located on

the left side of the saw.

MITER GAUGE

Insert miter gauge into each miter slot to make sure it slides

freely. See Adjusting the Miter Stops section on page 28 for

adjustment of miter gauge accuracy.

ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS AND BLADE GUARD

ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,

anti-kickback pawls must be in place when

making a through cut.

1. Refer to Figure 16 and locate the anti-kickback pawls

mounting slot (A) in the middle of the top edge of the

riving knife.

2. Slide slot in the middle of the anti-kickback pawls

assembly along the top of the riving knife until the stem

(B) locates the center slot on the riving knife.

3. Depress the stem on the anti-kickback pawls assembly

(B) to allow the assembly to drop into the slot. Push

down on the anti-kickback pawls assembly until it snaps

into place and locks. Release stem. NOTE: Pull up on

the anti-kickback pawls to make sure it is locked in

place.

FIGURE 16

To remove the anti-kickback pawls, depress the stem (B) and

pull the anti-kickback assembly off the riving knife.

FIGURE 18

PREPARING TO CUT

ADJUSTING 90° AND 45° POSITIVE BEVEL STOPS

There are positive stops at each end of the bevel range. To

ensure accurate cuts, the positive stops must be positioned at

exactly at 90° and 45°. The bevel stops are properly adjusted

as shipped. However, for maximum accuracy, you should check

the position of the stops upon assembly and from time to time

to assure that the settings remain satisfactory. To check the

position of the stops and adjust if necessary, refer to Figure 18

and do the following.

1. Release the blade tilt lock knob located on the right side

of the saw by rotating counter clockwise.

2. Rotate the blade tilt handwheel counter clockwise and

tilt the blade to the 0° position until the stop is reached.

3. Using a carpenter’s square, check the angle of the blade

face to the table, as shown in Figure 24b, page 20. If

the blade is at 90° to the table, proceed to Step 6.

4. If the blade is not perpendicular to the table, turn

handwheel to slightly tilt the blade away from the stop

position then adjust the 90° stop by rotating the socket

set screw located in the table top immediately in front

of the left side of throat plate (A). Re-check angle using

the carpenter’s square and continue to adjust until

the blade is at 90 degrees when returned to the stop

position.

5. Rotate the blade tilt wheel counterclockwise until it rests

on the 45° stop. Then repeat Steps 4 and 5, adjusting

the 45° stop by rotating the socket set screw located in

front of the right side of the throat plate. (B)

SECURING SAW TO FLOOR

This saw is designed for portability. Do not

attempt to use the saw to cut a large or

cumbersome workpiece without first taking appropriate steps

to protect against tipping the saw. Examples of appropriate

steps include the use of support tables and/or securing the

saw legs to the floor by replacing the saw feet with connecting

bolts or by attaching the legs to a floor mounted bracket with

u-straps.

Failure to comply with the following warnings

may result in serious personal injury.

• DO NOT use blades rated less than the speed of this tool.

Failure to heed this warning could result in serious personal

injury.

• Turn unit o and disconnect it from power source before

installing and removing accessories, before adjusting and

when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause

injury.

• Prior to operating the saw, make sure you are familiar with

its features and controls, and have made all necessary

adjustments as described below.

• ALWAYS make sure your workpiece is not in contact with

the blade before operating the switch to start the saw.

Blade contact could result in kickback or thrown workpiece.

• To reduce the risk of accidental starting, ALWAYS make

sure the switch is in the o position before plugging saw

into power source.

PREPARING TO CUT

RAISING AND LOWERING THE

BLADE

For most applications, it is recommended that you raise the

blade 1/8-inch (3.2mm) to 1/4-inch (6.4mm) above the top

surface of the workpiece.

Raise or lower the blade with the hand wheel (A) located on

the front of the saw maximum 45° (fig 19).

1. Before raising or lowering the blade, be sure to loosen

the lock knob (B) by turning it counterclockwise.

2. To raise the saw blade, turn the hand wheel clockwise.

To lower the saw blade, turn the hand wheel counter-

clockwise.

3. Tighten lock knob to keep blade at the desired height.

Only a small amount of force is required to lock the

blade raising mechanism securely. Any added force

merely puts unnecessary strain on the locking device.

4. When done operating the saw, and when performing

maintenance, adjustments or repairs, lower blade below

surface of table.

FIGURE 19

TILTING THE BLADE

The blade can be tilted up to 45° to the left using the blade tilt

wheel (A) located on the right side panel of the saw. The angle

of tilt is measured by the bevel gauge on the front of the saw.

To tilt the saw blade:

1. Loosen the lock knob (B) counterclockwise and turn the

hand wheel clockwise. A pointer on the front of the saw

indicates the angle of tilt in ½-degree increments.

2. To lock the saw blade at your desired angle, tighten the

lock knob by rotating it clockwise.

PREPARING TO CUT

CHANGING THE SAW BLADE

• Use only 10-inch (254 mm) diameter blades with 5/8-inch

(16mm) arbor holes, rated at 3,600 rpm or higher, 0.102-

inch (2.6mm) minimum kerf width and 0.073-inch (1.8mm)

maximum body thickness. Use only a saw blade diameter in

accordance with the markings on the saw.

• To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit o and disconnect it

from power source before installing and removing blades

and accessories, before adjusting and when making

repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

1. Remove the throat plate and raise the saw blade to its

maximum height.

2. Push and hold arbor lock button (A) shown in Figure 21.

3. Use included arbor wrench to remove the blade by

turning counter clockwise and retaining nut and ange

(B). Remove old blade.

4. Place the new blade on the arbor with the teeth

pointing down as the blade rotates toward the front of

the saw table.

FIGURE 21

SELECTING AND STORING SAW BLADES

Riving knives must be matched to saw blade dimensions in

order to function effectively.

The saw blade furnished with your new saw is a 10-inch (254

mm) combination blade, used for cross cutting (across the

grain) and ripping (with the grain) through the workpiece. The

arbor hole of the blade is 5/8-inch (16 mm) diameter. This

blade will produce a good quality cut for most applications.

There are many types of blades available to do specific and

special jobs such as cross cut only, rip only, dado cuts thin

plywood, paneling, etc.

Use only saw blades designed for maximum safe operating

speeds of 3,600 RPM or greater.

Saw blades should always be kept sharp. It is recommended

that you locate a reputable sharpening service to sharpen your

blades when needed.

Never stack blades on top of one another to store. Place

material such as cardboard between them to keep the blades

from coming in contact with one another, or place them in

storage drawer.

Abrasive wheels or blades (including diamond) should not be

used on this saw.

RIVING KNIFE POSITION

NOTE: Safety devices, blade guard assembly and anti-kickback

assembly have been removed in Figure 22 in order to show the

location of specific features. When operating the saw, these

safety devices should be in place and working properly.

The riving knife is a flat plate that fits into the cut made by

the saw blade and effectively fights kickback by lessening the

tendency of the blade to bind in the cut. It must be installed

and properly positioned for every through cut and for every

non-through cut unless the riving knife would interfere with

the workpiece.

The riving knife thickness (A) must be greater than the blade

body or plate thickness (B) and less than the kerf or cutting

width (C) as shown in Figure 22. The riving knife provided with

this saw is 2.2mm thick and may be used only with a 10-inch

(254mm) blade with 0.102-inch (2.6mm) minimum kerf width

and 0.073-inch (1.8mm) maximum body thickness. Do not

attempt to use this riving knife with blades that are not within

these dimensions.

PREPARING TO CUT

FIGURE 23

FIGURE 24a

DO NOT operate saw unless riving knife

is securely clamped in the raised position

for through-cutting or the lowered position for non through-

cutting.

1. Vertical Alignment: Place a carpenter’s square on the

table and against the blade face and make sure it

extends up along the riving knife (B) as shown in

gure 24b. The riving knife and blade should touch the

carpenter’s square with no gaps. Be sure the straight

edge goes between the teeth and rests on the blade

face and the riving knife for proper alignment. If the

riving knife and blade are out of horizontal or vertical

alignment, refer to riving knife alignment instructions

on page 30 of this manual.

CHECKING RIVING KNIFE

ALIGNMENT

Before connecting the table saw to the

power source and operating the saw, always

inspect the blade guard assembly and riving knife for proper

alignment and clearance with saw blade. Check the riving

knife alignment after each blade change.

TO CHECK ALIGNMENT:

1. Horizontal Alignment: Lay a straight edge on the table

against blade face (A) and make sure it extends out

along the riving knife (B), as shown in Figure 24a.

The riving knife should just touch the straight edge.

Be sure the straight edge goes between the teeth and

rests on the blade face and the riving knife for proper

alignment.

RIVING KNIFE HEIGHT

SETTINGS

The height of the riving knife should be adjusted based on the

type of cut being made. For all through cuts (when the wood

is completely severed), it should be in the raised position, with

anti-kickback ngers and guard installed. For non-through cuts

(when the blade does not penetrate the top of the workpiece),

the riving knife should be in the lowered position and anti-

kickback ngers and guard removed.

TO RAISE OR LOWER THE RIVING KNIFE:

1. Remove the throat plate and raise blade to the full

height above the table.

2. Locate the Locking Cam Lever near the base of the

riving knife.

3. Rotate the Cam Lever by turning clockwise to unlock

and release the riving knife from its locked position.

4. Using your hand positioned near the top of the knife,

lean the knife outward away fro the two locking pins

beside its middle slot. This now frees the knife to slide

into the upward/ cut through position.

5. Lift the knife upward along the sliding slot until you feel

the new locking pins position.

6. Release the knife and it should snap into its new

position; wiggle if necessary.

7. Return the locking cam lever to the locked position.

If you have done this properly the riving knife will be

aligned with the blade. If it is not retrace your steps

until it does.

NOTE: When adjusting the riving knife up or

down, be sure to pull in a radial motion, as

shown.
