additional safety instructions for table saws

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT

ATTEMPT TO OPERATE YOUR SAW UNTIL IT IS

COMPLETELY ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED

ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS . .. AND UNTIL

YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE

FOLLOWING.

1. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER

TOOLS ... SEE PG. 2

2. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SAW ...SEE PG. 8

3. BASIC SAW OPERATION ... SEE PG. 11

4. ADJUSTMENTS ... SEE PG. 17

5. MAINTENANCE ... SEE PG. 20

6. STABILITY OF SAW

If there is any tendency for the saw to tip over or move

during certain cutting operations such as cutting

extremely large heavy panels or long heavy boards, the

saw should be bolted down,

If you attach any kind of table extensions over 24"

wide, make sure they are supported underneath by a

sturdy brace attached to saw base or bench.

7. LOCATION

The saw should be positioned so neither the operator

nor a casual observer is forced to stand in line with the

saw blade.

8. KICKBACKS

Kickbacks can cause serious injury: A kickback occurs

when a part of the workpiece binds between the

sawblade and the rip fence or other fixed object, rises

from the table, and is thrown toward the operator.

Keep your face and body to one side of the sawblade,

out of line with a possible "Kickback".

Kickbacks - and possible injury from them -- can

usually be avoided by:

a. Maintaining the rip fence parallel to the sawblade.

b. Keeping the sawblade sharp, Keeping points of

anti-kickback pawls sharp.

c. Keeping sawblade guard, spreader, and

anti-kickback pawls in place and operating properly.

The spreader must be in alignment with the

sawblade and the pawls must stop a kickback once

it has started. Check their action before ripping.

d. NOT ripping work that is twisted or warped or does

not have astraight edge to guide along the fence.

e. NOT releasing work until you have pushed it all the

way past the sawblade.

f. Using a push stick for ripping widths of 2 to 6

inches, and an auxiliary fence/push block for

ripping widths narrower than 2 inches (See section

on "'R ipping").

9. PROTECTION: EYES, HANDS, FACE, EARS, BODY

a. If any part of your saw is malfunctioning, has been

damaged or broken ... such as the motor switch, or

other operating control, asafety device or the power

cord ... cease operating immediately until the

particular part is properly repaired or replaced.

b. Wear safety goggles that comply with ANS

Z87.1-1968, and a face shield if operation is dusty.

Wear ear plugs or muffs during extended periods of

operation.

c. Small loose pieces of wood or other objects that

contact the rear of the revolving blade can be

thrown back at the operator at excessive speed. This

can usually be avoided by keeping the guard and

spreader in place for all thru-sawing operations

(sawing entirely thru the work) AND by removing

all loose pieces from the table with a long stick of

wood IMMEDIATELY after they are cut off.

d. Use extra caution when the guard assembly is

removed for resawing, dadoing, rabbeting, or

molding -- replace the guard as soon as that

operation is completed.

e. NEVER turn the saw "ON" before clearing the table

of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except the workpiece

and related feed or support devices for the operation

planned.

f. NEVER place your face or body in line with the

cutting tool.

g. NEVER place your fingers or hands in the path of

the sawblade or other cutting tool.

h. NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with either

hand to hold down or support the workpiece,

remove wood scraps, or for any other reason. Avoid

awkward operations and hand positions where a

sudden slip could cause fingers or hand to move into

a sawblade or other cutting tool.

i. DO NOT perform anY operation "FREEHAND" -

always use either the fence or the miter gauge to

position and guide the work.

j. NEVER use the fence when crosscutting or the

miter gauge when ripping. DO NOT use the fence as

a length stop.

k. Shut "OFF" the saw and disconnect the power cord

when removing the table insert, changing the cutting

tool, removing or replacing the blade guard, or

making adjustments.

I. Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of

the saw table for wider or long workpieces.

m. Plastic and composition (like 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, be especially attentive to following

proper set-up and cutting procedures for ripping

these materials. Do not stand, or permit anyone else

to stand, in line with a potential kickback.

10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS

a. Dull, gummy, or improperly sharpened or set

cutting tools can cause material to stick, jam, stall

the saw, or kickback at the operator.

Minimize potential injury by proper cutting tool and

machine maintenance.

NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED

SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE

SAW OFF.

b. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels,

friction wheels (metal slitting blades), wire wheels or

buffing wheels.

11. NOTE THE FOLLOWING DANGER LABEL WHICH

APPEARS ON THE FRONT OF THE SAW.

DANGER

FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY

1_ READ AND UNDERSTAND OWNER'S MANUAL

BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE.

2. WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES.

3. KEEP HANDS OUT OF PATH OF SAW BLADE_.

=K KNOW HOW TO AVOID "KICKBACKS".

5. USE I'PUSH-ST|CK "_ WHEN RIPPING SHORT OR

NARROW WORK.

12. THINK SAFETY

Safety is a combination of operator common sense and

alertness at all times when the saw is being used.

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.

MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION

The 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. If the protector opens the line and stops the saw motor,

move the saw switch lever to the "OFF" position

immediately and allow the motor to cool.

After cooling to a safe operating temperature, the

overload protector can be closed manually be pushing

in the red RESET button on the front of saw. 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.

3. As soon as the red button will snap into running

position, the saw may be started and operated normally

by moving the saw switch lever to the "ON" position.

4. Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result

if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit is fused

with a fuse other than those recommended. Do not use

a fuse of greater capacity without consulting the power

company.

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 be not less than the voltage specified on

nameplate.

CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE OUTLET

This saw must be grounded while in use to protect the

operator from electrical shock.

If power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have

it replaced immediately.

If your unit is for use on less than 150 volts it has a plug

that looks like below.

basic saw operation

We recommend the following instructions for operating

your saw so that you get the best results and to minimize

the likelihood of personal injury.

CROSSCUTTING, MITER CUTTING, BEVEL CUTTING,

COMPOUND MITER CUTTING and RABBETING across

the end of a narrow workpiece are performed using the

MITER GAGE.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.

1. Never make these cuts freehand (without using the

miter gage or other auxiliary devices) because the blade

could bind in the cut and cause a KICKBACK or cause

your fingers or hand to slip into the blade.

2. Always lock the miter gage securely when in use.

3. Remove rip fence from table.

4. Make sure blade guard is installed.

5. Have blade extend approximately 1/8 inch above top of

workpiece. Additional blade exposure could be

hazardous.

6. Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case of a

KICKBACK. Stand to either side of the blade.

7. Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path

of the blade.

8. If blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN SWITCH

OFF before attempting to free the blade.

9. Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the

workpiece through the cut ... to support long or

heavy workpieces ... to remove small cut-off piecesof

material or FOR ANY OTHER REASON.

10. Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the

table. REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table

with a long stick. Otherwise they could be thrown back

at you by the rear of the blade.

11. Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may

become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw

is RUNNING• THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR

HANDS or cause a KICKBACK.

Turn the saw OFF. After the blade has stopped turning,

lift the guard and remove the piece.

•NOTE: Glue a piece of sandpaper to the face of the miter

gauge head. This will help prevent the workpiece from

"creeping" while it is being cut.

CROSSCUTTING

NOTE: The space between the miter gauge bar and the

groove in the table is held to a minimum during

manufacturing.

For maximum accuracy when using the miter gauge, always

"favor" one side of the groove in the table. In other words,

don't move the miter gaugefrom sideto sidewhile cutting,

but keep one side of the bar riding against one side of the

groove.

CROSSCUTTING is known as cutting wood across the

grain, at 90 °, or square with both the edge and the flat side

of the wood. This is done with the miter gage set at "'0".

The miter gage may be used in either of the grooves in the

table. Make sure it is locked.

When using the miter gage in the LEFT hand groove, hold

the workpiece firmly against the miter gage head with your

left hand, and grip the lock handle with your right ... or

use Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory).

HOLD DOWN CLAMP

When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpiece

with your right hand and the Iockhandle with your left

THE ADJUSTABLE TABLE EXTENSION is recommended

for supporting long workpieces while crosscutting ... or

you can make a simple support by clamping a piece of

plywood to a sawhorse.

REPETITIVE CUTTING

REPETITIVE CUTTING is known as cutting a quantity of

pieces the same length without having to mark each piece.

Use the Stop Rods (optional accessory) only for cutting

duplicate pieces 6 inches long and longer.

NEVER guide or support the workpiece extending over

the edge of the saw table with your free hand.

When making repetitive cuts from a long workpiece, be

sure to support it from the floor.

performedusing the RIP FENCEtogetherwith

AUXILIARYdeviceswhenrequired.

WARNING:FORYOUROWNSAFETY,ALWAYS

OBSERVETHEFOLLOWINGSAFETYPRECAUTIONS.

Nevermake these cuts FREEHAND (without using the

rip fence or auxiliary devices when required) because

the blade could bind in the cut and cause a

KICKBACK.

2. Always lock the rip fence securely when in use.

3. Remove miter gage from table.

4. Make sure blade guard is installed for all rip type cuts.

Replace the guard IMMEDIATELY following

completion of resewing, rabbeting, dadoing, or molding

operations.

Frequently check the action of the ANTI-KICKBACK

PAWLS by passing the workpiece alongside of the

spreader while saw is OFF.

Pull the workpiece TOWARD you. If the PAWLS do

not DIG into the workpiece and HOLD it ... the pawls

must be SHARPENED. Refer to "Maintenance" section

further on in this manual.

10.

11.

Have blade extend approximately 1/8 inch above top of

workpiece. Additional blade exposure could be

hazardous.

Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case of a

KICKBACK. Stand to either side of the blade.

Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path

of the blade.

If the blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN

SWITCH OFF before attempting to free the blade.

Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the

workpiece through the cut ... to support long or

heavy workpieces .... to remove small cut-off pieces of

material or FOR ANY OTHER REASON.

Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the

table. REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table

with along stick. Otherwise they could be thrown back

at you by the rear of the blade.

Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may

become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw

is RUNNING. THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR

HANDS or cause a KICKBACK.

Turn the saw OFF ... lift the guard and remove the

piece.

Certain ripping cuts require the use of Auxiliary Devices,

RIPPING

RIPPING is known as cutting a piece of wood with the

grain, or lengthwise. This isdone using the rip fence.

Position the fence to the desired WIDTH OF RIP by

measuring the distance from the "pencil mark" (which you

made when Installing the Blade Guard) to the end of the rip

fence head and lock it.

NOTE: When bevel ripping 6inches or narrower use fence

on the right side of the sawblade ONLY. This will provide

more space between the fence and the sawblade for use of a

push stick. If the fence is mounted to the left, the sawblade

guard may interfere with the proper use of a push stick.

LONO WORKP[ECES

WORK SUPPORT

Use a"saw horse" ... and a piece of plywood.

When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 6 inches and WIDER use your

RIGHT hand to feed the workpiece until it is clear of the

table.

Use LEFT hand ONLY to guide the workpiece ... do not

FEED the workpiece with the left hand.

When "WIDTH of RIP" is 2 inches to 6 inches wide USE

THE PUSH STICK to feed the work.

When WIDTH of RIP is NARROWER than 2inches, the

push stick CANNOT be used because the guard will

INTERFERE ... USE the AUXILIARY FENCE/PUSH

BLOCK.

NARROW RIPPING - SHORT PIECES - UP TO 18"

Position the AUXILIARY FENCE to the desired WIDTH

RESAWING

RESAWING is known as ripping apiece of wood through,

its thickness. To RESAW apiece of wood wider than 2-1/8

inch ... it will be necessary to remove the blade guard ...

and use an AUXl LIARY FENCE which you can make,

Do not attempt to resaw BOWED or WARPED material.

Use apiece of 3/8 inch plywood 9 in. x 20 in.... and

attach astrip of wood 1-5/8 inches thick x 2-1/2 inches

wide.

Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece will SLIDE

EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS without

BINDING between the two fences.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY ...

1. NEVER RESAW FREEHAND (WITHOUT USING RIP

FENCE AND AUXILIARY FENCE) BECAUSE THE

BLADE COULD BIND IN THE CUT AND CAUSE A

KICKBACK.

2. DO NOT "BACK UP" (REVERSE FEEDING) WHILE

RESAWlNG BECAUSE THIS COULD CAUSE A

KICKBACK.

3. INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON

COMPLETION OF THE RESAWlNG OPERATION.

RABBETING

Rabbeting is known as cutting out a section of the corner

of a piece of material.

To make a RABBET requires two cuts which do not go all

the way through the material. Therefore the blade guard

must be removed.

1. Remove blade guard.

2. Adjust rip fence and blade to required dimensions.

3. Make first cut through edge. Follow resawing

procedure.

4. Remove auxiliary fence and make second cut.

5. INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON

COMPLETION OF RABBETING OPERATION.

Rabbet cuts can also be made using the dado head or

molding head.

adjustments

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN

SWITCH "OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER

SOURCE OUTLET BEFORE MAKING ANY

ADJUSTMENTS.

MITER GAUGE

NOTE: The graduations are manufactured to very close

tolerances which provide suitable accuracy for average

woodworking. In some cases where extreme accuracy is

required, when making angle cuts, for example, make a trial

cut and then recheck it.

If necessary, the miter gauge head can then be swiveled

slightly to compensate and then locked.

The HEAD should be SQUARE (900 ) with the bar when

the pointer points to "0".

To check for squareness, place an accurate square on the

miter gauge. If the head is NOT SQUARE with the bar:

1. Loosen the lock handle.

2. Position the head square with the bar ... tighten the

handle.

HEELING ADJUSTMENT or PARALLELISM OF

SAWBLADE TO MITER GAUGE GROOVE.

While cutting, the material must move in astraight line

PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE . . .therefore both the

miter gauge GROOVE and the RIP FENCE must be

PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE.

If the sawblade IS NOT parallel to the miter gauge groove,

the blade will bind at one end of the cut.

To check for parallelism:

WARNING - FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH

"OFF AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER SOURCE

OUTLET.

1. Raise blade all the way up . ., raise blade guard.

2. Mark an "X" on one of the teeth which is SET (bent)

to the LEFT.

3. Place the head of a combination square in the

GROOVE ... adjust blade of square so that it just

touches the tip of the MARKED tooth.

4. Move square to REAR, rotate blade to see if MARKED

tooth again touches blade of square.

5. If tooth touches square the same amount at FRONT

and REAR ... miter gage groove IS PARALLEL to

BLADE.

3. Loosen the screw and adjust the pointer, so it points to

zero.

The swiveling movement of the bead can be adjusted by

tightening or loosening the set screw located in side of the

head using the 1/8 inch setscrew wrench.
