lock knob so that the radial arm is free to swing right

or left as desired, and the carriage rolls freely on the

arm.

Loosen the two 5/16-inch hex-head screws that

secure the left-hand table support. Loosen them just

enough for the support to move up or down when

tapped with a rubber mallet. Tap the support to

position it with its top surface approximately 1/16-

inch above the top surface of the adjoining saw base.

Position the radial arm, and also position the carriage

on the arm, to place the bottom end of the motor

shaft directly above the rear, left-hand, table support

attaching screw.

Lay the handle end of the arbor wrench on the

mounting support and, while holding the wrench flat

on the support, carefully rotate the elevation crank

to lower the motor until the motor shaft end just

touches the wrench surface. You should be able to

slide the wrench back and forth with only slight

resistance.

IMPORTANT: The radial-arm elevation setting

must remain the same throughout the remain-

der of this table-supports adjusting procedure.

Do qot change the setting until you have

satisfactorily completed the adjustment of

both table mounting supports.

a workbench or the floor. It is upside down when the

face in which the screw holes are counterbored is at

bottom. Note that there are two holes near the

center of the board, one smaller in diameter than the

other. Drive the T-nut (furnished with loose parts)

into the smaller of these two center holes.

Turn the front table top side up and place it on the

table supports, locating it so that the six screw holes

near the board sides are aligned with their corre-

sponding holes in the two supports.

C. In each of the six boles located above the table

supports, place one 17/64-inch flat washer and one

1i4-20xl-inch pan-head machine screw. In the larger

of the two center holes place one 17!64-inch flat

washer and one 1/4-20xl 1!4-inch pan-head machine

screw - and start the screw into the U-nut on the

front of the saw base (but do not tighten it). In the

smaller center hole {with the T-nut underneath),

barely start the cup-point set-screw.

Install one 1!4-inch Iockwasher and one 1/4 20 hex

nut on each of the six screws in the table supports,

and tighten slightly. The board should be snug

against the supports, but not held too tightly to be

moved by tapping it firmly with a rubber mallet.

1, Changing Motor Connections

a. Unde_ normal home workshop usage, and if proper

(full voltage is supplied to the motor, your saw will

operate efficiently on 120V, as connected at the

factory. However, if any of the following conditions

exists, it wi!l be advisable for you to reconnect the

motor for 24OV operation - to obtain the efficiency

and I)erformance for which your saw is designed:

(1) Continuous heavy-duty operations.

(2) Either an undersized or an overloaded branch

circuit serving the saw motor.

(3) Low voltage supplied by the power source,

which the power company cannot correct.

Motor wiring connections for 120V (as made at the

factory) are described below. Necessary reconnec-

tions for 240V operation are also described follow-

ing. Whenever changing connections from 120V to

240V or vice-versa, make certain that a!l necessary

steps (including proper fusing of the branch circuit)

are completed.

2. Connections for 120V A.C. (Figure 31)

a. Remove nameplate cover from motor to expose

terminal board.

b. The wires inside of the motor must be connected as

follows:

(1) The orange-colored wire on number 6 terminal.

(2) The brown-colored wire on number 5 terminal.

c. Use the 120V power-cord plug furnished with your

saw.

3. Connections for 240V A.C. (Figure 32)

a. The wires inside the motor terminal box must be

connected as fo!lows:

(1) The orange-colored wire on number 8terminal.

(21 The brown-colored wire on number 7 terminal.

b. Replace the 120V power-cord plug with a(3-blade)

240V plug, connecting the power-cord white and

black leads, respectively, to the two "hot" plug

blades - and connecting the power-cord grounding

wire to the third (neutral) plug blade.

c. Plug your saw into a 240V, 3-blade receptacle.

d. Make certain the receptacle is connected to a 240V

A-C power supply through a 240V branch circuit

having at least a 15-amp. capacity, and protected by

a 15 amp. time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.

Figure 32

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

different!y from recommended. Overloading can occur if

you feed too rapidly or if your saw is misaligned so that

the blade heels. Do not use afuse 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

equals the voltage specified on nameplate.

Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect

connections, overloading, reduced input voltage Isuch as

small size wires in the supply circuit) or to an

overlylong supply circuit. Always check the connec-

tions, the load and the supply circuit, whenever the

motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire sizes

and lengths with the table following.

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 (figure

33).

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

immediately press the saw switch to the "OFF" posi-

tion, and allow the motor to cool.

2. 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.)

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.

1. Depth of Cut

a. The diagram shows the elevation crank (10, figure

34), which is used to raise and lower the saw blade.

b. Clockwise rotation raises the blade.., counter-

clockwise rotation lowers it. One complete turn of

the handle will raise or lower the saw blade 1/8-inch.

2. Angle of Cut

CAUTION: WHEN MOVING THE RADIAL ARM IN

ANY DIRECTION BEYOND 45 ° (LEFT OR RIGHT_,

ALWAYS PULL OUT THE ARM-LATCH LEVER (1,

FIGURE 34). OR LOOSEN THE LEVER BY RO-

TATING THE ARM-LATCH HANDLE (18}

COUNTERCLOCKWISE UNTIL IT STOPS, TO PRE-

VENT DAMAGING THE ARM-LOCK PIN, DAMAGE

OF THIS NATURE WOULD PREVENT PROPER IN-

DEXING OF THE RADIAL ARM AT THE 0 ° AND

45 ° POSITIONS (LEFT OR RIGHT}.

a. Two controls are involved in releasing, securing and

indexing the angle of the radial arm. These are: the

arm-latch handle (18, figure 34), and the arm-latch

lever (1).

WARNING: THE SAW SHOULD NEVER BE

OPERATED WITH THE SAW BLADE OUT-

SIDE OF THE TABLE AREA, EVEN

THOUGH THE RADIAL ARM CAN BE RO-

TATED A FULL 360 ° AND LOCKED IN ANY

POSITION.

b. The arm is unlocked from any position by a slight

counterclockwise rotation of the armlatch handle

and is locked in any desired miter position by

rotating the arm-latch handle clockwise until tight.

O O

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 handle 1/4 turn, and

pulling out the arm-latch lever.

For the most positive and accurate settings at the

index positions, the following is recommended:

operating controls

(1) If the radial arm is already indexed, rotate the

arm-latch handle ( 18, figure 34) 1!4turn counter-

clockwise from the locked position, 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 (figure 34 inset). 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.

(3) Lock the radial arm by rotating the arm-latch

handle clockwise until tight.

3. Yoke Pivot

a. Two controls are used in this operation. They ate:

the swivel latch-pin knob (2, figure 34) and the yoke

clamp handle (6, figure 34).

b. A swivel latch pin automatically indexes the yoke at

each 90 ° position. Lift the spring-loaded swivel

latch-pin knob to release this pin.

e. The yoke clamp handle locks the yoke to the carriage

in any position. Pull the handle forward to release

the yoke; push the handle rearward to secure the

yoke.

4. Carriage Lock

a. The carriage lock knob (5, figure 34) 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 counterclock-

wise 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 (14,

figure 34) and rnake 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: the bevel lock knob (t 1,

figL_re 34) and the latch pin handle (8, figure 34).

b. The bevel-index scale (9, figure 34) indicates the

angular position of the motor with respect to

horizontal, from 0 ° to 90 ° in either vertical position.

c. The bevel latch pin automatically indexes the motor

at 0°, 45 ° and 90 ° up and down. Lift the spring

loaded latch-pin handle to release this pin. At any

other position, the latch pin does not engage.

d. The bevel lock knob locks the motor to the yoke

when the motor is in any position. Rotate the knob

cloekwise to lock, counterclockwise to unlock.

6. Power Switch and Key

a. This saw cannot be operated without the key, and

the key cannot be removed from the lock while the

saw motor is running.

b, To release the switch lever (15, figure 34) insert the

key (7, figure 34) in the slot and turn it counter-

clockwise until it stops. Rotate the key clockwise

to lock the switch.

c. To start the saw, engage your forefinger under the

left side of the switch lever and pull the lever

outward.

d lo stop the saw, simply push the switch lever with

finger or thumb.

WARNING: When leaving the saw unattended,

lock the ON-OFF switch and remove the key.

POSITIONING SAWDUST CHUTE, AND

ANTI-KICKBACK AND SPREADER

ASSEMBLY, FOR RIPPING

WARNING: NEVER POSITION THE GUARD

CHUTE OR ANTI-KICKBACK ASSEMBLY

WITH THE POWER ON. NEVER POSITION

THE ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS BY GRASP-

ING THE PAWLS OR SPREADER.

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 sawdust chute (16,

figure 34) and the anti-kickback and spreader assembly (12,

figure 34) must be elevated to clear theworkpiece or the

fence, whichever is higher.

1. The Anti-Kickback and Spreader Assembly

The anti-kickback and spreader assembly (12, figure

34) is used during ripping operations and is adjust-

able to accommodate the thickness of the board

being ripped. A wing nut in the guard secures the

assembly.

The anti-kickback and spreader assembly is posi-

tioned by grasping the top of the light housing

assembly (23, figure 3 on p. 30), I9osening the wing

nut, and raising or lowering the assembly until the

anti-kickback pawl point nearest the saw blade rests

on the top surface of the workpiece, with the bottom

edge of the pawls angled slightly downhill to the top

surface of the workpiece. (See figure 35.) Before

making the cut, check the effectiveness of the

anti-kickback pawls by placing the workpiece under

Figure 35

WORK

_I KICKBACK

basic saw operations

the pawls and attempting to slide it in the direction

of kickback. If the pawls do not catch, further

adjustment is necessary.

When positioning the anti-kickback and spreader

assembly for bevel ripping, lower the assembly until

the Iocknut just clears the workpiece. If the pawls do

not catch, further adjustment is necessary.

Before repositioning the yoke to the crosscut posi-

tion, false the anti-kickback assembly to the upper

limit and secure.

The tips of the anti-kickback pawls should be

checked occasionally and kept sharp.

2. The Sawdust Chute

a. The sawdust chute (16, figure 34) is used to help

prope! sawdust from the cut and provide a hold-

down for boards during ripping.

b The sawdust chute is positioned by grasping the

upper tab et lower end of chute, loosening the knob

(17, figure 34) and raising or lowering it to just clear

the top surface of the board being ripl_ed_'T-_ght_'_n_

the knob secures the chute.

c. Before repositionlng the yoke to the crosscut posi-

tion, raise the chute to the upper limit and secure.

IMPORTANT: In ripping operations the work-

piece is always fed from the sawdust chute side,

never from the anti-kickback side of the guard.

(See figures 41 and 42.)

PRECISION INDEXING

Experienced operators of precision equipment, such as your

Craftsman Radial-Arm 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. Figure 34 inset shows the radial arm being se-

curely indexed by "tapping" the arm latch lever with the

palm of the hand. Swivel indexing and bevel indexing can

be accomplished in a similar manner This indexing tech-

nique tends to neutralize any stresses imposed upon the saw

components, and contributes to the high degree of accuracy

the saw is capable of producing when operated expertly.

BASIC SAW OPERATIONS

REQUIREMENTS FOR CROSSCUT

(OPERATIONS 1THROUGH 4)

1. Be sure you return the carriage to the full rearward posi-

tion at the conclusion of each cut. Never remove your

hand from the bevel index handle unless the carriage is

in this position. Allow the saw blade to come to a com-

plete stop before removing the workpiece from the saw

table.

2. Arbor nut must be tight and saw blade guard installed in

a horizontal position with anti-kickback device in full up

position.

3. Arm latch handle (knob) must be tight.

4. Work must be held firmly against table and fence. For

workpieces thicker than the fence is high, it is recom-

mended that a higher fence be cut (at least workpiece

thickness) and inserted for that operation being per-

formed. 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. For operations No. 3 and No. 4, observe additional in

struetions under paragraph, "Operating Controls",

"Blade A_gle".

OPERATION NO. 2 -- MITER CROSSCUT

Miter crosscutting is the process of sawing a board at any

angle other than a 90 ° (square) cut. (See figure 37.) The

45" miter angle is a popular one, since two boards cut at

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, and the yoke and bevel settings are

indexed at 0 (and locked), as in square crosscutting. The

board being cut is held firmly against the fence, and the

carriage is pulled forward along the radial arrn 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

workpiece from the 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 ° 1o the saw table (Bee figure 38.) The radial arm

and yoke are indexed at 0 ° and locked, but the bevel _sset

'co the de<,ired angle of cut. The board is held firmly against

the fence, and the carriage is pulled forward along the radial

arm to p_oduce the cut. The carriage should be _eturned to

to a complete stop, before removing the workpiece from

the saw table.

OPERATION NO. 4 -- COMPOUND

CROSSCUT

Compound crosscutting is a combination of miter and bevel

crosscutting. (See figure 39) 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 is 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 the workpiece from

the saw table.

REQUIREMENTS FOR RIPPING

OPERATIONS 5 AND 6

1. Carriage lock knob must be tight.

2. Radial arm must'be locked in 0 ° position.

3. Saw blade must be parallel to fence, to minimize

possibility of kickbacks.

4. Work must be held firmly against table and fence while

feeding through.

5. Guard chute and anti-kickback pawls must be properly

set. Observe instructions under "ADJUSTING GUARD

CHUTE AND ANti-KICKBACK AND SPREADER

ASSEMBLY FOR RIPPING OPERATIONS", preceding.

YOKE

Figure 42

6. Blade should be sharp and correctly set.

7. Hands must be kept wellaway from saw blade.

8. When ripping narrow or short stock, always use a push

board.

OPERATION NO. 5 -- OUT-RIPPING

AND IN-RIPPING

1. Ripping is the process of sawing the workpiece by feed

ing 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

PROPE R LY. ALSO, MAKE SURE THE SAW

BLADE IS PARALLEl WITH THE FENCE. NEVER

RIP WORKPIECES SHORTER THAN THE SAW

BLADE DIAMETER.

2. 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 work-

piece is warped, turn the hollow side down,

3. Always use the saw guard and make sure the spreader is

correctly aligned with the saw kerr. Wood cut with the

grain tends to spring the kerr closed and bind the blade

and a kickback could occur.

4. 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.

Out-Ripping (See figure 41.1 The bevel is indexed and

locked at 0 °. The yoke is turned 90-degrees in a counter-

clockwise direction (viewed from above), from the crosscut

position. When you are standing in front of the saw, the

blade will rotate clockwise. Before positioning the guard

chute and anti kickback pawls, lower the blade to just cut

into the table. After positioning the guard chute and

anti-kickback pawls, the workpiece is fed from the chute

(left-hand) side of the guard, as shown. The "Out Rip"

scale is on the left-hand side of the radial arm,

OPERATION NO. 6 -- BEVEL RIPPING

Bevel ripping is either in-ripping or out-ripping as de_ribed

preceding, except the saw blade is tilted out of perpendicu-

lar to the saw table surface. Figure 42 shows a typical bevel

out-ripping operation. The bevel is set to the desired bevel

angle, and the yoke is positioned for in-ripping or out

ripping, as required. All requirements and observations

applicable to normal ripping operations also apply to bevel

ripping.

safety instructions to operator

1. Be sure to read the following instructions carefully

before operating the saw.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT POWER

CORD UNTIL THE FOLLOWING STEPS

HAVE BEEN SATISFACTORILY COM-

PLETED.

a. Assembly and installation.

b. Examination and operating familiarity with ON-

OFF switch, elevation control, bevel control, rip

control, and miter control.

c. Review and understanding of the operating proce-

dures which follow.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the power when

changing the sat-up, or making adjustments.

Shut off motor before performing layout work

on the saw table. ALWAYS return the carriage

to the full rear position after each crosscut Wpe

operation.

2. The saw should be bolted down.

3. Set carriage lock before moving machine.

4. Position your entire saw (or saw and bench) to slope

slightly rearward, so the carriage will not roll forward

due to gravity.

5. Kickbacks can cause serious injury. A kickback occurs

when a part of the workpiece binds on the saw blade

and the rip fence or other fixed object, rises from the

table, and is thrown toward the operator. Kickbacks

are usually caused by one or more of the following

conditions:

a. Failure to use a spreader when ripping, or failure to

maintain the spreader in alignment with the saw

blade.

b. Improperly conditioned (dull) saw that permits the

material to pinch on the out-feed edge of the saw

and rise from the table.

c, Failure to determine that the rip fence and the saw

blade are parallel to each other.

d. Ripping wood that has a twisted grain, does not

have a straight edge to guide along the fence, or

wood that is twisted or not fiat (which may rock on

the table and pinch the blade).

e. Confining the cut-off piece when ripping.

10.

11.

Ripping by applying the feed force to the section of

the workpiece that will become the cut-off (free)

piece (feed force when ripping should always be

applied between the saw blade and the fence.., use

apush stick for narrow or short work),

g. Releasing workpiece before operation is complete...

not pushing the workpiece all the way past the saw

blade.

NOTE: Injury from kickbacks may be pre-

vented or minimized by:

Avoiding any of the causes noted above...

Making sure (by trial) before starting the cut

that the anti-kickback pawls will stop the kick-

back once it has started...

Keeping your face and body always out of line

of possible kickbacks, including turning the

switch ON and OFF ...

Always wearing safety goggles...

Whenever possible, perform rip, bevel rip, and plough

cuts with the saw in the out-rip position. This provides

the most stable setup (carriage bearings nearest the

column) and the greatest visibility of the sawblade.

The saw should be positioned when ripping so neither

the operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand in

line with the saw blade.

Before starting work, verify that no play exists in the

carriage and that arm, yoke, and bevel locks/clamps are

tight.

Use only accessories that are designed for this machine.

The saw work area should have adequate overhead,

non-glare light and adequate surrounding work space.

A large proportion of saw accidents is caused by dull,

badly set, improperly filed cutting tools, by gum or

resin adhering to cutting tools, and by fence misalign-

ment (out-of-parallel) with the sawblade. Such condi-

tions cause the material to stick, jam, stall the saw, or

kick-back at the operator. Cracked saw blades should

be discarded immediately. A sawblade can become

cracked if it wobbles or if it is not in balance. Never

attempt to free a statled saw blade without turning the

saw "OFF". Avoid potential injury by proper cutting

tool and machine maintenance."

CAUTION: DO NOT cycle the motor switch

ON and OFF rapidly, as this might cause the

saw blade 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 nor-

mally, not excessively.

12. Gloves should not be worn while operating the saw.

Loose flowing garments, jewelry (rings, wrist watches,

etc.} and neckties should never be worn. Long sleeves

should be rolled to above the elbows.

13. Always wear safety goggles to protect the eyes. In addi-

tion. wear a face shield if the operation is dusty, and

ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods

of operation.

14. 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. When ripping short

workpieces (under 12-inches long) or narrow pieces

(under 6-inches wide), use a push stick applied to the

section of the workpiece between the blade and the

fence.

15. Never use a length stop on the free end or edge of the

workpiece. Never hang onto or touch the free end of

workp*ece, or a free piece that is cut off, while power

is "ON" and!or the saw blade is rotating. In short, to

guard against kickbacks or other potential accidents,

the cut-off piece in any thro-sawing operation must

never be confined -- it must be allowed to move laterally.

16. Do not leave a long board unsupported so the spring of

the board causes it to shift on the table. A support

should be used to catch the end of the board you are

supporting.

17. Make sure your fingers do not contact the terminals of

power or motor plugs when installing or removing the

plug to or from a live power source.

18. Never climb on or near the saw when power is on.

Never leave the saw with power on, or before the cut-

ting tool has come to a complete stop. Lock the motor

switch and put away the key when leaving the saw.

19. Avoid awkward hand positions, where a sudden slip

could cause a hand to move into a saw blade or other

cutting tool. Never reach in back of or around the

cutting toot with either hand to hold down the work-

piece.

CAUTION: Never reposition the GUARD

CHUTE or anti-kickback/spreader with power

ON.

20. Always position the GUARD CHUTE and the anti-

kickback and spreader assembly for rip type opera-

tions. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars

and arbor nuts are installed properly. Keep guards in

place; use the proper guard.

21.

22.

Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for

an operating speed in excess of the design speed of the

saw. 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 de-

signed, since under these conditions the spreader is

nearest the blade.

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 ma-

terials including metals, stone, and glass.)

23, Do not position the arm so the operation you are per-

forming permits the cutting tool to extend beyond the

edges of th_e table.

24. Never turn your radial arm 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_

25.

26.

27.

Objects can be thrown upward toward the operator by

the back of the blade if proper operating procedures

are not followed. This usually occurs when a small,

loose piece of wood or other object contacts the rear

of the revolving blade. It can be avoided by removing

all loose pieces from the table immediately after they

are made, using a long stick, and keeping the guard in

place at all times. Use extra caution when the guard

assembly is removed for molding, and replace the guard

as soon as that operation has been completed.

Never perform any operation "free hand". This term

means feeding the carriage into the workpiece or feed-

ing the workpiece into the saw blade or other cutting

tool without using the fence or some other device

which prevents rotation or twisting of the workpiece

during the operation. Never "rip" (cut with the grain)

narrow or long workpieces in the crosscut position...

feeding saw blade into the stationary workpiece. Never

make a miter cut with the arm in the 90 ° crosscut

position.

Safety is a combination of operator common sense and

alertness at all times when the saw is being used.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Even though the finest materials and precision workman-

ship have been incorporated into your Craftsman saw, it is

reasonable to expect some wear after long periods Gf use.

Adjustment facilities have been built into the saw to

compensate for this wear. Looseness due to wear, rough

handling, or improper adjustments will usually be indicated

by reduced accuracy or the inability of the saw to perform

as intended. The usual operating troubles are listed in the

following paragraphs, with the necessary corrections

described and illustrated.

ment should be understood. Figure 44 shows a

sectional view through the column tube sup-

port (looking downward} at the column tube

key location By loosening the left-hand set-

screw and tightening the right-hand setscrew

the column tube key will be forced tighter into

the column tube keyway. Conversely, loosen-

ing the right-hand setscrew and tightening the

left-hand setscrew wilt retract the column key

out of the column tube keyway. The setscrew

in the outer end of the column tube key must

be loosened while adjustment is being made,

and tightened with medium firmness after the

adjustment has been completed. This screw

applies pressure on the nylon friction plug, and

provides smoother elevation movement of the

column tube ... and should be tightened to

provide maximum smoothness of operation.

setscrew.

(6) Tighten the setscrew located in the center of the

column tube key until smoothest operation is

obtained.

2. BLADE DOES NOT MAKE SQUARE CUTS, AND

ACCURATE REPEAT CUTS CANNOT BE MADE

If this condition exists the trouble might be due to any

one, or a combination of, the following conditions:

a. Looseness Between Column Tube and Column Sup-

port.

Adjust as described in preceding paragraph "1", a

and b.

b. Crosscut Travel Not Properly Adjusted.

Refer to "ALIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS", step "4.

Squaring the Crosscut Travel", preceding. If crosscut

travel cannot be adjusted as described, refer to

paragraph "i", following.

c. Table Supports Not Properly Adjusted.

Correct adjustment of table supports can be checked

with satisfactory accuracy, without removing the

table boards, by checking at the various positions on

trouble shooting

the top surface of the table, as described under

"ALIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS", step "2. Adjust-

ing the Table Supports Parallel to the Radial Arm".

d. Saw Blade Not Square With Table.

Adjust as described in paragraph "j", following.

e. Bearings Loose on Tracks.

Adjust carriage bearings as described in paragraph

"k", following.

f. Yoke Does Not Index Properly.

Check for proper yoke indexing by noting whether

the swivel latch pin fits into its detents properly. If

swivei latch-pin housing screws (located under left-

hand carriage cover) are loose, readjust blade for heel

as described in "3. Blade Heels to the Right or Left",

following.

g. Yoke Clamp Does Not Tighten the Yoke When in

Full Rearward Position.

Refe( to paragraph "1", following.

h. Improper Indexing of Radial Arm for Miter Cuts.

Refer to paragraph "Precision Indexing", in the

Operating Controls section.

i. Adjusting the Arm Latch to Correct Crosscut Travel

Maladjustment (Figures 45 and 46).

In some remote cases, due to rough handling, etc.,

the crosscut travel cannot be squared by the usual

method. (Refer to step "4. Squaring the Crosscut

Trave " under "ALIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS".) If

this condition is encountered, it will be necessary to

adjust the arm latch as follows :

screws did not affect the adjustment.

(8) After the crosscut has been accurately squared,

reinstall the radial-arm cap with the two

1/4-28xl-inch screws and 1/4-inch Iockwashers.

Reinstall the radial-arm indicator with its attach-

ing screw tight.

(9) Set the radial-arm scale to 0 °, and tighten the

attaching screws securely.

j. Squaring the Saw Blade to the Table (Figs. 47, 48).

(1) Remove the guard.

(2) Place a framing square on the table with the

short leg against the saw blade as shown in figure

47. Do not allow the square to rest against a

"set-out" tooth; it must rest flat against the

blade side.

with the table top as shown in figure 47.

Then, while holding the square firmly

against the saw blade and table top, apply

moderate force against the lower part of the

saw blade with your thumb, until approxi-

mately 1/32 inch clearance exists between

the square and the lower edge of the blade.

This is to compensate for the possible slight

shifting of the motor while the socket-head

screws are being tightened.

(d) Tighten the four socket-head screws and

replace the bevel lock knob (figure 48). It

may be necessary to perform several trial

operations before the saw blade remains

perfectly square with the table, after tighten

ing the four screws.

(4) After completing this adjustment, set the bevel

indicator to zero.

k, Adjusting Carriage Bearings (Figs. 49 through 52).

To test for looseness between the carriage bearings

and the tracks on the radial arm, lock the yoke-clamp

handle (figure 49), grasp the motor and carriage

assembly firmly with both hands, and apply a firm

rocking motion. If looseness exists, perform the

following steps :

NOTE: Adjustment is made on lefr-hand side, onlyo

(1) Remove left-hand carriage cover (figure 50).

(2) Loosen the two nuts (figure 51) just enough to

permit the two eccentric screws to turn. (See

figure 52.)

(3) Rotate one of the eccentric screws a partial turn

(left or right) as required to take up looseness,

Hold the head of the eccentric screw (figure 51)

m the position established by this method and

t_ghten the nut. Repeat this procedure for the

other eccentric screw. Correct adjustment exists

.vhen there is no play between the carriage and

the radial arm tracks, but the carriage moves

',0ack and forth freely.

(4) Reinstall the left-hand carriage cover (figure 50).

I. Yoke Clamp Handle Adjustment (Figures 53 -56).

The normal locking position of the yoke-clamp

handle (figure 53) is approximately midway between

the two sides of the yoke. When sufficient wear has

occurred to permit the handle to move considerably

to the rear, or to strike the yoke before locking, the

handle may be adjusted as follows:

(1) Loosen the yoke-clamp handle.

(2) Remove the carriage stop screw and Iockwasher

(figure 54} with the 1/4 inch hex-L wrench.

(3}

(4)

(5)

Grasp the motor and carriage assembly and,

holding it parallel to the radial arm until all

bearing rollers are free of their tracks, move it

carefully off the end of the arm.

Rest the motor and carriage assembly on the saw

table and remove the lock screw (figure 55).

Using a screwdriver, rotate the yoke clamp

assembly (figure 56} clockwise until the next

hole will line up with the lock screw. (See figure

55.) Usually, rotating the yoke clamp assembly

one hole will correct this adjustment. However,

in some extreme cases it may be necessary to

rotate it two holes or more.

(6)

(7)

Align, install and tighten the lock screw. (See

figure 55.)

Hold the motor and carriage assembly parallel to

the radial arm and start the rear bearings onto the

tracks. Continue to hold the assembly parallel to

the tracks until the forward bearings are on the

tracks.

18) Slide the carriage rearward on the radial arm and

reinstall the carriage stop screw and Iockwasher

(figure 54).

3. BLADE HEELS TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT

A blade is said to "'heel"whenit is out of alignment with

the direction in which it is forced to travel. Figure 57

shows a saw blade heeling to the right. The result of

even a minor degree of heeling can be detected by the

tooth marks left on the side of the saw kerf (cut edge)

of the board. When using a taper ground blade, even a

small degree of heeling will cause the wood to smoke

because of the frictional heat produced. When ripping,

heeling can cause kickbacks.

a. Evidence of Blade Heel

(1) Crosscutting

Figure 58

(a) Heeling to the right will tend to slide the

workpiece toward the right along the rip

fence, as the cut is being made, and will

make square cutting almost impossible.

(b) Heeling to the left will tend to slide the

board to the left along the fence.

(2) Miter Cutting - Same as for crosscutting, except

to a lesser or greater degree, depending upon the

angle°

(3) In-Ripping

(a) Heeling to the right will force the workpiece

against the rip fence.

(b) Heeling to the teft will force the workpiece

away from the fence.

(4} Out-Ripping - The exact reverse of in-ripping

b. Checking for Blade Heel.

(1) Loosen the guard clamp screw and remove the

g_:ard,

(2) Place asquare against the rip fence and the saw

blade, as shown in figure 58. The long leg of the

square must be held firmly against both the rip

fence and the table top, and the short leg must

not touch any of the teeth on the saw blade.

(3) If the square does not touch the blade at both of

the two points shown in figure 5B, a heel

condition exists (either to the left or right).

e. Adjusting to Eliminate Blade Heel.

(1) Remove the left-hand carriage cover (figure 58).

(2) Loosen the yoke-clamp handle (figure 56).

(3) Loosen (slightly) two hex-head screws (figure

59).

(4) R,_tate the yoke until the gap between the saw

blade and the square is eliminated.

(5) Iock the yoke with the yoke clamp handle, and

[iqhten the two he×-head screws (figure 59).

SCREWS LEFT-

(7) Reinstall the left-hand carriage cover.

4. WOOD SMOKES AND MOTOR SLOWS DOWN OR

STOPS, WHEN RIPPING

This can be caused by the following conditions :

a. A Dull Blade or a Warped Board.

Sharpen or replace the saw blade. Avoid the

attempted use of severely warped material.

b. Crosscut Not Properly Squared.

Adjust as described under "ALIGNMENT INSTRUC-

TIONS", step "4. Squaring the Crosscut Travel".

c. Radial Arm Not Securely Locked in 0 ° Position.

Refer to"PRECISION INDEXING" in the Operating

Controls section.

d. Blade Heels to the Right or Left.

Refer to paragraph "3. Blade Heels to the Right or

Left", preceding.

5. BOARD BINDS, OR PULLS AWAY FROM THE

FENCE, WHEN RIPPING

Refer to "Adjusting Guard Chute and Anti-Kickback

and Spreader Assembly for Ripping Operations" in the

Operating Controls section.

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 the carriage ball bearings or the motor

bearings. These are sealed ball bearings and require no

added lubrication.

Do not lubricate between the radial arm cap and the radial

arm.

trouble shooting - motor

PERIODICALLY LUBRICATE THESE POINTS

Use SAE No. 10W-30 automotive engine oil. Refer to the

Parts Lists for locations, and lightly lubricate the following

points:

1. The rea_ bearing surface of the elevation crank shaft

assembly - and also the two meshed gears through

which this shaft drives the elevation shaft assembly.

There is an oil hole in the bracket at the rear end of the

etevatior, crank shaft, through which the rear bearing

surface can be oiled.

2. The threads of the elevation shaft assembly -- and also

the bottom bearing surface of this shaft where it is held

by the retaining plate. Use the oil hole at the center of

the radial-arm cap.

3. The bevel-latch pin.

4. The bearing surface of the swivel-latch pin in the

latch-pin housing.

5. The face of the column tube and keyway (by wiping

with alightly oiled cloth) to lubricate the surfaces that

bear against the key and the column support assembly,

ICAUTION: Excessive oil at any location will I

attract airborne dust particles and sawdust. I

TROUBLE SHOOTING CHART--MOTOR
