F. To avoid injury from jams, slips or thrown pieces
(kickback and throwback):
1. USE ONLY

"RECOMMENDED

ACCESSO-

RIES" (See page 43). Follow the instructions
that come with the accessories. Using other accessories may be dangerous.
2. Choose the right blade or cutting accessory for
the material and the type of cutting you plan to
do.
3. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off
wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting blades)
wire wheels or buffing wheel. They can fly apart
explosively.
4. Choose and inspect your cutting tool carefully.
a. To avoid cutting toolfailure and thrown shrapnel (broken pieces of blade), use only 10" or
smaller blades or other cutting tools marked
for speeds of 3450 rpm or higher.

B. Dress for safety:
1. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or
jewelry (dngs, wristwatches). They can get
caught and draw you into moving parts.
2. Wear nonslip footwear.
3. Tie back long hair.
4. Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
5. Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible
hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when
using saw for long periods of time.
6. Any power saw. can throw foreign objects into
the eyes.
This can cause permanent eye
damage. Wear safety goggles (not glasses)
that comply with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on package). Everyday eyeglasses have only impact
resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses.
Safety goggles are available at Sears retail
catalog stores. Glasses or goggles not in compliance with ANSI Z87.1 could seriously hurt

b. Always use unbroken, balanced blades
designed to fit this saw's 5/8 inch arbor.
c. When thru-sawing (making cuts where the
blade comes through the workpiece top),
always use a 10 inch diameter blade. This
keeps the spreader in closest to the blade.
d. Do not overtighten arbor nut.
wrenches to "snug" it securely.

Use arbor

e. Use only sharpbladeswith properly set teeth.
Consult a professional blade sharpenerwhen
in doubt.
f. Keep blades clean of gum and resin.
5. Adjust table inserts flush with the table top.
NEVER use the saw without the proper insert.
6. Make sure all clamps and locks are tight and no
parts have any excessive play.
2. Keep work area clean
A. Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.
Floor must not be slippery from wax or sawdust.
B. To avoid burns or other fire damage, never use the
saw near flammable liquids, vapors or gases.
C. To avoid injury, don't do layout, assembly, or setup
work on the table while the blade is spinning. It
could cut or throw anything hitting the blade.
Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands,face, ears.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING - Make sure
switch is "OFF" before plugging saw in.
3. Plan your work
A. USE THE RIGHT TOOL - Don't force toot or
attachmentto do a job it was not designed for.

7. For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along
with the safety goggles.
C. Inspect your workpiece. Make sure there are no
nails or foreign objects in the part of the workplece
to be cut.
D. Plan your cut to avoid KICKBACKS and THROWBACKS - when a part or all of the workpiece binds
on the blade and is thrown violently back toward
the front of the saw.
1. Never cut FREEHAND:
Always use either a
Rip Fence, Miter Gauge or fixture to position
and guide the work, so itwon't twist, bind on the
blade and kickback.
2. Make sure there's no debris between 1ne workpiece and its supports.
3. When cutting Irregularly shaped workpieces,
plan your work so it will not slip and pinch the
blade:
a. A piece of molding, for example, must lie flat
or be held by a fixture or jig that wiU not let it
twist, rock or slip while being cut. Use jigs or
fixtures where needed to prevent workpiece
shifting.
b. Use a different, better suited type of toot for
work that can't be made stable.

or vibrates a lot, stop immediately. Turn the saw off.
Unplug the saw. Do not restart until finding and fixing
the problem.

4. Use extra caution with large,, very small or

awkwardworkpisces.
a. Use extra supports(tables, sawhorses,block,
etc.) for any workpieces large enough to tip
when not hell down to thetable top. NEVER
uSe another person as a substitute for a
table extension, or as additional support for a
workpiece that is longer or wider than the
basic saw table, orto help feed, support or
pull the workpisce.

2. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool turns
toward the front of the saw.
3. Set the cutting tool as low as possible for the cut
you're planning.
4. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept
a safe distance from work. Make sure bystanders are
clear of the saw and workplece.

b. Never confine the piece being cut off, that is,
the piece NOT againstthe fence, mitergauge
or fixture. Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or
use length stops against it. It must be free to
move. Ifconfined, itcould getwedged against
the blade and cause a kickback or throwback.

5. Let the blade reach full speed before cutting.
6. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better and
safer at its designed rate. Feed the workpiece intothe
blade only fast enough to let it cut without bogging
down or binding.
7. Before treeing any jammed material
A. Turn switch "OFF".

c. Never cut morethan one workpiece at a time.

B. Unplug the saw.

d. Never turn your table saw"ON" before clearing everything except the workpiece and

ADDITIONAL

FOR

RIPTYPE CUTS

Always keep good footing

1. NEVER use the Miter Gauge when ripping.
2. Use a Push Stick whenever the fence is 2 or more
inches from the blade. When thru-sawing, use an
Auxiliary Fence and Push Blockwhenever the Fence
mustbebetween 1/2 and 2 inchesof the blade. Never
thru-saw rip cuts narrower than 1/2 inch. (See =BASIC SAW OPERATION - USING THE RIP FENCE"
section.)

F. Push the workpisce against the rotation of the
blade. NEVER feed material into the cutting tool
from the rear of the saw.
G. Always push the workpiece all the way past the
sawblade.
H. As much as possible,keep your face and body to
one skJeof the sawblade, outof line with a possible
kickback or throwback.

3. Never rip anything shorter than 10" long.
4. When using a Push Stick or Push Block, the trailing
end of the beard must be square. A Push Stick or
Blockagainst an uneven end could slip off or push the
work away from the Fence.
5. A FEATHERBOARD can help guide the workpiece.
See "BASIC SAW OPERATION - USING THE RIP
FENCE." Always use Featherboards for any non
thru rip type cuts.

I. NEVERtum the saw =ON" before cieadng the table

BEFORE STARTING
1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make
sure the Rip Fence is parallel to the sawblade.
2. Check the anti-kickback pawls. (See "BASIC SAW
OPERATION - USING THE RIP FENCE.")
The
Pawls must stop a kickback once it has started.
Replace or sharpen Anti-Kickback Pawls when points
become dull.
3. 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 careful in your set-up and cutting procedures.
WHILE CUTTING
1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, always
pushforward on the section of the workpiece between
the saw blade and the Rip Fence. Neverpushforward
on the piece being cut off.
ADDITIONAL

CROSSCUT

iNSTRUCTiONS

FOR

TYPE CUTS

BEFORE STARTING
1. NEVER use the Rip Fence when crosscutting.

2. An auxiliary wood facing attached to the Miter Gauge
can help prevent workpiece twisting and throwbacks.
Attach it to the holes provided. Make the facing long
enough and big enough to support your worK. Make
sure, however, it will not interfere with the Sawblade
Guard. (See page 26)
3. Use jigs or fixtures to help hold any piece too small to
extend across the full length of the Miter Gauge face
during the cut. This lets you properly hold the Miter
Gauge and workpiece and helps keep your hands
away from the blade.
WHILE CUTTING
1. To avoid blade contact, always hold the Miter Gauge
as shown in the "BASIC SAW OPERATIONS - USING THE MITER GAUGE."
BEFORE LEAVING THE SAW
1. Turn the saw off.
.

Wait for blade to stop spinning.

3. Make workshop child-proof. Lock the shop. Disconnect master switches. Remove the yellow Switch
Key. Store it away from children and others not
qualified to use the tool.
4. Unplug the saw.

D. Use the Sawblade Guard, Spreader, and AntiKickback Pawls for any thru-sawing (wheneverthe
blade comes through the top of the workpiece).
Makesurethe Pawlsworkpmperly. Makesurethe
Spreader is in line with the sawblade.
E. REMOVE ADJ USTING KEYS AND WRENCHES.
Form habit of checking forand removing keys and
adjusting wrenches from tool before turning it on.

Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face, ears.
3. Plan your work
A. USE THE RIGHT TOOL - Don't force tool or
attachment to do a job it was not designed for.
B. Dress for safety:
1. Do not wearloose clothing, gloves, neckties or
jewelry (rings, wristwatches). They can get
caught and draw you into moving parts.
2. VVear nonslip footwear.

F. To avoid injury from jams, slips or thrown pieces
(kickback and throwback):
1. USEONLY RECOMMENDEDACCESSORIES
(See page 40). Follow the instructions that
come with the accessories. Using other accessories may be dangerous.

3. Tie back long hair.
4. Roll long sleeves above the elbow.
5. Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible
hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs when
using saw for long periods of time.

2. Choose the right blade or cutting accessory for
the material and the type of cutting you plan to
do.

6. Any power saw can throw foreign objects into
the eyes. This can cause permanent eye damage. Wear safety goggles (not glasses) that
........
ANSI Z87.1 (shown on package).
Everyday eyeglasses have only impact resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses. Safety
goggles are available at Sears retail catalog
stores. Glasses or goggles not in compliance
with ANSI Z87.1 could seriously hurt you when
they break.

3. Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off
wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting blades)
wire wheels or buflingwheel. They can fly apart
explosively.
4. Choose and inspect your cutting tool carefully.
a. To avoid cutting tool failure andt hrown shrapnel (broken pieces of blade), use only 10" or
smaller blades or othercutting tools marked
for speeds of 3450 rpm or higher.
b. Always use unbroken, balanced blades designed to fit this saw's 5/8 inch arbor.
c. When thru-sawing (making cuts where the
blade comes through the workpiece top),
always use a 10 inch diameter blade. This
keeps the Spreader in closest to the blade.
d. Do not overtighten arbor nut. Use arbor
wrenches to "snug" itsecureiy.
e. Use onlysharp blades withpropedy setteeth ....
Consult a professional bladesharpenerwhen
in doubt.
f. Keep blades clean of gum and resin.

D.PlanyourcuttoavoidKICKBACKS
andTHROWBACKS - when a part or all of the workpiece binds
on the blade and is thrown violently back toward
the front of the saw.

F. Push the workpiece against the rotation of the
blade. NEVER feed materiat into the cutting tool
from the rear of the saw.
G.Always push the workpiece all the way past the
sawblade.

1. Never cut FREEHAND: Always use either a
Rip Fence, Miter Gauge or fixture to position
and guide the work, so it won't twist, bind on the
blade and kickback.

H. As much as possible, keep your face and body to
one side of the sawblade, out of linewith a possible
kickback or throwback.

2. Make sure there's no debris between the workpiece and its supports.

WHENEVER

SAW BLADE iS SPiNNiNG

WARNING: Do,'t let familiarity (gained from frequent use of your table saw) cause s careless
mistake. AJways remember that • careless fraction of a second is enough to cause a severe
injury.

3. Whencutting irregularly shaped workpleces,
plan your work so it will not slip and pinch the
blade:
a. A piece of molding, for example, must fieflat
or be held by a fixture or jig that will not let it
twist, rock or slipwhile being cut. Use jigs or
fixtures where needed to prevent workpiece
shifting.

1. Before actuafly cutting with the saw, watch it while it
runs for a short while. If it makes an unfamiliar noise
or vibrates a lot, stop immediately. Turn the saw off.
Unplug the saw. Do not restart until finding and fixing
the problem.

b. Use a different, better suited type of tool for
work that can't be made stable.

2. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool turns
toward the front of the saw.

4. Use extra caution with large, very small or
awkward workpieces:

3. Set the cutting tool as low as possible for the cut
you're planning.
4. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept
a safe distance from work. Make sure bystanders are
clear of the saw and workpiece.

a. Use extra supports (tables, saw horses,
blocks, etc.) for anyworkpieces large enough
to tip when not held down to the table top.
NEVER use another person as a substitute
for a Table Extension, or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer or wider
than the basic saw table, or to help feed,
support or pull the workpiece.

b. Neverconfinethe piece being cutoff. That is,
the pieceNOTagainstthe Fence, Miter Gauge
or fixture. Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or
use length stops against it. It must be free to
move. Ifconfined, itcouldgetwodgedagainst
the blade and cause a kickback or throwback.

7. Before freeing any jammed materiah
A. Turn switch '_FF".
B. Unplug the saw.
C. Wail for aft moving parts to stop.
D. Check blade, Spreader and Fence for proper alignment before starting, again.

c. Never cut more than one workpiece at a tirne.
d. NEVER turn the saw "ON" before clearing
the table or all tools, wood scraps, etc.,
except the workpiece and related feed or
support devices for the cut planned.
4. Plan the way you will push theworkpiece through

8. To avoid throwback of cut off pieces;
A. Use the Guard Assembly.
B. To remove loose pieces beneath or trapped inside
the Guard:
1. Turn saw "OFF".

A. NEVER pug the worlkp|ece through. Start and
finish the cut from the front of the table saw.

2. Remove Switch Key.

B. NEVER put your fingers or hands in the path of
the sawblade or other cutting tool.

3. Wait for blade to stop before lifting the Guard.

BEFORE

C. NEVER reach In back of the cutting toolwith either
hand to hold-down or support the workpiece, remove wood scraps, or for any other reason.

LEAVING

THE SAW

1. Turn the saw off.
2. Wait for blade to stop spinning.
3, Make workshop child-proof. Lock the shop. Disconnect master switches. Remove the yellow Switch
Key. Store it away from children and others not
qualified to use the tool.
4. Unplug the saw.

D. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions
where a sudden slipcould cause tinge rs or hand to
move into a sawblade or other cutting tool.
E. DONT OVERREACH. Always keep good footing
and balance.

V_tlle

Before Starting:

Cutting:

1. To avoid blade contact, always hold the Miter Gauge
as shown in the "BASIC SAW OPERATIONS - USiNG THE MITER GAUGE."

1. Never use the Rip Fence when crosscutting.

CROSSCUTTING

Crosscut- A cutting or shaping operation made across
the width of the workpiece.
The graduations on the Miter Gauge provide accuracy
for average woodworking. In some cases where extreme accuracy is required, when making angle cuts, for
example, make a trial cut and then re-check it with an
accurate square, or protractor.
If necessary, the Miter Gauge head can be swiveled
slightlyto compensate for any inaccuracy.

_DPAPER

NOTE: The space between the Miter Gauge Bar andthe
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, don1 move the Miter Gauge from side to
side while cutting, but keep one side of the bar riding
against one side of the groove.

WARNING:
To avoid blade contact or kickback,
hold the Miter Gauge properly.

NOTE: Glue a piece of sandpaperto the face of the Miter
Gauge head. This will help prevent the workpiece from
"creeping" while it is being cut.

When using the Miter Gauge in the LEFT hand groove,

Before starting:

ADDITIONAL

1. NEVER use the Miter Gauge when ripping.

2. Check the Anti-Kickback Pawls. The Pawls must
stop a kickback once it has started. Replace or
sharpen Anti-Kickback Pawls when points become
dull,

2. Use a Push Stick whenever the fence is 2 or more
inches from the blade. When thru-sawing, use an
Auxiliary Fence and Push Blockwhenever the Fence
must be between 1/2 inch and 2 inches of the blade.
Never thru-saw ripcuts lessthan 1/2 inchwide.

3. 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 careful in your set-up and cutting procedures.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR

RiP TYPE CUTS

1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make
sure the Rip Fence is parallel to the sawblade.

While cutting:

3. When using a Push Stick or Push Block, the trailing
end of the board must be square. A Push Stick or
Block against an uneven end could slipoffor push the

RIPPING
Ripping - A cutting or shaping operation along the
length of the workpiece.
Positionthe Fence to the desired WIDTH OF RIP and
lock in place.
Before starting to dp, be sure:
1. Rip Fence is parallel to sawblade:
2. Spreader is properly aligned with sawblade.
3. Anti-Kickback Pawls are functioning properly.
When ripping LONG BOARDS or LARGE PANELS,
always use a work support.
A simple one can be made by clamping a piece of
plywood to a sawhorse.

1. Remove Blade Guard.
2. For rabbeting along an edge (long way of workpiece) as shown, add facing to Rip Fence approximately as high as the workpiece is wide. Adjust Rip
Fence and blade to required dimensions; then make
first cut with board flat on table as any rip(type) cut;
make second cut with workpiece on edge. Follow all
precautions, safety instructions, and operational instructions as for ripping, or rip type operations, including Featherboards and Push Stick, etc.

RABBL_'ING ALONG
