3. Using wrenches
, loosen and remove the arbor nut
by turning anti-clockwise.
23
4. Place the saw blade on to the spindle
at the front of the table. Assemble the washers and arbor nut to the spindle and tighten arbor
nut
22
as far as possible by hand, making sure that the saw blade is against the inner washer
and the outer flange
24
is against the blade. Ensure the largest diameter of the flange is
against the blade. Ensure the spindle and washers are free from dust and debris.
5. To keep the spindle from rotating when tightening the arbor nut, use the open end of the
blade wrench
20
to secure the spindle.
6. Using the arbor wrench, tighten the arbor nut
7. Replace the throat plate.
WARNING: Always check the rip fence pointer and the blade guard assembly after having
changed the blade.
Mounting the Blade Guard Assembly/Riving Knife (Fig. A, D)
WARNING: Use the guard assembly for all through cutting.
WARNING: Use the riving knife for non-through-cutting when blade guard assembly
cannot be used.
WARNING: Do not insert both the blade guard assembly and the non-through-cutting
riving knife into the clamp at the same time.
NoTE: The saw is shipped with the non-through-cutting riving knife installed.
1. Raise the saw blade arbor to its maximum height.
2. Install blade guard assembly by pulling the guard release lever
non-through-cutting riving knife

or the blade guard assembly
3. Release lever, make sure clamp plates are fully closed and clamp the splitter securely.
WARNING: Before connecting the table saw to the power source or operating the saw,
always inspect the blade guard assembly for proper alignment and clearance with saw
blade. Check alignment after each change of bevel angle.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, DO NOT operate saw if blade
assembly is not securely clamped in place.

clears the blade in all operations. Refer to Aligning Guard Assembly/Splitter to Blade.
WARNING: Correct mounting and alignment of the blade guard assembly is essential to
safe operation!

Mounting the Throat Plate (Fig. E)
16
1. Align the throat plate
as shown in Figure E, and insert the tabs on the back of the throat
plate into the holes on the back of the table opening.
40
2. Turn the locking screw
clockwise 90° to lock the table insert in place.
3. The throat plate includes four adjustment screws
When properly adjusted, the front of the throat plate should be flush or slightly below the
surface of the table top and secured in place. The rear of the throat plate should be flush or
slightly above the table top.
WARNING: Never use the machine without the throat plate. Immediately replace the throat
plate when worn or damaged.
To Remove the Throat Plate
16
1. Remove the throat plate
by turning the locking screw
26
2. Using finger hole
, pull throat plate up and forward to expose the inside of the saw. DO
NOT operate the saw without the throat plate. If using a dado blade, use proper dado throat
plate (sold separately).
Fitting the Rip Fence (Fig. F)
The rip fence can be installed in two positions on the right (Position 1 for 0 mm to 62 cm ripping,
and Position 2 for 20.3 cm to 82.5 cm ripping) and one position on the left of your table saw.
1. Unlock the rip fence latches
18
.
2. Holding the fence at an angle, align the locator pins (front and back)
with the fence head slots
30
.
3. Slide the head slots onto the pins and rotate the fence down until it rests on the rails.
4. Lock the fence in place by closing the front and back latches
Bench Mounting (Fig. A)
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury, make sure table saw is firmly mounted to a
stable surface before use.
CAUTION: Ensure that the surface is stable enough that large pieces of material will not
cause it to tip over during use.

The table saw must be mounted firmly. Four holes
mounting. We strongly recommend that these holes be used to anchor the table saw to your
workbench or other stationary rigid frame.
1. Centre the saw on a square piece of 12.7 mm plywood.
2. Mark the positions of the two rear mounting holes (spaced 220 mm apart) in the frame of
the saw with a pencil. Then measure forward 498.5 mm for the two front holes spaced 230
mm apart.
3. Remove the saw and drill 9 mm holes in the places you have just marked.
4. Position the saw over the four holes you drilled in the plywood and insert four 8 mm machine
screws FROM THE BOTTOM. Install washers and 8 mm nuts on the top. Tighten securely.
5. In order to prevent the screw heads from marring the surface to which you clamp the
saw, attach two strips of scrap wood to the bottom of the plywood base. These strips can
be attached with wood screws installed from the top side as long as they don't protrude
through the bottom of the strip.
6. Use a "C" clamp to secure the plywood base to your workbench whenever you use the saw.
ADJUSTMENTS
Blade Adjustment (Fig. G)
Blade Alignment (Parallel to Mitre Slot)
WARNING: Cut Hazard. Check the blade at 0˚ and 45˚ to make sure blade does not hit the
throat plate, causing personal injury.
If the blade appears to be out of alignment with the miter slot on the table top, it will require
calibration for alignment. To realign the blade and miter slot, use the following procedure:
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect machine from
power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or
changing set-ups or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
1. Using a 5 mm hex wrench, loosen rear pivot bracket fasteners
of the table, just enough to allow the bracket to move side-to-side.
2. Adjust the bracket until the blade is parallel to the miter gauge slot.
3. Tighten the rear pivot bracket fasteners to 12.5–13.6 Nm (110–120 in-lbs).
Blade Height Adjustment (Fig. A)

is
The blade can be raised and lowered by turning the blade height adjustment wheel
Make sure the top three teeth of the blade are just breaking through the upper surface of the
workpiece when sawing. This will ensure that the maximum number of teeth are removing
material at any given time, thus giving optimum performance.
Aligning Guard Assembly/Splitter to Blade (Fig. A, H)
1. Remove the throat plate. Refer to Remove Throat Plate.
2. Raise the blade to full depth of cut and 0° bevel angle.
3. Locate the three small set screws
screws will be used to adjust the guard assembly position.
4. Lay a straight edge on the table against two blade tips. The splitter
straight edge. If needed, loosen the two larger lock screws
5. Adjust the small set screws
Lay the straight edge on the opposite side of the blade and repeat adjustments as needed.
6. Lightly tighten the two larger lock screws
7. Place a square flat against the splitter to the verify splitter is vertical and in-line with the blade.
8. If needed, use the set screws to bring the splitter vertical with the square.
9. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to verify position of splitter.
10. Fully tighten the two larger lock screws
11. Re-install and lock the throat plate
Parallel Adjustment (Fig. A, I, J, O)
WARNING: A misaligned fence, not parallel to the blade, increases the risk of kickback!
For optimum performance, the blade must be parallel to the rip fence. This adjustment has been
made at the factory. To re-adjust:
Position 1 Fence Alignment
1. Install the fence in position 1 and unlock the rail lock lever
that support the fence on the front and rear rails.
2. Loosen the rear locator pin screw and adjust the alignment of the fence in the groove until
the fence face is parallel to the blade. Make sure you measure from the fence face to the front
and back of the blade to ensure alignment.
3. Tighten the locator screw and repeat on the left side of the blade.
4. Check rip scale pointer adjustment (Fig. J).
Position 2 Fence Alignment
1. To align position 2 fence locator pins
Position 1 Fence Alignment.
2. Loosen the position 2 pins, then using the blade wrench holes as a guide for positioning,
align the pins (Fig. O).
3. Tighten the locator pins (front and rear).
