saw in a dry place protected from r'ain..Keep work
area well lighted,
2_To avoid injury from unexpected saw movement:
aPut the saw on a firm level surface where there
is plenty of room for handling and properly
supporting the workpiece..
b, Support the saw so the table is level and the
saw does not rock.
c. Bott the saw to the floor if it tends to slip, walk,
or slide during normal use_
d_ When using table extensions over 24" wide on
any side of the saw, bolt the saw to the floor or
prop up the outer' end of the extension from
the floor' to keep the saw from tipping.
3. Put the saw where neither operators or bystand-
ers must stand in line with the saw blade_
4GROUND THE SAW - This saw has an approved
3-conductor cord and a 3-prong grounding type
plug, The plug fits grounding type outlets design-
5 To avoid injury from electrical shock, make sure
your fingers do not ,DUCt1the plug's metal prongs
when plugging in or' unplugging the saw..
6. To avoid back injury, get help or use recom-
mended casters when you need to move the saw.
Always get help if you need to lift the saw, Hold
the saw close to your body Bend your knees so
you can lift with your legs, not your back.
7. NEVER STAND ON TOOL Serious injury could
occur if the tool tips or you accidentally hit the
cutting tool Do not store anything above or near'
the tool where anyone might stand on the tool to
reach them
BEFORE EACH USE:
1 Inspect your saw
a To avoid injury from accidental starting, unplug
the saw, turn the switch off and remove the
switch key before raising or removing the
guard, changing the cutting tool, changing
the setup or adjusting anything
b. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions that may affect the
way it works If any part is missing, bent, or'
broken in any way, or arty electrical parts don't
work properly, turn the saw off and unplug the
saw,
c. Replace damaged, missing, or failed parts
before using the saw again
d. Use the sawblade guard, spreader, and anti-
kickback pawls for any thru-sawing (wher]ever
the blade comes through the top of the work-
piece). Make sure the pawls work properly.
Make sure the spreader is in line with the
sawblade.
e_REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES Form habit of checking for and
removing keys and adjusting wrenches from
tool before turning it on.
f. To avoid injury from jams, slips or thrown pieces
(kickback and throwback):
1. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSO*
RIES° Follow the instructions that come with
the accessories Consult the owner's manual
for recommended accessories. The use of
improper accessories may cause risk of injury
to persons.
2
2. Choose the right blade orcutting 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 care-
fully.
a To avoid cutting tool failure 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. Always use unbroken, balanced blades
designed to fit this saw's 518" 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" it securely,
e. Use only sharp blades with properly set
teeth Consult a professional bladesharp-
ener when 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
Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face,
ears
a.. 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.
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING - Make sure
switch is "OFF" before plugging saw in
Plan your work
1 USE THE RIGHT TOOL - Don't force toot or
attachment to do a job it was not designed for..
2 Dress for safety:
- Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties
or jewelry (rings, wrist watches). They can get
caught and draw you into moving parts,
- Wear nonslip footwear
- Tie back long hair.
- Roll long sleeves above the elbow
- Noise levels vary widely. To avoid possible
hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs
when using saw for long periods of time
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 pack-
age).. 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
WEAR YOUR
- For dusty operations, wear a dust mask along
with the safety goggles
3 Inspect your workpiece.. Make sure there are no
nails or foreign objects in the part of the work-
piece to be cut.
4. Plan your cut to avoid KICKBACKS and THROW-
BACKS - when a part or all of the workpiece
binds on the blade and is thrown violently back
toward the front of the saw:
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
Make sure there's no debris between the
workpiece and its supports
When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces,
plan your work so it will not slip and pinch the
blade:
- A piece of molding, for example, must lie
flat or be held by a fixture or jig that will not
let it twist, rock or slip while being cut.. Use
jigs, fixtures where needed to prevent work-
piece shifting
- Use a different, better suited type of tool for
work that can't be made stable.
- Use extra caution with large, very small or
awkward workpieces:
-Use extra supports (tables, saw horses,
blocks, etc..) for any workpieces 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 addi-
tional support for a workpiece that is longer
or wider then the basic saw table, or to help
feed, support or pull the workpiece.
- Never confine the piece being cut off That
is, the piece NOT against the fence, miter
gauge or fixture. Never hold it, clamp it,
touch it, or use length stops against it. It
must be free to move If confined, it could
get wedged against the blade and cause a
kickback or throwback
- Nevercut morethan one workpieceat a
time
-Never turn your table saw "ON" before
clearingeverythingexceptthe workpiece
andrelatedsupportdevicesoff thetable.
Plan the way you will push the workpiece through.
-NEVER pull the workpiece through Start and
finish the cut from the front of the table saw.
-NEVER put your fingers or hands in the path of
the sawblade or other cutting tool..
-NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with
either hand to hold down or support the work-
piece, remove wood scraps, or for any other
reason..
- Avoid hand positions where a sudden slip could
cause fingers or hand to move into a sawblade or
other cutting too!
- DON'T OVERREACH Always keep good footing
and balance
- Push the workpiece against the rotation of the
blade NEVER feed material into the cutting tool
from the rear' of the saw.
- Always push the workpiece all the way past the
sawblade
- As much as possible, keep your face and body to
one side of the sawblade, out of line with a
possible kickback or throwback.
- 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 cut planned
WHENEVER SAW IS RUNNING
WARNING: Don't let familiarity (gained from fre-
quent use of your table saw) cause a careless mis-
take. Always remember that a careless fraction of a
second is enough to cause a severe injury.
1 Before actually cutting with the saw, watch it
while it runs for a short while, if it makes an
unfamiliar noise or vibrates a tot, stop immedi-
ately. Turn the saw off. Unplug the saw Do not
restart until finding and fixing the problem
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 workpiece
5 Let the blade reach full speed before cutting
6. DON'T FORCE TOOL. tt will do the job better
and safer at its designed rate.. Feed the workpiece
into the blade only fast enough to let it cut
without bogging down or binding
7. Before freeing any jammed material:
a Turn switch "OFF"..
b Unplug the saw
c Wait for all moving parts to stop
d Check blade, spreader and fence for proper
alignment before starting, again..
8 To avoid throwback of small, cut off pieces:
a Use the guard assembly
b To remove pieces trapped inside the guard:
1 Turn saw off
2.. Remove switch key
3 Unplug saw
4. Wait for blade to stop before lifting the
guard
additional instructions for
RiP TYPE CUTS
- NEVER use the miter gauge when ripping
- Use a push stick whenever the fence is 2 to 6
inches from the blade Use an auxiliary fence and
push block whenever' the fence must be within 2
inches of the blade. (See "Basic Saw Operation
Using The Rip Fence" section)
- Never-rip anything shorter than 10" long
-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 slip
off or push the work away from the fence..
- A FEATHERBOARD can help guide the work-
piece. See BAStC SAW OPERATION - USING
THE RIP FENCE. Always use featherboards for
any non-thru rip type cuts.
_,____i___24" _I
5/I 6" APART
4-1/2""_ _-_
Before Starting
-To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade,
make sure the rip fence is paratlel to the sawblade
Check the antikickback pawls. (See BASIC SAW
OPERATION - USING THE RIP FENCE) The
pawls must stop a kickback once it has started,
Replace or sharpen antikickback pawls when
points become dull.
- Plastic and composition (like hardboard) mater-
ials may be cut on your saw However, since
these are usually quite hard and slippery, the
antikickback pawls may not stop a kickback,
Therefore, be especially careful in your set-up
and cutting procedures..
While cutting
-To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade,
always push forward on the section of the work-
piece between the saw blade and the rip fence
Never push forward on the piece being cut off
additional instructions for
CROSS CUT TYPE CUTS
Before starting
- NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting
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 sawbtade guard.
-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
- To avoid blade contact, always hold the miter
gauge as shown in the BASIC SAW OPERA-
TIONS - USING THE MITER GAUGE
BEFORE LEAVING THE SAW
1. Turn the saw off
2. Wait for blade to stop spinning
3. Make workshop child-proof Lock the shop. Dis-
connect master switches. Remove the yellow
switch key. Store it away from children and
others not qualified to use the tool
4 Unplug the saw.

BASIC SAW OPERATION
WORK HELPERS
Before cutting any wood on your saw, study all of the
"Basic Saw Operations"
Notice that in order to make some of the cuts, it is
necessary to use certain devices "Work Helpers" like
the Push Stick, the Push Block and the Auxiliary
Fence/Work Support, which you can make yourself.
After you have made a few practice cuts, make up
these "helpers" before starting any projects Make
the "Push Stick" first

SAFETY BNSTRUCTaONS FOR BASIC SAW OPERATRONS
BEFORE EACH USE:
1 inspect your saw
a. To avoid injury from accidental starting, unplug
the saw, turn the switch off and remove the
switch key before raising or removing the
guard, changing the cutting toot, changing
the setup or adjusting anything
b,,Check for alignment of moving parts, binding
of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions that may affect the
way it works If any part is missing, bent, or
broken in any way, or any electrical parts don't
work properly, turn the saw off and unplug the
saw.
c
d
Reptace damaged, missing, or failed parts
before using the saw again.
Use the sawblade guard, spreader, and anti-
kickback pawls for any thru-sawing (whenever
the blade comes through the top of the work-
piece). Make sure the pawls work properly
Make sure the spreader is in line with the
sawblade
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES Form habit of checking for and
removing keys and adjusting wrenches from
tool before turning it on
To avoid injury from jams, slips or thrown
pieces (kickback and throwback):
1. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSO-
RIES (See page 42) _Follow the instructions
that come with the accessofie& Using other
accessories may be dangerou&
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
wife wheels or buffing wheel. They can fly
apart explosively.
26
i
!'
4 Choose and inspect your cutting tool care-
fully
a To avoid cutting tool,failure 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 Always use unbroken, balanced blades
designed to fit this saw's 5/8" 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" it securely.
e Use only sharp blades with properly set
teeth Consult a professional blade
sharpener when 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.
Plan ahead to protect your eyes, hands, face, ears.
a. To avoid injury from accidental blade contact,
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
AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING - Make sure switch
is in "OFF" position before plugging saw in
Plan your work
1 USE THE RIGHT TOOL - Don't force tool or
attachment to do a job it was not designed for
2. Dress for safety:
Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties
or jewelry (rings, wrist watches) They can get
caught and draw you into moving parts
° Wear nonstip footwear
- Tie back tong hair.
- Roll tong sleeves above the elbow.
- Noise levels vary widely To avoid possible
hearing damage, wear ear plugs or muffs
when using saw for long periods of time,
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 pack-
age) 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.
WEAR YOUR
- For dusty operatio6s, wear a dust mask along
with the safety goggles
3 inspect your workpiece Make sure there are no
nails or foreign objects in the part of the work-
piece to be cut,
4 Plan your cut to avoid KICKBACKS and THROW-
BACKS -when a part or alf of the workpiece
binds on the blade and is thrown violently back
toward the front of the saw:
- 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 kic,kback
-Make sure there's no debris between the
workpiece and its supports
- When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces,
plan your work so it will not slip and pinch the
blade,,
- A piece of molding, for example, must lie
flat or be held by a fixture or jig that will not
let it twist, rock or slip while being cut., Use
jigs, fixtures where needed to prevent work-
piece shifting,
- Use a different, bettersuited type of tool for
work that can't be made stable
-Use extra caution with large, very small or
awkward workpieces:
-Use extra supports (tables, saw horses,
blocks, etc) for any workpieces Iarge
enough to tip when not held down ot the
table top, NEVER use another person as a
substitute for a table extension, or as addi-
tional support for a workpiece that is longer
or wider then the basic saw table, or to help
feed, support or pull the workpiece
27
- Never confine the piece being cut off That
is, the piece NOT against the fence, miter
gauge or fixture. Never hold it, clamp it,
touch it, or use length stops against it. It
must be free to move. If confined, it could
get wedged against the blade and cause a
kickback or throwback..
-Neve_ cut more than one workpiece at a
time..
-Never turn your table saw "ON" before
clearing everything except the workpiece
and related support devices off the table.
Plan the way you will push the workpiece through.
- NEVER pull the workpiece through Start and
finished the cut from the fron of the tabet saw
-NEVER put your fingers or hands in the path of
the sawblade or other cutting tool.
- NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with
either hand to hold down or support the work-
piece, 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
- DON'T OVERREACH. Always keep good footing
and balance.
- Push the workpiece against the rotation of the
blade., NEVER feed material into the cutting tool
from the rear of the saw.
- Always push the workpiece all the way past the
sawblade.
- As much as possible, keep your face and body to
one side of the sawblade, out of line with a
possible kickback or throwback;
-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 cut planned
WHENEVER SAW IS RUNNING
WARNING: Don't let familiarity (gained from fre o
quent use of your table saw) cause a careless mis-
take. Always remember that a careless fraction of a
second is enough to cause a severe injury.
1 Before actually cutting with the saw, watch it
while it runs for a short while, If it makes an
unfamiliar noise or vibrates excessively, stop
immediately Turn the saw off. Unplug the saw
Do not restart until finding and correcting the
problem
2 Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool
turns toward the front of the saw.
3 Set the cutting tool as tow as possible for othe 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
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
into the blade only fast enough to let it cut
without bogging down or binding.
7 Before freeing any jammed material:
a Turn switch "OFF".
b Unplug the saw.
c. Wait for all moving parts to stop.
d Check blade, spreader and fence for proper
alignment before starting, again
8. To avoid throwback of small, cut off pieces:
a Use the guard assembly
b..To remove pieces trapped inside the guard:
t Turn saw off..
2 Remove switch key.
3. Unplug saw
4. Wait for blade to stop before lifting the
guard
BEFORE LEAVING THE SAW
1 Turn saw off
2. Wait for blade to stop spinning
3. Make workshop child-proof. Lock the shop, Dis-
connect master switches. Remove the yellow
switch key. Store it away from children and
others not qualified to use the tool.
4. Unplug the saw.

USING THE MITER GAUGE
The MITER GAUGE is used when CROSSCUTTING,
MITER CUTTING, BEVEL CUTTING, COMPOUND
MITER CUTTING, DADOING andwhen RABBETTING
AND MOLDING across the end ol a narrow workpiece.
WARNING: For you rown safety, always observe the
following safety precautions in additio n to the safety
instructions on pages 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 26, 27, and 28.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR CROSS CUT TYPE CUTS
Before starting
- NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting
- 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
- Use jigs or fixtures to help hold any piece too
small to extend across the fulf length of the miter
gauge face during the cut This lets you properly
hoid the miter gauge and workpiece and helps
keep your hands away from the blade
While cutting
-To avoid blade contact, always hold the miter
gauge as shown in the BASIC SAW OPERA-
TIONS - USING THE MITER GAUGE
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
recheck it with an accurate square, or protractor
If necessary, the miter gauge head can be swiveled
slightly to compensate for any inaccuracy
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 gauge
from side to side while cutting, but keep one side of
the bar riding against one side of the groove
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
The Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory)
should be used on the miter gauge for greater
acc u racy
The miter gauge may be used in either of the
grooves in the table, Make sure it is locked
WARNING: To avoid blade con;tact, hold the miter
gauge properly°
When using the miter gauge in the LEFT hand
groove, hold the workpiece firmly against the miter
gauge head with your left hand, and grip the lock
handle with your right
When using the RIGHT Hand groove, hold the
workpiece with your right hand and the iockhandfe
with your left hand
When cutting long workpieces, insert AUXILIARY
FENCE/WORK SUPPORT and position it on top of the
guide bars to support the workpiece as near to the end
as possible. If this does not adequately support the
workpiece, you can make a simple support by clamping
a piece of plywood to a sawhorse. See first illustration
under "Crosscutting".

REPETITIVE CUTTING
REPETITIVE CUTTING is known as cutting a
quantity of pieces the same length without having to
mark each piece,
t Use the Stop Rods (optional accessory) only for
cutting duplicate pieces 6 in, long and longer
2. Follow all safety precautions and operational
instructions for cross cutting
When making repetitive cuts from a long workpiece,
make sure it is adequately supported
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on
the miter gauge for greater-accuracy.
\
i. NEVER USE THE RIP FENCE AS A LENGTH STOP
BECAUSE THE CUT OFF PIECE COULD BIND
BETWEEN THE FENCE AND THE BLADE CAUS-
ING A KICKBACK
2 When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 in., clamp
a block ol wood 2 in long to the table to act as a length
stop.. Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the
table because the swivel of the clamp will not grip
properly Place a small blcok of wood between the
bottom edge of the table and the "C" clamp.,
CAUTION: When clamping the block, make sure
that tile end of the block is well in front of the
sawblade. Be sure it is clamped securely.

it
The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves
in the table.
When using the miter gauge in the LEFT hand
groove, hold the workpiece firmly against the miter
gauge he_id with your left hand, and grip the lock
handle with your right,
When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the
workpiece with your right hand and the knob with

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING
BEVEL CROSSCUTTfNG is the same as crosscutting
except that the wood is also cut at an angle other
than 90° with the flat side of the wood
Adjust the blade to the desired angle.
Use the Miter Gauge in the groove to the RIGHT of
the blade It cannot be used in the groove to the
LEFT because the blade guard wilt interfere, Hold
the workpiece with your right hand and the lock-
handle with your left hand
Use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT for
additional support of the workpiece
Lay it across the guide bars to support the workpiece
as near to the end as possible.
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on
the miter gauge for greater accuracy_
COMPOUND MITER CUTTING
COMPOUND MITER CUTTING is a combination of
miter cutting and bevel crosscutting, The cut is
made at an angle other than 90° to both the edge and
the flat side of the wood,
Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired
angle ,, Make sure miter gauge is locked
USUNG THE RIP FENCE
RIPPING, BEVEL RIPPING, PLOUGHING, MOLDING,
RESAWING AND RABBETTING are performed using
the RlP FENCE together with the AUXILIARY FENCE/
WORK SUPPORT, PUSH STICK OR PUSH BLOCK°
WARNING: Make sure the featherboard against the
edge presses only on the uncut portion (forward of
the blade). It might otherwise pinchthe blade in the
kerf and cause a kickback.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR RIP TYPE CUTS
- NEVER use the miter gauge when ripping
- Use a push stick whenever the fence is 2 to 6
inches from the blade, Use an auxiliary fence and
_push block whenever the fence must be within 2
inches of the blade.. (See "Basic Saw Operation
Using The Rip Fence" section..)
-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 slip
off or push the work away from the fence.
- Never rip anything shorter than 10" long.
Before starting
-To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade,
make su re the rip fence is parallel to the sawblade
- Check the antikickback pawls (See BASIC SAW
OPERATION - USING THE RIP FENCE.) The
pawls must stop a kickback once it has started
Replace or sharpen antikickback pawls when
points become dull
-Plastic and composition (like hardboard)
materials may be cut on your saw However,
since these are usually quite hard and slippery,
the aptikickback pawls may not stop a kickback
Therefore, be especially careful in your set-up
and cutting procedures
While cutting
-To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade,
always push forward on the section of the work-
piece between the saw blade and the rip fence
Never push forward on the piece being cut off

RiPPiNG
Ripping
A cutting operation along J.helength of the workpiece..
Position the fence to the desired WIDTH OF RiP and
lock in place
Before starting to rip, be sure
A Rip Fence is parallel to sawblade
B Spreader is properly aligned with sawblade
C Antikickback pawls are functioning property=
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
BEVEL RIPPING NARROW WORK
When bevel ripping material 6 in.. or narrower, use
fence on the right side of the blade 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 proper use of a push stick
ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES
USING FEATHERBOARDS FOR
THRU-SAWING
Featherboards are not employed for thru-sawing
operations when using the miter gauge.
Featherboards are used to keep the work in contact
with the fence and table as shown, and to help stop
kickbacks.
Add 7-1/2 inch high flat facing board to the fence,
the fult length of the fence
Mount featherboards to fence and table as shown,
so that leading edges of featherboards will support
workpiece
WARNING: Make sure the featherboard against the
edge presses only on the uncut portion (forward of
the blade). It might otherwise pinch the blade in the
kerf and cause a kickback.
Before starting the operation (switch "OFF" and
cutter below table surface):
(a) Install featherboards so they exert pressure on
the workpiece; be positive they are secure, and
(b) Make sure by trial that the featherboards wilt
stop a kickback if one should occur.

RABBETING
RABBETING is known as cutting out a section of the
corner of a piece of material, across an end or along
an edge,
To make a RABBET requires cuts which do not go al!
the way through the material Therefore the blade
guard must be removed
1 Remove blade guard.
2For rabbeting along an edge (long way of work-
piece) as shown, add facing to rip fence approxi-
mately 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 afl precautions, safety instructions,
and operational instructions as for ripping, or rip
type operations, including feather boards and
push stick, etc.
3 For rabbeting across an end, for workpiece 10-
1/2" and narrower make the rabbet cut with the
board flat on the table. Using the miter gauge
fitted with a facing, follow the same procedures
and instructions for cross cutting making succes-
sive cuts across the width of the workpiece to

making angle cuts, for example, make atrial cut and
then recheck it
if necessary, the miter gauge head can be swiveled
slightly to compensate for any inaccuracy.
1.. Loosen the "knob" and pull "stop pin" OUT.
2. Swivel the head position it at "0". push the
stop pin IN. . lock the handle..
3..The HEAD should be square with the Bar and the
pointer should point to "0".. Readjust the pointer
if necessary
4 If the head is not square with the bar, adjustments
are required
A Loosen the "knob" (1) and the "two screws"
(2).
B. Position the HEAD square with the BAR using
a combination square
C PUSH the STOP PIN into theslot in the head at
"0 ...... push the pin into the slot and twist it
Lock the knob.
D. Recheck with the square, lfthe head is still not
square, loosen the screws (2) and readjust the
INDICATOR BLOCK.
E With the head square with the bar and the pin
pushed into the slot adjust the pointer (3) to
point to "0".
F The miter gauge head must rest on top of the
bar without being able to move up and down
... yet it must swivel freely.
G The swiveling movement of the head can be
adjusted by tightening or loosening the set-
screw (4).., using the 118 in. setscrew wrench

HEELING ADJUSTMENT or
PARALLELISM OF SAWBLADE TO NtlTER
GAUGE GROOVE
While cutting, the material must move in a straight
line PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE .... therefore both
the miter gauge GROOVE and the RIP FENCE must
be PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE..
If the sawbtade IS NOT parallel to the miter gauge
groove, the blade will bind at one end of the cut
(This is known as "HEELING").
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 b{ade 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 at FRONT and REAR...
sawblade is PARALLEL to MITER GAUGE
GROOVE.
6 ff tooth does not touch the same amount .. the
mechanism underneath must be adjusted to
make the blade PARALLEL to GROOVE
A Rear trunnion must be moved TOWARD the
combination square if there is a space between
marked tooth and end of square in step 4
B.. Rear trunnion must be moved AWAY from the
square if marked tooth pushes square out of
position in the groove.
7Loosen all three screws that hold the rear trunnion
and all three screws that hold the front trunnion
NOTE: All six screws can be reached through
back of saw. Use a 9/16 in., wrench To reach
left-hand front trunnion screw, tilt blade to 45°..
After loosening screws reposition blade at 90°,_

TROUBLE SHOOTING -- MOTOR
TROUBLE
Excessive noise°
Motor fails to develop
full power., (Power
output of motor decreases
rapidly with decrease in
volta_]e at motor terminals,
For example, areduction
of 10% in voltage causes
a reduction of 19% in
maximum power output
of which the motor is
capable, while areduction
of 20% in voltage causes
areduction of 36% in
maximum power output,)
NOTE: Motors used on wood-working tools are particularly
susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips
and shouid be blown out or "vacuumed" frequently to
prevent interference with normal motor ventilation,
PROBABLE CAUSE REMEDY
1. Motor, 1. Have motor checked by qualified service
technician Repair service is available at
your nearest Sears store.
1_ Circuit overloaded with
lights, appliances and

country, demand for
electrical power may
exceed the capacity
of existing generating
and distribution systems)
4., Incorrect fuses or circuit
breakers in power line.
1, Do not use other appliances or motors on
same circuit when using the saw,
2_ Increase wire sizes, or reduce length of wiring.
