4
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”).
6
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.

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

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).

-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.

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
3
/
4
-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).
