WARNING: TO AVOID MISTAKES THAT COULD
RESULT IN SERIOUS, PERMANENT INJURY, DO
NOT CONNECT POWER CORD UNTIL THE FOL-
LOWING STEPS HAVE BEEN SATISFACTORILY
COMPLETED:
1. Assembly and alignment.. (See pages 15-24.)
2.. Examination and operating familiarity with ON-
OFF switch, elevation hand wheel, swivel lock,
bevel lock and rip lock, guard clamp screw,
spreader and anti-kickback device and miter
lock. (See pages 30, 31 & 32.)
3. Review and understanding of all safety instruc-
tions and operating procedures throughout the
manual
Read the following danger labels which appear on
the front of the radial arm saw base assembly, motor
and saw guard:
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY:
WHEN RIPPING
WHEN INSTALLING OR MOVING THE
SAW
1. To avoid injury from unexpected carriage travel,
lock the rip lock handle before moving the saw..
2..To avoid injury from unexpected saw movement:
(a) Bolt the saw to the floor if it tends to slip,
walk, or slide during normal operation.
(b) When table extensions over 24" 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
as appropriate.
3. To avoid injury from unexpected carriage travel
adjust leveling feet so the arm tilts slightly
downward to the rear so that the carriage will not
roll forward due to gravity. Forward drift of the
carriage on an improperly leveled saw could
cause the blade to lunge forward due to un-
expected contact with the workpiece, fence,
table or part of your body
BEFORE EACH USE
Plan your work,
-- To avoid injury from accidental starting, always
remove the plug from the outlet, turn the switch
off and remove the switch key before removing
the guard, changing the cutting tool, changing
the setup or making adjustments
To avoid injury from blade contact, slips, shocks,
thrown pieces, etc, check the saw to make sure
that no parts are missing or broken, bent, or have
failed in any way, or any electrical component
fails to perform properly Shut off power switch,
pull the plug from the outlet and replace damaged,
missing and/or failed parts before resuming
operation
To avoid injury from electrical shock, make sure
your fingers do not contact the terminals when
installing or removing the plug to or from a live
outlet.
Check the fence for proper workpiece support. To
avoid fence breakage which could result in thrown
workpieces and blade contact, do not use fences
made of particle board or other composite
materials -use 3/4" thick lumber long enough to
extend in on epiece from end to end of the saw
table, and tall enough to be at least even with the
top of the workpiece. Replace any fence where
existing slots in the fence have weakened the
fence or can snag the workpiece during ripping
operations. Always check table clamps to make
sure any new fence is held securely (see page 22)_
Choose your cutting tool carefully Many saw
accidents are caused by use of the wrong type
blade, dull, badly set, improperly sharpened cut-
ting tools, gum or resin adhering to the cutting
tools, and by blade misalignment with the saw
fence. Such conditions can cause the material to
stick, jam (stall the saw), throw or "kickback" the
workpiece at the operator
-- To avoid cutting tool failure and thrown shrapnel
(broken pieces of blade), use only blades or other
cutting tools marked for operating speeds 3450
rpm or higher, Never use a cutting toot larger in
diameter than the diameter for which the saw was
designed
--To avoid jamming of the blade, thrown work-
pieces, and damage to the blade collars, never
use a broken, warped, or unbalanced blade. Do
not overtighten arbor nut Use arbor wrenches to
"snug" it securely°
To avoid injury from accidental blade contact by
the workpiece or the operator do not perform
layout, assembly, or setup work on the table

while the cuttingtool is rotating. Therotating
tool could cut and throw anythinghitting the
bladecaus{ngthe saw to unexpectedlycome
forward
Usetherightguard.Toavoidlosingcontrolofthe

noplay existsbetweenthe columnand column
supportorin the carriage and that the arm, yoke,
bevel locks/clamps are tighL
To avoid injury from thrown objects, slips or
jamming of the blade due to pinching of the blade
by shifting boards:
(a) Do not leave a long board unsupported so the
spring of the board causes it to twist or rise
from the table
(b) Check to be sure that pieces will not fall off
the table once they have been cut.
(c) Provide support for the workpiece, based on
its size and the type of operation to be
performed
(d) Never use another person as a substitute fora
table extension, or as an additional support
for a workpiece to assist in feeding, support-
ing, or pulling the workpiece
(e) Never cut workpieces placed side to side or
stacked on top of each other The pieces can
slide on each other.
WEAR YOUR
The operation of any power- tool can result in
foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which
can result in permanent eye damage.. Always wear
safety goggles complying with ANSI Z87.1 (shown
on package) Safety goggles are available at
Sears retail catalog stores Use of goggles or
glasses not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could
result in severe injury from breakage of the eye
protection,
To avoid injury from uncontrollable reaction or
thrown objects, never turn the saw "ON" before
clearing the table or work surface of all objects
(tools, scraps of wood, etc..) except the properly
supported workpiece and related feed or support
devices for the operation planned
WHENEVER THE SAW IS RUNNING
-- Always keep alert. Do not allow familiarity (gained
from frequent use of your saw) to cause a careless
mistake. Always remember that a careless fraction
4
of asecond is sufficient to inflict severe, permanent
injury
if your saw makes an unfamiliar noise or' if it
vibrates excessively, stop the operation immedi-
ately, Do not restart until the source has been
located and the problem corrected
-- 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, turn
the switch off, allow the sawblade to come to a
complete stop, and remove the switch key To
avoid damage to the blade and flange, retighten
the arbor nut normally, not excessively..
-- Never perform any operation freehand injury can
occur from blade contact or' thrown pieces when
the workpiece is torn from the hands.. "Freehand"
means feeding the sawblade into a workpiece or
feeding the workpiece into the sawblade or other
cutting tool without using the fence orsome other
proper device to prevent the workpiece from
twisting and binding on the cutting tool during the
cutting operat[on
To avoid accidental blade contact, avoid awkward
hand positions where a sudden slip causes a hand
to move toward the sawblade or other cutting
tool Do not place fingers or hand on the work-
piece or table that is in the path of the sawblade
To avoid injury from unexpected starting, never
attempt to free a stalled sawblade without first
turning the saw "OFF" and removing the switch
key If the sawblade is statfed or' jammed, shut the
saw "OFF", remove the switch key, remove the
workpiece, check for' looseness in clamps, arm
and carriage, check the sawblade squareness to
the table surface and to the fence, and check for
heel (see page 22).. Adjust as indicated.
-- To avoid injury from falling parts or from falling
into the saw, never climb on or near the saw when
its power is "ON" Never leave the saw area when
power' is "ON", or before the cutting tool has
come to a complete stop.
To avoid unauthorized saw use, remove the switch
key and put the key away before leaving the saw
area
BEFORE STARTING A RIPPING TYPE CUT
To avoid injury from being struck by a thrown
workpiece, position the saw so neither you, a
helper', or a casual observer is forced to stand in
line with the sawbtade or workpiece.
-- Whenever possible, use the "in-rip" position_ (See
page 37_) This provides maximum clearance for
feeding by hand, push stick, or push block as
appropriate.
-- To avoid thrown workpieces or being pulled into
the saw before you can react, push the workpiece

fromthenoseside(oppositethesawdustexhaust
chute)of the guard. Note the warningon the
guard..

pieces.Useapushblockasillustratedon page36
for pieces3/8 to 2 incheswide or, wherever
possible,placethe widersection of the board
betweenthefenceandtheblade.
To avoid kickbacks never feed a workpiece
through the saw with another piece (butting _'_-_
second piece against trailing end of piece being '_ =
cut) even if of the same thickness, c,_ 6O
To keep control of your workpiece, never rip work
shorter than the blade diameter
For rip or rip-type cuts, the trailing end of the
workpiece to which a push stick or push board is
applied must be square (perpendicular to the
fence and table top) so that feed pressure applied
to the workpiece by the push stick or push block
will not cause the workpiece to come away from
the fence or rise from the table and possibly cause
a kickback
Plastic and composition (like particle board)
materials may be cut on your saw. However, since
these are often quite hard and slippery, the anti-
kickback pawls may not stop a kickback To get
best performance, rip with the finished side down
(next to the table) and the roughest side up, and
be especially attentive to follow proper set up and
cutting procedures
WHILE DOING A RIP TYPE OPERATION
-- Never reach around the blade to the outfeed side
to touch the portion of workpiece beyond the
blade until the whole workpiece has been pushed
beyond and ctear of the blade Your touch could
cause a kickback which could strike someone or
pull your hand into the rear (outfeed side) of the
blade before you can let go or react
-- 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 or wide workpieces that extend beyond
the length or width of the saw table to prevent
workpiece from being thrown as it falls from the
table,,
Never apply the feed force to the section of the
workpiece that will become the cutoff (free)
piece. Feed force when ripping must always be
applied between the sawblade and the fence so
that the slot cut by the blade (kerf) will not be
pinched shut on the blade causing a kickback.
Never touch the piece that has been cut off until
the blade has come to a complete stop
--Keep pushing the section of the workpiece
between the blade and the fence until the piece
has been pushed completely past the blade, so
the blade wilt not grab the piece and throw it back
at the operator.
BEFORE DOING A CROSSCUT TYPE CUT
--To avoid blade contact, do not perform any
operation that requires the cutting tool to extend
beyond the edges of the table used for supporting
the workpiece
To maximize protection from accidental blade
contact and reduce risk of jamming objects into
the guard, place guard in a horizontal position
and adjust anti-kickback pawls to just clear the
top of the fence or the workpiece, whichever is
higher The anti-kickback pawl assembly will
5

provide additional guarding from contact with the
front of the blade.
To prevent the cutting tool from grabbing the
table or workpiece and being propelled toward
you, never lower a revolving cutting tool into the
table or a workpiece without first locking the rip
lock handle and clamping the workpiece in place.
Release the handle only after having firmly
grasped the carriage handle.
To avoid blade contact or injury from a thrown cut
off piece, never use a length stop on the cut off
end or edge of the workpiece. Never hang onto or'
touch the cut off piece of the workpiece while the
power is "ON" and/or the sawblade is rotating To
prevent pinching that could cause the piece to be
thrown, the cut off piece must never be confined,
pushed, or grabbed while the blade is spinning.
INSPECT YOUR WORKPIECE
To avoid injury from thrown objects, slips or
jamming of the blade, make sure the workpiece
will fit the supports (fence, table, fixtures or jigs)
so it will not twist, rock or otherwise bind on the
cutting tool. Make sure there is no sawdust or
other foreign material between the workpiece and
its support.
WHILE DOING A CROSSCUT TYPE CUT
Always start with the carriage in the full rear
position behind the fence before turning the saw
On,
Never push the carriage and blade backwards
into the work to do a crosscutting type operation..
The cutting tool can throw the work over the
fence, striking someone or causing you to fall into
the blade.
Always return the carriage to the full rearward
position behind the fence at the completion of
each crosscut type operation Never remove your'
hand from the yoke handle unless the carriage is
in this position. Otherwise, the cutting tool may
climb up on the workpiece and be propelled
toward you.
BEFORE USING ACCESSORIES
To avoid injury from unanticipated hazards, use
only recommended accessories as listed on page
50°
The use of grinding wheels, abrasive or cut off
wheels, or wire wheels, can be dangerous and are
not recommended_ Such devices can break ex-
plosively and throw shrapnel, causing severe
injury
The sawblade, dado, or other cutting tool must be
removed from the saw arbor before using the
accessory shaft, Never operate the saw with
cutting tools (including sanding accessories or
buffing) installed on both ends of the saw arbor to
avoid being pulled into moving parts by hair,
threads, clothing, etc, Make sure the unused
arbor is always covered by aguard, the arm, or the
screw cap
Using a drill chuck, To avoid injury from sudden
bending or breaking of a drill bit, do not install or
use twist drills tonger than 7" in iength or extend-
ing more than 6" beyond the chuck jaws. Do not
instatl or use any reduced shank drill except the
opade type (1" diameter' or smaller).. Use for
drilling wood or plastic only - bit speed cannot be
properly adjusted for other materiafs. Do not use
twist drills larger than 1/2" in diameter

MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
CAUTION: TO AVOID MOTOR DAMAGE THIS
MOTOR SHOULD BE BLOWN OUT OR VACUUMED
FREQUENTLY TO PREVENT SAWDUST BUILD-
UP WHICH WILL INTERFERE WITH NORMAL
MOTOR VENTILATION.
1 This tool should be connected to a t20V, 15 Amp
branch circuit with a 15 Amp time delay fuse or'
circuit breaker. Failure to use the proper size
fuse can result in damage to the motor.
2. If the motor fails to start, turn the power switch to
the "OFF" position immediately. 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?'
3. If the motor should suddenly stall while cutting
wood, the power switch should be turned off, the
toot unplugged and the blade freed from the
wood The motor' may now be restarted and the
cut finished.
4. Frequent "blowing" of fuses or tripping of circuit
breakers may result if:
(a) MOTOR IS OVERLOADED - Overloading can
occur-if you feed too rapidly or' if saw is
misaligned so that the blade heels (pg_ 18).
(b) 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 consuFting a qualified electrician.
(c) LOW VOLTAGE - Although the motor is
designed for operation on the voltage and
frequency specified on motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on vol-
tages 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
5 Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or
incorrect connections, overloading, reduced
input voltage (such as small size wire in the
supply circuit) or to overly long supply circuit
wire Always check the connections, the load
and the supply circuit whenever motor fails to
perform satisfactorily Check wire sizes and
length with the Wire Size Chart below
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 (AWG)
extension cord Use only 3 wire extension cords
which have 3 prong grounding type plugs and 3-pole
receptacles which accept the tools plug
CAUTION: For circuits that are farther away from
electrical service box, the wire size must be increased
proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage to
the saw motor°

ALIIGNMENT PROCEDURE
IMPORTANT: In order to obtain maximum cutting
accuracy and safety, 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 accuracy
of the preceeding adjustment.
Be sure to align the saw in the exact sequence
described to insure proper alignment and cutting
accuracy.
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
Adjusting Column Tube in Column Support
1• Elevate and then lower the arm.
(a) If the column binds and elevation is difficult,
loosen the four (4) bolts, with 9/16 socket and
extention, located through the holes in the
rear column support cover until movement is
smooth but firm.
(b) If column moves front to rear within the
column support, tighten the four (4) bolts,
with a 9/16 socket and extension, located
through holes in rear column support cover
until movement disappears. Elevation should
be smooth and firm, Recheck adjustments,
repeat steps (a) and (b) if necessary.
2.. Locate the four (4) plastic hole caps in loose
parts bag #532_ After all adjustments are made to
the column support insert the plastic caps in all
four holes in rear column support cover.
STEP TWO
NOTE: The following adjustment, performed proper-
ly, will result in the work table being parallel to the
arm This helps insure the blade will cut the same
depth along the entire crosscut travel.

STEP THREE
Squaring Crosscut Travel
NOTE: This adjustment helps ensure the blade
accurately travels square to the rip fence,
1, Index arm at 0°miter and lock,,
2 Install saw blade as shown.. Motor shaft has left
handed threads - turn nut counterclockwise to
tighten_
CAUTION: Do not overtighten arbor nut. Use arbor
wrench to "snug" nut in place. Overtightening could
distort the blade collars and cause blade to wobble.
3. Lower arm until saw blade just clears the front
table. Be sure the miter lock handle and the bevel
lock handle are locked.

4.. Place a framing square on the table as shown and
position the blade and square until the leg of the
square just contacts a tooth of the blade. Mark
this tooth with a pencil,
NOTE: The framing (or combination) square must
be "true" - see chart of "Assembly and Alignment"
section on page 9 for checking method.
5, When the carriage is moved back and forth on
the arm, the marked tooth should just touch the
square at all points.. If marked tooth moves into
square or away from square the following adjust-
ments are required,
(a) Loosen the four (4) 1/4-20 socket set screws
on both sides of the front column support (2
on each side) with a 1/8" Hex "L" wrench as
illustrated on next page
(b) Move the arm in the proper direction to make
marked tooth follow edge of square when the
saw blade is moved along arm in a "crosscut"
manner'.

(d) Recheck blade travel° Adjust arm position as
needed by readjusting upper screws only,
(e) Once arm position is good, tighten lower 1/4-
20 socket set screws. Do not overtighten.
Check elevating handwheel for ease of rota-
tion., If rotating handwhee! is difficult, re-
adjust socket set screw tighteness as needed.
NOTE: The life of your saw table will be lengthened
considerably if you will cover the front table with a
fitted piece of 1/4 inch plywood° This should be
tacked in place for easy replacemenL Use of such a
cover will allow you to do all cutting into the cover,
rather than your table top,. This will help prevent
dulling of the saw blade and striking table mounting
hardware., Place tacks out of the path of the saw
blade°

DIGITAL READOUT DISPLAY
Digital Readout Display
The liquid crystal display (LCD) on this saw gives
the user the ability to accurately position the saw
blade and make precision adjustments to the blade
position. The four functions displayed on the saw
are:
Bevel angle - displays the bevel angle at which the
blade has been set.. Zero is normally set with the
blade in the vertical..
Elevation - displays the vertical height of the blade
above the table top. Zero is normally set with the tips
of the blade teeth touching the table top
Miter angle - displays the miter angle at which the
blade has been set. Zero is normally set with the
blade in the cross-cut position square to the rip
fence.
Function Keys
The six keys located to the right of the display screen
are the function keys. They are used to select the
indicator that is to be displayed or adjusted to set the
indicator value to zero, or to turn the display "On" or
"Off"
Rip position - displays the distance the blade is from
the rip fence when the unit is in the in-rip or out-rip
position. Zero is normally set with the blade contact-
ing the front face of the rip fence.
Adigital readout display shows the present position
of the blade in decimals._ If you need to convert these
numbers to fraction vatues, there is a conversion
chart provided on page 28 of this manual for your
reference.
The display also shows which function is being
displayed, either BEV, ELE, MIT, RIP, or O-RIP A
minus sign will display when the numeric value is
negative (less than the "Zero" set position) in bevel,
elevation or miter..
NOTE: In order to extend the battery life, the LC

Using the Electronic Indicator System
1. Setting the indicator reference points.
In order to establish the starting location point of
the blade, it is necessary to set the indicator
references at zero. Normally, these zero refer-
ences are the front of the fence, the top of the
table, and with the face of the blade square to
both of these surfaces However, many instances
wilt require selection of the reference points to fit
the woodworking operations to be performed,
Place the blade or cutting toot in the exact
position and angle that you have selected as the
zero reference position
Turn the display "On" by pressing _ key.
Press the _ angle function key. Press
to set the zero reference angle for' the
bevel readout
This display should read: _ D}
Press the _ key Press _ to set the
zero reference angle for the miter readout

position and measure 10 inches from rip fence's
front side,.
NOTE: The saw will be very close to this point, The
radial arm rear travel stop will not allow the blade
any closer to fence than approximately 10 inches. To
accurately set the reference, measure with tape
measure or ruler to determine exactly 10 inches from
fence to the blade
When blade is 10 inches from fence, push
key once to zero and then a second time to set

counterclockwise rotation lowers iL One
complete turn of the handle will raise or lower
the saw blade 1/16 inch.
c_ Handle can be folded in when not in use.
2. 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..
The miter lock handle locks, unlocks and
indexes the arm for left and right miter cuts.
NOTE: For safety reasons stops have been provided
to prevent 360 °rotation of the radial arm
b..The radial arm has positive index positions at
0°and 45° left arid right._The arm is rotated by
pulling the miter lock handle from left to right
arid releasing the index pin Move the arm to
the desired miter angle and push the miter
lock handle back to the lock position.
3. Yoke Swivel (Ripping)
a Swivel lock handle is to lock, unlock and index
the yoke swivel adjustmenL
b, The yoke swivel index pin automatically
indexes the yoke at 90° position Pull the
swivel lock handle forward to unlock the yoke,
continue to pull this handle until the index pin
is released.
C_ The swivel lock handle locks the yoke to the
carriage in any position. Pull the handle for-
ward to release the yoke; push the handle
rearward to secure the yoke.
4. Rip Position Lock
a The rip lock handle is pushed rearward to lock
the carriage on the radial arm and pulled
forward to release it
b When performing crosscutting operations, the
rip lock handle must be released so the carriage
is free to travel along the arm The lock handle
should be tightened until the operator' is ready
to grasp the yoke handle and make a cut

8. Blade Guard and Anti-Kickback/Spreader
Assembly-Positioning for Ripping.
WARNING: NEVER POSITION THE GUARD OR
ANTI-KICKBACK/SPREADER ASSEMBLY WITH
THE SAW RUNNING, NEVER POSITION THE ANTI-
KICKBACK/SPREADER ASSEMBLY BY GRASPING
THE PAWLS OR SPREADER. TO MAINTAIN
SPREADER ALIGNMENT, USE THE TAB LOCATED
ON THE ANTI-KICKBACK BAR.
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
This adjustment is necessary to:
1) Protect the operator from accidenta!ly con-
tacting the sawbtade from the "infeed"
direction
b_
2) Prevent the workpiece from being lifted
from the table by the sawblade thus mini-
mizing lifting or fluttering (particularly with
thin and/or light workpieces).
3) Minimize sawdust from being thrown toward
the operator
The anti-kickback and spreader assembly is
adjustable to accommodate the thickness of
the board being ripped.
For ripping the anti-kickback and spreader
assembly is positioned by loosening the wing
screw and, with the tab provided, positioning
the anti-kickback and spreader assembly until
the pawls assume approximately the position
shown Tighten the wing screw
Make sure by trial - without saw running -
before starting the cut that the anti-kickback
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 direction of
feed) Readjust pawls if they do not stop the
kickback motion by biting into the workpiece.
If the leading end of the workpiece does not
feed smoothly under the pawls, the spreader
may be set too deeply. Loosen the wing screw,
raise the spreader slightly, retighten the screw,
recheck workpiece in-feed and kickback pawl
function,
These adjustments when properly made will:
1) Reduce possibility of kickbacks by prevent-
ing the kerf from closing on the sawblade
2) Prevent "wrong-way feed'L "Wrong-way
feed" is feeding the workpiece - when the
sawblade is in a rip position -into the out
feed side of the cutting toot (sawbtade,
dado, molding head, etc ), the side contain-
ing the anti-kickback pawls/spreader 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) possibly pulling
your hand with it before you can react. See
Danger label on outfeed side of the guard
just below the dust elbow.
"Wrong-way feed" differs from kickback". A
"kickback" is generated by the sides (one or
both) of the teeth, because of binding
between the fence (heel), pinching of the
sides of the sawblade (failure to use
spreader), a dull blade, and/or inadequate
set of teeth of sawblade..
Act as a partial guard regarding accidental
contact with the sawblade at the outfeed
side when ripping..
For crosscutting the anti-kickback and spreader
assembly is positioned by loosening wing screw
With the tab provided position the anti-kickback
spreaders assembly until the pawls just clear the
workpiece or fence which ever is higher

basic saw operation
WARNING: TO AVOID MISTAKES THAT COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS PERMANENT INJURY, OBSERVE
ALL THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS IN ADDI-
TION TO THOSE ON PAGES 2-6.
Basic saw operations are summarized in six cate-
gories, explained and illustrated in the following
paragraphs
NOTE: Refer to paragraphs under "Location and
Function of Controls" for illustrations and descrip-
tion of controls. Page 29,,
CUTTING A KERF IN THE WORK TABLE
AND FENCE
NOTE: The life of your saw table will be lengthened
considerably if you will cover the front table with a
fitted piece of 1/4 inch plywood. This should be
tacked in place for easy replacement Use of such a
cover will allow you to do all cutting into the cover,
rather than your table top. This will help prevent
dulling of the saw blade and striking table mounting
hardware Place tacks out of the path of the sawblade
1. Elevate arm so that the blade clears the top of the
fence and then push the motor to its most
rearward position
2, Lower the arm so that the blade just clears the
rear table., Note: The rear table should be at the
same level as the front table (see "Attaching and
Leveling Table Mounting Support Channels",
page 18)..If front table cover is used, set blade so
that it just clears the front table board cover,.
3. Lock the rip lock handle and check to make sure
carriage is locked in place. Plug saw into a
grounded outlet, (See section titled, "Electrical
Connections", page 7.)
4.. insert the yellow key into switch and, while
holding the yoke handle, turn the switch on.
5. With the motor on, turn the elevation handle
counterclockwise to lower the sawblade to where
it just cuts into the table approximately 1/32 to
1/16 inch deep.. While holding the yoke handle
and with motor still on, unlock the rip lock handle
and then pull the motor forward and out to the
front stop on the arm. This will allow the blade to
cut through the fence and to cur a shallow kerf in
the table t/32 to 1/16 inch deep to provide for the
blade cutting completely through the workpiece.
NOTE: A kerf will have to be cut into the table prior to
making any thru cutting operation using this pro-
cedure

REQUIREMENTS FOR CROSSCUTTING
TYPE OPERATIONS
(Operations 1 through 4)
Always position the workpiece firmly against rip
fence (guide) and lay it flat on work table surface..
NOTE: To maintain table strength, workpiece
stability, control forward motor of carriage, and
avoid accidents, always:
1 Use only blades that are sharp, correctly set and
undamaged,
33

2. Make sure the arbor nut is snug.
3. Clamp the guard in a horizontal position.
4. Lock the swivel lock handle Make sure it is firmly
locked. (See page 30)
5_ Hold work firmly against table and fence. To
avoid tipping or throwing of workpieces 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 work-
piece 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 capa-
cities of your saw. Do not confine the cutoff piece
with your hand, length stop or any other item..
The blade could throw it, causing an accident.
6.. Keep hands well away from saw blade. Do not
place hands where sudden blade or workpiece
movement could cause hand to slip into the path
of the blade, Always keep the hand holding the
workpiece visible at all times.
7_ Lock the bevel lock handte., Make sure it is firrnly
locked. (See page 31..)
8_ Adjust the elevation so blade will cut into the
table cover- or table not more than 1/32 inch
9. To adjust the anti-kickback and spreader assem-
bly so the pawls just ctear the workpiece and the
fence (See page 32_)
10.. Pull saw forward just enough to cut the lumber in
two, and then return the saw to its ful! rear
position° It is dangerous to pull blade too far out
beyond the piece being cut. When it is returned it
can pick up the board and throw it over the fence.
OPERATION NO. 1 - CROSSCUT
Crosscutting is the process of sawing across the
width of 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: YOU WILL NOTICE THAT WHEN PULL-
ING THE SAW BLADE TOWARD YOU DURING
CROSSCUTTING THE BLADE TENDS TO FEED
ITSELF THROUGH THE WORKPIECE. THIS IS
DUE TO THE ROTATION OF THE BLADE, TO
CONTROL THIS YOU SHOULD DEVELOP THE
HABIT HOLDING YOUR RIGHT FOREARM IN LINE
WITH THE ARM OF THE SAW THROUGHOUT THE
CUT. ALSO MAKE SURE THE CARRIAGE BEAR-
INGS ARE ADJUSTED PROPERLY SO CARRIAGE
DOESN'T TRAVEL TOO FREELY,
OPERATION NO. 2 - MITER CROSSCUT
Miter crosscutting is the process of sawing across
the width of a workpiece 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

angle of cut, swivel and bevel settings at 0° and
locked. The workpiece being cut is positioned and
held firmly against the fence and the carriage pulled
forward along the radial arm just far enough to
complete the cut Carriage should then be returned
to the full rear position and locked,. Allow the saw
blade to come to a stop before removing the work-
piece from the saw table
OPERATION NO. 3 - BEVEL CROSSCUT
Bevel crosscutting is the process of sawing at 90°
(square) across the width of a workpiece with the
saw blade set to an angle other than 90° to the table,
The radial arm and yoke are indexed at 0° and
locked securely in place,, The bevel is set to the
desired angle of cut and locked. The workpiece
being cut is positioned and held firmly against the
fence and the carriage is pulled forward along the
radial arm just far enough to complete the cut. The
carriage should then be returned to the ful! rear
position and locked, Allow the saw blade to come to
a stop before removing the workpieces from the saw
table
OPERATION NO. 4 -
COMPOUND CROSSCUT
Compound crosscut is the combination of miter and
bevel crosscut The radial arm and the angle of the
blade are set to produce the desired cut- the yoke is
indexed at 0° and locked The workpiece is posi-
tioned and held firmly against the fence and the
carriage is pulled forward along the radial arm just
far enough to complete the cut The carriage should
then be returned to the full rear position and locked.
Allow the blade to come to a stop before removing
the workpieces from the saw table,
REQUIREMENT WHEN RIPPING
(Operations 5 and 6)
WARNING: TO AVOID MISTAKES THAT COULD
CAUSE SERIOUS PERMANENT INJURY, OBSERVE
ALL THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS IN ADDI_
TION TO THOSE ON PAGES 2-6.
1 Make sure that the blade is sharp, correctly set
and undamaged
2, Lock the rip lock handle, (See page 3&)
3, Lock the radial arm at the 0° position,,
4, Make sure the workpiece is kept in firm contact
with the fence and the table., The edge of the
35

board against the fence must be straight and will
not catch on kerfs in the fence - for workpieces
thicker than the fence is high, install a higher
fence (at least the thickness of the workpiece).
NEVER RIP"FREEHAND" (without aid offence)
5 Properly set the anti-kickback and spreader
assernbly, Observe INSTRUCTIONS in para-
graph "Positioning guard and anti-kickback and
spreader assembly for ripping" under "Location
and Function of Controls" page 32.
6 Never rip pieces shorter than the diameter-of the
blade
7. When ripping narrow stock (tess than 6 inches
but more than 2 inches between the guard and
the fence (guide) use a "PUSH STICK" (as
shown) so the workpiece is clear of the blade
before your hand reaches the guard The end of
the workpiece to which the push stick or push
block (see below) is applied must be square to
the fence and table.
8. When ripping stock 3/8" to 2" or less between the
guard and fence (guide) use an auxiliary fence
and push block. Make these work helpers to the

The push block should feed the stock being
ripped until the stock is clear of the rear of the
blade, and then pulled back with use of the grip.
When ripping narrower than 3/8 inch position the
saw blade to rernove the narrow strip from edge
of workpiece furthest from the fence. (See out
ripping section below) Follow procedures as
above based on distance from blade to fence.
Keep HANDS away from the saw blade
Saw blade must be parallel to fence to minimize
possibility of kickbacks.

OPERATION NO. 5-
OUT-RIPPING AND IN-RIPPING
1. Ripping is the process of sawing the workpiece
along its length by feeding it into the sawblade
when using the fence as a guide and as a
positioning device to obtain the desired width of
cut. The sawblade is parallel to fence
2. 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 or kickback. Provide a straight edge, to
avoid kickback or binding, even if it means
temporarily nailing an auxiliary straight edge
board to the workpiece being ripped
WARNING: IF THE WORKPIECE IS WARPED, DO
NOT ATTEMPT TO MAKE A CUT IF THE WORK-
PIECE WOBBLES OR ROTATES ON THE TABLE,
IT COULD BIND AND KICKBACK.
3. Always use the saw guard and make sure the
spreader is correctly aligned with the kerf and
the anti-kickback pawls are properly adjusted..
Wood cut with the grain tends to spring the kerr
closed and bind the blade and cause a kickback
or slip of your hand, Always adjust the spreader
to ride in the kerf and prevent the kerr from
closing
4 Stand a little to one side of the blade to be clear of
workpiece in case of kickback.
5. Always push the workpiece past the blade so it is
clear of the blade This procedure will help avoid
kickbacks. DO NOT TOUCH the cutoff piece
until the power is off and the blade has stopped
spinning
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 counterclock-
wise. After positioning the guard and anti-kickback
mechanism the workpiece is fed from the right-hand
side of the saw..

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 outripping (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 different dado blades
are contained in Owner's Manual furnished with the
dado.
The saw arbor is designed for a dado up to 13/16
inches wide. Using 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
For best results and to avoid excessive load on the
motor never cut a 13/16 of an inch wide dado deeper
than 3/8 of an inch in one pass,
When installing the dado on the arbor, always install
the inside "loose collar" first to ensure good arbor
nut engagement Do not install the outside blade
collar Make sure the arbor nut is snug, install the
arbor nut directly against the outside of the dado
MOLDING
instructions for operating the molding head are
contained in an Owner's Manual furnished with the
molding head.
EDGING
Use of the dado or molding head in the horizontal
position (parallel to table) requires the proper acces-
sory guard be used (See recommended accessories
page 50).
Use of the dado or molding head in the horizontal
position requires an auxiliary fence (page 39), or
that the radial arm be positioned as follows:
1 Miter the arm to the left approximately 30°
2, Swivel the motor until bottom of motor is parallel
to and facing the rip fence and operating instruc-
tions label is visible
3, Follow all steps outlined on motor label

For top side use of the dado (rabbeting) or molding
head in the in-rip position locate the desired position
on the area and lock the rip lock handle. Lower the
arm into the fence very slowly, remove only as much
material from the fence as is necessary.. This will
provide maximum support for the workplace.

ADJUSTING BEVEL LOCK LEVER
The purpose of this lever is to lock the motor at any
bevel angle. An adjustment is required if the motor
can be easily moved by hand when lever is locked or
bevel lock lever offers minimal resistance when
moving lever to the locked position. To make this
adjustment:
1. Remove motor support cover
2. Position motor at approximately 30°bevel angle
and lock bevel lock lever.
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 lever 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 index pin seats properly., 39

5,. Adjustment is complete when both locking and
indexing functions are working properly Replace
motor support cover..
ADJUSTING SWIVEL LOCK HANDLE
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 To make this adjustment:
(NOTE: On electronic models the rip encoder must
be removed first with Phillips screwdriver'.)
1. With a 1/2 wrench or socket remove six (6) 5/16-
18 hex head tapping screws and separate track
from arm as illustrated.
2,,Slide yoke assembly from track, Keep carriage in
line with track until rip lock mechanism clears
end of track
3. With a 15/16 wrench or socket tighten the 5/8-11
hex nut until maximum effort is required to place
yoke lock handle in the locked position,.
4. Unlock yoke lock handle and swivel yoke to an
unindexed position Return yoke to an indexed
position. If the yoke does not index securely the
adjustment is too tight Loosen 5/8-11 hex nut
until swivel index pin seats properly
5 Adjustment is complete when both locking and
indexing functions are working properly_
6 Slide carriage onto track starting with rip lock
mechanism.. Keep carriage in line with track until
all of the bearings are on the track,, Be careful not
to catch the wiper's on the edge of the track
7., Re-attach track to arm using six (6) 5/16-18 hex
head tapping screws
(On electronic units the rip encoder must be re-
attached at this time.)
ADJUSTING ARM TO COLUMN
With the miter lock handle unlocked and in the
unindexed position the arm should fit snugly to the
column tube and not allow any vertical movement If
you can move the end of the arm up and down and
adjustment is needed
1, With a #2 phillips screwdriver remove two screws
and the tear arm cover as illustrated,
2, With a 9/16 inch wrench or socket tighten evenly
the top two 3/8-16 hex head tapping screws. The
bottom two screws should also be tightened
evenJy but not as tight as the top screws,
3. This adjustment is correct when the arm moves
firmly without vertical movement
4, Re-insta!l the rear arm cover,.

ADJUSTING CARRIAGE BEARINGS
The carriage should roll freely but with some resist-
ance for the entire length of travel To test for
bearing looseness, perform the following steps
1 Place yoke in either the in-rip or out-rip position.
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 required
To adjust the carriage bearings perform the following
steps.
1, Clean and lubricate the bearing races and the
bead on which they ride prior to adjustment,
2, With a 9/16 inch wrench and a 1/2 inch wrench
loosen the 5/16-18 hex nuts just enough to
permit the eccentric screw to turn.
3 Rotate the eccentric screws a partial turn (left or
right) as required to take up looseness., Both
screws should be adjusted an equal amount to
maintain blade squareness table in the rip
positions.
4. Hold the head of the eccentric screws in their
new position and retighten the nuts
5,, Repeat the test procedure described above and
re-adjust if necessary NOTE: Over tightening
the bearings will cause difficult operation and
severely reduce the life of the track and bearings..
MITER LOCK ADJUSTMENT
The miter lock handle 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 handle in the unlocked position

HA VE YOU FOLLOWED 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 prac-
tices in order to expect the best results
1. Edge of workpiece which is placed against fence
must be as straight as the tong side of your
framing square..
2 Workpiece must be as flat as the front table board
on your saw..
3. There must be no sawdust or other wood chips
between the fence and the front table board
4. There must be no sawdust or other wood chips
underneath workpiece or between workpiece
and fence.
5. Workpiece must be held tightly against fence
and down against the table ... this is especially
important when making angle cuts because the
workpiece has a tendency to move
6. Always use the correct sawblade for the job ..
Always keep it sharp..
7 When making a four sided frame:
a. The two side pieces must be exactly the same
length,
b The top and bottom pieces must be exactly the
same length..
c. Always place the same edge of the workpiece
against the fence turn the workpiece end
for end for the successive cuts and mark a
pencil lineon the table for gauging the required
length
Deviation from any of the above practices will
have an effect on the accuracy of the cuts that
you make.
WARNING: REMOVE POWER CORD FROM POWER
SOURCE BEFORE TROUBLE SHOOTING°
NOTE: Changing one adjustment will effect another,
so it is best to perform all of the alignment procedures
when correcting any one problem.

maintenance and Rubrication
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN
POWER 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, 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
Make sure the teeth of the ANTIKtCKBACK pawls
(key #9 on p. 62) 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 pawls and spreader to antikickback
bar_Check spreader for proper alignment and correct
if necessary (Follow procedure on page 24)
CLEANING
Periodically remove any heavy build-up of sawdust
that mau 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 tracking surfaces_ If packed sawdust
and grease accumulate repeatedly on carriage bear-
ings and track inspect the wipers (key #4 p,, 58) for
wear and replace if necessary. (For access to wipers
see "Swivel lock adjustment" p 40.)
CAUTION: To avoid motor damage the motor should
be blown out or vacuumed frequently to prevent
sawdust build-up which wilt interfere with normal
motor ventilatiom
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 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 index
pin., Bevel saw to 45° and bevel index pin can be
easily accessed behind the yoke as illustrated.
--q
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 access
to these points, Be careful not to get lubricant on the
locking rings as this will adversely affect the miter
locking function.
Lubricate the cam surfaces of the rip lock assembly
LUBRICATION
Your saw is precision built and should be kept
properly lubricated Before describing the various
points which may periodically require lubrication, 1T
IS MORE fMPQRTANT TO FIRST MENTION THE
POINTS WHICH SHOULD NOT BE LUBRICATED
NO LUBRICATION REQUIRED
Do not lubricate the carriage ball bearings or motor
bearings as these are sealed ball bearings and
require no added lubrication Do not lubricate
between the miter locking rings and the column tube
(keys #5 & 9, p, 54),

'eLower Retractable Guard
(For 90°Crosscut Only) ..................... 9-29009
The above recommended accessories are current
and were available at the time this manual was
printed
*NOTE:This lower retractable-guard isdesigned to provide
additional protection to the operator in an axial
direction to the sawblade (perpendicular to the
plane of the sawblade),
(a) When NOT in the cut (guards in full down
position (touching the table) and carriage in fult
rear position behind fence):
(b) When saw is set up to perform 90 °crosscut
operations (sawblade 90° to table surface and
arm in 90°crosscut position),
The lower retractable guard wilt NOT provide protec-
tion to the operator, either crosscutting or ripping:
(a) Axially when in the cut, because the inner and
outer guards ride on top of the fence or workpiece
during the cutting operation, exposing the teeth
of the sawbtade;
(b) Radially (in a direction in line with the cutting
teeth);
(c) Obliquely (at an angle to the guard and saw-
blade), between the axial and radial directions
Power Tool Know How Handbook ......... See Catalog
eMeets OSHA Requirements as of 8-73
Potential risks of injury may be introduced if the
lower retractable guard is used for other- than 90 °
crosscut operations, including:
(a) Becoming caught or jammed in prior kerfs in the
fence or table;
(b) Giving the operator a false sense of security
when performing miter, bevel, and rip cuts;
(c) Jamming when setting-up, and while operating,
for bevel and compound miter cuts
(d) Jamming for certain in-rip cuts
The following warning appears on the Lower Outer
Guard:
WARNING:
TO AVOID INJURY
SHUT OFF POWER
BEFORE CLEARING A
,JAMMED LOWER GUARD
