FEATURES

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.
BEVEL ADJUSTING HANDWHEEL - Located on the front of
the cabinet, this handwheel is used to make the adjustment
for bevel angles.
BEVEL LOCKING LEVER - This lever under the worktable
surface on the front of the cabinet, locks the angle setting
of the blade.
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 your saw. The blade is raised and lowered with
the height adjusting knob . 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 guard down over the
blade for through-sawing cuts.
BLADE HEIGHT LOCK KNOB - This knob, in the center of
the bevel adjusting handwheel, locks the height of the blade.
HEIGHT ADJUSTING KNOB - Located on the front of the
cabinet, this knob is used to lower and raise the blade for
adjustments or blade replacement.
IND-I-CUT™ ALIGNMENT DISC - A plastic insert on which
marks may be made to indicate the location of the cut on
the workpiece.
LOCKING LEVER - The lever on the front of the rip fence
releases the rip fence or locks it in place.
MITER GAUGE - This miter gauge aligns the wood for a
cross cut. The easy-to-read indicator shows the exact angle
for a miter cut, with positive stops at 90˚ and 45˚.
MITER GAUGE GROOVES - The miter gauge rides in these
grooves on either side of the blade.
RAILS - Front and rear rails provide support for the rip fence.
RIP FENCE - A sturdy metal fence guides the workpiece
and is secured with the locking lever. Grooves run along the
top and sides of the rip fence for use with optional clamps
and accessories.
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.
RIP SCALE - Located on the front rail, the easy-to-read scale
provides precise measurements for rip cuts.
SWITCH ASSEMBLY - This saw has an easy access switch
assembly located below the front rail. To lock the switch in
the OFF position, remove the yellow switch key from the
switch. Place the key in a location that is inaccessible to
children and others not qualified to use the tool.
TABLE EXTENSION - Located on the side of the saw table,
the table extension gives the operator additional support
when cutting wide workpieces.
