additional safety instructions for radial saws
CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cord before
removing the guard, changing the cutting tool, changing the
set-up or making adjustments. Shut off motor before
performing layout work on the saw table.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT POWER CORD UNTIL
THE FOLLOWING STEPS HAVE BEEN
SATISFACTORI LY COMPLETED:
I. Assembly and alignment.
II. Examination and operating familiarity with ON-OFF
switch, elevation control, yoke index and lock, bevel
index and lock, carriage lock, guard clamp screw,
spreader and anti-kickback device, and miter index and
lock.
III. Review and understanding of all Safety Instructions and
Operating Procedures thru-out manual.
INSTALLATION
1. Set carriage lock before moving the saw.
2. Bolt the saw to the floor if it tends to slip, walk, or
slide during normal operation.
3. Mount the saw so the table
-- is approximately 39" above the floor;
- slopes slightly downward to the rear so the carriage
will not roll forward due to gravity.
MINIMIZE ACCIDENT POTENTIAL
Most accidents are caused by FAILURE TO FOLLOW
setup and operating instructions:
(A) GENERAL
-Avoid awkward hand positions, where a sudden slip
could cause a hand to move into a sawblade or other
cutting tool. Never reach in back of or around the
cutting tool with either hand to hold down the
workpiece, or for any other reason; DO NOT place
fingers or hands in the path of the sawblade.
-Never saw, dado, mold, or rabbet unless the proper
guard is installed and set up as instructed.
-NOTE THE FOLLOWING DANGER LABELS
WHICH APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF THE YOKE
AND GUARD:

S. USE '*PUSH.STICK*' WHEN RIPPING SHORT OR TOOL FRON
NARROW WOF_K" IS END
-Always maintain control of the workpiece - DO
NOT "let go" the workpiece until the cutting tool
has come to a stop.
-If any part of this radial saw is missing or should
break, bend or fail in any way, or any electrical
component fail to perform properly, shut off power
switch, remove cord from power supply and replace
damaged, missing and/or failed parts before resuming
operation.
- IF YOUR SAW MAKES AN UNFAMILIAR NOISE
OR IF IT VIBRATES EXCESSIVELY CEASE
OPERATING IMMEDIATELY UNTIL THE
SOURCE HAS BEEN LOCATED AND THE
PROBLEM CORRECTED.
-WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY
(GAINED FROM FREQUENT USE OF YOUR
SAW) TO BECOME COMMONPLACE. ALWAYS
REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS FRACTION OF
A SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE
INJURY.
-Before starting work, verify that no play exists
between the column & column support, or in the
carriage, and that arm, yoke, and bevel locks/clamps
are tight.
-A large proportion of saw accidents is caused by use
of the wrong type blade, dull, badly set, improperly
sharpened cutting tools, by gum or resin adhering to
cutting tools, and by sawbtade misalignment with the
fence. Such conditions can cause the material to
stick, jam (stall the saw) or "KICKBACK". A
"KICKBACK" occurs when a part or all of the
workpiece is thrown back violently toward the
operator. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A
STALLED SAW BLADE WITHOUT FIRST
TURNING THE SAW "OFF". If the sawblade is
stalled or jammed, shut saw "OFF", remove
workpiece, and check sawblade squareness to table
surface and to the fence, and check for heel. Adjust
as indicated.
-CAUTION: DO NOT cycle the motor switch "ON"
and "OFF" rapidly, as this might cause the sawblade
to loosen. In the event this should ever occur, allow
the saw blade to come to a complete stop and
re-tighten the arbor nut normally, not excessively.
-Do not leave a long board (or other workpiece)
unsupported so the spring of the board causes it to
shift on the table. Provide proper support for the
workpiece, based on its size and the type of
operation to be performed. Hold the work firmly
against the fence and down against the table surface.
--Never use a length stop on the free end of the
workpiece when crosscutting. Never hang onto or
touch the free end of workpiece when crosscutting,
or a free piece that is cut off when ripping while
power is "ON" and/or the saw blade is rotating. In
short, the cut-off piece in any "thru-sawing" (cutting
completely thru the workpiece) operation must never
be confined - it must be allowed to move laterally.
-- Make sure your fingers do not contact the terminals
when installing or removing the plug to or from a live
power source.
- Never climb on the saw, or climb near the saw when
power in "ON". Never leave the saw with power
"ON", or before the cutting tool has come to a
complete stop. Lock the motor switch and put away
the key when leaving the saw.
--Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked
for an operating speed lower than 3450 RPM. Never
use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the
diameter for which the saw was designed. For
greatest safety and efficiency when ripping, use the
-maximum diameter blade for which the saw is
designed, since under these conditions the spreader is
nearest the blade.
--Never turn your saw "ON" before clearing the table
or work surface of all objects (tools, scraps of wood,
etc.) except the workpiece and related feed or
support devices for the operation planned.
-Never perform any operation "FREE HAND". This
term means feeding the sawblade into the workpiece
(crosscutting) or feeding the sawblade or other
cutting tool (ripping) without using the fence to
additional safety instructions for radial saws
support or guide the workpiece, to prevent rotating
or twisting of the workpiece during the operation.
Never "RIP" in the crosscut position. Never make a
miter cut with the arm in the 90 ° crosscut position.
-- Never lower a revolving cutting tool into the table or
a workpiece without first locking the Carriage Lock
Knob. Release the knob only after grasping the Yoke
Handle. Otherwise the cutting tool may grab the
workpiece and be propelled toward you.
-The sawblade, dado, or other cutting tool must be
removed from the saw arbor before using the
accessory shaft (rear end of the saw motor). NEVER
operate the saw with cutting tools (including sanding
accessories) installed on both ends of the saw arbor.
(B) RIPPING
1. Feed force when ripping must always be applied
BETWEEN THE SAW BLADE AND THE FENCE.
. . use a "PUSH STICK" for narrow or short work.
2. Whenever possible, use the in-rip position - this
provides minimum obstruction for feeding by hand
or push stick as appropriate.
3. Do not release the workpiece before operation is
complete - push the workpiece all the way past the
rear (outfeed or exit) of the sawblade.
4. Make sure by trial before starting the cut that the
anti-kickback pawls will stop a kickback once it has
started. Points of pawls must be SHARP. Replace
when points are dull or rounded.
5. Use a push stick when ripping short (under 12
inches) or narrow (under 6 inches wide) workpieces.
6. CAUTION: Never reposition the Guard or
anti-kickback with power "'ON".
7. A "KICKBACK" occurs during a rip-type
operation. It can occur when the workpiece closes
in on the rear (outfeed side) of the sawblade
(pinching), binds between the fence and the
sawblade (heel), or is grabbed by the sawblade teeth
(wrong-way feed) at the outfeed side. "'PINCHING"
is generally avoided by utilization of the spreader,
and a _harp sawblade of the corrective type for the
workpiece being cut. "HEEL" can be avoided by
maintaining the sawblade exactly parallel to the
fence. (see "DANGER" warning on guard) - it can
be avoided by maintaining parallelism of sawblade
to fence, feeding into the sawblade from the nose of
the guard only, and by utilizing the spreader.
8. Position the nose of the guard to just clear the
workpiece, and position/adjust the anti-kickback
and spreader devices as instructed.
9. NEVER cut more than one piece at a time by
stacking workpieces vertically.
10. NEVER feed a workpiece thru the saw with another
piece (butting second piece against trailing edge of
piece being cut), even if of the same thickness. Feed
each workpiece individually thru the sawblade, and
completely beyond the sawblade, before ripping the
next workpiece. Use push stick if the rip cut is less
than 6" wide.
11. DO NOT pull the workpiece thru the sawblade
-- position your body at the nose (in-feed) side of
the guard: start and complete the cut from that
same side. This will require added table support
for long pieces.
12. Plastic and composition (like styrene and
hardboard) materials may be cut on your saw.
However, since these are usually quite hard and
slippery, the anti-kickback pawls may not stop a
kickback.
Therefore, rip with the finished side down (next to
the table) and be especially attentive to following
proper set-up and cutting procedures. Do not stand,
or permit anyone else to stand, in line with a
potential kickback.
13. When sawing 1/4" or thinner materials, follow all
normal ripping procedures except set sawblade into
table top at least 1/8". This will minimize the
tendency for the sawblade to climb upon top of the
workpiece, and possibly cause an accident. DO NOT
let go of or stop feeding the workpiece between the
blade and fence until you have pushed it completely
past the anti-kickback pawls. Otherwise the
workpiece could get into the back of the sawblade
and be thrown violently from the saw in the
direction opposite to the feed direction. This is the
same action that would occur if the instructions of
tl-e DANGER warning on the guard is aborted. Do
no: stand, or permit anyone else to stand, in line
with the path of a workpiece that may be thrown
from the saw in this manner.
14. Position the saw so neither you, a helper, or a casual
observer is forced to stand in line with the
sawblade.
15. Use extra care when ripping wood that has a twisted
grain or is twisted or bowed - it may rock on the
table and/or pinch the sawblade. If bowed across
the width, place concave side down against the
table.
(C) CROSSCUTTING
1. ALWAYS RETURN THE CARRIAGE TO THE
FULL REARWARD POSITION AT CONCLUSION
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.
2. Place guard in horizontal position and adjust
anti-kickback pawls to just clear the top of the
fence or workpiece, whichever is higher.
3. NEVER gang crosscut - lining up more than one
workpiece in front of the fence - stacked vertically,
or horizontally outward on the table - and then
pulling saw thru: the blade could pick up one or
more pieces and cause a binding or loss of control
and possible injury.
4. Do not position the Arm so the operation you are
performing permits the cutting tool to extend
beyond the edges of the Table.
(D) ACCESSORIES
1. Use only recommended accessories as listed on page
33.
2. Never operate this saw when equipped with a dado
head or molding head unless the molding head
guard is installed - see listing of recommended
accessories. The only exception is when "top-side"
dadoing or molding, when the sawblade guard must
be used. See detailed instructions that accompany
the dado head, molding head, and molding head
guard.
3. The use of abrasive or cut-off wheels, or wire
wheels, can be dangerous and is not recommended.
(Abrasive or cut-off wheels are used to saw many
different materials including metals, stone, and
glass.)

KNOW LOCATIONS AND FUNCTIONS OF CONTROLS
A series of six diagrams is located on the top surface of the
radial arm. These designate the controls that must be used
in basic set-ups and operating procedures. You should
become familiar with these diagrams and the operating
instructions that follow, before operating your saw.
14
1.
2_
a.
b.
Depth of Cut
The diagram shows the elevation crank which is
used to raise and lower the saw blade.
Clockwise rotation raises the blade ...
counterclockwise rotation lowers it. One complete
turn of the handle will raise or lower the saw blade
1/8-inch.
Angle of Cut
a. Two controls are involved in releasing, securing and
indexing the angle of the radial arm. These are: the
arm-latch handle and arm-latch knob.
b. The arm is unlocked from any position by a slight
counterclockwise rotation of the arm latch knob
and is locked in any desired miter position by
rotating the arm-latch knob clockwise until tight.
The radial arm has positive stops at 0 ° and 45 ° left
and right, and is released from these index positions
by unlocking the arm-latch knob 1/4-turn, and
pulling out the arm-latch lever.
c. For the most positive and accurate settings at the
index positions, the following is recommended:
(1) If the radial arm is already indexed, rotate the
arm-latch knob 1/4-turn counterclockwise from
the Iockedposition, pull out the arm-latch lever,
and move the radial arm off the index position.
Release the arm-latch lever.
(2) Move the radial arm into the desired index
position (do not bump or jar it) and push on the
arm-latch lever solidly with the palm of your
hand. This is very important as it ensures proper
seating of the arm lock pin in the arm latch,
thus always setting the arm at the correct
position.
4. Carriage Lock
a. The carriage lock knob is rotated clockwise to
secure the carriage on the radial arm, and
counterclockwise to release it.
b. When performing a square or miter-angle crosscut,
the carriage lock knob must be rotated
counterclockwise until the carriage is free to travel
along the arm. This knob should be tightened
except when the operator is ready to grasp the bevel
index handle and make a cut.
5. Blade Angle
a. The two controls used in angular positioning and
indexing of the motor, to provide the desired
saw-blade (bevel) angle, are: bevel lock knob and
bevel-index knob.
b.
c.
d,
The bevel-index scale indicates the angular position
of the motor with respect to horizontal, from 0 ° to
90 ° in either vertical position.
The bevel index knob automatically indexes the
motor at 0°, 45 ° and 90 ° up and down. Pull out on
the knob while positioning the blade, then release
it. At any other position it does not engage.
The bevel lock knob locks the motor to the yoke
when the motor is in any position. Rotate the knob
clockwise to lock, counterclockwise to unlock.
6. On-Off Switch and Key
The On-Off Switch has a locking feature. THIS
FEATURE IS INTENDED TO PREVENT
UNAUTHORIZED AND POSSIBLE HAZARDOUS

(Make sure by trial before starting the cut that
the Anti-Kickback Pawls will stop a Kick-back
once it has started)
For all crosscutting operations (those operations in which
the carriage is traveled along the radial arm to feed the saw
blade into the workpiece) both the guard and anti-kickback
and spreader assembly must be elevated to clear the
workpiece or the fence, whichever is higher.
1. The blade guard is positioned by loosening the guard
clamp screw and rotating the guard so that it just clears
the workpiece as shown.
2. The anti-kickback and spreader assembly is used during
ripping operations and is adjustable to accommodate
the thickness of the board being ripped. A wing nut in
the guard secures the assembly.
3. Loosen the wing screw and with the tab provided,
position the anti-kickback and spreader assembly until
the pawls assume the approximate position shown.
Tighten the wing screw.
Before making the cut, check the effectiveness of the
anti-kickback pawls by sliding the workpiece under the
pawls in the direction of feed and then attempting to
slide it in the reverse direction - the direction of
kickback. If the pawls do not catch, readjust.
PRECISION INDEXING
Experienced operators of precision equipment, such as this
Craftsman Radial Saw, normally acquire the habit of
indexing the machine in one direction only, whenever a
new setting is made in preparation for a different operation.
For example: when moving the radial arm to a new
position, it is advisable to move it slightly past the desired
index position, then return it slowly and carefully to latch
and lock it. Swivel indexing and bevel indexing can be
accomplished in a similar manner. This indexing technique
tends to neutralize any stresses imposed upon saw
components and contributes to the high degree of accuracy
the saw is capable of producing when operated expertly.
16
basic saw operations
Basic saw operations are summarized into six categories,
explained and illustrated in the following paragraphs. A
manual entitled "The Radial Saw" is available at your
nearest Sears Retail Store or Catalog Order House. This
manual contains considerable data and project ideas
applicable to the radial saw.
NOTE: Refer to paragraphs under "OPERATION" for
illustrations and descriptions of controls.

(OPERATIONS 1 THROUGH 4)
1. Arbor nut must be tight and saw blade guard installed
in horizontal position with anti-kickback device in full
up position.
2. Arm latch handle (knob) must be tight.
3. Adjust the anti-kickback assembly so the pawls just
clear the workpiece.
4. Work must be held firmly against table and fence. For
workpieces thicker than the fence is high, it is
recommended that a higher fence be cut (at least
workpiece thickness) and inserted for that operation
being performed. Always place the fence in the most
forward position (farthest from the column support)
compatible with the workpiece being processed and the
operation being performed. With the carriage fully
retracted, the blade should not contact the workpiece
when placed against the fence, within the stated
capacities of your saw.
5. Blade should be sharp and correctly set.
6. Hands must be kept well away from saw blade.
7. Yoke clamp handle must be in locked position.
8. Bevel index knob must be tight.
9. Blade should cut into the table or plywood cover not
more than 1/32 inch.
10. Pull the saw forward just far enough to sever the
lumber. It is dangerous if the blade has been pulled too
far out beyond the piece being cut. When it is returned
it can pick up the right hand piece and throw it over the
fence.
11. For operations No. 3 and No. 4, observe additional
instructions under paragraph "Operating Controls"-
"Blade Angle".
OPERATION No. 1 - CROSSCUT
Crosscutting is the process of sawing the workpiece by
pulling the saw blade through it and using the fence as a
support for the edge of the workpiece. Never crosscut
free,hand.
WARNING: BEFORE CROSSCUTTING, MAKE SURE
THE ARM LATCH, BEVEL LOCK AND YOKE CLAMP
ARE ALL SECURED. NEVER USE A LENGTH STOP OR
A FIXED GUIDE ON THE FREE END OR EDGE OF A
WORKPIECE. (SEE INSTRUCTION 7 UNDER "SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS TO OPERATOR".) DO NOT CROSSCUT
WORKPIECES THAT PLACE YOUR HANDS CLOSE TO
THE PATH OF THE SAW BLADE. WHEN MORE
EXPERIENCE IS GAINED BY USING THE SAW, IT
WILL BE NOTICED, THAT WHEN PULLING THE SAW
TOWARD YOU DURING CROSSCUTTING, THE BLADE
TENDS TO FEED ITSELF THROUGH THE WORK DUE
TO THE ROTATION OF THE BLADE AND THE
DIRECTION OF THE FEED. THEREFORE, THE

REPETITIVE CROSSCUTTING
Clamp a "'C'" clamp (rain. 6 inch) using a wood block on
each side of the arm. This will limit the carriage travel
beyond the position necessary to complete the crosscut
operation.
17
basic saw operations
OPERATION No. 2-- MITER CROSSCUT
Miter crosscutting is the process of sawing a board at any
angle other than a 90 ° (square) cut. The 45 ° miter angle is
a popular one, since two boards cut to 45 ° can be
assembled to form a 90 ° corner for producing a square or
rectangular frame. The radial arm is set to the desired angle
of cut; yoke and bevel settings indexed at 0 ° (and locked)
as in square crosscutting. The board being cut is held firmly
against the fence (guide) and the carriage pulled forward
along the radial arm to perform the desired cut. As in
"Operation No. 1", the carriage should be returned to full
rear position and the saw blade allowed to come to a
complete stop before removing the boards from saw table.
OPERATION No. 3 - BEVEL CROSSCUT
Bevel crosscutting is the process of sawing at 90 ° (square)
across the board with the saw blade set at an angle other
than 90 ° to the saw table. The radial arm and yoke are
indexed at 0 ° and locked, but the bevel is set to the desired
angle of cut. The board is held firmly against the fence and
the carriage pulled forward along the radial arm to produce
the cut. The carriage should be returned to full rearward
position and the saw blade allowed to come to a complete
stop before removing the boards from saw table.
FENCE
\
OPERATION No. 4- COMPOUND
CROSSCUT
Compound crosscutting is the combination of miter and
bevel crosscuts. The radial arm and bevel are set to produce
the desired cut; the yoke is indexed at 0 ° and locked. The
board is held firmly against the fence and the carriage
pulled forward along the radial arm to produce the cut.
Again, the carriage should be returned to full rearward
position and the saw blade allowed to come to a complete
stop before removing boards from saw table.
18
REQUIREMENTS WHEN RIPPING
(OPERATIONS 5 AND 6)
1. Carriage lock knob must be tight.
2. Radial arm must be locked in 0 ° position.
3. Work must be held firmly against table and fence while
feeding through.
4. Guard and anti-kickback mechanism must be properly
set. Observe instructions in paragraph, "Adjusting
Guard, and Anti-Kickback and Spreader Assembly for
Ripp i ng."
5. Blade should be sharp and correctly set.
6. When ripping narrow stock, less than 3 inches but more
than 1/4 inches between the guard and the fence
(guide), use a push stick.
PUSH STICK
(I-INCH SQUARES)

7. When ripping stock 1/4 inch or less between the blade
and fence (guide) use a pusher board.
Pusher board should not be lessthan 3 inches wide and
16 inches long. Nail or glue a 3/4 x 3/4 x 4 inch block
to one edge of push board to be used as a grip.
The pusher board should be fed into the blade behind
the stock being ripped not more than 8 inches so as not
to strike anti-kickback pawls fingers and then pulled
back with use of the grip.
8. Hands must be kept well away from saw blade.
9. Saw blade must be parallel to fence, to minimize
possibility of kickbacks.

OPERATION No. 5 - OUT-RIPPING
AND IN-RIPPING
Ripping is the process of sawing the workpiece by
feeding it into the saw blade when using the fence as a
guide and as a positioning device to obtain the desired
width of cut.
WARNING: NEVER RIP FREE-HAND. BEFORE
RIPPING, MAKE SURE THE GUARD, SPREADER
AND ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS ARE SET UP
PROPERLY. ALSO, MAKE SURE THE SAW BLADE
IS PARALLEL WITH THE FENCE. NEVER RIP
WORKPIECES SHORTER THAN THE SAW BLADE
DIAMETER.
19
basic saw operations
2,
3.
4.
Since the work is pushed along the fence, it must have a
reasonably straight edge in order to make sliding
contact with the fence. Also, the work must make solid
contact with the table, so that it will not wobble.
Provide a straight edge, even if this means temporary
nailing of an auxiliary straight-edged board to the work.
If the workpiece is warped, turn the hollow side down.
Always use the saw guard and make sure the spreader is
correctly aligned with the saw kerf. Wood cut with the
grain tends to spring the kerf closed and bind the blade
and a kickback could occur.
Stand a little to one side of center to avoid being
sprayed with sawdust and to be clear of work in case of
kickback.
5. When ripping short or narrow work, always use a push
stick applied to the section of the workpiece between
the blade and fence ... push the work past the blade
so it is clear of the blade. This procedure will minimize
the possibility of kickbacks.
In-Ripping. The radial arm and bevel are indexed at 0 ° and
locked, but the yoke is turned 90-degrees in a clockwise
direction (viewed from above) from the crosscut position.
Thus, when standing in front of the saw, the blade would
be rotating counterclockwise. After positioning the guard
and anti-kickback mechanism the workpiece is fed from the
right-hand side of the saw. The "In-Rip" scale is on the
right-hand side of radial arm.
Out-Ripping. The radial arm and bevel are indexed at 0 °
and locked, but the yoke is turned 90-degrees in a
counterclockwise direction (viewed from above), from the
crosscut position. When standing in front of the saw, blade
would be rotating clockwise. After positioning the guard
and anti-kickback mechanism the workpiece is fed from the
left-hand side of the saw, as shown in figure 58. The
"Out-Rip" scale is on the right hand side of radial arm.
OPERATION No. 6-- BEVEL RIPPING
Bevel ripping is either in-ripping or out-ripping as described
above, except the saw blade is tilted out of perpendicular to
the saw table surface. The radial arm is indexed at 0 ° and
locked, the bevel is set to the desired bevel angle and the
yoke is positioned for in-ripping (saw blade at rear) or
out-ripping (saw blade at front), as required. All
requirements and observations applicable to normal ripping
operations also apply to bevel ripping.
DADOING
Instructions for operating the Dado Head are contained in
booklet furnished with the Dado Head.
The saw arbor is designed for dado heads up to 13/16
inches wide. Do not install a wider dado head on the arbor.
Take several passes if required dado cut exceeds 13/16 inch.
When installing the dado head on the arbor, ALWAYS
install the inside "loose collar" first. Be sure the teeth of
the chippers are placed to fall in blade gullets, and chippers
are approximately equally spaced around the arbor.
DO NOT install the outside loose collar. Make sure the
arbor nut is tight. Install the arbor next directly against the
outer blade of dado head.
For best results and to avoid excessive load on the motor,
NEVER CUT A 13/16" WIDE DADO, DEEPER THAN
3/4" IN ONE PASS.
MOLDING/SANDING
Instructions for operating the Molding Head are contained
in a booklet furnished with the Molding Head.
For use of Molding Head Cutter or Drum Sander the rear

MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
NOTE: This motor should be blown out, or "vacuumed",
frequently to prevent sawdust interference with normal
motor ventilation.
Your saw motor is equipped with a manual-reset,
thermal-overload protector designed to open the power-line
circuit when the motor temperature exceeds a safe value.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
If the protector opens the line and stops the saw motor,
immediately press the saw switch to the "'OFF"
position, and allow the motor to cool.
After cooling to a safe operating temperature, the
overload protector can be closed manually by pushing
in the red button on the top of the motor. If the red
button will not snap into place immediately, the motor
is still too hot and must be allowed to cool for a while
longer. (An audible click will indicate protector is
closed.)
As soon as the red button will snap into running
position, the saw may be started and operated
normally, by pulling out the saw switch to the "ON"
position.
Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result
if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit is fused
differently from recommendations. Overloading can
occur if you feed too rapidly or if your saw is
misaligned so that the blade heels. Donot use a fuse of
greater capacity without consulting a qualified
electrician.
Although the motor is designed for operation on the
voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the nameplate voltage.
Heavy loads, however, require that voltage at motor
terminals equals the voltage specified on nameplate.
Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or
incorrect connections, overloading, reduced input
voltage (such as small size wires in the supply circuit) or
21
to an overly long supply circuit. Always check the
connections, the load and the supply circuit, whenever
the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire
sizes and lengths with the table following.
WIRE SIZES
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent
over-heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to
determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension cord.
Use only 3 wire extension cords which have 3 prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept
the tools plug.

trouble-shooting
WARNING: REMOVE POWER CORD FROM POWER
SOURCE BEFORE TROUBLE SHOOTING.
Even' though the finest materials and precision
workmanship have been incorporated into your Craftsman
saw, it is reasonable to expect some wear after long periods
of use. Sooner or later, the metal to metal parts must wear
and will need take-up. Every metal to metal part on your
Craftsman saw can be taken up. In this way, the machine
can always be kept accurate and just as important, rigid.
The usual operating "troubles" are listed in the following
paragraphs with the necessary corrections listed.
LOOSENESS OF COLUMN TUBE IN COLUMN
SUPPORT -- ELEVATION CRANK OPERATES
ROUGHLY OR CHATTERS WHEN ROTATED.
Refer to Step two in Alignment Procedure Section.
Check for looseness (movement) of column tube in
column support.
2. RADIAL SAW DOES NOT MAKE ACCURATE 0 ° or
45 ° MITER CROSSCUTS.
a. Looseness between column tube and column
support.
Align as described in Alignment Procedure Section

NOTE: This condition is commonly called "HEEL" or
"TO E".
a. Crosscutting or Miter Cutting
Heeling will tend to slide the workpiece toward the
right along the guide fence, as the cut is being made,
and make a square cut almost impossible. A blade
with "toe" will tend to slide the board to the left
along the fence.
Refer to step 5 under Alignment Procedure Section
- "Squaring Blade to Fence".

b. Radial arm not securely locked in 0 ° position.
Loosen the arm lock knob and refer to paragraph
"Precision Indexing".
c. Crosscut not properly squared.
Check and align as described in Alignment
Procedure Section, Step Two and Three. Squaring
crosscut automatically corrects this condition for
ripping.
d. Saw blade heels.

8. CARRIAGE BEARINGS LOOSE.
To test for looseness between hearings and tracks on
radial arm, perform the following steps.
a. Remove left-hand carriage cover.
b. Push the carriage to its full most rearward position.
c. Finger hold front carriage bearing as shown and
apply as much force as possible and at the same
time pull carriage forward. If you can stop the
hearing from turning it will require adjusting.
d. Check rear bearing in the same manner and adjust as
follows:
1. Loosen nuts just enough to permit the eccentric
screws to turn.
2.
3.
Rotate the eccentric screws a partial turn (left
or right) as required to take up looseness.
Hold the heads of eccentric screws in the
position established in the preceding step and
tighten nuts on underside of carriage. Correct
adjustment exists when you cannot keep the
bearings from turning.

9. YOKE DOES NOT INDEX PROPERLY.
Check for proper yoke indexing noting that the swivel
latch pin fits into its detents properly. If swivel latch
pin housing screws (located under left hand carriage
cover) are loose, readjust blade for "heel" or "toe" as
described in Alignment Procedure Section, Step Five.
10. YOKE CLAMP HANDLE ADJUSTMENT.
The normal locking position of the yoke clamp handle
is parallel with the radial arm. When wear has occured
to permit the handle to strike the yoke before locking,
the handle must be adjusted as follows:

d.
Grasp the carriage assembly, holding it parallel to
the radial arm until all carriage bearings are free of
their tracks, move it carefully off the end of radial
arm.
Rest the motor and carriage assembly on saw work
table.
e. Locate the index plate locking screw at rear of yoke
assembly.

f. Turn locking screw out at least 1/4-inch from tight
position, this frees the index plate which is keyed to
the yoke clamp stud.
g. Loosen yoke clamp handle and, with a screwdriver,
rotate the yoke clamp stud clockwise (viewed from
bottom) a fraction of a turn.
h. Tighten yoke clamp handle and, if it still does not
tighten at the proper handle position, loosen the
handle and rotate the stud an additional fraction of
a turn. Two or more trials may he required.
i. Rotate the locking screw back into tight position to
secure the index plate. If the end of the screw does
not pass through a slot in index plate, rotate the
yoke clamp stud just enough (either direction) to
align a slot with end of screw. (The screw tightens
against the head when properly locked.)
j. Hold the motor and carriage assembly parallel to
radial arm and start the rear bearings onto the
tracks. Continue to hold the assembly parallel to
the tracks until the forward hearings are on the
tracks.
k. Slide the carriage rearward on the radial arm and
install the carriage stop screw and Iockwasher.

MOTOR TROUBLE - SHOOTING CHART
NOTE: Motors used on wood-working tools are particularly
susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips
and should be blown out or "vacuumed" frequently to
prevent interference with normal motor ventilation.
TROUBLE SUGGESTED REMEDY
Motor will not run. 1.
Motor will not run and
fu ses "B LOW".
Motor fails to develop
full power. (Power output
of motor decreases rapidly
with decrease in voltage at
motor terminals. For
example: a reduction of
10% in voltage causes a
reduction of 19% in
maximum power output
of which the motor is
capable, while a reduction
of 20% in voltage causes
a reduction of 36% in
maximum power output.)
Motor overheats.
Motor starts slowly or
fails to come up to full
speed.
Motor stalls (resulting in
blown fuses or tripped
circuit breakers).
Frequent opening of
fuses or circuit breakers.
PROBABLE CAUSE
1. Protector open; circuit
broken.
2. Low voltage.
1. Short circuit in line,
cord or plug.
2. Short circuit in motor or
loose connections.
Power line overloaded with
lights, appliances and other
motors.
2. Undersize wires or circuit
too long.
3. General overloading of
power company's facilities.
(In many sections of the
country, demand for
electrical power exceeds
the capacity of existing
generating and distribution
systems.)
4. Incorrect fuses in power line.
1. Excessive feed rate when
crosscutting or ripping.
2. Improper cooling. (Air
circulation restricted
through motor due to
sawdust, etc.)
3. Saw blade has "heel".
1. Low Voltage - will not trip
starting switch.
1. Voltage too low to permit
motor to reach operating
speed.
2. Fuses or circuit breakers
do not have sufficient
capacity.
1. Motor overloaded.
2. Fuses or circuit breakers
do not have sufficient
capacity.
2.
Reset protector by pushing on red button,
located on top of motor (indicated by
audible click).
Check power line for proper voltage.
1.
2.
Inspect line, cord and plug for damaged
insulation and shorted wires.

maintenance and lubrication
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH
"OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER SOURCE
OUTLET BEFORE MAINTAINING OR LUBRICATING
YOUR SAW.
When you receive your new Craftsman radial saw, it
requires no lubrication. The radial saw has been partially
aligned and all bearings are lubricated and sealed for life. In
time, however, 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 ANTI-KICKBACK pawls are
always sharp. To sharpen;
1. Remove Blade Guard
2. Remove pawls from anti-kickback and spreader
assembly.
3. Group pawls and position in vise as shown. Sharpen,
using a small flat file (smooth cut).
LUBRICATION
Your saw is precision built and should be kept clean and
properly lubricated. Before describing the various points
which may periodically require lubrication, IT IS MORE
IMPORTANT TO FIRST MENTION THE VARIOUS
POINTS WHICH SHOULD NOT BE LUBRICATED.
NO LUBRICATION REQUIRED
Do not lubricate carriage ball bearings or motor bearings as
these are sealed ball bearings and require no added
lubrication.
Do not lubricate between radial arm cap and radial arm.
PERIODICALLY LUBRICATE THESE POINTS
Use SAE No. 10W-30 automotive engine oil and refer to
Parts List for locations. Apply a few drops of oil along the
swivel latch pin only if the pin has a tendency to stick.
Remove the left-hand carriage cover and use oil sparingly to
prevent it from getting on the ball bearings or races.
A light film of oil should be wiped on the face of the
column tube and keyway to lubricate the fit between the
column tube, the key and column support.
Apply a few drops of oil to the bearing surfaces of the
elevation crank shaft assembly. An oil hole is provided in
the elevation shaft bearing bracket to facilitate the
lubrication of the bearing support.
The thread on the elevation shaft assembly can be
lubricated through the oil hole in the center of the radial
arm cap.
CAUTION: Excessive oil at any location will attract
airborne dust particles and sawdust.
