This manual contains information that is important for you to know and understand. This information relates to protecting YOUR

SAFETY and PREVENTING EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help you recognize this information, we use the symbols below. Please

read the manual and pay attention to these sections.

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

Used without the safety alert symbol indicates potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in

property damage.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.

CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS ON YOUR PRODUCT

AND IN THIS MANUAL. SAVE THIS MANUAL. MAKE SURE ALL USERS ARE FAMILIAR WITH ITS

WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS WHEN USING THE TOOL. Improper operation, maintenance or modication of tools

or equipment could result in serious injury and/or property damage.

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 used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

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.

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.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES

THE FOLLOWING TERMS WILL BE USED THROUGHOUT THE MANUAL AND YOU SHOULD BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THEM.

THROUGH-CUT - any cut that completely cuts through the workpiece.

NON-THROUGH CUT - any cut that does not completely cut through

the workpiece.

PUSH STICK - 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 - when the saw blade binds in the cut or the workpiece binds

between the blade and the fence and the workpiece is thrust back toward

the operator.

Terminology

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY.

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.

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.

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 to fast can cause heating and damage to blade or

workpiece.

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.

FREEHAND - 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 - blind cuts in the workpiece made by either raising

the blade through the workpiece or lowering the workpiece down to the

blade.

RE-SAWING - ipping the workpiece to complete a cut the saw is not

capable of making in one pass.

COVE CUTTING - an operation where the work is fed at an angle across

the blade. (Also known as “coving”).

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, rises from the table and is thrown toward the operator.

The risk of kickback can be minimized by attention to the following

instructions.

HOW TO REDUCE THE RISK OF KICKBACKS AND PROTECT

YOURSELF FROM POSSIBLE INJURY:

Be certain that the rip fence is parallel to the saw blade.

• 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 all narrow work that is 6 inches

(152 mm) wide or less.

• Keep saw blade guard, riving knife and anti-kickback 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 anti-kickback 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.

TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES

Your table saw is equipped with a blade guard, anti-kickback pawls and

riving knife assembly that covers the blade and reduces the possibility

of accidental blade contact. The riving knife is a at plate that ts into

the cut made by the saw blade and eectively prevents 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 riving

knife can be used in two positions. It must be raised to the through-

cut position before attaching anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

Both positions are marked on the riving knife. 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

SAW BLADE GUARD, ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS AND RIVING KNIFE ASSEMBLY

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.

• 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.

• 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.

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

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

a 120-volt, 60-HZ alternating current. See instructions

below regarding proper connections for your saw. 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.

Before connecting the machine to the power line, make

sure the switch 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.

POWER SOURCE

EXTENSION CORDS

Never use a damaged extension cord.

Check extension cords before each use.

If damaged, replace immediately. Touching the damaged

area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious

injury.

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

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 the “MINIMUM GAUGE EXTENSION CORD”

table, show on the right, to determine the proper

length and gauge for any extension cord used to

supply power to your tool.

• Use properly rated extension cords. When using an

extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough

to carry the current required by your machine. An

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage,

resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table

shows the minimum 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.

• When working outdoors, use an extension cord

designed for outdoor use.

NOTE: Use only 10"(254mm) diameter blades with 5/8" (16mm) arbor

holes, rated at 5,000 rpm of higher, 0.10" (2.6 mm) min. kerf width

and 0.073" (1.85 mm) max body thickness. Only use 10 in. blades

designed for wood cutting.

POSITION THE RIVING KNIFE

A riving knife is a at plate that ts into the cut made by the saw blade

(the “kerf”). It is intended to reduce the risk of kickback by holding the

kerf open and lessening the tendency of the workpiece to pinch the

blade.

To reduce the risk of serious injury, The riving

knife must be installed for every "thru cut" and for

every "non-thru cut" unless the riving knife would interfere with the

cut.

• The riving knife provided with the table saw shall be thicker than

the body of the matching saw blades provided with the table saw

but thinner than the kerf width of that saw blades.

• Always use a blade with the correct thickness to match the riving

knife. (0.10” (2.6mm) min. kerf width and 0.073” (1.85mm) max

body thickness)

• The riving knife must be securely positioned in the “up” or “thru

cut” position when using the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Make sure the riving knife is properly aligned to the blade see

Riving Knife Alignment section. Refer to FIGURE (11) & (12)

This saw is shipped with its riving knife (E) installed in the lowered or

“non-thru cut” position. This riving knife matches the thickness of the

blade that is shipped with your saw. To install the anti-kickback pawls

and the blade guard assembly, rst raise the riving knife from the

lowered or “non-thru cut” position to the raised or "thru cut" position,

as follows:

1. With the blade assembly to the highest possible position,

carefully reach alongside the blade and raise the riving knife

locking lever up to unlock the riving knife.

2. Gently move the riving knife to the right to release it from the

lock pins in the riving knife assembly.

3. Slide the riving knife up and forward until you feel the lock

pins engage the riving knife in the “thru cut” position. When

properly aligned in this position, the “thru cut" position line on

the riving knife will be parallel to and level with the table.

4. Return the riving knife lock lever to the lock position.

5. Make sure the riving knife is securely installed and properly

aligned with the blade.

NOTE: For "non-thru cuts", lower the riving knife to the “non-thru

cut” position using the same procedure. In this case the “non-thru cut"

position line should be parallel to and level with the table.

PLATE

Insert the rear tab of the throat plate (G) (the end with the

wear plates) under the surface of the table, and snap the front

end in place (FIGURE 13).

Check that the throat plate is properly adjusted to the table.

Front of throat plate should be level or slightly below the

surface of the table and rear of the throat plate should be level

or slightly above the surface of the table (FIGURE 13).

WEAR WEAR

PLATEPLATE

If adjustment is needed, adjust the (4) Phillips set screws

(FIGURE 14) up or down as needed. Repeat this process as

needed until the throat plate is level.

To remove throat plate, lower blade below tabletop, then

carefully slide the throat plate from out from the rear of the

table to the front, keeping the blade centered within the slot

on the throat plate.

It is important that the throat plate is

properly adjusted to the table. This ensures

that the work piece is not caught on the throat plate or the

table when feeding the work piece through the blade during a

cut.

To remove throat plate, lower blade below tabletop, then

carefully slide the throat plate from out from the rear of the

table to the front, keeping the blade centered within the slot

on the throat plate. (Fig. 14B)

While holding the blade guard assembly (F) in a vertical position, as

shown in FIGURE 16, pull the blade guard assembly pin all the way up

into the rear slot on the riving knife.

Rotate the blade guard assembly all the way down so that the arms

are parallel to the table (FIGURE 16a). Then lock the blade guard in

place by depressing the lock tab (FIGURE 16b).

Rip Fence

This saw is equipped with a three-position fence alignment system to

allow for quick and accurate cuts. Depending on which type of cut is

required use each of the three positions as listed below (FIGURE 17).

Note: All scales are used to measure the distance from the inner most

surface of the fence, to the face of the blade. The scale should read

zero as the fence is touching the blade and should increase as the

table is extended and the fence is moved further away from the blade.

• Position 1 (P1): Uses the Blue scale for Left Rip Cuts of 0-15

inches. Use Ruler indicator (FIGURES 19 and 19a).

• Position 2 (P2): Uses the White scale with black numbering for

Right Rip Cuts of 0-18 inches. Use ruler indicator (FIGURE 18b).

• Position 3 (P3): Uses the Black scale with white numbering for

Right Rip Cuts of 10-28 inches. Use ruler indicator (FIGURE 18a).

1. Determine which position you will require using the table

above.

2. Lower the saddles on each end of the fence onto the xed

stops located on the table saw rail. (FIGURES 17a and 17b).

3. Engage the fence lock located at the front of the fence

(FIGURE 17).

the front panel of the saw.

To turn the saw ON lift the switch. Press the switch down

to turn the saw OFF (FIGURE 21).

When not in use, the saw should be turned o and the

power switch locked out to prevent unauthorized use. To

lock out power switch, use a standard long shackle lock,

with a shackle that is at least 2-

” (70mm) long and no

more than

-inch (7mm) thick.

Failure to comply with the following warnings may result in serious personal injury.

READ ENTIRE MANUAL. In addition to reading these operating instructions, it is important to read and understand

the entire manual before operating this saw. Follow all applicable instructions regarding assembly, preparation, and

adjustment prior to making any cuts and comply with all safety rules and warnings in this section and elsewhere

throughout this manual.

EACH TIME YOU USE THE SAW, RUN THROUGH THE

FOLLOWING CHECKLIST:

• Are the power source and power connections adequate for

the saw?

• Are the saw and work area free of clutter and by-standers?

• Is the blade tight and properly aligned?

• Does the riving knife thickness match the blade

requirements?

• Are the blade and riving knife properly aligned?

• Is the operator qualied to make the cut and familiar with

all of the relevant safety rules, warnings and instructions

included in this manual?

• Is the operator and everyone in proximity to the saw

wearing appropriate eye, hearing and respiratory

equipment?

• Are the bevel angle and height adjustment knobs locked in

the proper position?

• Is the blade set at the proper height?

• If ripping, is the rip fence parallel to the blade and securely

locked in position?

• If crosscutting, is the miter gauge knob tight?

• If making through cuts with a standard blade, are the

blade guard riving knife and anti-kickback pawls properly

attached and properly functioning with both guards

contacting the table surface?

• Is there proper clearance and support for the workpiece as

it enters and leaves the blade?

• Are any cutting aids needed? If so, are they in place, or

within reach for proper use?

• The use of attachments and accessories not approved by

the manufacturer may result in injury.

• Replace or sharpen the anti-kickback pawls when the

points become dull.

• Make sure saw is stable and cut can be accomplished

without tipping the saw.

• Never use fence and miter gauge together without using a

cut o block (gauge) as described in the Cutting Aids and

Accessories section of this manual.

• The proper throat plate must be in place at all times.

• 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.

• Never perform freehand cutting, plunge cutting, re-sawing

or cove cutting.

AVOID KICKBACK

A kickback can occur when the workpiece pinches the blade, or

binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other xed

object. This can cause the workpiece to rise from the table

and/or be thrown back toward the operator. See instructions

for reducing the risk of kickback, in the Table Saw Safety Rules

section of this manual.

IF KICKBACK OCCURS, turn the saw “OFF” and verify proper

alignment of the blade, riving knife and miter gauge or rip

fence, and the proper functioning of the riving knife, anti-

kickback assembly and blade guard assembly before resuming

work.

STORAGE

MAKING CUTS

• Never touch the free end of the workpiece or a free piece

that is cut o, while the power is on and/or the saw blade is

rotating. Blade contact or binding may occur, resulting in a thrown

workpiece

• When sawing a long workpiece or a panel, use a work support,

such as a sawhorse, rollers or outfeed table at the same height as

the table surface of the saw.

• Never try to pull the workpiece back with the blade turning. If you

need to pull the workpiece back or lift it o the table, turn the

switch o, allow the blade to stop, raise the anti-kickback teeth on

each side of the riving knife if necessary, and slide the workpiece

out.

• Before connecting the table saw to the power source or operating

the saw, always inspect the blade guard assembly and riving

knife for proper alignment and clearance with saw blade. Check

alignment after each change of beveling angle.

• A rip fence should ALWAYS be used for ripping operations to

prevent loss of control and personal injury. Always lock the fence

to the rail. NEVER perform a ripping operation freehand.

• When making bevel cuts, place the fence on the right side of the

blade so that the blade is tilted away from the fence and hands.

Keep hands clear of the blade and use a push stick to feed the

workpiece unless the workpiece is large enough to allow you to

hold it more than 6 inches (152 mm) from the blade.

• Before leaving the saw unattended, lock out power switch, or take

other appropriate measures to prevent unauthorized use of the

saw.

• This saw is designed to cut wood, plywood, composite decking

material, and certain plastics when using the correct blade.

• DO NOT use this saw for cutting metal, tile or other materials not

listed on your blade.

Failure to comply with the following warnings may result in serious personal injury.

Cross Cut

Beveled Cross Cut Beveled Rip Cut Compound Miter Cut

Mitered CrosscutRip Cut

• Always make sure the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls are

in place and working properly when making these cuts to avoid

possible injury.

• Do not use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to

heed this warning could result in personal injury.

• To avoid kickback, make sure one side of the workpiece is securely

against the rip fence during any rip cut, and hold the workpiece

rmly against the miter gauge during any miter cut.

• Do not attempt compound miter cuts, with blade beveled and

miter fence angled, until you are thoroughly familiar with the basic

cuts and understand how to avoid kickback.

• Avoid bevel rip cuts with majority of material on left side of blade.

MAKING CUTS

RIP CUTS

BEVEL RIPPING

Bevel ripping is the same as ripping except the bevel angle (A)

is set to an angle other than 0°. When making a bevel rip cut,

place the fence on the right side of the blade so that the blade

is tilted away from the fence and hands.(FIGURE 24).

1. Remove miter gauge.

2. Make sure bevel angle is set to 0°.

3. Set blade to correct height for workpiece.

4. Install rip fence and lock it down parallel with and at

desired distance from blade.

5. Keep fingers at least 6 inches from the blade at all

times. When the hand cannot be safely put between the

blade and the rip fence, select a larger workpiece, or

use a push stick and other cutting aids, as needed, to

control the workpiece.

6. Make sure the workpiece is clear of the blade (at least 1

inch or 25mm away) before starting the saw.

7. Turn saw on.

8. Hold the workpiece at on the table and against the

fence (A). The workpiece must have a straight edge

against the fence and must not be warped, twisted or

bowed. See proper hand position in (FIGURE 23).

9. Let blade build up to full speed before moving

workpiece into the blade.

10. Both hands can be used while starting the cut as long

as hands remain 6 inches from the blade.

11. Keep the workpiece against the table and fence and

slowly feed the workpiece rearward all the way through

the saw blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the

workpiece into the blade.

12. Use the push stick and any other cutting aids, as

needed, to hold the workpiece against the table and

fence, and push the workpiece past the blade. A push

stick is included with this saw, and instructions are

included to make additional push sticks and other

cutting aids.

13. Do not push or hold onto the free or cut-o side of the

workpiece.

14. Continue pushing the workpiece until it is clear of

the blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the

workpiece into the blade.

15. When cut is complete, turn saw o. Wait for blade to

come to a complete stop before removing workpiece

from table.

FIGURE 23

FIGURE 24

• Rip cutting: Rip cutting is performed predominantly in a parallel direction with the grain of the wood.

• Make sure blade is parallel to miter gauge slot prior to cutting. Instructions for adjustment on page 20.

MAKING CUTS

Miter crosscutting is the same as crosscutting except the miter

angel (B) is set to an angle other than 90˚ (FIGURE 26).

• Miter angles more than 45˚ may force the blade guard

assembly into the saw blade causing damage to the blade

guard assembly and personal injury. Before starting the

motor, test the operation by feeding the workpiece into

the blade guard assembly. If the blade guard assembly

contacts the blade, place the workpiece under the blade

guard assembly but not touching the blade - before starting

the motor.

• Certain workpiece shapes, such as molding may not lift

the blade guard assembly properly. With the power o,

feed the workpiece slowly into the blade guard area and

until the workpiece touches the blade. If the blade guard

assembly contacts the blade, place the workpiece under

the blade guard assembly - but not touching the blade -

before starting the motor.

CROSSCUTTING

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING

MITER CROSSCUTTING

Bevel crosscutting is the same as crosscutting except the bevel

angle (A) is set to an angle other than 0°. When making a

bevel crosscut, place the miter gauge in the right miter slot

so that the blade is tilted away from the gauge and hands

(FIGURE 25).

FIGURE 25

FIGURE 26

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

crosscutting.

• The cut-off piece must never be conned in any through-

sawing (cutting completely through the workpiece)

operation—to prevent pinching blade which may result in a

thrown workpiece and possibly injury.

• When using a block as a cut-off gauge, the block must be

at least

-inch (19mm) thick. It is very important that the

rear end of the block be secured in a position where the

workpiece is clear of the block before it enters the blade to

prevent binding of the workpiece.

You can use the miter gauge in either table slot on non-bevel

cuts. To increase surface area of miter gauge face, add an

auxiliary face (See Cutting Aids section on of this manual.)

TO MAKE A CROSSCUT, REFER TO FIGURE 25 AND

FOLLOW THIS PROCESS:

1. Remove rip fence.

2. Make sure bevel angle is set to 0°.

3. Set blade to correct height for workpiece.

4. Place miter gauge in either miter slot.

5. Set miter gauge to 90° and tighten miter gauge lock

knob.

6. Hands must remain at least 6 inches from blade

throughout entire cut. If workpiece is too small to keep

hands at least 6 inches away from the blade, select

a larger workpiece, or attach an auxiliary face to the

miter gauge and attach workpiece to auxiliary face, For

instructions about making auxiliary faces, see Cutting

Aids section of this manual.

7. Make sure the workpiece is clear of the blade - at least

1 inch or 25mm away - before starting the saw.

8. Turn saw on.

9. Let blade build up to full speed before moving

workpiece into the blade.

10. Hand closest to blade should be placed on miter gauge

lock knob and hand farthest from blade should hold

workpiece firmly against the miter gauge face. Do

not push or hold onto the free or cut-o side of the

workpiece.

11. Slowly feed the workpiece rearward all the way through

the saw blade. Do not overload the motor by forcing the

workpiece into the blade.

12. When cut is complete, turn saw o. Wait for blade to

come to a complete stop before removing cut o piece

from table.

• Cross cutting: Cross cutting is performed predominantly in

a perpendicular direction with the grain of the wood.

• Make sure blade is parallel to miter gauge slot prior to

cutting. Instructions for adjustment on page 20.

MAKING CUTS

COMPOUND MITER CUTS

LARGE PANEL CUTS

This is a combination of bevel crosscutting and mitering.

Refer to FIGURE 27 and follow the instructions for both

bevel crosscutting and mitering. Remember to use the

right miter slot on the right side of the blade for all bevel

cuts.

Place workpiece supports at the same height as the

saw table behind saw to support the cut workpiece, and

alongside of saw, as needed. Depending on shape of

panel, use rip fence or miter gauge to control workpiece.

If a workpiece is too large to use either a rip fence or a

miter gauge, it is too large for this saw.

NON-THROUGH CUTS

The use of a non-through cut is essential to cutting grooves,

and rabbets. Non-through cuts can be made using a standard

blade having a diameter of 10 inches. Non-through cuts are the

only type of cuts that should be made without the blade guard

assembly installed. Make sure the blade guard assembly is

reinstalled upon completion of this type of cut.

• When making non-through cuts, follow all applicable

warnings and instructions listed below in addition to those

listed above for the relevant through cut.

• When making a non-through cut, blade is covered by

workpiece during most of cut. Be alert to exposed blade at

start and nish of every cut.

• Never feed wood with hands when making any non-

through cuts such as rabbets or grooves. Always use miter

gauge, push blocks or push sticks, and featherboards

where appropriate.

• In addition to this section, read the appropriate section

which describes the type of through or cut. For example,

if your non-through cut is a straight cross cut, read and

understand the section on straight cross cuts before

proceeding.

• Once all non-through cuts are completed, unplug saw and

return riving knife to through cut position. Install anti-

kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Carefully follow the instructions accompanying any

specialized blades for proper installation, set up and

operation.

1. Unplug saw.

2. Unlock bevel lock.

3. Adjust bevel angle to 0°.

4. Lock bevel lock.

5. Remove blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.

6. Place riving knife in “lowered” position. (See RIVING

KNIFE ADJUSTMENT Section).

7. Set blade to correct depth for workpiece.

8. Depending on shape and size of wood, use either rip

fence or miter gauge.

9. Plug saw into power source and turn saw on.

10. Let blade build up to full speed before moving

workpiece into blade.

11. Always use push blocks, push sticks, and/or

featherboards when making non-through cuts to reduce

the risk of serious injury.

12. When cut is made, turn saw o. Wait for blade to come

to a complete stop before removing workpiece.

13. When cut is complete, re-adjust riving knife to position

as detailed on page 13.

HEELING (PARALLELING) BLADE

TO MITER GAUGE GROOVE

• Blade (A) must be parallel to miter gauge groove so

that wood does not bind, resulting in kickback. Failure

to do so could result in serious personal injury.

• To reduce risk of injury from kickback, align rip fence

to blade (A) following any blade adjustments.

DO NOT loosen any screws for this adjustment until

alignment has been checked with a square to be sure

adjustments are necessary. Once screws are loosened, items

must be reset.

Note: Unplug saw. Remove blade guard and anti-kickback

pawls. Raise the blade (A) by turning height adjusting wheel.

1. Mark beside one of blade teeth at front of blade (A).

Place a combination square even with front of saw table

and side of saw blade (A) as shown.

2. Turn blade (A) so that marked tooth is at back. Move

combination square to the rear and again measure the

distance. If the distances are the same, blade (A) is

square.
