CIRCUIT BREAKER SAFETY
AND INSTRUCTION
This saw is equipped with a 15 amp overload circuit
breaker (A) located above the saw main power ON/OFF
switch. During a power overload this breaker will trip
and disconnect all power to the motor. To reset, allow
unit to cool down for 3 to 5 minutes and then push the
breaker button back in. (fig 19)
To prevent the tool from unexpectedly
starting, always turn the power switch
to the off position before resetting the circuit breaker
and/or reconnecting the power supply.
NOTE: Circuit breaker overload may be caused by
attempting to feed the workpiece too fast. Do not
overload the motor by forcing the workpiece into the
blade.
Failure to comply with the following warnings may result in serious personal injury.
Never touch the free end of the workpiece or a free
y
piece that is cut off, while the power is on and/or
the saw blade is rotating. Blade contact or binding
may occur, resulting in a thrown workpiece
When sawing a long workpiece or a panel, use a
y
work support, such as a sawhorse, rollers or outfeed
table at the same height as the table surface of the
saw.
Never try to pull the workpiece back with the blade
y
turning. If you need to pull the workpiece back or lift
it off the table, turn the switch off, allow the blade to
stop, raise the anti-kickback teeth on each side of
the riving knife if necessary, and slide the workpiece
out.
Before connecting the table saw to the power
y
source or operating the saw, always inspect the
blade guard assembly and riving knife for proper

alignment and clearance with saw blade. Check
alignment after each change of beveling angle.
A rip fence should ALWAYS be used for ripping
y
operations to prevent loss of control and personal
injury. Always lock the fence to the rail. NEVER
perform a ripping operation freehand.
When making bevel cuts, place the fence on the
y
right side of the blade so that the blade is tilted
away from the fence and hands. Keep hands
clear of the blade and use a push stick to feed the
workpiece unless the workpiece is large enough to
allow you to hold it more than 6 inches (152 mm)
from the blade.
Before leaving the saw unattended, lock out power
y
switch, or take other appropriate measures to
prevent unauthorized use of the saw.
