KNOW YOUR TABLE SAW
See Figure 2.
The safe use of this product requires an understanding of
the information on the tool and in this operator's manual as
well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before
use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating
features and safety rules.
ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS - Kickback is a hazard in which
the workpiece is thrown back toward the operator. The teeth
on the removable anti-kickback pawls point away from the
workpiece. If the workpiece should be pulled back toward
the operator, the teeth dig into the wood to help prevent or
reduce the possibility of kickback. The anti-kickback pawls
may be bypassed.
BEVEL SCALE - The easy-to-read scale on the front of the
cabinet shows the exact blade angle.
BLADE - For maximum performance, it is recommended
that you use the 10 in. carbide tipped combination blade
provided with the saw. The blade is raised and lowered
with the height/bevel adjusting handwheel. Bevel angles
are locked with the bevel locking lever. Additional blade
styles of the same high quality are available for specific
operations such as ripping. Your local dealer can provide
you with complete information.
Blade kerf width must be within the limits stamped on the
riving knife.
WARNING:
Do not use blades rated less than the speed of this tool.
Failure to heed this warning could result in personal
injury.
BLADE GUARD - Always keep the removable blade guard
down over the saw blade for through-sawing cuts.
BEVEL LOCKING LEVER - This lever, placed just under
the saw table surface on the front of the cabinet, locks the
angle setting of the blade.
FEATURES
DUST CHUTE - The built-in dust chute makes it easy to
dispose of sawdust. A vacuum hose may be attached to
the dust chute.
HEIGHT/BEVEL ADJUSTING HANDWHEEL - Located on
the front of the cabinet, use this handwheel to lower and raise
the blade for height adjustments or blade replacement. This
handwheel also makes the adjustment for bevel angles easy.
MITER GAUGE - The miter gauge aligns the wood for a
cross cut. The easy-to-read indicator shows the exact angle
for a miter cut.
MITER GAUGE GROOVES - The miter gauge rides in the
grooves on the saw table.
PUSH STICK AND WRENCH STORAGE - Convenient
storage for the push stick and wrenches is located
underneath the saw table.
RIP FENCE - A sturdy metal fence guides the workpiece
and is secured with the locking handle. Push stick storage
is located on the rip fence.
RIP SCALE - Located on the front rail, the easy-to-read rip
scale provides precise measurements for rip cuts.
RIVING KNIFE - A removable metal piece of the blade
guard assembly, slightly thinner than the saw blade, which
helps keep the kerf open and prevent kickback. When in the
through sawing, or "up" position, it is higher than the saw
blade. When in the non-through sawing, or "down" position,
it is below the saw blade teeth.
SWITCH ASSEMBLY - This saw has an easy access switch
assembly located below the front rail.
