1. If you are missing any part while putting
your saw together, do not continue assembly.
Contact your Sears Service Center or Retai!
Store and get the missing part before continuing assembly or trying to use the saw.
Complete parts lists are located at the end of
this manual. Use these lists to identify the
number of any missing part.
2. Sometimes
small parts get lost in packaging materials. Do not throw away any packaging until your saw is put together. If you are
missing a part, check the packaging before
contacting Sears.
3. Most parts of your radial arm saw will be
fastened together using truss head bolts, lockwashers, and hex nuts of the sizes shown.
(Figure 16) When different sizes are needed,
the instructions
will include a sketch to help
you locate the correct size.

The wide edge should point down, and the
three narrow edges should point up.

4. As you assemble your radial arm saw,
some of the holes in the parts will line up
and others will not. This happens because
some parts are used in other equipment
or
for other purposes. Follow the instructions
carefully. The figures will show which holes
should line up in each step.

These adjustments
are like fine tuning a
piece of equipment.
Often a series of steps
must be repeated
more than once in order to

Adjusting Elevation
The goal of this adjustment
is to make upward and downward movement
of the radial
arm smooth and firm. If the column that supports the arm is too tight it will be difficult to
move the arm up and down and to get accurate depth of cut. If the column is loose the
blade may "walk" on the workpiece and stall
the motor, or cause a bee! in bevel and compound cuts.

Leveling Front Table.
The goal of this adjustment is to make the
front work table flat and parallel to the radial
arm. In order to do this, you will choose four
points on the table. When these four points
are level, the entire table should be level.
You will use two methods to make the four
points level:

Ripping
When to Use In-Rip or Out-Rip

Ripping is used to change the width of the
workpiece
by sawing along its length. The
workpiece is fed into the saw blade. The
fence is used as a guide. Rip cuts are usually
made with the grain of the workpiece.

Saw Positions

The in-rip saw position provides better
visibility of both the workpiece
and your
hands than does the out-rip saw position.
The only time you should use the out-rip saw
position is when the workpiece is 14 inches
or wider. Use the in-rip position for all
work_ieces
less than 14 inches wide.

for Ripping

There are two saw blade positions for making
rip cuts: in-rip and out-rip.
In in-rip position, motor is toward the front
of the table, and blade is toward the fence.

Workpiece

Positioning

for Ripping

Always set up the saw blade so the widest
part of the workpiece is between the blade
and the fence. For example, if you want to
take 1 inch off an 11 inch wide workpiece,
set
the saw blade 10 inches from the fence. Do
not rip 1 inch off an 11 inch workpiece
by setting the saw blade 1 inch from the fence.

IMPORTANT

WARNING

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

3. Place the same edge of the workpiece
against the fence for all cuts. Make the
first cut at one end of the workpiece, then
flip the workpiece over and make the
second cut from the other end. Continue
this way until all four cuts are made.
(Figure 171)

In order to get accurate cutting results from
your radial arm saw, do the following:

1. Follow all steps in the Alignment of
the Blade section.

2. Place the long edge of your framing
square against the edge of the
workpiece that will be held against the
fence during cutting. Make sure that
this edge of the workpiece is straight.

3. Make sure that your workpiece lays
flat on the front table of your saw.

This Edge of Board

Against Fence For All Cuts

]

Turn workpiece over end for end...
keep same edge against fence when
making successive cuts.

4. Clean all sawdust and woodchips
from the table.

5. Hold the workpiece
firmly against the
fence and table during all cuts. You
should use extra force during miter and
bevel cuts since the workpiece
tends to
move when these cuts are made.

Pencil Line for
Gauging Required Length

6. Use the right sawblade for each job,
and make sure that all blades and cutting tools are sharp.

pieces are exactly the same length.

2. Make sure that both side pieces are

3. Lock the miter, bevel, or swivel lock.

To extend the life of the front table of your
saw, tack a piece of 1/4 inch plywood over it.
Make sure that the tacks are not in the path
of the saw blade.

These steps will reduce stress on saw parts,
and improve the accuracy of your cuts.

Use of a front table cover does the following:

The following table is provided to convert the
decimal numbers on the digital display to
fractions. All decimals are rounded to the
nearest .01 inch. (Figure 172)

Maintaining
General
_I_WARNING:

Your Saw
To avoid motor damage the motor should be
blown out or vacuumed frequently to prevent
sawdust build-up which will interfere with
normal motor ventilation.

For your own safety,

turn power switch off and remove plug
from power source outlet before maintaining or lubricating your saw.

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
necessary to lubricate and realign. In fact
your radial saw needs more of a cleaning
than a lubrication.

Do not lubricate

the following:

• carriage ball bearings

Replacing

Antikickback

Pawls
• motor

Make sure the teeth of the antikickbackpawls
are always sharp. If they become dull they
must be replaced. With a 1/2 inch wrench or
socket remove the 5/16 hex nut and old
pawls. Reassemble
new antikickback pawls"
and spreader to the bar. Check spreader for
proper alignment and correct if necessary.
(See Alignment
of the Blade, Installing
Guard / Setting Spreader section.)

bearings

• area between the miter locking
and the column tube

rings

The carriage ball beatings and motor bearings
are sealed ball bearings which require no
added lubrication.

Cleaning

Do lubricate the following, periodically,
using
SAE No 10W-30 automotive
engine oil:

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.
Clean the carriage bearings and
track surfaces. If packed sawdust and grease
accumulate
repeatedly
on carriage bearings
and track inspect the wipers for wear and
replace if necessary. (See Adjustments
to
Compensate
for Wear, Swdvel Lock, later in
this section.)

*Apply a few drops of oil along the
swivel index pin and the bevel index pin
only if the pins have a tendency to
stick. Swivel to in-rip or out-rip for
easy access to the swivel indexpin.
Bevel to 45 ° and bevel indexpin can be
easily accessed behind theyoke as

3. As soon as the red button will click into
running position, the saw may be started and
operated normally.

Motor
To avoid motor damage this motor should be
blown out or vacuumed frequently to prevent
sawdust buildup which will interfere with normal motor ventilation.

4. Frequent blowing of fuses or tripping of circuit breakers may result if:

Your saw is equipped with a manual reset
button designed to open the power line circuit when the motor temperature exceeds a
safe level, motor is overloaded, or a low voltage condition exists. (Figure 186)

• Motor is overloaded:
Overloading
can
occur if you feed too rapidly or if saw is
misaligned
so that the blade heels.

• Motor circuit is fused differently from
recommendations:
Always follow instructions for the proper fuse/breaker.
Do not use a fuse/breaker of greater
capacity without consulting a qualified
electrician.

.Low voltage: Although the motor is
designed for operation
on the voltage
and frequency specified on the
nameplate,
normal loads will be bandled safely on voltages not more than
10% above or below the nameplate
voltage. Heavy loads, however, require
that voltage at motor terminals equal
the voltage specified on nameplate.

1. If the protector opens the line and stops
the saw motor, immediately turn the saw
switch off, remove the yellow key, and allow
the motor to cool.
2. After cooling to a safe operating temperature, the overload protector can be closed
manually by pushing the red button on the
top of the motor. If the red button will not
click into place immediately,
the motor is still
too hot and must be allowed to cool for a
while longer.
The motor may take as long to cool as it did
for the heat to build up. An audible click
when you push the red button will indicate
that the protector
is closed (reset) and the
saw is ready for use.

Under normal home workshop usage, and if
full voltage is supplied to the motor, your saw
