OPERATINGCOMPONENTS

The upper portion of the blade projectsup throughthe

table and is surroundedby an insertcalled the throat

prate.The height of the blade is sat with a handwhsel on

the front of the cabinet.To accommodate wide panels,

the saw table has rails on each side. Detailedinstructions

are providedinthe Opera,on section of thisrnanualfor

the basic cuts: crosscuts, miter cuts, bevelcuts, and

compound ¢U_l

The slidingmitertableaseemblyisused forcrosscutting

at an angle by looseningthe adjustingclamp, setting the

fence to the miterscale, and retightening the clamp. The

The rip fence is usedto positionwork for lengthwisecuts.

A scale on the front rail shows the distance between the

ripfence and the blade.

it is very importantto use the blade guardassemblyfor all

TO CHECK SL|D|NG M_'ER TABLE ASSEMB!3/'

The square relationshipbetween the blade and the miter

fence as it travels the entire distancefrom the frontto the

rear of the miter table base duringa cut is very important

for m_ng preciseand accurate cuts.The slidingmiter

table assemblyhas been presetat the factory. However,

misallgnment duringshippingor requirementsfor very

precise and accurate cuts may requirerce[ignment.

To avoid unnecessarysetups arid ad.iuatments,we

suggest that you check these setups carefullywith a fram-

ing square and make practicecuts inscrapwood before

making finishcuts ingood workpisces.

NOTE: Followthe generalrule of measuring twice and

cuttingonce.

Do not loosen any screws.Once screws have been loos-

ened, settings must be reset.

Two basic checks should be made before usingthe miter

table"(1) the miter base must be parallelto the blade as

the table slides fTomthe front to back, and (2)the miter

fence must be squareto the blade when set at exactly

zero (0") on the rafter table scats.

NOT_ The miter tablehas adjus_ant screws for squar-

ing miter fence tc blade and maintaining0° scale settings

when miterbase adjustments are rsc,uired.These checks

BASIC OPERATION OF THE TABLE SAW

The 3-prong p[ug must be plugged into a matchingout-

let that is propertylnst_fled and groundedaccording to

all focalcodesand ordinances.Improper connectionof

the equipmentcan resultin elec_c shock. Do not modify

the plugif it will not.fit the cuber.Have the correct outlet

inst_led bye qus)ified electrician.Refer to the E}ectric_

section in this manual.

CAUSES OF KICKBACK

Kickback can occur when the blade stallsor binds, kick-

ing the workpieca back toward youwith greatforce and

speed. If your handsare near the saw blade, they may

be jerked loosefromthe workpieceand may contactthe

blade. Kickback can cause seriousinjury.Use precautions

to avoidthe risks.

Kickback can be caused by any action that pinchesthe

blade in the wood such as:

• Making a cut with incorrect blade depth

•Sawlng into knots or nailsin the workpiece

•Twistingthe wood while makinga out

•Failingto supportwork

•Forcinga cut

•Cutting warped orwet lumber

•Us{ngthe wrong blade for the type of cut

• Not following oorrect operatingprocedures

•Misusingthe saw

•Failingto use the an_-kick.baokpawls

•Cutting with a dull, gummed-up, or h'npmperiy set

b_ad_

AVOIDING KICKBACK

•Always use the correct blade depth setting.The top of

the blade teeth shouldclearthe workpieceby 1/8 in. to

114in.

•Inspect the work for knotsor nailsbefore beginninga

cut KnocY,out any loose knotsw_thahamme_'.Never

saw into aloose knot orna|(.

•Always use the rip fence when rip cuttingand the miter

gauge when crosscutting.This helps preventtwisting

the wood inthe cut.

•Always use cLsan,sharp, and properly-setblades,

Never make outs with dullblades.

•TOavoid pinchingthe blade, supportthe work properly

before beginningacut,

•When making a cut. usesteady,even pressure. Never

force outs.

•Do not cut wet orwarped lumber.

•Always herdyour workplece fLrmtywith both hands or

with push sticks.Keep your body in a balanoed posi-

tion to be ready to resist kickbackshould it occur.

Never stand direc_y in line withthe blade.

•Use the righttype of blade for the cut being made.

CUTTING AIDS

Pushsticksare devicesused for safelypushinga

A push block has ahandle fastened by recessed screws

from the underside. Use it on non-throughcuts.

TYPES OF CUTS

See Figure25.

There are six bas;c cuts: 1) the crosscut, 2) the rip cut, 3)

the miter cut, 4} the bevelcross cut, 5) the beveldp cut,

and 6) the compound(bevel}mitercut. Altother cuts are

combinationsof these basic six,Operating proceduresfor

making each kind of cut are given later inthissection.

_k WARNING: Alwaysmake surethe blade guard

and anti-kickback p_wIs are in place and work'rng

proparty when making these cuts to avoid possible

iniury.

Cross cuts are straight90° cuts rr_ds acrossthe grain of

the workpiaos.The wood is fed into the outat a 90° angle

to the blade, and the blade is vertical.

Rip cuts are made withthe grain of the wood. To avoid

kickbackwhile making a rip cut, make sure one side of

the wood rides firmly againstthe rip fence.

Miter cuts are made with the wood at any angle to ths

blade other than 90°. The blade is verticaLMiter cuts

tend to "creep" away from the miterfence during cutting.

This can be controlledby holdingthe workplace astutely

against the miter fence.

_" WARNING; Always use apushstick when cutting

small pieces of wood, and atsoto finishthe cut when

ripping a long narrowpiece of wood, to preventyour

hands from ge'_t.ingo{ossto the blade.

Bevel cuts are made with an angled blade. Bevel cross

cuts are acrossthe wood grain,and bevelrip Gutsare with

the grain.The rip fence must always be on the left sideof

the blade for bevelrip cuts.

Compound (or bevel} miter cuts are made with an angled

FEATHERBOARD

A fsatherboard is a device usedto heJpcontroithe

workpisce by guidingit securelyagainst the table or

fence. Faatharboardsare especially usefulwhen ripping

small workpiecesand for completingnon-throughcuts.

The end is angled with a numberof short kerfsto givea

friction hold on the workplaceand locked in place on the

table witheC-clamp, Test that it can resistkickback.

AWARNING: Place the featharboardagainstthe

uncut portionof the wor_oieceto avoidkickback that

could cause seriouspersonal iniury.

HOW TO MAKE A FEATHERBOARD

See F/gum26.

The featherboard is an excellent project for the saw.

Select s solid piece of lumber approximately 3/4 in.

thick, 3-5/8 in. wide and 18 in. long. Mark the center of

the width on one end of the stock. Miter one-half of the

width to 30@and miter the other half of the same end

to 45°(see page 32 for information on miter cuts). Mark

the board from the point at 6 in., 8 in., 10 in., and 12 in.

Drill a 3/8 in. hoteat the 8 in., 10 in., and 12 in. marks.

Prepare the saw for ripping as discussed on page 31.

Set the rip fence to allow approximately a 1/4 in.

"finger" to be cut in the stock. Feed the stock only to

the mark previouslymade st 6 in. Turn the saw OFF

and allow the blade to completety stop rotating before

removing the stock. Reset the rip fence and cut spaced

rips into the workpisce 1o allow approximately 1/4 in.

fingers and 1/8 in. spaces between the fingers.

HOW TO MOUNT A FEATHERBOARD

See Figure 27.

Removethe adjustingclamp knob, bolt,and washerfrom

the miter fence holder.Place the boltthroughone of the

holes inthe featherboard. Positioningthe fsatherboard

will depend on the placement of the bolt and the position

The table sew has been adjusted at the factoryfor mak-

might have been jarred out of alignmentduringshipping.

ALso,overa period of t'rne, rsediustmentwill probably

become necessary due to wear.

3"0avoid unnecessary setups and adjustmen*.s,a good

practice is to check your setupscarefullywith a fram-

making finishcuts in goodworkpiaces. Do not start any

adjustments untilyou have checked with a square and

made test cuts to be sure adjustments are needed.
