ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR TABLE SAWS
WARNING: FOB YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT
OPERATE YOUR SAW UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY
ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS...AND
UNTIL YOU HAVE READ
AND UNDERSTAND THE FOLLOWING,
1. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR POWER
TOOLS.,. SEE PAGE 2
2. GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SAW.,. SEE PAGE 15
3. BASIC SAW OPERATION.., SEE PAGE 17
4. ADJUSTMENTS... SEE PAGE 24
5. MAINTENANCE...SEE
PAGE 27
6. STABILITY OF SAW
If there is any tendency for the saw to tip over or move during certain cutting operations such as cutting extremely large heavy panels or long heavy boards, the saw should be bolted down. If you attach any kind of table extensions over 24" wide to either end of the saw, make sure you either bolt the saw to the bench or floor as appropriate, or support the outer end of the extension from the bench or floor,
asappropriate.
7. LOCATION The saw should be positioned so neither the operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand in line with the saw blade.
8. KICKBACKS A "KICKBACK" occurs during a rip-type operation when a part or all of the workpiece is thrown back violently toward the operator. Keep your face and body to one side of the sawblade, out of line with a possible "Kickback.'" Kickbacks - and possible injury from them -- can
usually be avoided by: A. Maintaining the rip fence parallel to the sawblade. B. Keeping the sawblade sharp. Replacing antikickback
pawls when points become dull. C. Keeping sawblade guard, spreader, and antikickback
pawls in place and operating properly. The spreader must be in alignment with the sawblade and the pawls must stop a kickback once it has started. Check their action before ripping.
D. NOT ripping work that is twisted or warped or does not have a straight edge to guide along the rip fence.
E. NOT releasing work until you have pushed it all the way past the sawblade.
F. Using a "PUSH STICK" {See Page 18) for ripping widths of 2 to 6 in., and an auxiliary fence and push block for ripping widths narrower than 2 in. (See "Basic Saw Operation Using The Rip Fence" section.)
G. NOT confining the cut-off piece when ripping or crosscutting.
H. When ripping apply the feed force to the section of the workpiece between the saw blade and the rip fence.
9, PROTECTION: EYES, HANDS, FADE, EARS, BODY A. If any part of your saw is malfunctioning, has been damaged or broken.., such as the motor switch, or other operating control, a safety device or the power cord.,, cease operating immediately until the particular part is properly repaired or replaced. B. WRar safety goggles that comply with ANSI Z87.1, and a face shield if operation is dusty. Wear ear
plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation. C. Small loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the rear of the revolving blade can be thrown back at the operator at excessive speed. This
can usually be avoided by keeping the guard and
spreader in place for all "THRU-SAWING" operations (sawing entirely thru the work) AND by removing all loose pieces from the table with a long stick of wood IMMEDIATELY after they are cut off. D, Use extra caution when the guard assembly is removed for resawing, dadoing, rabbeting, or molding - replace the guard as soon as that operation is completed. E, For rip or rip-type cuts, the following end of a
workp[ece to which a push stick or push board is applied must be square (perpendicular to the fence) in order that feed pressure applied to the workpieee by the push stick or block does not cause the workpiece to come away from the fence, and possibly cause a kickback.
F_ During rip and rip type cuts, the workpiece must be beld down on the table and against the fence with a pusb stick, push block, or featherboards. A featherboard is made of solid lumber per sketch.

G. 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 operation planned.
H. NEVER place your face or body in line with the cutting tool.
I. NEVER place your fingers or hands in the path of the sawblade or other cutting tool.
J. NEVER reach in back of the cutting tool with either hand to hold down or support the workpiece,
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. K. DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or setup work on the table while the cutting tool is rotating. L. DO NOT perform any operation "FREEHAND" always use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the work. M. NEVER use the rip fence when crosscutting or the miter gauge when ripping. DO NOT use the rip fence as a length stop. Never hold onto or touch the "free end" of the workpiece or a "free piece" that ls cut off, while power is "ON" and/or the sawblade is rotating. N. Shut "OFF" the saw and disconnect the power cord when removing the table insert, changing the cutting tool, removing or replacing the blade guard, or making adjustments. O. Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of the saw table for wider or long workpieces. P, Plastic and composition (like hardboard) materials may be cut on your saw. However, since these are usually quite hard and slippery, the antikickbaek pawls may not stop a kickback. Q. If you stall or jam the sawblade in the workpiece, turn saw "OFF", remove the workpiece from the sawblade, and check to see if the sawblade is parallel to the miter gauge grooves and if the spreader is in proper alignment with the sawblade. If ripping at the time, check to see if the rip fence is parallel with the sawblade. Readjust as indicated.
R. DONOTremovsemalpl ieceosf cut-ofmf aterial that maybecomterappeidnsidethebladeg"uard whilethesawisrunningT.hiscouldendanger your
hands or cause a kickback. Turn saw "OFF" and wait until blade stops. S. Useextra care when ripping wood that has a twisted grain or is twisted or bowed - it may rock on the table and/or pinch the sawblade.
10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS A. Dull, gummy, or improperly sharpened or set cutting tools can cause materia_ to stick, jam, stall the saw, or kickback at the operator. Minimize potential injury by proper cutting tool and machine maintenance. NEVER ATTEMPT TO FREE A STALLED SAWBLADE WITHOUT FIRST TURNING THE SAW OFF. B, Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels, friction wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or
buffing wheels. 11. USE ONLY ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS
SAW, 12. Crosscuttingoperations are more conveniently worked
and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is attached to the miter gauge using the holes provided. However, the facing must not interfere with the proper functioning of the sawblade guard. 13. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates toward you when standing in normal operating position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting tool as low as possible for the operation being performed. Keep all guards in place whenever possible.
WEAR YOUR
14. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for an operating speed less than 3450 RPM. Never use a cutting tool larger in diameter than the diameter for which the saw was designed. For greatest safety and efficiency when ripping, use the maximum diameter blade for which the saw is designed, since under these conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.
15. Adjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER Operate the saw unless the proper insert is installed.
16. Never feed material into the cutting tool from the rear of the saw. An accident and serious injury could result.
I7. THINK SAFETY. Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times when the saw is being used.
18. NOTE AND FOLLOW SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.

3. /ks soon as the red button will snap into running position, the saw may be started and operated normally by moving the saw switch lever to the "ON" position,
4. Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit is fused with a fuse other than those recommended, Do not use
a fuse of greater capacity without consulting the power company, 5. Although the motor is designed for operation on the voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate, normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not more than 10% above or below the maneplate voltage. Heavy loads, however, require that voltage at motor terminals by not less than the voltage specified on nameplate. 6, Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect connections, overloading, reduced input voltage (which results when small size wires are used in the supply circuit) or when the supply circuit is extremely long. Always check connection, load and supply circuit when the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire sizes and lengths with table at end of this section.
CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE OUTLET
This saw must be grounded while in use to protect the
operator from electrical shock.
If power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.
This plug requires a mating 3.conductor grounded type outlet as shown.

EL[VATION
SCREW HAKIDWHEEL
CHECKING TABLE INSERT
1. With the insert in place, and sawblade all the way down,
use a small scale or straight edge to check near each of
the eight leveling tab positions, in order to determine if
the insert is flush with saw table surface at aPIeight tab
__;
locations.
2. If the insert is above the table surface, the leveling tabs must be adjusted. A. Loosen Screw. B. Lift insert from front end, and pull toward front of saw. C. Remove the insert, place it upside down on your workbench and GENTLY TAP each of the tabs downward only a slight amount. Replace insert... check it and readjust tabs, if necessary.
LEVELING TAB
3. If the insert is BELOW the table surface, remove the insert and bend the tabs (with pliers) enough to make the insert ABOVE the table surface.
4. To replace insert. Place insert into insert opening in table and push toward rear of saw to engage spring clip and until keyslot in insert will drop over screw. Tighten screw.
DO NOT TIGHTEN SCREW TO THE POINT WHERE IT DEFLECTS THE INSERT.
CHECKING BLADE SQUARENESS TO TABLE
IMPORTANT:
BLADE must be SQUARE (90° ) to
TABLE, in order to proceed with assembly.
To check for blade squareness, refer to "BLADE TELT, OR
SQUARENESS OF BLADE TO TABLE" adjustments on
page 25.
NOTE: The Combination Square must be "TRUE" - See start of "Unpacking and Checking Contents section on page 6 for checking method.
CHECKING BLADE FOR HEEL
IMPORTANT: Saw blade MUST be parallel to miter gauge
groove.
To check for parallelism,
refer to "HEELING
ADJUSTMENT OR PARALLELISM OF BAWBLADE TO
MITER GAUGE GROOVE" adjustment on page24.
CHECKING BLADE ELEVATION
Maximum depth of cut MUST NOT EXCEED TWO AND ONE HALF (2-1/2 INCHES. This adiustment is set at the factory and should be checked to make sure that it has not changed due to rough handling during shipment.
MAKE SURE SQUARE IS NOT TOUCHING TIP OF TOOTH
\
\
With the blade up as high as it will go, measure the distance from the top of the table to top of the highest saw tooth. If it is more than two and one half (2-1/2) inches, adjust it at this time. Refer to "BLADE ELEVATION" adjustments on page 26.

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 which you can make yourself.
After you have made a few practice cuts, make these "helpers" before starting any projects. Make the "Push Stick" first.

CROSSCUTTING
CROSSCUTTING
is known as cutting wood across the
grain, at 90 °. or square with both the edge and the flat side
of the wood. This is clone with miter gauge set at "O".
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 slightJy to compensate for any inacurracy.
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: GJue a piece of sandpaper to the face of the miter
gauge head. This will help.preyent "creeping" while it is being cut.
the workplace from
The Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) should be used on the miter gauge for greater accuracy.
The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves in the table. Make sure it is locked,
When using the miter gauge in the LEFT hand groove, hold
the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head with your left hand, end grip the lock knob with your right·
\
PLYWOOD CLAMPED TO SAWHORSE
When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpmce with your right hand and the lock knob with your left hand. When crosscutting a long board, make sum that it is supported· You can make a simole support by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse

When cutting long workpieces, invert the 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 adequatPly support the workpiece. you can make a simple support by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse.
Use the Hold-Down Clamp {Optional Accessory) on the miter gauge for greater accuracy.
AUXILIARY FENCI WORK SUPPORT
REPETITIVE CUTTING
REPETITIVE CUTTING is known as cutting a quantity of pieces the same length without having to mark each piece. 1. Use the Stop Rods (optional accessory) only for cutting
duplicate pieces 6 in. long and longer. 2. Follow all safety precautions and operation 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 gaugefor greater accuracy,
1. NEVER USE THE RIP FENCE ASA LENGTH STOP BECAUSE THE CUTOFF PIECE COULD BIND BETWEEN THE FENCE AND THE BLADE CAUSING A KICKBACK.
2. When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 in., clamp a block of 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 clamps will not grip properly. Place e small block of wood between the bottom edge of the table and the "C" clamps.
CAUTION; When clamping the block, make sure that the end of the block is well in front of the sawblade. Be sure it is clamped securely. 3. Slide the workpiece along the mRer gauge until it touches the block . . . hold it securely or clamp it with the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory). 4. Make the cut . . . pull the workpiece back ... push the cut off piece off the table with a long push stick... DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PICK IT UP AS THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS.

MITERCUTTING
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 crosscutting. Adjust the miter gauge to the desiredangle, and lock it. The miter gauge may be used in either of the groovesin the table. 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 knob with your right. When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpiece with your right hand and the lock knob with your left hand. Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the miter gaugefor greater accuracy.
BEVEL CROSSCUTING
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. Hold the workpiece with your right hand and the lock knob with your left hand. 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,
USING THE RIP FENCE
RIPPING, BEVEL RIPPING, RESAWlNG AND RABBETING are performed using the RIP FENCE together with the AUXILIARY FENCE, PUSH STICK OR PUSH BLOCK.
WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS IN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGES 2, 3, and 4.
1. Never make these cuts FREEHAND (without using the rip fence or auxiliary devices when required) because the blade could bind in the cut and cause a KICKBACK.
2. Always lock the rip fence securely when in use.
3. Remove miter gauge from table.
4. Make sure blade guard is installed for all thru-sawing type cuts. Replace the guard IMMEDIATELY following completion of resawing, rabbeting, dadoing, or molding operations. Frequently check the action of the ANTIKICKBACK PAWLS by passing the workpiece alongside of the spreader while saw is OFF.
Pull the workpiece TOWARD you, If the PAWLS do not DIG into the workpiece and HOLD it... the pawls must be SHARPENED. See "Maintenance" section.
5. Have blade extend approximately 1/8 in. above top of workpiece. Additional blade exposure would increase the hazard potential.
6. Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case of a KICKBACK. Stand to either side of the blade.
7. Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path of the blade.
8. If the blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN SWITCH OFF before attempting to free the blade.
9. Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the workpieee through the cut.., to support long or heavy workpieces . . . to remove small cut-off pieces of material or FOR ANY OTHER REASON.
10. Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the table. REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table with a long stick. Otherwise they could be thrown back at you by the rear of the blade.
11. Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw is RUNNING, THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or cause a KICKBACK.
Turn the saw OFF, After the blade has stopped turning, lift the guard and remove the piece.

RIPPING
RIPPING is know as cutting a piece of wood with the grain, or lengthwise. This is clone using the rip fence. 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 sawblacle.
B. Spreader is properly aHgnecl with sawblade. C. Antikickback pawls are functioning properly.
When ripping LONG BOARDSor use a work support.
LARGE PANELS, always
A simple one can be made by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse.
BEVEL RIPPING
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.
When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 6 in. end WIDER use your RIGHT hand to feed the workpiece until it is clear of the table.
Use LEFT hand ONLY to guide the workpiece ... do not FEED the workpiece with the left hand.
ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES
When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 2 in. to 6 in. wide USE THE PUSH STICK to feed the work.
When WIDTH OF RIP is NARROWER than 2 in., the push stick CANNOT be used because the guard will interfere... USE the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT and PUSH BLOCK. Attach Auxiliary Fence/Work Support to rip fence with two "C" clamps.
21
AUXILIARY FENCE./, WORK SUPPORT
Feed the workpiece by hand along the AUXLIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT until the end is approx. 1 in. past the front edge of the table. Continue to feed using the PUSH BLOCK. Hold the workpiece in position and instal_ the PUSH BLOCK by sliding it on top of the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT (this may raise guard).
BAFFLE
Narrow strips thicker than the Auxiliary Fence/Work Support guard only enough to clear the workpiece. Use PUSH BLOCK may enter the guard and strike the baffle. CAR EFULLY raise to complete cut.
RESAWING
RESAWING is known as ripplng a piece of wood through its thickness. Do not attempt to resaw BOWED or WARPED materiel. NOTE: to RESAW a piece of wood wider than 2-1/2 in .... it will be necessary to remove the blade guard . . . and use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT (See Page 19 )
Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece 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 clamps will not grip properly. Place a small block of wood between the bottom edge of the table and the "C +' clamps. WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY... 1. DO NOT "BACK UP" (REVERSE FEEDING) WHILE
RESAWING BECAUSE THIS COULD CAUSE A KICKBACK.
2. INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON COMPLETION OF THE RESAWING OPERATION.
CUTTING PANELS
When cutting panels (whenever fence is positioned outside of table surface), ALWAYS use the AUXILIARY F ENCE/WOR K SUPPORT, 1. Unlock fence and raise rear end,
2. Position AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT as shown and attach it with two "C" clamps.

PLOUGHING AND MOLDING
PLOUGHING is grooving with the grain the long way of the workpiece, using the fence. Use faatherboards and push sticks as required,
MOLDING is shaping theworkpiecawith the grain the long way of the workplace, using the fence. Use featherboards and push sticks as required.
PLOUGHING
RABBETING
RABBETING is known as cutting out e 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 all the way through the material. Therefore the blade guard must be removed.
. Remove blade guard.
2. For rabbeting along an edge (long way of workp|ecel 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 cutwith board flat on table as any rip (type) cut; make second cut with workpiece on edge. Follow all precautions, safety instructions, and operation instructions as for ripping, or rip type operations, including featherboards end 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
MOLDING
RABBETING ALONG THE EDGE
RABBETING ACROSS THE END
cutting making successive 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.
4. INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON COMPLETION OF RABBETING OPERATION,
Rabbet cuts can also be made in one pass of the workplace over the cutter using the dado head or molding head.
DADOING Instructions for operating the Dado Head are contained in booklet furnished with the Dado Head.
The recommended Dado Head is listed, under recommended Accessories.
The arbor on the saw, is only long enough so that the widest cut that can be made is 13/16" wide.
When installing the dado hesd on the arbor, ALWAYS install the inside "loose collar" first. It is not necessary to install the outside loose collar before screwing on the arbor nut. Make sure the arbor nut is tight. ALWAYS USE DADO INSERT LISTED UNDER RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
When using the dadoing head it will be necessaryto remove the Blade Guard and Spreader, Use miter gauge and follow same procedures and instructions for cross cutting. ALWAYS REPLACE THE BLADE GUARD AND SPREADER WHEN YOU ARE FINISHED DADOING.
When using the moJding head it will be necessary to remove the Blade Guard and Spreader. USE CAUTION. Use featherboards and push sticks, etc, as required.

USING FEATHERBOARDS
Add 8 inch high flat facing board to the fence, the full [ength of the fence. Use featherboards for all non "thru-sawfng" operations {when sawblade guard must be removed). Featherboards are used to keep the work in contact with the fence end table as shown, and to stop kickbacks. 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 (sawblede, dado head, molding head, etc.) with a pushstick, as in ripping,
Before starting the operation Iswitch '*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 wig stop a kickback if one should occur.
Featherboards are not employed during non thru-sawing operations when using the miter gage.
Replace the sawblade guard as soon as the non thru-saw[ng operation is complete.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH "OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER SOURCE OUTLET BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS.
MITER GAUGE
NOTE: 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 squareor protractor.
If necessary,the miter gauge head can be swiveled slightly to compensate for any inaccuracy, The HEAD should be SQUARE (90 ° ) with the bar when the pointer points to "0". To check for squareness, place an accurate square on the miter gauge. If the head is NOT SQUARE with the bar:
I. Loosen the lock knob.
BAR
2. Position the head square with the bar.., tighten the lock knob.
3. Loosen the screw and adjust the pointer, so it points to zero.
The swiveling movement of the head can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the set screw located in side of the head usingthe 1/8 in. setscrewwrench.
HEELING ADJUSTMENT or PARALLELISM OF SAWBLADE TO MITER GAUGE GROOVE
While cuttlng, the material must move in a straight line PARALLEL to the SAWBLAOE . . . therefore both the miter gauge GROOVE and the RIP FENCE must be PARALLEL to the SAW_3LADE.
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 "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 blade 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 iust touches the tip of the MARKED tooth;
24
4. Move square to REAR, rotate blade to see if MARKED tooth again touches blade of square.
5. If tooth touches square the same amount at FRONT and REAR . , . sawblade is PARALLEL to MITER GAUGE GROOVE.
If toothdoesnottouchfrontandrear... themechanism underneathmust be adjustedto make the blade
PARALLEL to GROOVE.
1. Loosen the 4 screws (about 1/4 to 1/2 turn) using 3/16 in. setscrew wrench furnished with saw. Also loosen the 2 pan head 10-32 screws (about f/4 to 1/2' turn_ located at rear of the table top as shown. This will allow the mechanism below the labia to be shifted sideways.
2. Fold a piece of cardboard or heavy paper over the blade to protect your hands.
3. Grasp the blade and move it to the right or left a small amount and tighten one of the screws.
4. Check with square to determine if MARKED TOOTH touches square the same amount at front and rear. If it does, tighten other three screws. If it does not, loosen screw and move blade the required amount.
5. Alternately tighten the SCrewsslowly, NOTE: Use the setscrew wrench as shown . . . do not
