SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS FOR TABLE SAW
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert
and knowing how your table saw works. Read this
manual to understand this saw.
BEFORE USING THE SAW
WARNING: To avoid mistakes that could cause
serious, permanent Injury, do not plug the saw in
until the following steps have been satisfactorily
completed.
1. Assembly and Alignment (See pages 13 -34).
2. Learn the use and function of the ON-OFF Switch,
Guard, Spreader, Anti-Kickbackdevice, MiterGauge,
Fence, Table Insert and Blade Elevation and Bevel
Controls. (See page 35)
3. Review and understanding of all safety instructions
and operating procedures in this manual.
4. Review of the maintenance methods for this saw.
4. GROUND THE SAW- This saw has an approved 3-
conductor cord and a3-prong grounding type plug.
The plug fits grounding type outlets designed for 120
volt 15 amp circuits. The green conductor inthe cord
isthe groundingwire. To avoid electrocution, NEVER
connect the green wire to a live terminal.
5. To avoid injuryfrom electrical shock, make sure your
fingers do not touch the plug's metal prongs when
plugging in or unplugging the saw.
6. To avoid back injury, get help or use recommended
casterswhen you need to movethe saw. Always get
help if you need to il_ the saw. Holdthe saw closeto
yourbody. Bend your knees so you can liftwithyour
legs, not your back.
7. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could
occur ifthe tool tips or you accidentally hitthe cutting
tool. Do not store anything above or near the tool
where anyone might stand on the tool to reach them.
Read theDANGER label found onthe front ofthe saw as BEFORE EACH USE:
shown below.
WHEN INSTALLING OR MOVING THE SAW
1. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Use the
saw in adry place protected from rain. Keep work
area well lighted.
2_To avoid injury from unexpectedsaw movement:
A. Put the saw on a firm level surface where there is
B. Support the saw so the table is level and the saw
does not rock.
C. Bolt the saw to the floor if it tends to slip walk, or
slide during normal use.
D. When using table extensions over 24 inches wide
on any side of the saw, bolt the saw to the floor or
prop up the outer end of the extension from tLa
floor to keep the saw from tipping.
3. Put the saw where neither operators nor bystanders
must stand in line with the saw blade.

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 condit_ns that may affect the way it
works. If any partis missing, bent, or broken inany
way, or any 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 Pawlsfor anythru-sawing (whenever the
blade comes through the top of the workplace).
Make surethe Pawls work properly. Make sure the
Spreader is in line with the sawblade.

E. REMOVEADJUSTING KEYSANDWRENCHES.
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" (See page 58). Follow the instructions
that come with the accessories. The use of
improper accessories may cause risk of injury to
persons.
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. Theycan fly apart
explosively.
4. Choose and inspect your cutting tool carefully.
a. To avoidcuttingtoolfailure andthrown shrap-
nel (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 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" it securely.
e. Useonlysharpbladeswith properly setteeth.
Consult aprofessional blade sharpenerwhen
in doubt,
f. Keep blades clean of gum and resin.
5. Adjust table inserts flush with the table lop.
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.
3. Plan yourwork
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 wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties or
jewelry (rings, 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 lime.
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 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 com-
pliance with ANSI Z87.1 could seriously hurt
you when they break.
WEAR YOUR
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 workpiece
to be cut.
D. 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.
1. Nevercut FREEHAND: Always use eithera rip
fence, miter gauge or fixture to position ane
guide the work, so it won't twist bind on the
blade and kickback.
2. Make sure there's no debris between the work-
piece and its supports.
3. When cutting irregularly shaped workpieces,
plan your work so it wilt not slip and pinch the
blade:
a. A piece of molding, for example, must _ieflat
or be held by a fixture or jig that will 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 tool for
work that can't be made stable.
4. Use extra caution with large, very small or
awkward workpieces:
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 atable extension, oras 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. Never confinethe piece being cut off, that is,
thepieceNOTagainstthe Fence, MiterGauge
or fixture. Never hold it, clamp it, touch it, or
use length stops against it. It must be freeto
move. Ifconfined, itcouldget wedged against
the blade and cause a kickback or throw-
back.
c. Never cut morethan one workpiece at atime.
d. Never turn your table saw "ON"before clear-
ing everything except the workpiece and
related support devices off the table.
4. Plan thewayyou will pushtheworkplecathrough.
A. NEVER pull the workpiece through. Start and
finish the cut from the front of the table saw.
B. NEVER put your fingers or hands in the path of
the sawblade or other cutting tool.
C. NEVER reach Inback ofthe cutUngtool with either
hand to hold clown or support the workpiece,
remove wood scraps, or for any other reason.
D. Avoid hand positions where asudden slip could
cause fingers or hand to move into a sawblade or
other cutting tool.
E. DON'T OVERREACH. Always keep good footing
and balance.
F. Push the workpiece 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 side of the sawblade,out of linewith a possible
kickback or throwback.
I. NEVERtumthe saw"ON"before cleadngthetable
of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except the work-
piece and related feed or support devices for the
cut planned.
J. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING - Make sure
switch is "OFF" before plugging saw in.
WHENEVER SAW BLADE IS SPINNING
WARNING: Don't let familiarity (gained from fre-
quent use of your table saw) cause acareless
mistake. Always remember that a careless frac-
tion of asecond 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 vJ_oratesa lot, stop immediately. 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 toot tu ms
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. Ailvisitors should be kept
asale distancefmmwork. Make surebystanders 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 itsdesigned rate. Feed the workpiece intothe
blade only fast enough to let it cut without bogging
down or binding.
7. Before freeing any jammed material:
A. -rum switch "OFF".
B. Unplug the saw.
C. Wait for all moving parts to stop.
D. Check blade, Spreader and Fence for proper align-
ment before starting, again.
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".
2. Remove switch key.
3. Wait for blade to stop before liftingthe Guard.
additional instructions for
RiP TYPE CUTS
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 Block whenever the Fence
must be between 1/2 and 2 inches ofthe blade. Never
thru-saw ripcutsnarrower than 1/2 inch. (See"BASIC
SAW OPERATION -USING THE RiP FENCE" sec-
tion.)
3. Never rip anything shorter than 10" long.
4. 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.
5. A FEATHERSOARD can help guide the workpiece.
See "BASIC SAW OPERATION - USING THE RiP
FENCE." Always use Featherboards for any non
thru rip type cuts.
24"
KERFS ABOUT
5/16" APART
4-112 '' '-'_--'_ 5'""
BEFORESTARllNG
1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, make
sure the Rip Fence is parallel to the sawblade.
2. Before thru-sawing, 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 due
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 espe-
cially careful in your set-up and cutting procedures.
WHILE CUTTING
1. To avoid kickbacks and slips into the blade, always
push forward on the section of the workpiece between
the saw blade and the Rip Fence. Never pushforward
on the piece being cut off.
3. Use jigs or fixtures to help hold any piece too sina!! to
extend across the full lengthof the Miter Gauge face
during the cut. This lets you propedy hold the Miter
Gauge and workpiece and helps keep your hands
away from the blade. (See page 37.)
WHgLE CUTTING
1. To avoid blade contact, always hold the Miter Gauge
as shown in the "BASIC SAW OPERATIONS -US-
iNG THE MITER GAUGE."
BEFORE LEAVDNG THE SAW
1. Turn the saw off.
2.
3.
Wait for blade to stop spinning,
Makeworkshopchild-proof. Lock the shop. Discon-
nect master switches. Remove the yellow Switch
Key. Store it away from children and others not
qualified to use the tool.
4. Unplug the saw.
additional instructions for
CROSS CUT TYPE CUTS
BEFORE STARTING
1. NEVER use the Rip Fence when crossc:£ting.
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 withthe Sawblade
Guard.

Motor Thermal Overload Protector
IMPORTANT: To avoid motor damage, this motor should
be blown out orvacuumed frequently to prevent sawdust
buildup which will interfere with normal motor ventilation.
Your saw is equipped with a manual-reset thermal over-
load protector designed to open the power line circuit
when the motor temperature exceeds a safe level, motor
is overloaded or alow voltage condition exists.
WARNING: Avoid thrown objects or blade con.
tact from unexpected starting, if the protector
stops the saw motor, immediately turn the saw
switch "OFF", remove the key and allow motor
time to cool.
1. After cooling to a safe operating temperature, the
overload protector can be closed manually by push-
ing the red button on the end of the motor. If the red
button will not click into place immediately, the motor
is still too hot and must be allowed to cool for a while
longer.
The time required for the motor to cool may be equal
to the length of time the saw was used before the
thermal overload protector opened, to shut of! elec-
trical flow, An audible click will indicate the protector
is closed.
2_ As soon as the red button will click into running posi-
tion. the saw may be started and operated normally.
3. Frequent "blowing" of fuses or tripping of circuit
breakers may result if:
a. MOTOR IS OVERLOADED - Overloading can
occur if you feed too rapidly or if saw is misaligned
b. MOTOR CIRCUIT IS FUSED DIFFERENTLY
FROM RECOMMENDATIONS - Always follow
instructions for the proper fuse/breaker, Do not
use a fuse/breaker of greater capacity without con.
suiting a qualified electrician
c. LOW VOLTAGE - Although the motor is designed
for operation on the voltage and frequency speci-
fied on motor nameplate, normal loads will be han-
died safety on voltage 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.
4. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incor-
rect connections, overloading, reduced input voltage
(such as small size wire inthe supply circuit) or to
overly long supply circuit wire. Always check the con-
nections, the load and the supply circuit whenever
motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire sizes
and length with the Wire Size Chart below.
Wire Sizes
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over-
heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to
determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.] extension
cord. Use only 3 wire extension cords which have 3
prong grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles
which accept the tools plug.
iMPORTANT: For circuits that are farther away from
electrical service box. the wire size must be increased
proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage to the
saw motor.

3. Check the rounded front edges of rip fence guide
bars to see if they are even with each other, tf they
are even, go on to step 5. If they are uneven (offset
from each other) find the very thin shim washers.
Begin stacking these washers against rounded front
edge of the guide bar whose rounded edge is far-
thest away from the operator. Continue stacking
washers until the top of the stack is even with round
front edge of the other guide bar. Count the number
of washers in the stack and make two stacks con-
taining this number of washers.

measuring tape. It must later be attached to this
same rip fence guide bar. At the left end and rig ht
end of right rip fence guide bar. measure back
3/8" from the front rounded edge and put pencil
marks on the guide bar at these points, Using a
straight edge draw a pencil line that passes
through both of these points.
9. Repeat this same operation on left front rip fence
guide bar so it also has a straight pencil line
drawn along its full length and 3/8" back from the
rounded front edge of the guide bar._

10. Find the measuring tape you set aside earlier. It
must be attached to the right front np fence
guide bar. To do so:
A. Find the end of measuring tape with "0" inch
mark. Place this end of measunng tape on
pencil mark you drew across left end of guide
bar earlier. Now place front edge of measunng
tape on line you drew along full length of
guide bar earlier,
B. While holding measuring tape in this position
pick up left end of measu ring tape and peel off
about six inches of protective coating from
underside of measuring tape. This wilt expose
adhesive on underside of measuring tape.
Very carefully lower left end of measuring tape
back down on rip fence guide bar making su re
the measunng tape is lined up properly with
pencil marks. Press left end of measuring tape
down against guide bar so adhesive will hold
measuring tape in place.
C, Raise measuring tape and peel back another
six inch section of protective covenng. Now
carefully lower measuring tape against guide

15. The measuring tapes can now be usec together
with the rip scale pointer to provide a quick
method for positioning the rip fence to produce
boards of the width you desire, If you want to np
a board four (4} inches wide. simply slide the rip
fence along the front guide rait until the red line
(rip scale pointer) is positioned straight above
the four inch line on the measuring tape. Lock
the fence in this position and rip the board.
NOTE: If extreme accuracy is required when ripping,
you should not use this method to position the
fence. Instead. use a precision measuring instrument
to set the rip fence the exact distance away from the

BASIC SAW OPERATION
WORK FEED DEVQCES
Before cutting any wood on your saw, study all of the
"Basic Saw Operation" section.
As you learn new table saw woodworking techniques,
you'll see t hat many types of cuts need different support-
ing devices, known as jigs or fixtures. Theycan help you
make cuts more accurately. By helping to steady the
workpiece and keep you away from the blade, they can
help you safely use your saw for certain cuts.
Many people custom build their own jigs and fixtures.
Jigs and fixtures are often unique, designedfera particu-
lar cut.
You can use you rtable saw to easily make many jigs and
fixtures. To get you started, we've included instructions
for some simple ones. After you have made a few
practice cuts, make up these jigs before starting any
projects. Make the push stick first.
PUSH STICK AND PUSH BLOCK
Make the Push Stick using a piece of I x 2.

SAFETY iNSTRUCTIONS FOR BASIC SAW OPERATIONS
BEFORE EACH USE:
1. Inspect your saw.
a. Toavoid injuryfrom 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 any 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 aga i n.
d. Use the sawblade guard, spreader, and anti-
kickback pawtsfor 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 Et on,
To avoid injury from jams. slips or thrown
pieces (kickback and throwback):
1_USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCES-
SORIES (See page 58) - 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 grindm g wheels, abrasive cut-off
wheels, friction wheels Lmetal slitting blades)
wire wheels or buffing wheel. They can fly
apart explosively.
4O
4. Choose and inspect your cutting tool care-
fully.
a. To avoid cutting too_ failure and thrown
shrapnel (broken pieces of b_ade), use
onty 10" orsmaller btadesor oti3er cutting
tools marked for speeds of 3450 rpm or
higher.
b. Always use unbroken, balanced b_ades
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 btade.
This keeps the spreader in c!osest to the
blade.
d Do not overtighten arbor nut. Use arbor
wrenches to "snug" it securety_
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 _ocks 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 stippery from wax or
sawdusL
b. To avoid burns or other fire daJT_age, 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 sw itch
is in "OFF" position before pSugging saw in.
Plan your work
1 USE THE RIGHT TOOL - Dont force too_ or
attachment to do a joo _t was not des_g ned for.
2, Dress for safety:
- Do not wear loose clothing, g_oveso neckties
or jewelry (rings, wrist watches). They can get
caught and draw you into moving parts.
- Wear nonstip footwear.
- Tie back long hair.
- Roll tong sBeeves 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 yourcuttoavoid KICKBACKSand 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 you r work so it will not slip and pinch the
blade.
- A piece of molding, for example, must lie
fiat 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 ot the
table top. NEVER use another person as a
substitute for a table extension, or as addi-
tional support for a workpieoe that is longer
or wider then the basic saw table, or to help
feed, support or pull the workpiece.
41
-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 btade and cause a
kickback or throwback.
- Never cut more than one workpiece at a
time.
-Never turn your table saw "ON" before
ctearing eye,thing except the workpiece
and related support devices off the table.
Plan the way you will push the workpiece through.
-NEVER pult the workplece through. Start and
finished the cut from the fron of the tabel saw.
-NEVER put your fingers or hands in the path of
the sawblade or other cutting tool.
-NEVER reach in back of the cuffing 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 asudden 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.
-Asmuch as possible, keep you r 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
workptece and related feed or support devices
for the cut planned.
WHENEVER SAW iS RUNNING
WARNING: DOn't let faml.arlty (gained from
frequent use of your table saw) cause a careless
rnlstakeo Always remember that a careless frac-
tion of asecond is enough to cause asevere
injury.
1. Before actually cuttingwith the saw, watch it while it
runs fora short while. If it makes an unfamilar noise
or vibrates excessively, stop immediately. Turn the
saw off. Unplug the saw. Do not resta_ untiafinding
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 tooU as Rowas possible for the cut
you're planning.
4. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. AH 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 intothe
blade only fast enough to let it cut without bogging
down or binding.
7. Before freeing any jammed mater_al:
a. Turn switch "OFF"_
b. Unplug the saw.
c. Wait for all moving parts to stop.
d. Check blade spreader and fence for proper a_ign-
menl before starling, again.
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.
2. Remove switch key.
3, Wait for blade to stop before liftingthe 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 Jt away from children and
others not qualified to use the tool.
4. Unplug the saw,

USING THE M TER GAUGE
THE MgTER GAUGE IS USED WHEN CROSSCUT-
TING, MITER CUTTBNG, BEVEL CUTTING, COM-
POUND MITER CUTTING, DADOI_NG and when
RABBETTaNG AND MOLDING across the end of a
narrow workpiece,
WARNING: For your own safe_y, always observe
the _o_owlng safety precautions in addition te
the safety Ins_ctn@ns en pages 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 40,
41, and 42.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY _NSTRUCT!ONS 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 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.
WhiBecutting
- To avoid blade contact, always hold the miter
gauge as shown in the BASIC SAW OPERA-
TtONS - 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, tn 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 barand
the groove in the table is held to a minimum during
manufacturing.

|
TABLE
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 orevent the
work#fece from "creeping" while it is being cut.
The Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory 1
should be used on the miter gauge for greater
accuracy.
The Miter Gauge may be used ineither of the grooves
in the table. Make sure it is locked.
WARNING: To avoid blade contact or kickback,
hold the Miter Gauge properly.
When using the Miter Ggauge 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, hotd the work-
piece with your right hand and the Lock Handle with
your left hand.

MITER CUTTING
MITER CUTTING is known as cutting wood at an
angle other than 90° with the edge of the wood,
Follow the same procedure as you would for cross-
cutting.
Adjust the miter gauge to the desired angle, and lock
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 firm!y against the miter
gauge head with your left hand, and grip the lock
handle with your right
When using the RIGHT hand groove, ho_d the
workpiece with your right hand and the knob with
your left hand.
Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on
the miter gauge for greater accuracy.
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING
BEVEL CROSSCUTTING 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 will interfere. H_td
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 workp_ece
as near to the end as possible.
Usethe 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 eoge and
the flat side of the wood.
Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired
angle... Make sure miter gauge is locked

1. NEVER use the Miler Gauge when ripping.
2. Use aPush Stick whenever the fence is 2 or more
inches from the blade. When thru-sawing, use an
auxiliary fence and push block whenever the fence
must be between 1/2 and 2 inches of the blade.
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 slip off or push
the work away from the fence.
4. A FEATHERBOARD can help guide the workpiece.

Before starting
-To avoid kickbacks and slips into the btade,
make sure the ripfence isparallel to the sawblade_
-Check the antikickback pawls. The pawls must
stop a kickback once it has started. Replace or
sharpen antikickback pawls when points become
dutt.
-Plastic and composition (like hardboard_
materials 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,
RIPPING
Ripping
Acutting operation along the length of the workpiece,
Position the fence to the desired WIDTH OF RIP and
_ock in place.
Before starting to rip, be sure
A. Rip Fence _s parallel to sawblade.
B. Spreader is properly aligned with sawblade
C. Antikickback 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 asawhorse.
BEVEL R|PPING NARROW WORK
When bevel r_pping 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

USUNG FEATHERBOARDS FOR THRU-
SAWRNG
Featherboards are not employed for thru-sawing opera-
tions when using the miter gauge.
Featherboards are used to keep the workpiece in con-
tact with the fence and table as shown, and to heRpstop
kickbacks.
Add 7-1/2 inch highflat facing board to the fence, the full
length of the fence.
Mount featherboards to fence and table as shown so that
_eading edges of featherboards will support workpiece.
WARNING: Make sure the feath_rboard against
the edge presses enly on the uncut po_lon (for°
ward of the blade). _t m_ght othe_lse pinch the

RESAWING
RESAWING is known as ripping a piece of wood
through its thickness. Do not attempt to resaw
BOWED or WARPED material. NOTE: To RESAW a
piece of wood wider than 3-3/8 inch . _t will be
necessary to remove the blade guard.., and use the
AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT (See "Work
Helpers").
Clamp it to the table so that the work piece will SLIDE
EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS without
BINDING between the two fences.
Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table
because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip
properly. Place a small block of wood between the
bottom edge of the table and the "C" clamp.
OF WOOD
WARNING: For your own safety...
!. Do not "Back Up" (reverse _eedtng) while
resawlng becausethis could cause akickback.
2. Make first pass to a depth slightly more than
one-half the width of the board; keep the same
face of the board against fence for the second
pass.
3. install blade guard immediately upon comple-
tion of the resawing operation.

Use featherboards for all other non "thru-sawing"
operations (when sawbtade guard must be
removed_. Featherboards are used to keep the work
in contact with the fence and table as shown, an_ to
stop kickbacks.
Add 7-1/2 inch high flat facing board to the fence,
the full length of the fence.
Mount featherboards to fence and table as shown,
so that leading edges of featherboards will support
workpiece until cut is complete, and the workpiece
/
has been pushed completely past the cutter
(sawblade. dado head molding head. etc.) with a
pushstick, as in ripp,ng.
Before starting the operation (switch 'OFF" and

(a) Install featherboards so they exert pressure on
the workpiece: be positive they are secure• and
(b) Make sure by trial that the featherboards will
stop a kickback if one should occur
Replace the sawblade guard as soon as the non
thru-sawing operation is complete
5O
RABBETING
RABBET!NG is known as cutting out a section of the
corner of a piece of material, across an end or atong
an edge.
To make a RABBET requires cuts which do not go ai!
the way through the material Therefore the blade
guard must be removed.
1. Remove blade guard.
2. For 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 fiat 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 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 fiat 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
obtain the desired width of cut. DO NOT use the
rip fence for rabbeting across the end.
IWARNING: For your own safety, Install blade I

G. The swiveling movement of the head can be
adjusted by tightening or loosening the set-
screw (4) ... using the 1/8 in. Hex "L" wrench.
NOTE: The setscrew is located inside of the
head. To reach it, swivel the head to 60
degrees and turn the miter gauge upside
down.
WARNING: The blade must be parallel to the
miter gauge groove. Misaligned blades could
bind on workpiece. Workpiece could suddenly
kickback. You could be cut or hit,
While cutting, the matedal must move in a straight line
PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE...therefore, both the _/__.4
miter gauge GROOVE and the RIP FENCE must be
PARALLEL to the SAWBLADE.
If the sawblade IS NOT parallel to the miter gauge
groove, the blade will bind at one end of the cut. (This
is known as "HEEUNG").
To check for parallelism:

TROUBLE SHOOTING -- MOTOR
NOTE: Motors used on wood-working tools are particularly
susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips
and should be blown out or "vacuumed" frequently to
prevent interference with normal motor ventilation.
TROUBLE
Excessivenoise.
Motor fails to devegop
full power. (Power
output of motor decreases
rapidly with decrease in
voltage at motor terminals.
For example, a reduction
of 10% in voltage causes
a reduction of 19% in
maximum power output
of which the motor is
capable, while areduction
of 20% in voltage causes
a reduction of 36% in
maximum power output.)
PROBABLE CAUSE
1. Motor.
1. Circuit overloaded with
lights, appliances and
other motors.
2. Undersize wires or circuit
too long.
3. General overloading of
power company
facilities. (In some
sections of the
country, demand for
electrical power may
exceed the capacity
of existing generating
and distribution systems,)
4. Incorrect fuses or circuit
breakers in power line.
REMEDY
1. Have motor checked by qualified service
technician. Repair service is available at
your nearest Sears store.
1. Do not use other appliances or motors on
