can happen if you reach around the blade to
the end with the anti-kickback
pawls, (outfeed end), and try to hold-down or pull the
workpiece through to complete the cut. Your
fingers, hand, or arm can be cut off by the
blade if the workpiece

Bevel

Lock

The bevel lock is used to hold the blade at
various angles to the table. To unlock the
bevel lock, move tile lock to the right. Always
hold the motor when you unlock the bevel

or injured by the arbor shaft or blade.
Hold the motor when you unlock the
bevel lock.

There are three pre-set miter angles at 45 °,
0°, and -45 '1. You will feel the radial arm
snap into position at these miter angles. To
unlock the arm when it is in one of these positions, pull the miter lock all the way to the

Rip Lock

Lock

The rip lock is used to hold the motor and
blade at a fixed position along the radial arm.
It is used during ripp{ng to hold the blade a
desired distance from the fence while the
workpiece
is fed through. It is used before
and after each crosscut to keep the blade
from moving forward on its own.

The swivel lock is used to hold the blade in
the cros,_cut, in-rip, or out-rip positions, and
to position the blade for molding or edging.
To unlock the swivel lock, stand facing the
saw handle and pull the swivel toc/," toward
you, (Figure 30)

To unlock the rip lock, pull the handle

Always lock the miter, swivel and bevel locks

These adjustments
must be done in order,
before using your saw for the first time. If
they are not done in order the saw will not

Often a series of steps

more than once in order to

Lower Blade Guard Safety Information ...............
WARNING

IMPORTANT
The following safety information
and instructions apply to all blades and accessories.

Remove the lower blade guard for ALL other
types of cuts except repetitive 90 ° crosscutting.
Using the lower guard other than for repetitive
90 ° crosscutting will increase the risk of certain
hazards:

The lower blade guard is required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) if the radial saw is used commercially.
The lower blade guard is intended for use only in
repetitive 90 ° crosscutting.

During rip and bevel cuts the workpiece or
narrow cut-off pieces can be pinched between
the guard and the blade. Workpiece or cut-off
pieces can kickback.

Repetitive 90 ° Crosscutting is the repeated
and continuous cutting of many pieces of
lumber to the same length with the saw
placed in the 90 ° crosscut position.
In repetitive

• Workpiece or cut-off pieces can be violently

and

CAUTION

• the guard is resting on the table so the leading
and trailing teeth of the blade are not exposed
from the sides.

The lower blade guard can get caught or jam in
fence or table kerfs.

The lower blade guard ONLY provides protection against minor cuts and bruises that occur
from contact with the fiat sides of the spinning
blade.

Lubrication
Your saw is precision built and should be
kept properly lubricated. Before describing
the various points which may periodically require lubrication, it is more important to first
mention the points which should not be lubricated.

When you receive your new Craftsman radial
saw, it requires no lubrication.
The radial
saw has been partially aligned and all bearings are lubricated
and sealed for life. In
time, however, in order to keep your saw in
perfect working order and accurate, it will be
necessa U to lubricate and realign. In fact
your radial saw needs more of a cleaning
than a lubrication.

Do not lubricate the following:
