SPECIAL
CUTTING TECHNIQUES
This table saw is a highly versatile
tool, capable of performing
a wide
range of highly specialized
cuts that cannot be cov-
ered in this manual. Do not attempt to perform cuts
not covered in this manual unless you are thoroughly
familiar with procedures
and fixturing.
See your
local library for books on woodworking
techniques,
such as: The Complete Book of Station-
ary Power Tool Techniques
by R.J. De Christoforo
or Table Saw Techniques
by R. Cliffe.
CUTTING
METALS

This
table

Maintaining
Your Table Saw
MAINTENANCE
For your own safety, turn switch
"OFF" and remove plug from power
source outlet before maintaining
or lubricating your
saw.
CLEAR
DUST CHUTE/SCOOP
At times, thin cut-offs may fall through the table insert
and down into the dust chute. These may accumu-
late and hamper dust collection.
Your GTS1031
is
designed
with a tool-free access Dust Chute/Scoop
for quickly and easily clearing this space.
For your own safety, turn switch
"OFF" and remove plug from power
source outlet before maintaining
your saw.
1. Loosen dust chute/scoop retainer I screw. See Fig
58.
2. Remove the 2 dust chute/scoop
by sliding it away
from the tool and clear any debris.
3. Reattach 2 dust chute/scoop
and secure with re-
tainer screw.
Tool should not be operated without
securing dust chute/scoop
properly
with the retainer screw.
Do not allow sawdust to accumulate
inside the saw.
Frequently
blow out any dust that may accumulate
inside the saw cabinet,
motor or blade elevation
gears.
Clean your cutting tools (i.e. blades) with a
Gum and Pitch Remover.
Periodically clean the guard. Wipe it or blow it clean
with compressed
air.
The cord and the tool should
be wiped with a dry
clean cloth to prevent
deterioration
from oil and
grease.
_
Certain
cleaning
agents and sol-
vents can damage
plastic
parts.
Some of these are: gasoline, carbon
tetrachloride,
chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and house-
hold detergents
which contain ammonia.
Avoiding
use of these and other types of cleaning agents will
minimize the possibility of damage.
A coat of automobile-type
wax applied
to the table
will help to keep the surface clean and allow work-
pieces to slide more freely.
If the power cord is worn or cut, or damaged
in any
way, have it replaced immediately.
Make sure the teeth of the ANTIKICKBACK
pawls
are always sharp. To sharpen:
1. Remove blade guard.
2. Rotate pawl toward rear of spreader so that teeth
are above top of spreader.
3. Hold spreader
with pawl over corner
of work-
bench (Fig. 59).
4. Using a small round file (Smooth Cut) sharpen the
teeth.
