Major Hazards

1. Workpiece Kickback

Kickback is an uncontrolled grabbing and

throwing of the workpiece during ripping. If

kickback occurs, the workpiece can hit

you hard enough to cause broken bones, in-

ternal organ injury or death. To reduce or

prevent kickback, read and follow the safety

information in the Ripping section of the

manual.

Kickback.

Internal injury can

result.

Use anti-kickback

pawls/spreader.

Fig, 2Kickback Safety Sign

2. Kickback Followed by Blade Contact

Kickback followed by blade contact can hap-

pen when the saw blade is pinched or bound

by the workpiece during ripping. Kickback

can happen if you reach around the blade to

the end with the anti-kickback pawls, (out-

feed 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 kicks back.

3. Wrong Way Feed

Wrong way feed is feeding the workpiece

into the end of the saw ,Mth the anti-kickback

pawls. The workpiece can be grabbed by the

blade and pul! your hands into the blade

before you can let go or pull back. Fingers,

hand or arm can be cut off.

_k DANGER: Follow the 8 steps listed

below to reduce or eliminate the risk of

being injured when using the radial arm

saw. Failure to do so can result in a life

threatening injury or death.

If a workpiece is fed into the end of the saw

with the anti-kickback pawls, it can take off

like a missile. Anyone hit by the workpiece

can be killed. Feed the workpiece into the in-

feed end of the saw blade, the end that does

not have the anti-kickback pawls.

which extend beyond the saw table. Large

workpieces can shift, twist, rise from table or

fall after they are cut.

2. Helpers can be hit by a thrown workpiece,

workpiece chips or pieces of the blade. Use

table extensions or other supports. Do not

use helpers.

3. Helpers can cause the workpiece to kick-

back. Do not use other people to support or

assist in feeding or pulling the workpiece.

Use table extensions. See Recommended Ac-

cessories section of the manual.

4. When table extensions over 24 inches wide

are added to either side of the saw, make

sure you either bolt the saw to the floor or

support the outer end of the extension from

the floor with sturdy legs or an outrigger.

saw is in the rearmost position.

, Alignment of the Blade

ALIGNMENT OF THE BLADE IS THE

MOST IMPORTANT STEP IN

ASSEMBLING YOUR RADIAL ARM

SAW.

The blade of your radial arm saw must be

aligned properly for two reasons: to make

cuts accurate, and to prevent binding of the

Made and workpiece which can cause jams or

thrown workpieces.

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

cut accurately. If you miss an adjustment, you

must go back to the adjustment you missed

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 just right.

4UkWARNING: Plugging the saw in

during alignment can result in electrical

shock or your fingers, hand, or arm

being cut off from blade contact. Do not

plug in the saw at any time during align-

ment. The saw should only be plugged

in when it is to be used.

Make sure that the blade and blade guard are

removed from the arbor shaft before begin-

ning to align your saw. Do not install the

blade or blade guard until you are instructed

to do so.

Adjusting Elevation

The goal of this adjustment is to make up-

ward and downward movement of the radial

arm smooth and firm. If the column that sup-

ports the arm is too tight it will be difficult to

move the ar_a up and down and to get ac-

curate depth of cut. If the column is loose the

blade may "walk" on the workpiece and stall

the motor, or cause a heel in bevel and com-

pound cuts. 17

1. Use a 1/8" hex "'L" wrench to loosen the

four screws in the front of the column

support. (Figure 35)

Screws

Fig. 35

2. Raise and lower the radial ann by turning

the handwheel a few turns in each direction.

tt should take about the same amount of ef-

fort to lower the arm as to raise it.

3. If movement seems smooth and the

column does not rock back and forth, go to

the next section, or

If movement seems difficult, loosen the four

bolts in the back of the column slightly

(Figure 36) and go back to step 2, or

If column rocks back and forth, tighten the

four bolts in the back of the column slightly

(Figure 36) and go back to step 2.

Squaring Crosscut Travel

The blade must travel perpendicular to the

fence along the radial arm in order for cross-

cuts to be accurate. If the radial arm is not

perpendicular to the fence, there will be a

slight miter angle in all crosscuts.

_IbWARNING: Plugging in the saw dur-

ing alignment can result in your fingers,

hands, or arm being cut off from blade

contact. Do not plug in the saw at any

time during alignment. The saw should

only be plugged in when it is to be used.

Installing Guard /Setting

Spreader

The blade guard and the spreader are very

important safety features of your saw. The

guard covers a large part of the blade and

reduces the risk of amputation. The spreader

rides in the kerf of the cut wood during rip-

ping, and helps keep the two sides from

pinching the blade and causing a kickback.

&LWARNING: Fingers, hand, or arm

can be cut off from blade contact if the

blade guard is not used properly. Al-

ways put the blade guard on your saw

and adjust it correctly.

41& WARNING: Kickback can occur if

the spreader is not in line with the

blade. You can be injured or killed. Al-

ways adjust the spreader and make sure

that it is directly in line with the blade.

1. Loosen the guard clamp screw until it no

longer touches the metalplate. (Figure 73)

Crosscutting

Crosscutting is used to cut a workpiece to

length. The workpiece is held against the

fence. The saw blade is pulled through the

workpiece. Cuts are usually made across the

grain of the workpiece.

Types of Crosscuts

The basic types of crosscuts are shown below.

Notice the hand and body position in each.

Safety Information for

Crosscutting

Read and follow the safety information below

before making any type of crosscut.

WARNING

1. Set guard and anti-kickback pawls to

proper height to serve as apartial barrier.

2. The saw blade can throw the

workpiece over the fence if the blade is

pushed backwards into workpiece.You

or others can be hit and injured by the

thrown workpiece. Start a crosscut with

the blade in its rearmost position.

3. If the blade is pulled through the

workpiece beyond the middle of the

blade, it can:

•pick up and throw the cut-off sec-

tion of the workpiece which could

hit and injure you or others in the

area, or;

•lift or move the held-down section

of the workpiece and pull your

hand into the blade as the blade

is returned. Pull the saw blade

through the workpiece to the dis-

tance shown below.

4. Fingers or hand can slip into the saw

blade as you make a crosscut. Fingers,

hand or arm can be cut off. Keep the

hand holding the workpiece at least 8 in-

ches to the side of the workpiece, out of

the path of the saw blade. Keep hand

holding the workpiece in view at all

times.

5. The blade can come completely off

table edge beyond the 30 ° left miter

position. Fingers, hands, arms or legs

can be cut off. Use the right miter posi-

tion whenever possible to make miter

crosscuts.

6. The blade continues to turn for about

12 seconds after the saw is turned

off. Wait for the blade to stop before

reaching for the workpiece.

7. If length stops are used on the cut-off

end of workpiece, the cut-off end can

be thrown by the blade. The workpiece

could hit and injure you or others in the

area. Do not use a length stop on the

cut-off end of the workpiece. Use a

length stop only on the end of the

workpiece which is held down.

8. Holding on to or touching the cut off

end of the workpiece while the saw

blade is still turning can cause the

workpiece to pinch the blade. The

workpiece can be thrown and hit and in-

jure you or others in the area. Do not

touch, hold on to, push, or grab the cut-

off piece of the workpiece while the

power is on or the saw blade is turning.

9. The saw can throw the workpiece,

workpiece chips or pieces of the blade

violently. You can be blinded. Wear

safety goggles.

Fig. 86 Blade Distance to Complete Crosscut 37

10. The workpiece cannot be controlled

or held stable enough to do free hand

cutting. The workpiece can be thrown or

slip and pull fingers and hand into the

saw blade. Fingers or hand can be cut

off. Set the radial arm to the desired

cutting angle. Keep workpiece flat on

table and solidly against the fence.

Blade Guard, Anti-Kickback

Pawls and Spreader

The blade guard, anti-kickback pawls and

spreader are designed to reduce or eliminate

the risk of injury from contact with the upper

half of the blade and the leading edge of the

blade when:

11. Saw parts loosen and wear with

use. You or others can be injured. Keep

all parts tight and in working order.

•the guard is in the horizontal position

and;

12. The fence must be of at least equal

height to the workpiece or else the

workpiece can be lifted or thrown and hit

and injure you or others in the area. See

Cutting Accessories section for instruc-

tions to make a fence.

the pawls and spreader are set to

clear the top of the fence and

workpiece by about 1/8 inch.

The Blade Guard:

13. The blade will try to pull itself

through the workpiece. Be prepared to

hold the saw handle back to keep the

saw blade from coming toward you.

14. Lock rip lock after every crosscut, or

else the blade will suddenly come

toward you when you lower it to make a

crosscut.

15. Whenever the blade is turning, keep

one hand on the saw handle to keep the

saw blade from coming toward you.

16. Cutting more than one workpiece at

a time can cause you to lose control of

the workpieces, which can be thrown

and hit and injure you or others in the

area. Cut only one workpiece at a time.

Do not stack or lay workpieces edge to

edge.

•provides protection from contact with

the upper half of the blade;

•helps keep the workpiece from jam-

ming in the guard and;

•helps catch or deflect workpiece chips

or pieces of the blade.

The Anti-kickback Bar, Pawls and Spreader:

•serve as a partial barrier to provide

protection from contact with the lead-

ing edge of the blade.

AI_ WARNING: To reduce the risk of

contact with the upper half of the blade

and keep the workpiece from jamming

in the guard, set the blade guard in the

horizontal position. Fig. 90.

Cutting Table and Fence

Kerfs

You will need to cut a new table kerf (shal-

low cut) and fence kerf (slot left in the fence

from sawing through it with the blade), each

time a new cutting angle is used. The table

kerr lets the blade cut all the way through a

workpiece.

serve as a barrier for the leading edge

or the blade. Set the anti-kickback

pawls to clear the top of the fence and

workpiece by about 1/8 inch.

AWARNING: The fence must be at

least equal height or higher than the

workpiece you are going to cut or else

the workpiece can be thrown and injure

you or others in the area. Install a fence

of at least equal height to the workpiece.

1. Put your fence in position A as shown and

lock the table locks.

41&WARNING: The saw blade tries to

pull itself through the workpiece. Be

prepared to hold saw handle back to

keep the saw blade from coming toward

you. Keep one hand on the saw handle

at all times.

_WARNING: If the saw blade is pulled

through the workpiece beyond the mid-

dle of the saw blade, it can:

• pick up and throw the cut-off sec-

tion of the workpiece which could

hit and injure you or others in the

area, or;

. lift or move the held-down section

of the workpiece and draw your

hand into the blade as the blade

is returned.

3. Lower the blade into but not touching the

table kerr.

Pull the saw blade through the

workpiece to the distance shown below. 12. Support and hold the workpiece down

and against the fence firmly with your left

hand.

Fig. 92 Distance Needed to Complete Crosscut

13. Pull blade through fence and workpiece

just enough to complete the cut. Fig 92.

Ripping

Ripping is used to change the width of the

workpieee 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 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.

Fig. 96 In-Rip Saw Position

In out-rip position, motor is toward fence and

the blade is toward the front of the table.

Fig, 97 Out-Rip Saw Fosition (Infeed End)

AilkWARNIN_: Stand only at infeed end

of saw. Feed workpiece only into infeed

end of saw as shown above.

When to Use In-Rip or Out-Rip

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

workpieces less than 14 inches wide.

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 set-

ting the saw blade 1 inch from the fence.

_ILWARNINt_: If the blade is set between 2

inches and 6 inches from the fence, hands

will be brought too close to the blade.

Fingers and hand can be cut off. Use a push

stick.

For example, if the workpiece is 7 inches

wide and you want to cut 1 inch off the

workpiece, place the saw blade 6 inches from

the fence and use a push stick. Use a push

stick when the distance between the saw

blade and fence is between 2 inches and 6 in-

ches. See Cutting Accessories section on how

to make and use a push stick.

_1_ WARNING: If the blade is set between

1/2 inch and 2inches from the fence, hands

will be brought too close to the blade.

Fingers/hand can be cut off. Use an auxiliary

fence/push block.

For example, if the workpiece is 3 inches

wide and you want to cut 1 inch off the

workpiece, place the saw blade 2 inches from

the fence and use a push block and auxiliary

fence. See Cutting Accessories section.

Safety Information for

Ripping

Read and follow the safety infl)rmation below

before making any type of rip cut.

_lb DANGER

1. Kickback can happen when the saw

blade is pinched or bound by the

workpiece. This creates force in the op-

posite direction to which the workpiece

is being fed. The teeth of the blade grab

and throw the workpiece violently back

out of the saw.

Kickback can happen when:

Anti-kickback pawls/spreader are not

used or not correctly adjusted.

Spreader is not in line with the blade.

Blade is not parallel to the rip fence.

Edge of workpiece is not in contact with

the rip fence or not straight.

Workpiece is twisted or warped and rocks

on the table top.

Edge of workpiece is not completely

against the rip fence, leaving gaps

between the fence and workpiece edge.

Workpiece is released before being

pushed completely past the saw blade.

Feeding pressure is put on the section

of the workpiece farthest from the fence.

2. One of the most common and the

most dangerous mistakes people make

is to reach for the workpiece at the out-

feed side of the saw. DON'T ! The

workpiece could kickback as you reach

for, touch or try to pull the workpiece

through the blade. You can lose your

fingers, hand, or arm. The blade guard

does NOT provide complete protection

at outfeed end of the saw. Do not reach

for the workpiece at outfeed end of the

saw. Fingers, hand or arm can be cut

off. Follow instructions for ripping.

Kickback,

Blade Contact.

Fingers, hand or arm

can be cut off.

Follow instructions

for ripping.

Fig. 98 Kickback, Blade Contact Safety/Sign

3. The workpiece can also kickback

violently toward you during a rip cut.

You can be hit hard enough to cause

broken bones and/or internal injury.

Keep blade guard, anti-kickback pawls

and spreader in place and adjusted.

Apply feed pressure to the section of

the workpiece next to the fence. Do not

apply feed pressure on the section of

the workpiece away from the fence.

Stand out of the path of the workpiece.

Kickback.

Broken bones/inter-

nal injuries result.

Usepawlsispreader.

Stand out of

workpiece path.

Fig. 99 Kickback, Thrown Workpiece Safety Sign

4. Non-fhru cuts increase the chance of

kickback because the anti-kickback

pawls cannot always grab the irregular

workpiece surface. Use afeatherboard.

See Cutting Accessories section on how

to make and use afeatherboard.

5. The workpiece can snag or hang up

on afence with a kerf in it. The

workpiece can be thrown or pinch the

blade, causing kickback. Use solid fen-

ces when making rip cuts.

6. Wood cut with the grain can spring

the kerr closed, bind the blade, and

cause a kickback. Adjust spreader to

ride in the kerf and prevent the kerf

from closing on saw blade.

7. Composition materials, like particle

boards and plastics, may be cut on the

saw. Because these materials often

have a harder and more slippery surface

than wood, the anti-kickback pawls may

not stop a kickback. Place finished side

of workpiece down, roughest side of

workpiece up. Make anti-kickback pawls

and spreader adjustments. Stand out of

the path of workpiece.

2. The workpiece can be grabbed by the

saw blade and take off like a missile.

Anyone standing in the path of the

workpiece can be killed.

Fig. 100 Wrong Way Feed Safety Signs

Always feed the workpiece against the

direction of rotation of the blade, at the

infeed end of the blade.

_IL DANGER: Wrong Way Feed

Wrong way feed is feeding the

workpiece into the end of the blade with

pawls, the outfeed end. (Fig. 101) There

are two things that can happen if you

feed the workpiece into the outfeed end

of the saw blade:

1. The workpiece can be grabbed by the

blade and pull your hands into the blade

before you can let go or pull back.

Fingers, hands or arms can be cut off. Fig. 101 Infeed and Outfeed Ends of Saw Blade

Blade Guard, Anti-kickback

Pawls and Spreader

The blade guard, anti-kickback pawls and

workpiece spreader are designed to reduce or

eliminate the risk of injury from blade con-

tact, workpiece kickback and wrong way feed.

The Blade Guard:

• serves as a partial barrier to help

keep hands from contacting the blade

at the infeed end of the saw blade.

• helps keep the workpiece from lifting

or fluttering during ripping.

• helps catch or deflect workpiece chips

or pieces of the blade.

The Anti-Kickback Pawls :

• help reduce kickback by grabbing into

and holding the workpiece.

• act as a barrier to provide some

protection from blade contact.

The Spreader:

• helps keep the kerf of the workpiece

open, which helps prevent the blade

from being pinched and causing

workpiece kickback.

• when correctly set, helps reduce or

eliminate the chance of wrong way

feed because it blocks the workpiece

from contacting the saw blade.

4_kWARNING: The anti-kickback pawls

and spreader adjustments must be made

each time a different thickness workpiece

is cut to reduce or eliminate kickback.

Rip Cutting Checklist

Use the following rip cutting checklist at the

beginning of each new cutting period to

reduce the risk of an accident.

Rip Cutting Checklist

Yellow key removed from switch.

Saw unplugged and switch off.

No play in the carriage, yoke or column.

Arm slopes to the rear and table level side

to side.

Arbor nut snug.

locks locked.

Blade guard, anti-kickback pawls and

spreader adjusted.

Use push stick if cutting between 2 and

6 inches off workpiece.

Use push block if cutting between 1/2

and 2 inches off workpiece.

Use featherboard if making a non-through

cut and when needed on through cuts.

Read and follow instructions for the type

of rip cut you want to make.

Making a Rip Cut Table Kerr

You will need to make a table kerf before a

rip cut can be made. Eve Utime you move

the blade a new distance from the fence, you

will need to make a new kerf.

Blade Guard Adjustments

1. Unplug saw and remove yellow key.

2. Put saw in In-Rip position and lock the

saw arm in the 0° position.

1. Put saw in desired rip position and lock the

saw arm in the 0°position.

2. Lock rip, swivel, miter, bevel and table

locks.

3. Adjust saw arm with handwheel until the

saw blade almost touches tile table top.

4. Plug the saw into a grounded outlet.

5. Put on safety goggles.

6. Insert the yellow" key in the red switch.

7. Turn saw on.

8. Lower saw blade until blade touches the

table.

9. _I'urn ttle handwheel about 1 full turn

more. This will make a 1/16 to 1/8 inch kerr

in the table.

_I=WARNING: For workpieces 1/4 inch

thick or less, make the rip kerr at least

1/8 inch deep to keep the saw blade

from rising up on top of workpieces and

violently throwing them.

10. Turn saw off and remove yellow key.

11. Unplug saw at the end of cutting session.

Adjustments for Ripping

'_ DANGER: You will need to make

blade guard, anti-kickback pawls and

spreader adjustments before making a rip

cut.

Making Rip Cuts

When to Use In-Rip or Out-Rip

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" posi-

tion is when the workpiece is 14 inches or

wider. Use the in-rip position for all

workpieces less than 14 inches wide.

Workpiece Positioning for Ripping

Always set up the saw blade so the widest

part of the workpiece is be_'een 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 set-

ting the saw blade 1 inch from the fence.

A _

I_WARNINr_: If the blade is set be-

tween 2inches and 6inches from the

fence, hands will be brought too close

to the blade. Fingers and hand can be

cut off. Use a push stick.

4. Tighten wing screw.

5. Go to the infeed end of the saw blade.

6. Push the workpiece a few inches in the

direction of the cut and then pull the

workpiece back toward you. The pawls

should have grabbed the wood and stopped

the kickback motion by grabbing into the

workpiece. If they did not, repeat adjust-

ments until the pawls grab the workpiece. If

the pawls fail to grab the workpiece, sharpen

or replace them. If that fails to work, use a

featherboard. Repeat steps for making anti-

kickback pawls and spreader adjustments

above.

For example, if the workpiece is 7 inches

wide and you want to cut 1 inch off the

workpiece, place the saw blade 6 inches from

the fence and use a push stick. Use a push

stick when the distance between the saw

blade and fence is between 2 inches and 6 in-

ches. See Cutting Accessories section on how

to make and use a push stick.

_IWARNING: If the blade is set be-

tween 1/2 inch and 2 inches from the

fence, hands will be brought too close

to the blade. Fingers/hand can be cut

off. Use an auxiliary fence/push block.

For example, if the workpiece is 3 inches

wide and you want to cut 1 inch off the

workpiece, place the saw blade 2 inches from

the fence and use a push block and auxiliary

fence. See Cutting Accessories section.

A'k _

II_WARNINL_: When making through

rip cuts do not set the blade closer than

1/2 inch from the fence or auxiliary

fence, your hands will be brought too

close to the blade. Your fingers and

hand can be cut off. Do not use aradial

arm saw to rip cut less than 1/2 inch

wide workpieces.

1. Set the blade to desired distance from the

fence and lock tile saw arm in the 0° position.

2. Lock rip, swivel, miter, bevel and table

locks.

9. Stand out of the line of the workpiece to

be clear of workpiece in case of kickback.

3. Make blade guard, anti-kickback pawls and

spreader adjustments.

4. Remove workpiece from table.

5. Turn saw on.

6. Place workpiece under the guard nose,

keeping workpiece edge against the fence.

7. Place one hand flat oil the workpiece and

next to fence.

8. Place the other hand behind the first so

that your fingers are:

• on the back edge of workpiece;

• out of the blade path and,

• as close to the fence as possible.

_k A

MLWARNINL_: Even when all steps to

reduce kickback are taken, the

workpiece can still kickback. You or

others in the area can be hit hard

enough to cause broken bones or inter-

nal organ injury. Stand out of the line of

the saw blade and workpiece.

Fig. 105 Hand and BodyPosition for Making an In-

Rip Cut

10. Position your body at the infeed end of

the saw blade. Start and complete the cut

from that same side.

11. Push the workpiece, putting pressure on

the part of the workpiece between the blade

and the fence. If you push the part of the

workpiece on the other side of the blade, the

blade could be pinched and the workpicce

will kickback.

12. Keep pushing the section of the

workpiece between the blade and the fence

until the piece has been pushed completely

past the anti-kickback pawls.

_, DANGER: The blade guard does

NOT provide complete protection at out-

feed end of the saw blade. The

workpiece could kickback as you reach

for, touch or pull the workpiece through

the blade, pulling your hand into the

blade. Fingers, hand, or arm can be cut

off. Do not pull, hold-down or touch the

workpiece at the outfeed end of the saw.

Kickback,

Blade Contact.

Follow instructions

for ripping.

Fig. 106 Kickback, Blade Contact Safety Sign

13. Turn the saw off

WARNING: Blade continues to turn

for about 12 seconds after power is

turned off. Do not reach for cut

workpiece until blade stops. Fingers or

hand can be cut off by the turning

blade. Wait for blade to stop turning.

14. Remove yellow key from red switch.

Bevel Ripping

To make a bevel rip cut:

1. Set the saw in the desired position.

2. Index the arm to 0° and lock in position.

3. Bevel the blade to the desired angle.

4. Follow steps for making a rip cut.

Note" For dadoing, molding and edging, fol-

low instructions for crosscutting.

Dadoing

1. Instructions for using dado blades are

provided with the dado blade.

2. The saw arbor is designed for a dado set

up to 13/16 inches wide. Use of a wider dado

on the arbor could cause the dado and arbor

nut to spin off. Take several passes of the

dado if cut required is greater than 13/16 of

an inch wide.

3. To avoid excessive load on the motor

never cut a 13/16 inch wide dado deeper than

1/8 inch in one pass.

4. When installing the dado on the arbor, al-

ways install the inside loose collar first to en-

sure good arbor nut engagement. Make sure

the arbor nut is snug. Install the arbor nut

directly against the outside of the dado.

Molding

1. Instructions for using the molding head are

provided with the molding head.

2. Use of molding head or drum sander with

the saw arbor vertical requires an opening

(next to rear face of fence) for saw arbor

clearance. See Cutting Accessories section to

make a molding fence.

Edging

1. Edging requires the use of a dado or mold-

ing head in the horizontal position (parallel

to table).

2. Use proper accessory guard when edging.

See Recommended Accessories section.

_WARNING: Using the saw without the

proper accessory guard for edging is ex-

tremely dangerous. Hands, fingers or

arm can be cut off. Buy, use and follow

instructions for edging guard.

3. Use an auxiliary fence when edging with

the radial arm in the 0° miter position. See

Cutting Accessories section to make auxiliary

fence for edging in the 0° miter position.

_1_ WARNING: If the auxiliary fence is

not used when the saw arm is in the 0 °

crosscut position, the molding head can-

not be located behind the fence for safe

and proper operation.

3. Remove saw [)lade, dado, or other acces-

sory from the saw arbor shaft before using

the accessory shaft. Do not use the saw with

accessories installed on both ends of the saw

arbor shaft at the same time.

4. Edging can also be done in the 30 °left

miter without the use of an auxiliary fence.

Folh)w the instructions below.

4. Make sure the unused shaft is covered by a

guard, the arm, or the screw cap to avoid

being pulled into moving parts by hair,

threads, clothing.

• Miter the arm to the left approximate-

ly 30 °.

$ Swivel the motor until bottom of

motor is parallel to and facing the rip

fence and operating instructions label

is visible.

5. Drill chucks can bend and pieces of the

drill bit can break. You can be blinded or in-

jured if hit by thrown pieces. Do not use twist

drills longer than 7 inches.

6. Use a spade type drill of 1 inch diameter

or smaller. Use for drilling only wood or plas-

tic because the speed is not high enough for

other types of materials.

• Follow all steps outlined on motor

label as shown below.

Fig. 107 Edging Label

Accessory Safety

1. For your safety use only recommended ac-

cessories. Use of any other accessories may

increase the risk of injury. See Recom-

mended Accessory section of manual.

2. Use of grinding wheels, abrasive or cut off

wheels, or wire wheels is dangerous because

they can break explosively and throw pieces.

You can be blinded or recieve a life threaten-

ing puncture wound. Do not use grinding

wheels, abrasive/cut off wheels or wire wheels.

7. Do not use other reduced shank drills.

8. Remove adjusting wrenches. Form habit of

checking to see that adjusting wrenches are

removed from tool before turning it on.

9. When using the accessory shaft in the verti-

cal position, swivel the motor 90 ° so that the

arbor shaft is under the radial arm as shown.

=WARNING: Clothing, hair, jewelry can

be caught and pulled into an exposed

arbor shaft. Fingers, hand or arm can be

broken or cut off. Place the arbor shaft

under the radial arm when using the ac..

cessory shaft.

Fences

Fences are required for all saw operations.

Crosscutting requires fences with kerfs (slots)

to match the path of the saw, because the saw

blade is pulled through the kerf in the fence

to cut the workpiece.

Ripping requires a solid fence with no kerfs

or slots, because the fence serves as a guide

for the workpiece being pushed into the saw

blade. If the workpiece is pushed along a

fence with kerfs, the workpiece can get

caught on a kerf, pinch the blade and cause

the workpiece to kickback.

Make anew fence:

•when the fence used for crosscutting

has weakened from having too many

kerfs cut in it;

• when you want to make a rip cut but

the fence on the saw has kerfs;

• when you want to crosscut a

workpiece higher than your current

fence.

To make a new fence:

1. Use 3/4 inch knot free lumber. Do not use

particle board or other composite material be-

cause they are not strong enough.

2. Cut lumber to a length equal to the length

of the table, and to a width equal to the

height of the workpiece plus one inch. The

installed fence must be equal to or higher

than the workpiece.

Push Stick

Push sticks are used during ripping when the

blade is placed between 2 and 6 inches from

the fence.

Make a push stick when:

• the blade is to be placed 2 to 6 in-

ches from the fence;

• existing push stick has been damaged.

To make a push slick:

1. Use 3/4 inch solid (knot free) piece of lum-

ber.

2. Cut a piece 15 inches long by 1 5/8 inches

wide.

3. Cut a 45 degree notch in one end as shown.

Auxiliary Fence and Push

Block

An auxiliary fence must be used if the blade

is positioned between 1/2 inch and 2 inches

from the fence during ripping. An auxiliary

fence must always be used with a push block.

Their purpose is to keep your hands away

from the saw blade. They are also needed

when you use the molding head.

Make an auxiliary fence when:

• the blade is to be placed 2 inches or

less from the fence;

• an existing auxiliary fence is not the

same width all along its length;

• the existing auxiliary fence has been

damaged by blade contact.

To make auxiliary fence:

1. Use one piece of 3/8 inch plywood and two

pieces of 3/4 inch plywood.

2. Cut the 3/8 inch plywood to 40 inches

long by 5 1/2 inches wide.

3. Cut one piece of 3/4 inch plywood to 40 in-

ches long by 3 5/8 inches wide.

4. Cut other piece of 3/4 inch plywood to 40

inches long by 2 1/4 inches wide.

5. Glue the two 3/4 inch plywood pieces

together so that they line up square (flush)

on an edge.

6. Glue the 3/8 inch plywood piece at right

angle to and flush against the 2 1/4 inch wide

3/4 inch plywood.

7. Reinforce with nails.

Push blocks are always used with an auxiliary

fence,

Make a push block when:

•the blade is to be placed 1/2 inch to 2

inches from the fence;

• you make the first auxiliary fence;

• existing push block has been damaged.

To make a push block:

1. Use one piece of 3/4 inch plywood and one

piece of 3/8 inch plywood.

2. Cut the 3/4 inch plywood to 12 inches long

by 5 inches wide.

3. Cut a triangular piece off each of two

corners of the 12 inch side by marking with a

pencil in and down from the corners 1 1/4 in-

ches and cutting along the diagonal formed

by the points.

4. Cut the 3/8 inch plywood to 12 inches long

by 5 1/8 inches wide.

5. Cut out a notch from the 12 inch side of

tile 3/8 plywood that is 9 1/2 inches long by

.3/8 inch wide. The dimensions of the remain-

ing 3/8 plywood are shown in Fig. 165.

6. Glue the 3/4 inch pl_'ood on top of tile

Auxiliary Fence for Edging

Make an auxiliary fence for edging:

• before doing edging with the arm at

0° miter position.

• when existing ones have been

damaged.

To make a fence for edging:

1. Use 3/4 inch solid (knot-free) lumber.

2. Cut to the dimensions shown.

7. Cut a piece of plywood 3/8 inch wide by

2 1/2 inches long and glue it to the underside

of the 3/8 inch plywood in line with the edge

that sticks out. Do not use nails because if

you accidemly cut into the push block with

the saw blade, the nails will dull the blade.

8. Lay the push block on top of the auxiliary

fence to make sure that their widths match ex-

actly, and are each 4 3/4 inches.

Featherboard

Featherboards are used during rip cutting to

help keep the workpiece against the fence.

The featherboard is clamped to the front

table, so that the angled edge of the feather-

board is against the workpiece on the infeed

end of the blade. The other edge of the

workpiece is against the fence.

Make new featherboards when existing ones

have been damaged.

!. Use solid (knot free) lumber 24 inches by

5 1/2 inches by 3/4 inch.

2. On the 24 inch sides mark a point 5 1/2 in-

ches down on the left and 9 1/2 inches down

on the right from the edge of the board.

Draw a line between the points.

3.Crosscut workpiece at a 30 ° angle then rip

to make the kerfs.

4. Do not clamp the featherboard against the

cut off part of the workpiece.

* Recommended means that these accessories

are designed to fit this radial arm saw. Read

and follow accessory instructions on their use

and limitations.

Lower Retractable Guard

Alower retractable guard which meets

OStIA requirements for occupational use

of the radial saw is available. (See Note)

The lower guard is designed to provide

protection from contact with the flat sides

of the blade when the radial saw is in the

90 ° crosscut position and in its rearmost

position behind the fence. The lower

guard only provides protection against

minor lacerations and bruises.

A_,WARNING: The lower guard does

not provide protection during actual

crosscutting or ripping, or from con-

tact in line with or at an angle to the

saw blade teeth. When in the cut, the

inner and outer guards ride on top of

the fence or workpiece exposing the

saw blade teeth. Fingers, hands or

arm can be cut off if the saw blade is

contacted. Additional hazards are ex-

plained in the instructions accompan-

ing the lower blade guard.

_lb WARNING: The lower blade

guard can get caught or jammed in

fence and table kerfs, jam while set-

ting up for and while making bevel

and compound miter cuts and jam

during certain in-rip cuts. The

workpiece or narrow cut-off pieces

could kickback causing your hands

to be cut by the blade. Use the

lower retractable guard in the 90 °

crosscut position only.

Helpful Hints

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.

4. Clean all sawdust and woodchips

from the table.

5. Hold the workpiece firmly against the

fence and table dnring all cuts. You

should use extra force during miter and

bevel cuts since the workpiece tends to

move when these cuts are made.

6. Use the right sawblade for each job,

and make sure that all blades and cut-

ting tools are sharp.

When making a four-sided frame:

1. Make sure that the top and bottom

pieces are exactly the same length.

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. Con-

tinue this way until all four cuts are

made. (Figure 119)

2. Make sure that both side pieces are

exactly the same length.

Motor

To axoid motor damage this motor should be

blown out or vacuumed frequently to prevent

sawdust buildup which will interfere with

normal motor ventilation.

Frequently blowing of fuses or tripping of

circuit breakers may result if:

•Motor is overloaded: Overloading can oc-

cur if you feed too rapidly or if saw is mis-

aligned so that the blade heels.

If the motor fails to start, turn the power

switch to the "OFF" position immediately.

Remove the yellow key. UNPLUG THE

TOOL. Check the saw blade to insure that it

turns freely and that its teeth are not wedged

into the table top. After the blade has been

freed, try to start the motor again. If, at this

point, the motor still fails to start, refer to the

"Motor Trouble-Shooting Chart."

• Motor circuit is fused differently from rec-

ommendations: 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 de-

signed for operation on the voltage and fre-

quency specified on the nameplate, normal

loads will be handled safely on voltages not

more than 10% above or below the name-

plate voltage. Heavy loads, however, re-

quire that voltage at motor terminals equal

the voltage specified on nameplate.

• Improper extension cord size.

If the motor should suddenly stall while cut-

ting wood, the power switch should be turned

off, remove the yellow key and unplug the

power cord. Free the blade from the wood.

The motor may now be restarted and the cut

finished.

Maintaining Your Saw

General

MLWARNING: For your own safety,

turn power switch off and remove plug

from power source outlet before main-

taining 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 bear-

ings 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.

Replacing Antikickback Pawls

Make sure the teeth of the antikickbackpawls

are always sharp. If they become dull they

must be replace/d. With a 1/2 inch wrench or

socket removg_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.)

Cleaning

Periodically remove any hea W 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, Swivel Lock, later in

this section.)

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.

Lubrication

Your saw is precision built and should be

kept properly lubricated. Before describing

the various points which may periodically re-

quire lubrication, it is more important to first

mention the points which should not be lubri-

cated.

Do not lubricate the following:

•carriage ball bearings

•motor bearings

• area between the miter locking rings

and the column tube

The carriage bali bearings and motor bearings

are sealed bali bearings which require no

added lubrication.

Do lubricate the following, periodically, using

SAE No 10W-30 automotive engine oil:

•Apply a few drops of oil along the

swivel index pin and the bevel index phz

only if the pins have a tendency to

stick. Swivel to in-rip or out-rip for

easy access to the swivel index pin.

Bevel to 45°and bevel indexpin can be

easily accessed behind the yoke as il-

lustrated. (Figure 121)

rat)

,Lubricate the cam surfaces of the rip

lock assembly.

•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. With elevation hand-

wheel raise arm to upper limit.

•The thread on the elevation shaft as-

sembly can be lubricated through the

oil hole in the center of the radial arm

cap. Lubricate ramp on the swivel index

spring.

Fig. 120- Swivel and Bevel Index Pins

,Lubricate the bearing points where the

arm attaches to the column tube. With

a#2 Phillips screwdriver remove two

screws and the rear arm cover for ac-

cess to these points. Be careful not to

get lubricant on the locking rings as this

will adversely affect the miter locking

function. (Figure 121)

,Apply a few drops of oil to the foot as-

semblies, where the levers are inserted

through the rods.

Do not use too much oil. Excessive oil at any

location will attract airborne dust particles

and sawdust.

Refer to parts lists for locations of parts as

needed.

Fig. 12! -Bearing Points Where Arm Attaches to

Column Tube

Adjustments for Wear

Bevel Lock

The purpose of the bevel lock is to lock the

motor at any bevel angle. An adjustment is

required if the motor can be easily moved by

hand when the bevel lock is locked or if bevel

lock offers minimal resistance when moving it

to the locked position. To make this adjust-

ment:

Swivel l,ock

This handle provides a friction lock between

the upper face of the yoke and the bottom

face of the carriage. It should eliminate any

play or rotation between these two parts when

locked. An adjustment is required if the yoke

can be easily rotated by hand when handle is

locked or yoke lock handle offers minimal

resistance when moving handle to the locked

position. I"o make this adjustment:

1. Remove motor support cover.

2. Position the motor at approximately 30 °

bevel angle and lock bevel lock. (Figure 122)

Fig. 122 -Bevel Lock -Locked

3. With a 3/4 socket tighten the 1/2-13 hex

nut located at the back of the motor support

casting until the motor can no longer be easily

moved by hand. Do not overtighten.

4. Unlock bevel lock and move motor to any

of the five index positions. If the motor does

not index securely the adjustment is too tight.

Loosen 1/2-13 hex nut until bevel indexpin

seats properly.

5. Adjustment is complete when both locking

and indexing functions are working properly.

Replace motor support cover.

arm. This will separate the wrench portion

from the arm portion of the swivel lock.

3. Using the wrench portion tighten the

square nut one quarter rotation at a time. This

is done by locating the wrench across the

corners of the square nut then moving the

wrench until it lines up with the arm portion

and the two screw holes are in line.

2. Push the carriage back against the rear stop.

3. Hold the front carriage bearing with your

fingers as tight as possible and pull carriage

forward at the same time. If you can prevent

the bearing from turning an adjustment is re-

quired. (Figure 126)

Fig. 126 -Front Carriage Bearings

4. Repeat step 3 with the rear carriage bear-

ings.

To adjust the carriage bea_ngs perform the

following steps:

1. Clean and lubricate the bearing races and

the bead on which they ride prior to adjust-

ment.

2. To adjust the bearing, use a 9/16 inch

wrench to hold the bolt head while using a

1/2 inch wrench to loosen the hex nut.

(Figure 127)

Fig. 127- Location of Flex Nut

3. Rotate the eccentric bolts a partial turn

(left or right) as required to take up loose-

ness. Both bolts should be adjusted an equal

amount to maintain blade squareness to the

table in the rip positions.

4. Hold the head of the eccentric bolts in their

new position and retighten the nuts. Do not

overtighten. Overtightening the bearings will

cause difficult operation and severly reduce

the life of the track and bearings.

5. Repeat the test procedure as described

above and readjust if necessary.

Miter Lock

The miter lock operates adjustable locking

bands which lock the arm to the column tube

in both indexed and unindexed positions. If

the arm can be easily moved by hand when

locked in an unindexed position the following

adjustment must be made.

1. Move the arm to an unindexed position

and leave the miter lock in the unlocked posi-

tion. (Figure 128)

Fig. 128 -Miter Lock -Unlocked

2. With a 3/16 inch hex "U' wrench find the

1/4-20 hex socket cap screw through the hole

in the rear of the arm cover. To tighten turn

the wrench clockwise approximately 1N turn.

(Figure 129)

Fig. t29 - Location ol Hex Socket Cap Screw

3. lx_ck the miter lock and try again to move

the arm. Readjust if necessary.

4. If it becomes extremely difficult to push

the miter lock into the locked position too

much adjustment has been made. Turn the

wrench counterclockwise one half the

amount of the last adjustment and try again

to lock the arm.

Rip Lock

The rip lock locks the carriage in any position

along the length of the arm. If the carriage

can be easily moved by pushing and pulling

on the yoke handle when the @ lock is in the

locked position an adjustment is required.

1. Hold the rip lock in the unlocked position

and with a 7/16 inch wrench tighten the 1/4-

20 hex lock nut 1/4 turn. (Figure 103)

2. Lx)ck the rip Iock and try again to move the

carriage. Make additional adjustments if

necessary.

3. Place the rip lock in the unlocked position

and move the carriage back and forth from

stop to stop. If the carriage is difficult to

move at any point or you can feel the rip lock

dragging on the track the adjustment is too

tight. Loosen the hex nut one half the

amount of the last adjustment and try again.

Trouble Shooting

i ill

WARNING: To avoid injury, turn

power switch off and remove plug from

power source outlet before trouble

shooting.

Probable Cause What to Do

Motor will not run. Low voltage. Check power line for proper

voltage.

Motor will not run and

fuses blow. Short circuit in line, cord, or

plug.

Inspect line, cord, and plug for

damaged insulation and shorted

wires.

Short circuit in motor or loose

connections. Inspect all terminals in motor

for loose or shorted terminals

or worn insulation wires.

Incorrect fuses in power line. Install correct fuses.

Motor -2

Problem Probable Cause What to Do

Motor fails to develop full

power.

(Power output of motor

decreases rapidly with

decrease in voltage at

motor terminals. For ex-

ample: a reduction of

10% in voltage causes a

reduction of 19% in maxi-

mum power output of

which the motor is

capable, while a reduction

of 20% in voltage causes a

reduction of 36% in maxi-

mum power output.)

Power line overloaded with

lights, appliances, and other

motors.

Reduce the line load.
