Safety
This manual has safety information and
instructions to help users eliminate or reduce
the risk of accidents and injuries, including:
i. Severe cuts, and loss of fingers or other
body parts due to contact with the blade.
2. Eye impact injuries, and blindness, from
being hit by a thrown workpiece, workpiece
chips or pieces of blade.

M_or Hazards
Three major hazards are associated with
using the radial arm saw for ripping. They
are outfeed zone hazard, kickback, and
wrong way feed.
This section only briefly explains these haz-
ards. Read the ripping and crosscutting safe-
ty sections for more detailed explanations of
these and other hazards.
Outfeed Zone Hazard
Safety Symbol and Signal Words
An exclamation mark inside a triangle is the
safety alert symbol.
It is used to draw' attention to safety info_Tna-
tion in the manual and on the saw. It is
followed by a signal word, DANGER,
WARNING, or CAUTION, which tells the
level of risk:
,_ DANGER: means if the safety infor-
mation is not followed someone will be seri-
ously injured or killed.
A
,_ WARNING: means if the safety infor-
mation is not followed someone could be
seriously injured or killed.
A
,_ CAUTION: means if the safety infor-
mation is not followed someone might be
inj are&
Read and follow all safety information
and instructions.
Ai_kDANGER
If you reach around the blade to the outfeed
side when ripping, and try to hold down or
pull the workpiece through to complete a
cut, the rotational force of the blade will pull
your hand back into the blade.
Fingers will be cut off.
Read and follow the information and
instructions under ripping safety.
Safety
Kickback Hazard
Kickback is the uncontrolled propelling of
the workpiece back toward the user during
ripping.
The cause of kickback is the binding or
pinching of the blade in the workpiece.
Several conditions can cause the blade to
bind or pinch.
When a workpiece kicks back, it could hit
hard enough to cause internal organ injury,
broken bones, or death.
Read and follow the information and
instructions under ripping safety.
WARNING
KICKBACKIII_
Wrong Way Feed Hazard
Wrong way feed is ripping by feeding the
workpiece into the outfeed side of the blade.
The rotational force of the blade can grab
and pull the workpiece.
Before you can let go or pull back, the force
could pull your hand along with the work-
piece into the blade. Fingers or hand could
be cut off.
The propelled workpiece could hit a by-
stander, causing severe impact injury or
death.
Read and follow the information and
instructions under ripping safety.

Wrong Way Feed
Safety
Guard Function and Features
The guard is a very important safety feature,
designed to reduce the risk of injury associ-
ated with blade contact. Install the guard
correctly. Follow the specific instructions
in the ripping and crosscutting sections to
set and use the guard correctly for each
ty pe of cut.
Guard Features Include:
1 A non-moveable metal upper portion,
(Upper Guard) which is fastened to the
motor by the guard clamp screw, and which
fully covers the upper half of the blade.
2. A moveable clear plastic portion,
(Plastic Lower Guard) which partially cov-
ers the lower half of the blade. It protects
against contact with the side of the blade
during crosscutting when blade is in its rear-
most position and the guard is resting on the
table, so the leading and trailing teeth of the
blade are not exposed. It also protects
against contact with the outfced side of the
blade during ripping, and acts as a barrier to
prevent wrong way feed.
3 A squeeze trigger in the saw handle to
rally raise the clear plastic guard at the start
of a crosscut. Note: 1"his' is necessary
because the guard will not automatically
raise to clear the fence.
4. A hold down to be lowered to just clear
the top of the workpiece for ripping. It acts
a_ a barrier to the infeed side of the blade,
keeps the workpiece from fluttering, and
acts as a sawdust deflector. It is
locked/unlocked by the hold down knob.
5 A riving knife to be lowered to the table
for ripping. It keeps the workpiece kerf
open, thereby reducing blade pinching and
the risk of kickback. It also acts as a barrier
to the hazardous outfeed side and prevents
wrong way feed. It is locked/unlocked by

the pawls/riving knife knob. When lowered
for crosscutting, it acts as a barrier to the
leading edge of the blade.
6. Set of pawls to be lowered to the work-
piece surface for ripping. They allow the
workpiece to pass freely from infeed to out-
feed side, but help stop the kickback motion
from ouffeed to infeed side by grabbing into
the workpiece surface. Pawls must be re-set
each time a different thickness workpiece is
cut.
7. A guard tab to manually raise the plastic
guard at the start of ripping unusual work-
pieces whose size/shape do not cause the
guard to raise automatically.

Hazards Associated with Clear
Portion of Guard
The following safety information applies to
all blades and accessories.
WARNING
Clear plastic portion of guard will
not provide any protection during
crosscutting if blade is pulled over
your hand, or your hand enters
blade path from front or rear of
blade. Fingers or hand can be cut or
cut off.
_CAUTION
Clear plastic portion of guard can
get caught or jam in fence or table
kerfs. Read and follow the warning
on the guard:
,_WARNING:
TO AVOID INJURY
SHUT OFF POWER
BEFORE CLEARING A
JAMMED LOWER GUARD
WARNING
Clear plastic guard will increase risk of certain hazards:
• During rip and bevel cuts, narrow
cut-off pieces can be pinched
between guard and blade. Cut-off
pieces can kickback.
•In bevel position blade teeth are
fully exposed. Fingers or hand can
be cut off.
• Cut off pieces can jam between
guard and blade. Turn saw off and
wait for blade to stop before freeing
jammed guard or blade.
•Workpiece or cut-off pieces can
be violently thrown by blade. Wear
safety goggles. Stand out of work-
piece path.
Safety Instructions

e. Tighten the set screw.
Note: The clamp bolt has a left handed
thread. Therefore, to increase the clamping
effect, rotate the bevel lock lever -when
used as a wrench -from right to left, or
clockwise when viewed from above. If you
accidentally rotate it the wrong way and dis-
engage the bolt from the matching steel nut,
it will be necessary to remove the Yoke
Handle, and Bevel Scale, in order to rein-
stall the bolt into the nut.

This adjustment serves two purposes;
• To remove any looseness between the col-
umn tube and column support to insure
accurate cuts; and
•To allow the column tube to raise and
lower smoothly.
Note: The following adjustment is very criti-
cal All future alignment procedures rely on
this adjustment being performed correctly.
All looseness must be removed.
1. Index and lock arm at 0 ° Miter.
While holding the arm with one hmad,
hold fingers of other hand as shown,
between column tube and column sup-
port. Apply gentle side-to-side pressure at
end of arm. Any side-to-side or rotational
movement can be felt with finger at arrow
location. If looseness exists, the following
adjustments are required.

Adjusting Carriage Bearings
ff the carriage bearings are loose it not only
allows the saw blade to move up, down, and
sideways but also results in inaccurate cuts.
Before following these steps make sure the
tracks (steel rods) and carriage bearings have
been cleaned by wiping them with a clean
cloth.
When properly adjusted, the top and bottom
face of all four bearing grooves should be in
contact with the arm tracks for their entire
length and carriage should roll smoothly
with some resistance.
To test for looseness between bearings and
tracks on radial arm, perform the following
steps.
1. Remove left-hand carriage cover. (2
screws)
2. Push the carriage to its full rearward posi-
tion.
3. Grasp front carriage bearing as shown and
hold as tight as possible. At the same time
pull carriage forward. If you can stop the
bearing from turning, it requires adjusting.
4. Check rear bearing in the same manner.
5. Adjust as follows:
a. Use two 1/2" wrenches to loosen nut
just enough to permit the eccentric screw
to turn.
b. Rotate the eccentric screw a partial turn
Oefl or right) as required to take up loose-
ness.
c. Hold the head of eccentric screw in the
position established in the preceding step
and tighten nut on underside of carriage.
Correct adjustment exists when you can-
not keep the bearings from turning.
However, excessive bearing pressure will
cause difficult operation and rapid wear.
d. Install carriage cove1;

Positioning Table Supports!Installing Front Table/Leveling Front Table
Note: The goal in aztjusting the table supports and leveling the front table is to make sure that the
table is the same distance from the radial arm at all points. This ensures that when the table and
blade are installed the clearance between them will be equal at all points.
Positioning Table Supports
1. Release bevel lock lever, move bevel
index lever to the left and rotate the motor to
position arbor shaft down. Lock bevel lock.
2. Unlock and hold nfiter/arm lock lever in
index release position as shown. Position
arm against left stop (approximately 50 °
miter). Loosen carriage lock knob and posi-
tion arbor shaft directly over left hand chan-
nel.
Note: For safety reasons in accordance with
the UL standard, stops have been provided
to prevent 360 °rotation of the radial arm.
3. Slide the arbor wrench handle between
end of motor shaft and table support to act as
a feeler gauge. Carefully lower the motor
with elevation crank until the end of shaft is
just touching the arbor wrench. The wrench
should slide back and forth with only slight
resistance. Tighten screw "'A".

This concludes adjusting your saw where you have removed "all"looseness" or slack between the
different parts of the saw. The next section deals with actually aligning the sawblade to get accurate
cuts.
27
Alignment
This section applies to all three models cov-
ered by this manual.
The saw and blade must be aligned correctly
for two reasons:
1) to prevent binding of the blade and work-
piece, which can cause jams, kickbacks, or
thrown workpieces;
2) to make accurate cuts.
Alignment and Adjustment Steps
The following alignments and adjustments
must be made in order. If you miss an
adjustment, you must go back, make the
missed adjustment, and repeat all steps from
that point on.
These adjustments are like fine tuning a
piece of equipment. Often, a series of steps
must be repeated more than once in order to
get the adjustment right. There are many
adjustments to make. Because some adjust-
ments may be awkward, you may want to
ask someone to help you.
Before you start, make sure the framing
square is true.
Square Crosscut Travel
The goal of this adjustment is to make accu-
rate crosscuts. To do so, the radial arm must
be square to the fence, otherwise, there will
be a slight miter angle in all crosscuts.
Squaring cross cut travel.
1. Index but do not lock arm at 0 ° miter.
2. Install saw blade as shown. Motor shaft
has left hand threads.
Note: Do ru-)tovertighten arbor nut. Use the
arbor wrench to just "snug" it.
,_WARNING
Plugging in saw during alignment
could result in accidental start-up
and severe cuts from contact with
spinning blade.
Do not plug in saw at anytime dur-
ing alignment or adjustment.
Plug in saw only when it is to be
used. Check Framlng Square

4. Place a framing square on the table, as
shown, with one leg of square t-manly against
rear edge of front table. Position the blade
and square until the leg of the square just
contacts a tooth of the blade. Mark this
tooth.
5. When the carriage is moved slowly back
and forth on the arm, the marked tooth
should just touch the square at NI points. If
marked tooth moves into or away from
square the following adjustments are
required:
a. Loosen (3) 3/8 - 16 set screws in arm
latch at rear of arm.
b. Move the arm in direction to make
marked tooth follow edge of square when
the saw blade is moved "alongarm in a
"cross cut" manner.

Note: This squaring of the cross cut travel
will simultaneously set both of the 45 °miter
index positions.

Square Blade to Table for
Crosscutting
The goal of this adjustment is to make the
blade square to the table so that crosscuts
will be accurate; otherwise all crosscuts will
have a slight bevel angle.
1. Lower blade until it just dears front table.
Lock bevel, miter, rip, and yoke locks.
2. Place a framing square on the table with
the short leg against the saw blade and long
leg parallel to fence. Do not allow the square
to rest against a "set-out" tooth; it must rest
flat against the blade side.
3. If the saw blade is square with the table
top (no visible gap appears between the saw
blade and square) no adjustment is required.
Set bevel indicator to 0 ° reading. If the
square does not touch the saw blade as
shown (with square leg held firmly against

Align Riving Knife to Blade
The goal of this adjustment is to position the
riving knife directly in line with the blade.
Riving knife alignment is an important safe-
ty factor. The riving knife rides in the kerf of
the cut workpiece during ripping to keep the
two sides of the workpiece from pinching on
the blade. Blade pinching is a cause of kick-
back.
1. Lock yoke in in-rip position (blade
towards column, motor towards front of

Crosscutting Defined
Crosscutting is cutting a workpiece to
length. The workpiece is held fh-mly against
the fence, and the blade is pulled through the
work_iece to make the cut. Straight, bevel,
miter, and compound cuts can be made.
Crosscutting Safety
The hazards associated with crosscutting
include: exposed blade teeth, rolling car-
riage, and thrown workpiece. This section
explains these hazards and tells how to avoid
them or reduce the risk of their happening.
Read this section before making any type
of crosscut. Follow these steps every time
you make a crosscut.
Exposed Blade Teeth
WARNING
During crosscutting, blade teeth
can be exposed. To reduce risk of
having fingers, hand or arm cut off:
_/Correctly install and use guard.
_/Lower pawls or riving knife to clear
fence or workpiece, whichever is high-
er, by 1/4". Lowered pawls or riving
knife act as partial barrier to front of
blade.
"4Keep hands away from blade and out of
blade path. Keep hand holding down
workpiece at least 8" from blade.
Blade can come off table edge beyond
30 ° left miter position. Use right miter
position whenever possible.
"4Do not cut freehand. You will not be
able to control workpiece.
_/If blade jams, turn off saw, remove yel-
low key, then free blade.

WARNING
When saw is turned on, blade can
suddenly come forward. To reduce
risk of this happening:
",]Keep one hand on saw handle when
turning saw on.
x]Adjust leveling feet to make sure radial
ann slants slightly toward rear.
Thrown Workpiece
,_ CAUTION
Workpiece could be picked up by
spinning blade and thrown. You
might be hit by thrown workpiece.
To reduce risk of thrown workpiece:
",]Make sure installed fence is at least half
as high as the workpiece, and never less
than 3/4".
x/Start and finish cut with blade in rear-
most position, behind fence.
",/Firmly hold workpiece flat on table and
up against fence. Cut only one work-
piece at a time.
_/Pull blade through workpiece only far
enough to complete cut, and never
more than half the diameter of blade.
Do not touch or move workpieces until
blade has stopped spinning.
_/Use length stop only on end of work-
piece which is held down.
_/Use table extensions to support work-
pieces that extend beyond table.
45
Crosscutting
Crosscut Kerfs
A kerf or shallow cut is needed in the table
and fence to serve as a path for the blade and
to ensure that the blade cuts all the way
through the workpiece. A kerf is needed for
each different cutting path.
To make an approximately 1/16" deep kerf:
1. Prepare table:
- put fence in font position
-tighten table clamps
2. Prepare blade:
- lock blade in crosscut position
- lock radial arm at desired miter angle
- lock motor at desired bevel angle*
- unlock rip lock and push blade to
rearmost position, behind fcnce
- lower blade* to just clear table
- lower pawls or riving knife to clear
fence by 1/4".
*raise clearp&stic guard b(fore changing
bevel angle and when lowering beveled
blade, otherwise it may jam into table.
3. Grasp saw handle, then turn saw on. Keep
one hand on saw handle through step 6.
4. Slowly lower blade until it touches table,
then lower one more full turn of crank.
5. Squeeze handle trigger to fully raise clear
plastic guard so it will clear fence. Pull blade
through fence and across table as l_tr as it
will go.
6. Push blade to rearmost position, behind
fence, and turn saw off. Keep hand on saw
handle until blade stops spinning.
46
/
Making Crosscuts
Follow these steps to make crosscuts.
1 Prepare table:
-put fence in front position
- tighten table clamps
2. Prepare blade:
- lock blade in crosscut posilion
- lock radial arm at desired miter angle
- lock motor at desired bevel angle*
- unlock rip lock and push blade to
rearmost position, behind fence
-lower blade into keff* but not touch-
ing kerf bottom (blade should move
freely).
*raise clear plastic guard before changing
bevel angle and when lowering beveled
blade, otherwise it may jam into table.
3 Position workpiece against fence, and
lower pawls or riving knife to clear fence or
workpiece, whichever is higher, by 1/4".
4. Grasp saw handle, then turn saw on. Keep
one hand on saw handle through step 7.
5. Hold workpiece down and against fence.
Keep hand at least 8" away from blade.
6. Squeeze handle trigger to fully raise clear
plastic guard so it will clear fence and
workpiece. Pull blade through workpiece but
only far enough to complete cut, and never
more than half the diameter of blade.
7. Push blade carriage to rearmost position,
behind fence, and turn saw off. Keep hand
on saw handle until blade stops spinning.
Crosscutting
47
Crosscutting
Repetitive Crosscutting
Repetitive crosscutting is the repeated and
continuous cutting of many pieces of lumber
to the same length. Carriage and length stops
can help make this type of crosscutting more
efficient.
A carriage stop def'mes the distance needed
to pull the blade through to complete each
cut. This will prevent pulling the blade
through more than the recommended dis-
tance.
To make a carriage stop use Ix2 lumber:
i) cut two pieces, each 2" long
ii) clamp a piece on each side of radial
ann, so blade carriage stops at distance
needed to complete cut
iii) check that clamps do not interfere
with hand grip on saw handle.
A length stop defines the cut length and
ensures that all pieces will be cut to the same
size. Clamp a piece of 1x2 lumber on the
fence to define the cut length. Use a length
stop only on the end of the workpleee
which is held down.

Stop
Crosscutting Hints
1. To extend life of table top, buy auxiliary
table cover (see Accessories) or make one
out of 1/4" plywood or fiberboard. Clamp or
nail to original table top, section by ,section.
If you use nails, nail in the four comers to
make sure blade will not contact nails.
2. Make several fences, so each will have
only a few kerfs (See Cutting Aides). Too
many kerfs will weaken a fence.
3. Keep table clean of chips and sawdust.
4. Use sharp blades, and use the right blade
for each job.
5. When making miter or bevel cuts, use
extra force to hold workpiece down because
it tends to move during these types of cuts.
6. When cutting hard woods, like oak, or
making compound cuts, keep arm holding
saw handle rigid and pull blade through
slowly.
7. To keep cut line accurate, periodically
check blade alignment.
8. Do not cut severely warped or crooked
workpieces.
48
Ripping
Ripping Defined
Ripping is changing the width of a work-
piece by cutting along its length. The work-
piece is fed into the blade, which rotates in a
fixed position, parallel to the fence and a set
distance from the fence. A solid fence (no
kerfs) serves as a guide for the workpiece.
Place the fence in the front position for nar-
rower workpieces, or in the rear position for
wider ones.
In-Rip and Out-Rip Positions
hi-rip and out-tip refer to blade position.
In-rip: the blade is toward the column, and
the motor is toward the table front. In-tip is
recommended because this position allows
better visibility of the workpiece and your
hands. Use in-rip when you set the blade 1/2
to 16" from the fence.
Out-rip: the blade is toward the table front,
and the motor is toward the column. Use
out-tip only when you set the blade 12" or
more from the fence.
Infeed and Outfeed Directions
lnfeed and outfeed refer to sides of the
blade.
Infeed: the side of the blade where the guard
hold down is. Always start a rip cut at the
infeed side and push the workpiece
through to the ouffeed side.
Outfeed: the side of the blade where the
pawls and riving knife are. Never start a rip
cut at the ouffeed side. This is wrong way
feed. Never put hands on the ouffeed side
of the blade when ripping because they
can be pulled back into the spinning
blade.

Ripping
Workpiece Positioning
Always set up so that the wider part of
the workpiece is between the blade and
fence. This gives you greater clearance for
push sticks, and allows better stability for
feeding the workpiece.
Push Sticks and Push Blocks
Use push sticks and push blocks instead of
the hands to push the work_iece through to
complete cuts. They help keep hands away
from the blade, A push block is used with an
auxiliary fence. (see Cutting Aides).
Use a push block and auxiliary fence
when the blade is set 1/2 to 2" from the
fence.
Use a push stick when the blade is set 2" or
more from the fence.
Do not set the blade closer than 1/2" to
the fence. The radial saw is the wrong tool
for such a narrow cut. A band saw would
be more appropriate for this type of cut.
Example: To rip 2" off a10" wide board, set
blade in in-rip position 8" from rear fence.
Ripping _.P._fety
The hazards associated with ripping include:
outfeed zone hazard, kickback, and wrong
way feed. This section explains these haz-
ards and tells how to avoid them or reduce
the risk of their happening.
Read this section before making any type
of rip cut. Follow these steps every time
you make a rip cut.
5O
Outfeed Zone Hazard
-_DANGER
Rotational force of blade can pull
hands and fingers back into blade.
Touching, holding, or pulling on
outfeed side of workpiece while
blade is still spinning will result in
fingers, hand or arm being cut off.
To reduce risk of outfeed hazard:
Set pawls and riving knife; they act as
partial barrier to outfeed side.
4 Start and finish cut from infeed side.
"4Keep both hands on infeed side.
Keep hands away from outfeed side.
Push workpiece through to complete
cut. Do not reach around to pull it.
"4If blade jams, turn saw off, remove yel-
low key, then free blade.
Kickback
Kickback is the uncontrolled propelling of
the workpiece back toward the user.
,_ WARNING
Kickback can happen when blade is
pinched or bound by workpiece.
Pinching or binding can happen
when:
• pawls and riving knife are not used or
not set correctly
• riving knife is not aligned with blade
• blade is not parallel to fence
• workpiece is twisted or warped and
rocks on table top
• pressure is put on ouffeed side of work-
piece
• workpiece is released before being
pushed past pawls
• user touches or tries to pull workpiece
through outfeed side before blade has
stopped spinning.
Ripping
a DANGER
, --WARNING
KICKBACK
51
Ripping
To reduce risk of kickback:
_/Set pawls and riving knife according to
ripping set-up procedure. Correctly set
riving knife is more likely to prevent
workpiece from binding or pinching
blade; correctly set pawls are more
likely to grab into workpiece to stop or
slow kickback if one happens.
_/Check that riving knife is in line with
blade (see Alignment: Riving Knife to
Blade).
_/Cut only straight workpieces so surface
will lie flat on table and edge will stay
tight against fence. If you must cut an
irregular workpiece, attach a straight
edge (see Cutting Aides).
_/Push workpiece through from infeed to
ouffeed side until it is completely past
pawls.
",/Use featherboard (see Cutting Aides).
_/Keep hands away from outfeed side.
_/If blade jams, turn saw off, remove yel-
low key, then free blade.
When cutting composition materials, or
other materials with one smooth and
one rough side, put rough side up so
pawls will be more likely to grab.
Wrong Way Feed
Wrong way feed is ripping by feeding the
workpiece into the ouffeed side of the blade.
_kWARNING
Rotational force of blade will pull
workpiece through violently if work-
piece is fed in same direction as
blade rotates (wrong way feed).
Hands and fingers could be pulled
along with workpiece into spinning
blade before you can let go or pull
back. Fingers, hand or arm could be
cut off. Propelled workpiece could
hit bystander.
To eliminate risk of wrong way feed:
_/Feed workpiece against blade rotation.
_/Set pawls and riving knife; they act as
partial barrier to ouffeed side.
WARNING
Wrong Way Feed
52
Ripping
Hold Down Function
The hold down must be set correctly during
tipping to act as barrier against the infeed
side of the blade, to help keep the workpiece
flat on the table, and to deflect workpiece
chips. It must be lowered to just clear the
workpiece.
The hold down must be re-set each time a
different thickness workqgiece is cut.
Follow the Ripping Set-Up Procedure to
correctly set the hold down.
Set Hold-Down to
just clear __
workpiece ___
Pawls and Riving Knife Function
The pawls and riving knife must be set cor-
rectly during tipping to reduce the risk of
kickback, to prevent wrong way feed, and to
act as a barrier to the hazardous outfeed side
of the blade.
The riving knife rests on the table. It keeps
the workpiece kerf open. This reduces the
chances that the cut workpiece will spring
closed and pinch the blade. Pinching the
blade is a cause of kickback.
The pawls rest level on the upper surface of
the workpiece. During cutting they "allow the
workpiece to pass freely from the infeed to
the outfeed side, but help stop the kickback
motion from ouffeed to infeed side by grab-
bing into the workpiece surface.
The pawls must be re-set each time a differ-
ent thickness workpiece is cut.
Follow the Ripping Set-Up Procedure to
correctly set the pawls and riving knife.

Ripping Set-up Procedure
Follow these stepsbefore ripping.
These steps must be repeated each time a
different thickness workpiece is ripped. A
kerf must be made for each different
width cut. Also see the special notes for
bevel set-up that follow this section.
1. Prepare table:
- insert solid (no kerfs) fence (Note:
Use auxiliary fence when blade is set
1/2 to 2"from fence (See Cutting
Aides)
- tighten table clamps.
2. Prepare blade:
- lock radial arm at 0 ° miter
- lock blade in in-rip position*
- lower blade to just clear table
- lock blade carriage desired distance
from fence. Note: Make sure wider
part of worlqoiece will be between
blade and fence.
*use out-rip position for rips 12" or wider.
3. Make kerf:
a) turn saw on
b) lower blade about 1/16" into table
c) turn saw off and remove yellow
key.
4. Place workpiece parallel to and up against
blade.** Note: Workp&ce will be between
blade and table front.
5. Lower hold down** to workpiece, then
raise slightly so it just clears top surface of
workpiece. Lock in place.
6. Lower riving knife to table. Lower pawls
to workpiece surface.** Move workpiece
toward outfeed side until one set of pawls
rests level on workpiece surface. Lock in
place.
** bevel set-up: see special notes, next page
54
WARNING
If workpiece is pushed along fence
with kerfs, workpiece could get
caught on kerf, pinch blade and
cause kickback. Do not use cross-
cutting fence for ripping.
In-Rip Set-Up
Setting Guard For Rip Cut
8. Remove workpiece from table.
9. Ready push stick or push block.
10. Set up table extension(s) and support
their outer ends. Do not use another person
to support workpieces because this can
cause kickback and it exposes helper to
potential hazards at outfeed side.
Special Notes for Bevel Set-Up
_CAUTION
Bevel ripping creates unique prob-
lems of visibility and feeding.
Before cutting, check the set-up
using both in-rip and out-rip. Use
the position that gives the best
combination of workpiece visibility
and push stick clearance.
,_WARNING
Bevel the edge that is not against
the fence.
1. When setting bevel angle, raise radial arm
to allow sufficient clearance for blade and
guard to not jam in table.
2. When blade is beveled manually raise
clear plastic guard before lowering blade to
table or kerf, otherwise it may jam in the
table.
3. To set hold down, place workpiece direct-
ly under guard nose, rather than parallel to
blade.
4. To set pawls, place workpiece directly
under set of pawls closer to table. This set of
pawls will keep contact with workpiece sur-
face.
Making Rip Cuts
Follow these steps to make in-rip cuts. For
out-rip cuts, reverse hand functions; that is,
put right hand on table and use left hand to
support and push workpiece.
1. Follow ripping set-up procedure.
In-ripping
Ripping
55

2. Insert yellow key and turn saw on.
3. Stand at infeed side and out of line of
workpiece, in case of kickback. Start and
finish cut from infeed side.
4. Put workpiece on table, in front of hold
down, and tight against fence. To hold work-
piece in position, put left hand on table, at
least 8" in front of hold down, and lightly
press fingers against workpiece. Support
workpiece with table extension or right
hand.
,_CAUTION
For large workpieces use a feather-
board in place of your hand on the
table. It gives better support. (See
cutting aides)
5. With fight hand, push workpiece under
hold down and into blade. Keep left hand
fixed on table, applying slight pressure to
keep workpiece against fence.
6. Use right hand to continue to apply feed
pressure to part of workpiece close to fence.
Keep hand at least 8" in front of hold down.
Note: Most worbpieces will automatically
raise clear plastic guard as they pass from
infeed to ouOreed side. Unusually tall and
narrow workpieces may not raise clear
guard. When this happens, push guard tab
to raise guard, then release tab when guard
rests on top of workpiece surface.
_IL CAUTION
Pushing guard tab means using
only one hand to control workpiece.
While pushing tab, use extra care to
guide workpiece and to keep hand
at least 8" in front of hold down.
Release tab as soon as clear guard
rests on workpiece.
7. When end of workpiece gets to table, use
push stick or block, instead of hand, on part
of workpiece between blade and fence to
push until workpiece is completely past
pawls.
8. Turn saw off and wait for blade to stop
spinning before touching workpieee.

Edging
Edging is the use of a dado blade or molding
head in the horizontal position. It is an
advanced technique that requires a molding
head guard and a sr,ecial fence. See
Accessories for information on safety, instal-
lation and use of dado blades and molding
heads for edging. See Cutting Aides for
information on making the special fence.
Ripping Hints
1. To extend life of table top, buy an auxil-
iary table cover (see Accessories), or make
one out of 1/4" plywood or fiberboard.
Clamp or nail to original table top, section
by section. If you use nails, nail in the four
comers to make sure blade will not contact
nails.
2. Keep table clean of chips and sawdust.
3. Use shmp blades.
4. Use the right blade for each job.
5. For workpiece with one smooth and one
rough surface, such as paneling or finished
fiberboard, cut with rough surface up so
pawls will be more likely to grab in case of
kickback.
6. _ib keep cut line accurate, periodically
check blade alignment.
7. If you must cut an irregular workpiece,
attach a sn-aight edge (see Cutting Aides).
57
Cutting Aides
Before cutting any wood on your saw, study
all of the Crosscutting and Ripping
Instructions found on pages 41 through 53.
As you learn new radial arm saw wood-
working techniques, you'll see that many
types of cuts need different support and
feeding devices, known as jigs or fixtures.
They can help you make cuts more accurate-
ly. By helping to steady the workpiece and
keep you away from the blade, they can help
you safely use your saw for certain cuts.
Many people custom build their own jigs
and fixtures. Jigs and fixtures are often
designed for a particular cut.
You can use your radial saw to easily make
many jigs and fixtures. To get you started,
we've included instructions for some simple
ones. After you have made a few practice
cuts, make up these jigs before starting any
projects. Make the push stick first.
Push Sticks
Make the push stick using a piece of 1 x 2.
(see drawing top right tor dimensions and
shapes)
Push Block
There are any number of ways to properly
cut your v, ork pieces to make a push block.
The following steps describe one way you
can proceed.
Making the base:
•Start with a piece of 3/8" plywood at least
5-5/8" wide or wider and 12" long or
longer.
•Make two ripcuts. Perform the first ripcut
along the long side of the 3/8" plywood to
create a 3/8" wide strip. Next ripcut the
3/8" plywood to a width of 5-1/8".
• Crosscut the 3/8" plywood to 12" long.
•Crosscut a 2-1/2" piece offof the 3/8"
wide by 3/8" thick strip and save this short
piece for later.
•The next cuts will create the 3/8" by 9-
1/2" notch in the base. Mark the long edge
of the board 2-1/2'" from one end. Make a
crosscut into the edge, stopping about 3/4"
into the board. Set the saw to the in-rip
position and rip the width lo 4-3/4" along
the same edge as the stopped crosscut.
Stop the ripcut where the two cuts inter-
sect. Turn off the saw and remove the base
piece. The base should [lOW measure as
shown.

Making the handle:
• Miter crosscut a piece of 3/4" fllick ply-
wood to the shape and size shown. The
mitered comers can be any size that looks
like the drawing (about 1-1/2" by 1-1/2").
Putting it together:
• Using good quality wood working glue,
glue the 2-1/2" strip saved earlier to the
base as shown. Important: Do not use
nails or screws. This is to prevent dulling
of the saw blade in the event you cut in to
the push block.
• Position the handle at the edge of the ply-
wood base as shown. Fasten them togeth-
er with glue and wood screws.
Important: Make sure the screw heads
do not stick out from the bottom of the
base. The bottom must be flat and smooth
enough to slide along the auxiliary fence
you are now ready to make.
Auxiliary Fence:
Making the base:
• Start with a piece of 3/8" thick plywood at
least 5-1/2" ',vide and at least 30" long.
• Cut the piece to 5-1/2" wide and 30" long.
Making the side pieces:
• Using 3/4" plywood at least 30" long, rip-
cut one piece 2-1/4" wide and one piece
3-1/4" wide.
• Separately, crosscut both pieces to 30"
long.
Putting Rtogether:
• Glue and then fasten with screws the side
pieces to the base as shown. Make sure
the edge of the base and the face of the
side piece are parallel as indicated in the
note next to the drawing. Important: Make
sure the screw or nail heads do not stick
out from the bottom of the base. The bot-
tom must be flat and smooth enough to
rest on the saw table without rocking.

Cutting Aides
Clamp the featherboard to the front table, so
that the angled edge of the featherboard is
against the workpiece on the infeed side of
the blade. Do not clamp the featherboard
against the cut off part (out-feed side) of
the workpiece. If clamped to the outfeed
side, the featherboard can squeeze the
kerf closed, put binding pressure on the
blade, and cause kickback.
Straight Edge for Irregular Workpiece
_WARNING
If you try to rip an irregular work-
piece, it could bind blade and cause
kickback.
ff the workpiece you want to rip does not
have a straight edge, attach a straight-edged
board to the workpiece:
a) place irregular side of workpiece
against fence
b) put straight-edged board on top of
workpiece and against fence
c) tack straight edged board to work
piece.
Note: Straight-edged board must not extend
beyond leading end of workpiece and
should cover workpiece width only enough
to pass between blade and fence.
Note: Use fence at least as high as com-
bined heights of workpiece and straight-
edged board.

Accessories Safety
1. Use only accessories listed in this section.
Use of any other accessory or attachment
might increase the risk of injury to you or
others.
2. Read and follow instructions that come
with accessory.
3. Do not install accessories on both enck_of
arbor shaft at same time.
4. Do not use twist drill bits longer than 7"
because they can bend and break.
5. Use a spade type drill 1" or smaller in
diameter for drilling only wood or plastic.
6. Do not use reduced shank drills.
7. Remove blade wrenches before turning
saw on.
,_DANGER
Grinding wheels, abrasive or cut off
wheels, or wire wheels can break
explosively and throw pieces. You
can be blinded or receive a life
threatening puncture wound. Do
not use grind wheels, abrasive or
cut off wheels, or wire wheels.
_, WARNING
When using accessory shaft,
exposed arbor shaft can pull in
clothing, hair or jewelry as it
rotates. Broken bones and severe
cuts could occur.
Follow personal safety instructions.
Locate arbor shaft under radial arm:
lock blade carriage in out-rip posi-
tion, then bevel motor to -90 °.
Accessories
Information for Dado
1. Put inside loose collar on arbor shaft first,
then install dado. Tighten blade nut directly
against outside surface of dado.
2. Saw arbor is designed for dado up to
13/16" wide. Use of wider dado could cause
dado and blade nut to spin off. To make larg-
er than 13/16" wide cut, take several passes
with dado.
3. To avoid excessive load on motor when
making a 13/16" wide cut, limit depth of cut
to 1/8" in one pass.
Information for Edging
Edging is the use of a dado or molding head
in the horizontal position. Edging requires
the use of a molding head guard (see
Accessories List)
1. Use molding head guard for edging with
molding head mad dado blade. Follow
instructions that come with guard. Do not
edge with a blade.
,_DANGER
Edging without a guard can bring
hands and fingers too close to
blade. Hands, fingers and arm could
be cut off. Buy, install, and follow
instructions for molding head
guard.
,_WARNING
Blade cannot be guarded in hori-
zontal position. Edge with guarded
molding head or dado. Do not edge
with blade.
2. Whenever possible, edge with arm locked
at indexed 0° miter, so blade carriage is
more likely to lock firmly.
3. Before edging, with saw unplugged mad
yellow key out, turn cutting tool by hand to
make sure it does not strike guard or any
other part of saw.

Maintenance
General Information
When new, the saw requires no hthrication.
Tile saw has been partially aligned and all
bearings are lubricated and sealed for life. In
time, in order to keep file saw in good work-
ing order, it will be necessary to clean, lubri-
cate and re-align.
,_WARNING
To avoid shock, burns, or lacera-
tions from accidental start up of
saw, turn power switch off and
unplug saw before doing mainte-
nance or servicing saw.
Oil Here
/,
Cleaning
Periodically remove any heavy build-up of
sawdust that may accumulate on the saw.
The absorbing tendency of sawdust will
draw lubricants away from the areas where
they are needed. Wipe the carriage bearings
and _'ack surfaces with a dry or lightly oiled
cloth.
To avoid motor damage due to sawdust
build-up, which interferes with normal
motor ventilation, vacuum the motor often.
Lubrication
Do not lubricate motor bearings, carriage
bearings, or the area between the miter lock
and the column tube. Motor and carriage
bearings are sealed and do not need added
lubrication.
Areas that should be lubricated periodically
are the bevel index pin, swivel index pin,
and column tube.
You can lubricate other points if necessary,,
but only when sticking or binding occurs.
Use a small amount of SAE No. 10W30
automotive engine oil. Excess oil attracts air-
born dust and sawdust.

Maintenance
Replacing Pawls
Make sure the teeth of the pawls are "always
sharp. If they become dull the pawls must be
replaced:
1. Use 7/16" wrench to remove hex nut.
Remove old pawls.
2. Install new pawls, Place spacers exactly
as shown.
3. Re-install hex nut.
4. Check that pawls work freely.
Blade Changing
To change the saw blade:
1. Turn switch off, remove yellow key, and
unplug saw.
2. Remove guard.
3, Use both blade wrenches in scissor action
to loosen blade nut. Note: Arbor shaft has
left-hand threads. Turn nut clockwise to
loosen.
4. Remove nut, blade collar, and blade.
Install ne_ blade, making sure that arrow is
on outside and points clockwise.
5. Re-install blade collar and nut. Note: Do
not overtighten nut because this can cause
blade collar to warp and blade to wobble
during cutting.
6. Re-install guard.
Lubricating Blade Guard Assembly
If guard becomes difficult to raise:
1. Clean sawdust from the slot and slider.
2. Regrease with a small amount of light
grease applied to the slot and slider. Also
add a thin coat of grease between the
Trigger and the Pull Link.
Adjusting the Trigger
If the Trigger becomes loose side-to-side,
adjust the setscrews at the top of the Yoke
Handle. Use a 1/8" hex wrench to tighten
setscrews tight. Then back off one setscrew
unti! the T:-igger moves freely.

Troubleshooting
HAVE YOU FOLLOWED ALL STEPS OF THE
ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE? IF YOU HAVE
NOT FOLLOWED THEM IN THEIR PROPER
SEQUENCE, YOU CANNOT EXPECT ACCU-
RATE CUTTING RESULTS.
In addition to the proper alignment of your
saw, you must also become familiar with the
following practices in order to expect the
best results.
1. Edge of workpiece which is placed
against fence must be as straight as the long
side of your flaming square.
2. Workpiece must be as flat as the front
table board on your saw.
3. There must be no sawdust or other wood
chips between the fence and the front table
board.
4. There must be no sawdust or other wood
chips underneath workpiece or between
workpiece and fence.
5. Workpiece must be held tightly against
fence and down against the table...this is
especially important when making angle
cuts because the workpiece has a tendency
to move.
6, Always use the correct sawblade for the
job...Always keep it sharp.
7. When making a four sided frame:
a. The two side pieces must be exactly the
same length.
b. The top and bottom pieces must be
exactly the same length.
c. Always place the same edge of the
workpiece against, the fence...turn the
workpiece end for end for the succes-
sive cuts and mark a pencil line on the
table for gauging the required length.
Deviation from any of the above practices
wi!l have an effect on the accuracy of the
cuts that you make.
