1. Set carriage lock before moving the saw.
2. Bolt the saw to the floor if it tends to slip, walk, or
slide during normal operation.
3. Mount the saw so the table is approximately 39" above
the floor.
4. Mount the saw so the arm slopes slightly downward to
the rear so the carriage will not roll forward due to
gravity.
5. If yOU attach any kind of table extensions over 24"
wide to either end of the saw, make sure you either bolt
the saw to the bench or floor as appropriate, or support
the outer end of the extension from the bench or floor,
as appropriate.
MINIMIZE ACCIDENT POTENTIAL
Most accidents are caused by FAILURE TO FOLLOW
setup and operating instructions:
(A) GENERAL
Avoid awkward hand positions, where a sudden slip
could cause a hand to move into a sawblade or other
cutting tool. Never reach n back of or around the
cutting tool with either hand to hold down the
workpiece, or for any other reason; DO NOT place
fingers or hands in the path of the sawblade.
Never saw, dado, mo!d, or rabbet unless the p{oper
guard is installed and set up as instructed.

If any part of this radial saw is missing or should
break, bend or fail in any way, or any electrical
component fail to perform properly, shut off power
switch, remove cord from power supply and replace
damaged, missing and/or failed parts before resuming
operation.
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.
--WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY
(GAINED FROM FREQUENT USE OF YOUR
SAW) TO BECOME COMMONPLACE. ALWAYS
REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS FRACTION OF
A SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE
INJURY.
Before starting work, verify that no play exists
between the column & column support, or in the
carriage, and that arrn, yoke, and bevel locks/clamps
are tight.
-A large proportion of saw accidents is caused by use
of the wrong type blade, dull, badly set, improperly
sharpened cutting tools, by gum or resin adhering to
cutting tools, and by sawblade misalignment
out of-parallel with the fence. Such conditions can
cause the material to stick, jam (stall the saw) or
"KICKBACK" at the operator. NEVER ATTEMPT
TO FREE A STALLED SAW BLADE WITHOUT
FIRST TURNING THE SAW "OFF". If the
sawblade is stalled or jammed, shut saw "OFF",
remove workpiece, and check sawblade squareness to
table surface and to the fence, and check for heel.
Adjust as indicated.
--CAUTION: DO NOT cycle the motor switch "ON"
and "'OFF" rapidly, as this might cause the sawblade
to loosen, In the event this should ever occur, allow
the saw blade to come to a complete stop and
re-tighten the arbor nut normally, not excessively,
-- Do not leave a long board unsupported so the spring
of the board causes it to shift on the table. Provide
proper support for the workpiece, based on its size
and the type of operation to be performed. Hold the
work firmly against the fence.
- Never use a length stop on the free end or edge of the
workpiece whether crosscutting or ripping. Never
hang onto or touch the free end of workpiece when
crosscutting, or a free piece that is cut off while
power is "ON" and!or the saw blade is rotating. In
short, the cut-off piece in any "thru-sawing'"
operation must never be confined -- it must be
allowed to move laterally.
-- Make sure your fingers do not contact the terminals
when installing or removing the plug to or from a live
power source.
Never climb on the saw, or climb near the saw when
power is "ON". Never leave the saw with power
"ON", or before the cutting tool has come to a
complete stop. Lock the motor switch and put away
the key when leaving the saw.
-Do not use any blade or other cutting too! marked
for an opelating speed lower than 3450 RPM. Never
use a cutting tool larger in diameter" than the diameter
for which the saw was designed. For greatest safety
and efficiency when ripping, use the maximum
diameter blade for which the saw is designed, since
under these conditions the spreader is nearest the
blade.
Never turn your saw "ON" before clearing the table
or work surface of all objects (tools, scraps of wood,
etc.) except the workpiece and related feed or
support devices for the operation planned.
DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work on
the table while the cutting tool is rotating.
Never perform any operation "FREE HAND". This
term means feeding the sawblade into the workpiece
or feeding the workpiece into the sawblade or other
cutting tool without using the fence or some other
device which prevents rotation or twisting of the
workpiece during the operation. Never "RIP" in the
crosscut position. Never make amiter cut with the
arm in the 90 ° crosscut position.
Never lower a revol_ing cutting tool into the table or
a workp_eee without first locking the Carriage Lock
Knob. Release the knob only after grasping the Yoke
Handle. Otherwise the cutting tool may grab the
workpiece and be propelled toward you.
The sawblade, dado, or other cutting tool must be
additional safety instructions for radial saws
removed from the saw arbor before using the
accessory shaft (rear end of the saw motor). NEVER
operate the saw with cutting tools (including sanding
accessories) installed on both ends of the saw arbor.
(B) RIPPING
Ripping is cutting with the grain or the long way of the
board - it is performed by pushing the workpiece
along the fence and thru the sawblade (sawblade
parallel to the fence).
1. Never apply the feed force to the section of the
workpiece that will become the cut-off (free) piece.
Feed force when ripping must always be applied
between the saw blade and the fence .. . use a
"PUSH STICK" (see pg. 26) for narrow or short
work.
2. Whenever possible, use the in-rip position - this
provides minimum obstruction for feeding by hand
or push stick as appropriate.
3. Do not release the workpiece before operation is
complete - push the workpiece all the way past the
rear (outfeed or exit) of the sawblade.
4. Make sure by trial before starting the cut that the
antikickback pawls will stop a kickback once it has
started. Keep points of pawls SHARP!
5. Use a push stick when ripping short (under 12
inches) or narrow (under 6 inches wide) workpieces.
6. CAUTION: Never reposition the Guard or
antikickback with power "ON".
7. A "KICKBACK" occurs during a rip-type operation
when a part or all of the workpiece is thrown back
violently toward the operator. It can occur when
the workpiece closes in on the rear (outfeed side) of
the sawblade (pinching), binds between the fence
and the sawblade (heel), or is grabbed by the
sawblade teeth (wrong-way feed) at the out-feed
side. "PINCHING" is generally avoided by
utilization of the spreader, and a sharp sawblade of
the correct type for the workpiece being cut.
"HEEL" can be avoided by maintaining the
sawblade exactly parallel to the fence. Grabbing by
the sawblade teeth can be caused by heel or by
feeding from the wrong direction (see "DANGER"
warning on guard) - it can be avoided by
maintaining parallelism of sawblade to fence,
feeding into the sawblade from the nose of the
guard only, by positioning the spreader and
antikickback properly, and keeping the workpiece
down on the table and against the fence.
8. Position the nose of the guard to just clear the
workpiece, and position/adjust the antikickback
and spreader devices as instructed.
9. NEVER cut more than one piece at a time by
stacking workpieces vertically.
10. NEVER feed a workpiece thru the saw with another
piece (butting second piece against trailing edge of
piece being cut), even if of the same thickness. Feed
each workpiece individually thru the sawblade, and
completely beyond the sawblade, before ripping the
next workpiece. Use push stick if the rip cut is less
than 6" wide.
1 1. DO NOT pull the workpiece thru the sawblade
- position your body' at the nose (in-feed) side of the
guard: start and complete the cut from that same
side. This will require added table support for long
pieces.
12. Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materials
may be cut on your saw. However, since these are
usually quite hard and slippery, the antikickback
pawls may not stop a kickback.
Therefore, rip with the finished side down (next to
the table) and be especially attentive to following
proper set up and cutting procedures. Do not stand,
or permit anyone else to stand, in line with a
potential kickback.
13. When sawing 1/4" or thinner materials, follow all
normal ripping procedures except set sawblade into
table top at least 1/8". DO NOT let go of or stop
feeding the workpiece between the blade and fence
until you have pushed it completely past the
antikickback pawls. Otherwise the workpiece could
get into the back of the sawblade and be thrown
violently from the saw in the direction opposite to
the feed direction. This is the same action that
would occur if the instructions of the DANGER
warning on the guard is aborted. Do not stand, or
permit anyone else to stand, in line with the path of
a workpiece that may be thrown from the saw in
this manner.
14. Position the saw so neither you, a helper, or a casual
observer is forced to stand in line with the
sawblade.
15. Use extra care when ripping wood that has a twisted
grain or is twisted or bowed - it may rock on the
table and/or pinch the sawblade.
16. Shaping of wood with a dado head or a molding
head can be performed "top-side" (cutting tool
basically vertical and employing sawblade guard), or
"edge" (saw arbor vertical - cutting tool horizontal
and employing the Accessory molding head
guard).
17.
18.
Ploughing
(Grooving with the grain)
Top side rabbeting
Top side molding
(shaping) ...
resawing, gaining, coving, with the grain, are
examples of rip-type cuts. The same basic setup
procedures including rotation of the guard and
adjusting and positioning of the AKB/Spreader
device as for in-rip or out-rip cutting, apply.
However, since none of these operations involve
thru-sawing (sawing through the workpiece), there
is no kerf. Therefore the spreader and AKB pawls
can only be lowered to a position where the
spreader just clears the workpiece.
CAUTION: The AKB/$preader device will not
stop a kickback in this position, but will act as a
holddown and as a guard of the out-feed side of
the sawblade.
For rip or rip-type cuts, the following end of a
workpiece to which a push stick or push board is
applied must be square (perpendicular to the
fence) in order that feed pressure applied to the
workpiece by the push stick or block does not
cause the workpiece to come away from the fence,
and possibly cause a kickback.
During rip and rip type cuts, the workpiece must
be held down on the table and against the fence
with a push stick, push block, or featherboards. A
featherboard is made of solid lumber per sketch.

Changing Motor Connections
a. Under normal home workshop usage, and if proper
(full) voltage is supplied to the motor, your saw will
operate efficiently on 120V, as connected at the
factory. However, if any of the following conditions
exists, it will be advisable for you to reconnect the
motor for 240V operation - to obtain the
efficiem:y and performance for which your saw is
designed:
(1) Heavy-duty operations.
(2) Either an undersized or an overloaded branch
circuit serving the saw motor.
(3) Low voltage supplied by the power source,
which the power company cannot correct.
b. Motor wiring connections for 120V (as made at the
factory) are described below. Necessary
reconnections for 240V operation are also described
following. Whenever changing connections from
120V to 240V or vice-versa, make certain that a/I

MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
NOTE: This motor should be blown out, or "vacuumed",
frequently to prevent sawdust interference with normal
motor ventilation.
Your saw motor is equipped with a manual-reset,
thermal-overload protector designed to open the power-line
circuit when the motor temperature exceeds a safe value.
1.
PROTECTOR
(R_D BUTTO N)_
If the protector opens the line and stops the saw motor,
_mmediately press the saw switch to the "OFF"
position, and allow the motor to cool.

sothatthebladeheels.Donot use a fuse of greater
capacity without consulting a qualified electrician.
5. Although the motor is designed for operation on the
voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the nameplate voltage.
Heavy loads, however, require that voltage at motor
terminals equals the voltage specified on nameplate.
6. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or
incorrect connections, overloading, reduced input
voltage (such as small size wires in the supply circuit) or
to an overly-long supply circuit, Always check the
connections, the load and the supply circuit, whenever
the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire
sizes and lengths with the table following.
WIRE SIZES
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent
over-heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to
determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension cord.
Use only 3 wire extension cords which have 3 prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept
the tools plug.
NOTE: For circuits of greater length, the wire size must be
increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage
to the saw motor.

ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT:
IN ORDER TO OBTAIN MAXIMUM CUTTING
ACCURACY, THE FOLLOWING SIX STEPS
MUST BE CAREFULLY FOLLOWED.
BECOME THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH
THESE STEPS SO THAT YOU CAN ALWAYS
MAINTAIN YOUR SAW IN PROPER
ALIGNMENT. THE ACCURACY OF EACH
ADJUSTMENT IS ALWAYS DEPENDENT
UPON THE ACCURA C Y OF THE PRECEDING
ADJUSTMENT.
After following the 6 step assembly and alignment
procedure and the Basic Saw operation section refer to
Trouble Shooting section if any difficulty is experienced
when performing any sawing operation.
STEP ONE
NOTE: The following adjustment, performed properly, will
result in the work table being parallel to the arm.
ATTACHING AND LEVELING TABLE MOUNTING
SUPPORT CHANNELS,
1. Attach table mounting support channels with four
square head 5/16-18 x 3/4 screws, Iockwashers and flat
washers and nuts. POSITION SCREWS IN CENTER OF
CHANNEL SLOTS, finger tight to permit channels to
"slip" against the base when leveling.

2. Release bevel lock lever, move bevel index pin to left
and rotate the motor to position saw blade end of shaft
down. Lock bevel lock.
3. Unlock and hold arm control lever m index release
position as shown. Position arm against left stop
(approximately 50 ° miter). Loosen carriage lock knob
and position carriage directly over left hand channel.
NOTE: For safety reasons in accordance with the UL
standard, stops have been provided to prevent 360 °
rotation of the radial arm.
4. Slide the arbor wrench handle between end of motor
shaft and mounting channel 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".
NOTE: Do not change this elevation setting until both
left and right hand table support channels have been
adjusted.

The versatility of the Radial Saw is due, in part, to its
controls, and these are the keys to its successful operation.
Learn to use the controls for all operations before actually
starting to saw.
A series of six diagrams is located on the top surface of the
arm. These designate the controls that must be used in basic
set-ups and operating procedures. You should become
familiar with these diagrams and the operating instructions
that follow, before operating your saw.

locations and functions of controls
1. Depth of Cut (Elevation)
a. The diagram shows the elevation crank which is
used to raise and lower the saw blade.
b. Clockwise rotation raises the blade . ..
counterclockwise rotation lowers it. One complete
turn of the handle will raise or lower the saw blade
1/16-inch.
Angle of Cut (Miter)
Proper Indexing Method - Experienced operators of
woodworking equipment, such as this Craftsman Radial
Saw, acquire the habit of indexing in one direction
only, whenever a new setting is made in preparation for
a different operation.
Example: When moving the arm to a miter index
position move it slightly past the desired index position,
then return to the index position carefully to index and
lock. Yoke indexing and bevel indexing can be
accomplished in a similar manner. This indexing
technique tends to neutralize any stresses impaired
upon saw components and contributes to the high
degree of accuracy the saw is capable of producing
when operated expertly.
a. The arm control lever locks, unlocks and indexes
the arm for Left and Right Miter cuts.
b. The radial arm has positive index positions at 0 °
and 4E ° Left and Right. The arm is rotated by
pulling arm control lever to index release position.
With arm control lever released the arm will
automatically index at 0 ° and 45 ° Left or Right.
After positioning arm to the desired miter angle,
push arm control lever to locked position.
UNLOCK INDEX RELEASE
LOCK I'"l
f-\ j--_
3. Yoke Pivot (Ripping)
a. Two controls are used in this operation. They are:
the swivel latch*pin lever and the yoke clamp
handle.
b. A swivel latch lever automatically indexes the yoke
at each 90 ° position. Pull the spring-loaded swivel
latch-lever forward to release this pin.
c. The yoke clamp handle locks the yoke to the
carriage in any position. Putt the handle forward to
release the yoke; push the handle rearward to secure
the yoke.
4. Carriage Lock
a. The carnage lock knob is rotated clockwise to lock
the carriage on the radial arm, and counterclockwise
to release it.
b. When performing crosscutting operations the
carriage lock knob must be rotated
counterclockwise until the carriage is free to travel
along the arm. This knob should be tightened until
the operator is ready to grasp the beveI index
handle and make a cut.
5. Blade Angle (Bevel)
a. The two controls used in angular positioning and
indexing of the motor, to provide the desired
saw-blade (bevel) angle, are: bevel lock lever and
bevel-index lever.
b. The bevel-index scale indicates the angular position
of the motor with respect to horizontal, from 0 ° to
90 ° in either vertical position.
c. The bevel index lever automatically indexes the
motor at 0 °, 45 ° and 90 ° .Move bevel index lever
to the left while positioning the blade, then release
it. At any other position it does not engage.
d. The bevel lock lever locks the motor to the yoke
when the motor is in any position. Pull lever to
release and push to lock.
6. Power Switch and Key
a. Insert key into switch lock.
""--_ J/_:_:_ _
b. Insert finger under end of switch lever and pull end
out, to turn switch on.
c. Push lever in to turn switch off.
d. WARNING: THIS LOCKING FEATURE IS
PROVIDED TO PREVENT UNAUTHORIZED
USE OF YOUR SAW. ALWAYS REMOVE THE
KEY AND KEEP IT IN A SAFE PLACE. TO
REMOVE KEY, HOLD THUMB ON END OF
LEVER TO KEEP SWITCH IN "OFF" POSITION
AND PULL KEY STRAIGHT OUT.
21
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY ALWAYS
LOCK THE SWITCH "OFF" WHEN SAW IS NOT
IN USE. REMOVE KEY AND KEEP IT IN A SAFE
PLACE . ..ALSO IN THE EVENT OF A POWER
FAILURE (ALL YOUR LIGHTS GO OUT) TURN
SWITCH OFF. LOCK IT AND REMOVE THE KEY
THIS WILL PREVENT THE SAW FROM
STARTING UP AGAIN WHEN THE POWER
COMES BACK ON.
7. Accessory Shaft
Use only the following recommended accessories:
Drill chuck, Sanding drum, and Router adapter.
CAUTION: The sawblade, dado, or cutting tool must
be removed from the saw arbor before using the
accessory shaft. NEVER operate the saw with cutting
tools (including sanding accessories) installed on both
ends of the saw arbor,
POSITIONING GUARD, ANTIKICKBACK AND
SPREADER ASSEMBLY, FOR RIPPING
WARNING: NEVER POSITION THE GUARD OR
ANTIKICKBACK ASSEMBLY WITH THE POWER
ON. NEVER POSITION THE ANTIKICKBACK
PAWLS BY GRASPING THE PAWLS OR
SPREADER.
NOSE OF
I NFEED GUARD
DIRECTION
1. The blade guard is positioned by loosening the guard
clamp screw and rotating the guard so that the nose just
clears the workpieee as shown.
This is necessary:
- to protect operator from accidentally contacting the
sawblade radially from the tnfeed direction.
--to hold down the workpiece against the table --
minimizing lifting or fluttering (particularly thin
and/or light workpieces);
- to minimize sawdust thrown toward the operator.
-to minimize the possibility of a thin pusher board
riding up on top of the workpiece with loss of control
of workpiece.
2. The antikickback and spreader assembly is used during
ripping operations and is adjustable to accommodate
the thickness of the board being ripped A wing screw
in the guard secures the assembly.
These adjustments are necessary:
Antikickback
- to stop a kickback if generated.
Spreader
-to prevent kerf from closing m on sawblade and
possible kickback;
to prevent "wrong-way feed". "Wrong-way feed" is
feeding the workpiece -- when sawblade is in a rip
position - into the outfeed side of the cutting tool
(sawblade, dado, molding head, etc.), the side
containing the antikickbackispreader. This can be
extremely hazardous because the sawblade may grab
the workpiece and throw it violently toward the nose
of the guard (infeed side of the tool). Danger label on
guard.
"Wrong-way feed" occurs when the teeth themselves
cut, or attempt to cut, a kerf in the workpiece. This
differs from a "'kickback" which is generated by the
sides (one or both) of the teeth, because of binding
between the fence (heel), pinching of the sides of the
sawbtade (failure to use spreader), and!or inadequate
set of teeth of sawblade.
- to act as a partial guard regarding accidental contact
with the sawblade at the outfeed side when ripping,
and leading edge when crosscutting.
a. The blade guard is positioned by loosening the
guard clamp screw and rotating the guard so that
the "nose" just clears the workpiece as shown.
b.The antikickbaek and spreader assembly must be
adjusted to accommodate the thickness of the
board being ripped. A wing screw in the guard
secures the assembly.

3. Loosen the wing screw and with the tab provided,
position the antikickback and spreader assembly until
the pawl assumes approximately the position shown
above. Tighten the wing screw.
(Make sure by trial before starting the cut that the
antikickback pawls will stop a kickback once it has
started). Insert workpiece alongside spreader under
outer set of pawls by approaching pawls in the feed
direction. Push workpiece sharply in the direction of a
kickback (opposite to direction of feed). Readjust
Pawls if they do not stop the kickback motion by biting

HA VE YOU FOLLO WED ALL SIX STEPS OF
THE ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE? IF YOU
HAVE NOT FOLLOWED THEM IN THEIR
PROPER SEQUENCE, YOU CANNOT
EXPECT A CCURA TE CUTTING RESUL TS.
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 he as straight as the long side of your f_aming
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 front tabte 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 , ..
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 fou_ sided frame:
a. The two side pieces nqust be exactly the same
lerrgth.
b. The top and bottom p_eces 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 successive cuts and mark a pencil
line on the table for gauging the required length.

basic saw operations
Basic saw operations are summarized into six categories,
explained and illustrated in the following paragraphs. A
book entitled "Power Tool Know How Radial Saw'" is
available at your nearest Sears Retail Store or Catalog
Store. This book contains considerable data applicable to
the radial saw.
NOTE: Refer to paragraphs under "OPERATION" for
illustrations and descriptions of controls.

basic saw operations
REQUIREMENTS FOR CROSSCUT
Board position (stationary) against rip fence (guide) and
laying flat on table top.
(OPERATIONS 1 THROUGH 4)
1. Arbor nut must be tight and saw blade guard installed
in horizontal position.
2. Arm control lever must be in locked position.
3. Adjust the antikickback assembly so the pawls just clear
the workpiece or the fence, whichever is higher.
4. Work must be held firmly against table and fence. For
workoieces thicker than the fence is high, install a
higher fence (at least workpiece thickness). Always
place the fence in the most forward position (farthest
from the column support) compatible with the
workpiece being processed and the operation being
performed. With the carriage fully retracted, the blade
must not contact the workpiece when placed against
the fence, within the stated capacities of your saw.
5. Blade should be sharp and correctly set.
6. Hands must be kept well away from saw blade.
7. Yoke clamp handle must be in locked position.
8. Bevel index lever must be locked.
9. Blade should cut into the table or plywood cover not
more than 1/32 inch.
10. Pull the saw forward just far enough to sever the
lumber. It is dangerous if the blade has been pulled too
far out beyond the piece being cut. When it is returned
it can pick up the right hand piece and throw it over the
fence.
11. For operations No. 3 and No. 4, observe additional
instructions under paragraph "Operating Controls"
"Blade Angle".
PROPER
(SEE ITEM "10" AT LEFT)
OPERATION No. 1 -- CROSSCUT
Crosscutting is the process of sawing the workpiece by
pulling the saw blade through it and using the fence as a
support for the edge of the workpiece. Never crosscut
free-hand.
WARNING: BEFORE CROSSCUTTING, MAKE SURE
THE ARM CONTROL LEVER, BEVEL LOCK LEVER
AND YOKE CLAMP ARE ALL LOCKED. NEVER USE A
LENGTH STOP OR AFIXED GUIDE ON THE FREE
END OR EDGE OF A WORKPIECE. DO NOT CROSSCUT
WORKPIECES THAT PLACE YOUR HANDS CLOSE TO
THE PATH OF THE SAW BLADE. WHEN MORE
EXPERIENCE IS GAINED BY USING THE SAW, IT
WILL BE NOTICED, THAT WHEN PULLING THE SAW
TOWARD YOU DURING CROSSCUTTING, THE BLADE
TENDS TO FEED ITSELF THROUGH THE WORK DUE
TO THE ROTATION OF THE BLADE AND THE
DIRECTION OF THE FEED. THEREFORE, YOU
SHOULD DEVELOP THE HABIT OF HOLDING YOUR
RIGHT ARM STRAIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER TO
THE WRIST.
IMPROPER
(SEE ITEM "10" AT LEFT)
REPETITIVE CROSSCUTTING
Clamp a "C" clamp (rain. 6 inch) using a wood block on
each side of the arm. This will limit the carriage travel
beyond the position necessary to complete the crosscut
operation.
24
basic saw operations
OPERATION No. 2-MITER CROSSCUT
Miter crosscutting is the process of sawing a board at any
angle other than a 90 ° (square) cut. The 45 ° miter angle is
a popular one, since two boards cut to 45 ° can be
assembled to form a 90 ° corner for producing a square or
rectangular frame. The radial arm is set to the desired angle
of cut; yoke and bevel settings indexed at 0 ° (and locked)
as in square crosscutting. The board being cut is held firmly
against the fence (guide) and the carriage pulled forward
along the radial arm to perform the desired cut. As in
"Operation No. 1", the carriage should be returned to full
rear position and the saw blade allowed to come to a
complete stop before removing the boards from saw table.
OPERATION No. 3 - BEVEL CROSSCUT
Bevel crosscutting is the process of sawing at 90 ° (square)
across the board with the saw blade set at an angle other
than 90 ° to the saw table. The radial arm and yoke are
indexed at 0 ° and locked, but the bevel is set to the desired
angle of cut. The board is held firmly against the fence and
the carriage pulled forward along the radial arm to produce
the cut. The carriage should be returned to full rearward
position and the saw blade allowed to come to a complete
stop before removing the boards from saw table.
OPERATION No. 4 - COMPOUND
CROSSCUT
Compound crosscutting is the combination of miter and
bevel crosscuts. The radia: arm and bevel are setto produce
the desired cut; the yoke is indexed at 0 ° and locked. The
board is held firmly against the fence and the carriage
pulled forward along the radial arm to produce the cut.
Again, the carriage should be returned to full rearward
position and the saw blade allowed to come to a complete
stop before removing boards from saw table.
25
REQUIREMENTS WHEN RIPPING
(OPERATIONS 5 AND 6)
1. Carriage lock knob must be locked.
2. Radial arm must be locked in 0 ° position.
3. Work must be held firmly against table and fence while
feeding through.
4. Guard spreader and antikickback (AKB) assembly must
be properly set. OBSERVE INSTRUCTIONS IN
PARAGRAPH, "POSITIONING GUARD, AND
ANTIKtCKBACK AND SPREADER ASSEMBLY FOR
RIPPING" UNDER "LOCATION AND FUNCTION
OF CONTROLS".
5. Blade should be sharp and correctly set.
6. When ripping narrow stock, less than 6 inches but more
than 1/4 inch between the guard and the fence (guide),
use a "Push Stick" at least 1/4" thick and at least 16'"
long so the workpiece is clear of the blade before your
hand contacts the guard.
SLIGHTLY LESS THAN
THICKNESS OF WORKPIECE
UP TO 3/'8"
SL!GH[LY LESS
THA N%/
(I-INCH SQUA£ES)
PLYWOOD
7. When ripping stock 1/4 inch or less between the blade
and fence (guide) use a Pusher Board.
Pusher board should not be less than 4 inches wide and
16 inches long. Nail or glue a 3/4 x 3/4 x 4 inch block
to one edge of pusher board to be used as a grip.
The pusher board should be fed into the blade behind
the stock being ripped until the stock is clear of the rear
of the blade (not more than 8 inches so as not to strike
antikickback pawls) and then pulled back with use of
the grip.
8. Hands must be kept well away from saw blade.
9. Saw blade MUST be parallel to fence, to minimize
possibility of kickbacks.
10. For every new width of cut, a new PUSHER BOARD
must be used.
11. The pusher board should be the same thickness as the
workpiece. No thinner for strength, or no thicker since
the nose of the guard must clear the top of the
workpiece with minimum clearance. I/4" OR LESS
OPERATION No. 5 -- OUT-RIPPING
AND IN-RIPPING
Ripping is the process of sawing the workpiece by
feeding it into the saw blade when using the fence as a
guide and as a positioning device to obtain the desired
width of cut. The sawblade is parallel to the fence.
WARNING: NEVER RIP FREE-HAND. BEFORE
RIPPING, MAKE SURE THE GUARD, AND
ANTI KICKBACK AND SPREADER ASSEMBLY ARE
SET UP PROPERLY. ALSO, MAKE SURE THE SAW
BLADE IS PARALLEL WITH THE FENCE. NEVER
RIP WORKPIECES SHORTER THAN THE SAW
BLADE DIAMETER.
26
4,
5.
Since the work is pushed along the fence, it must have a
straight edge in order to make sliding contact with the
fence. Also, the work must make solid contact with the
table, so that it will not wobble. Provide a straight edge,
even if this means temporarily nailing of an auxiliary
straight-edged board to the work. If the workpiece is
warped, turn the hollow side down.
Always use the saw guard and make sure the spreader is
correctly aligned with the saw kerf and antikickback
pawls properly adjusted. Wood cut with the grain tends
to spring the kerr closed and bind the blade and a
kickback could occur.
Stand a little to one side of center to be clear of,work
in case of kickback.
When ripping short or narrow work, always use a push
stick applied to the section of the workpiece between
the blade and fence . . . push the work past the blade so
it is clear of the blade. This procedure will minimize the
possibility of kickbacks.
In-Ripping. The radial arm and bevel are indexed at 0 ° and
locked, but the yoke is turned 90-degrees in a clockwise
direction (viewed from above) from the crosscut position.
Thus, when standing in front of the saw, the blade would
be, rotating counterclockwise. After positioning the guard
and antikickback mechanism the workplace is fed from the
right-hand side of the saw. The "Blade In-Rip" scale is on
the right-hand side of radial arm.
Out-Ripping. The radiai arm and bevel are indexed at 0 °
and locked, but the yoke is turned 90-degrees in a
counterclockwise direction (viewed from above), from the
crosscut position. When standing in front of the saw, blade
would be rotating clockwise. After positioning the guard
and antikickback mechanism the workpiece is fed from the
left-hand side of the saw. The"Blade Out-Rip'" scale is on
the left hand side of radial arm.
OPERATION No. 6 - BEVEL RIPPING
Bevel ripping is either in-ripping or out-ripping as described
above, except the saw blade is tilted out of perpendicular to
the saw table surface. The radial arm is indexed at 0 ° and
locked, the bevel is set to the desired bevel angle and the
yoke is positioned for in-ripping (saw blade at rear) or
out-ripping (saw blade at front), as required. All
requirements and observations applicable to normal ripping
operations also apply to bevel ripping.
DADOING
Instructions for operating the Dado Head are contained in
booklet furnished with the Dado Head.
The saw arbor is designed for dado heads up to 13/16
inches wide. Do not install a wider dado head on the arbor.
Take several pas_es if required dado cut exceeds 13/16 inch.
When installing the dado head on the arbor, ALWAYS
install the inside "loose collar" first. Be sure the teeth of
the chippers are placed to fall in blade gullets, and chippers
are approximately equally spaced around the arbor.
DO NOT install the outside !oose collar. Make sure the
arbor nut is tight. Install the arbor nut directly against the
outer blade of dado head.
For best results and to avoid excessive load on the motor,
NEVER CUT A 13/16" WIDE DADO, DEEPER THAN
3/4" IN ONE PASS.
MOLDING/SANDING
Instructions for operating the Molding Head are contained
in a booklet furnished with the Molding Head.
For use of Molding Head Cutter or Drum Sander with saw
arbor vertical the rear table requires an opening (next to
rear face of fence) for clearance. Cut this opening as shown.
REAR TABLE -_'[ --_.[ _3" j 12-I/2"

Fortop-side rabbeting or molding in the in-rip position,
relieve the fence by positionh)g the cutting tool at the
desired location on the arm, locking the Carriage Lock
Knob, and lowering the cutting tool slowly into the fence -
remove only as much material from the fence as is
necessary.
NEVER USE A DADO HEAD OR MOLDING HEAD WITH THE SAW ARBOR VERTICAL WITHOUT INSTALLING AND
ADJUSTING A MOLDING HEAD/DADO GUARD. FOR TOP-SIDE DADOING OR MOLDING, INSTALL AND ADJUST
THE SAWBLADE GUARD AND ANTIKICKBACK ASSEMBLY FOR RIPPING OR CROSSCUTTING AS APPROPRIATE.

maintenance and lubrication
MAINTENANCE NO LUBRICATION REQUIRED
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH
"OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER SOURCE
OUTLET BEFORE MAINTAINING OR LUBRICATING
YOUR SAW.
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, m 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.
Make sure the teeth of the ANTIKICKBACK pawls are
always sharp. Replace if not sharp.
LUBRICATION
Your saw is precision built and should be kept clean and
properly lubricated. Before describing the various points
which may periodically require lubrication, IT IS MORE
IMPORTANT TO FIRST MENTION THE VARIOUS
POINTS WHICH SHOULD NOT BE LUBRICATED.
Do not lubricate carriage ball bearings or motor bearings as
these are sealed ball bearings and require no added
lubrication.
Do not lubricate between radial arm cap and radial arm.
PERIODICALLY LUBRICATE THESE POINTS
Use SAE No. 10W-30 automotive engine oil and refer to
Parts List for locations. Apply a few drops of oil along the
swivel latch pin and bevel index pin only if the pin has a
tendency to stick. Remove the left-hand carriage cover and
use oil sparingly to prevent it from getting on the ball
bearings or races.
A light film of oil should be wiped on the face of the
column tube to lubricate the fit between the column tube,
and column support.
The thread on the elevation shaft assembly can be
lubricated through the oit hole in the center of the radial
arm cap.
CAUTION: Excessive oil at any location will attract
airborne dust particles and sawdust.
