If you received Table Extensions with your saw (two furnished with Model No. 113.299040

or one furnished

with Model No. 113.298470) attach them at this time.

If you have only one Table Extension, it may be attached to either side.

NOTE: When the Table Extension is attached to the left side, it offers more support to the workpiece, especially

when crosscutting or mitering long boards. When attached to the right side, it offers more support when cutting wide panels.

If you attach the Extension to the left side, be sure to construct the Auxiliary Fence/Work Support and Push

ALIGNING RIP FENCE

The fence should slide easily along the bars and always remain in alignment (parallel to sawblade and miter gauge grooves).

The alignment is ,maintained by a spring underneath the fence which bears against the front guide bar.

To move the fence, loosen the lock handle and grasp the fence with one hand at the front,

For very close adjustments, grasp the guide bar wi;_h both

hands and move the fence with your thumbs.

Place fence on saw but DO NOT LOCK IT.

Move the REAR END of the fence slightly to the right or left ...

when you release it, the fence should "spring" back to its original position.

If it does not, the spring pressure must be INCREASED.

1.

Loosen the screws.

2.

Move Spring slightly toward front of fence.

12

If the fence does not slide easily along the bars, the pressure of the spring can be REDUCED.

1.

Loosen the screws.

2.

Move spring slightly toward rear of fence ...

REPOSITIONING RIP FENCE GUIDE BARS

NOTE: If most of your work does not require 24 in. of rip capacity, the bars may be reposi tioned to allow 12 in. of rip capaGity to the right, or 10-1/2 n. to the left.

The rip scale, however, only reads to the right.

There is a second set of numerals reading from 0 to 12 in.

WORK HELPERS

Before cutting any wood on your saw, study all of the

"Basic Saw Operations".

Notice that in order to make some of the cuts, it is necessary to use certain devices "Work Helpers" like the

Push Stick, the Push Block and the Auxiliary Fence/Work

Support, which you can make yourself.

After you have made a few practice cuts, make up these

"helpers" before starting any projects.

Make the "'Push

Stick" first.

To rip the piece for the push stick, start out with a wide board, say 11-1/2 in. wide and set the rip fence

REPETITIVE CUTTING

REPETITIVE CUTTING is known as cutting a quantity of

_ieces the same length without having to mark each piece.

1. Use the Stop Rods (optional accessory) only for cutting duplicate pieces 6 in. long and longer.

2, DO NOT FEED workpJeee

with RIGHT Hand, merely

guide it, making sure that it does not bind or pinch the sawblade.

When making repetitive cuts from a long workpiece, make

sure it is supported.

Use the AUXILIARY FENCE / WORK SUPPORT for additional support of the workpiece.

Lay it across the guide bars to support the workpiece as near to the end as possible.

Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the miter gaugefor greater accuracy.

24

\

RY FENCE/

WORK SUPPORT

1. NEVER USE THE RIP FENCE AS A LENGTH STOP

BECAUSE THE CUTOFF PIECE COULD BIND

BETWEEN THE FENCE AND THE BLADE CAUSING

A KICKBACK.

2_ When making repetitive cuts shorter than 6 in., clamp a block of wood 3 in. long to the table to act as a length stop.

CAUTION: When clamping the block, make sure that the end of the block is well in front of the sawblade. Be sure it is clamped securely.

3.

Slide the workpiece along the miter gauge until it touches the block ...

hold it securely or clamp it with the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory).

4.

Make the cut ...

pull the workpiece back ...

push the

cut off piece off the table with a Fong push stick ...

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PICK IT UP AS THIS COULD

ENDANGER YOUR HANDS.

MITER CUTTING

MITER CUTTING is known as cutting wood at an angle other than g0° with the edge of the wood. Follow the same procedure as you would for crosscutting•

Adjust the miter gauge to the desired angle, and lock it.

The miter gauge may be used in either of the grooves in the table.

When using the miter gauge in the LEFT Hand groove, hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge head with your left hand, and grip the lock handle with your right•

When using the RIGHT hand groove, hold the workpiece

with your right hand and the Iockhandle with your left hand.

Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the miter gauge for greater accuracy.

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING

BEVEL CROSSCUTTING is the same as crosscutting except that the wood is also cut at an angle ... other than

90 ° with the flat side of the wood.

Adjust the blade to the desired angle.

Use the Miter Gauge in the groove to the RIGHT of the

blade, It cannot be used in the groove to the LEFT because

the blade guard will interfere. Hold the workpiece with your right hand and the Iockhandle with your left hand.

Use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT for additional support of the workpiece,

Lay it across the guide bars to support the workpiece as near to the end as possible,

Use the Hold-Down Clamp (Optional Accessory) on the miter gauge for greater accuracy.

COMPOUND MITER CUTTING

COMPOUND MITER CUTTING is a combination of miter cutting and bevel crosscutting. The cut is made at an angle

other than 90 ° to both the edge and the flat side of the wood.

Adjust the miter gauge and the blade to the desired angle

USING THE RIP FENCE

RIPPING, BEVEL RIPPING, RESAWING AND

RABBETING are performed using the RIP FENCE together

with the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT, PUSH

STICK OR PUSH BLOCK.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, ALWAYS

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

IN ADDITION TO THE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON

PAGES 2, 3, and 4.

2.

3.

4.

Never make these cuts FREEHAND (without using the

rip fence or auxiliary devices when required) because the blade could bind in the cut and cause a

KICKBACK.

Always lock the rip fence securely when in use.

Remove miter gauge from table.

Make sure blade guard is installed for all thru-sawing

type cuts. Replace the guard IMMEDIATELY following completion of resawing, rabbeting, dadoing, or molding operations.

Frequently check the action of the ANTI-KICKBACK

PAWLS by passing the workpiece alongside of the spreader while saw is OFF.

Pull the workpiece TOWARD you. If the PAWLS do not DIG into the workpiece and HOLD it ...

the pawls

...............

See "Maintenance" section.

5.

Have blade extend approximately 1/8 in. above top of workpiece.

Additional blade exposure would increase the hazard potential.

6.

Do not stand directly in front of the blade in case of a

KICKBACK.

Stand to either side of the blade.

7.

Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of the path

of the blade.

8.

If the blade stalls or stops while cutting.

TURN

SWITCH OFF before attempting to free the blade.

9.

Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull the workpiece through the cut ...

to support long or heavy workpieces .... to remove small cut-off pieces of

material or FOR ANY OTHER REASON.

I0. Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off material from the table. REMOVE them by pushing them OFF the table

with a long stick. Otherwise they could be thrown back at you by the rear of the blade.

11. Do not remove small pieces of cut-off material that may become TRAPPED inside the blade guard while the saw is RUNNING.

THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR

HANDS or cause a KICKBACK,

Turn the saw OFF. After the blade has stopped turning, lift the guard and remove the piece.

RIPPING

RIPPING is known as cutting a piece of wood with the grain, or lengthwise. This is done using the rip fence.

Position the fence to the desired WIDTH OF RIP and lock in place.

Before starting to rip, be sure

A.

Rip Fence is parallel to sawblade.

B. Spreader is properly aligned with sawblade.

C. Anti-Kickback pawls are functioning properly.

When ripping LONG BOARDS or LARGE PANELS, always use a work support.

A simple one can be made by clamping a piece of plywood to a sawhorse.

BEVEL RIPPING

When bevel ripping material 6 in. or narrower, use fence on

the right side of the blade ONLY. This will provide more space between the fence and the sawblade for use of a push

stick. If the fence is mounted to the left, the sawblade

guard may interfere with proper use of a push stick.

ALWAYS SUPPORT LONG WORKPIECES

When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 6 in. and WIDER use your

RIGHT Hand to feed the workpiece until it is clear of the table.

Use LEFT hand ONLY to guide the workpiece ... do not

FEED the workpiece with the left hand.

26

When "WIDTH OF RIP" is 2 in. to 6 in. wide USE THE

PUSH STICK to feed the work.

When WIDTH OF RIP is NARROWER than 2 in., the push

stick CANNOT be used because the guard wilt interfere ...

USE the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK SUPPORT and

PUSH BLOCK.

Attach auxiliary fence to rip fence with two "'C'" clamps.

Feed the workpiece by hand until the end is approx.

1 in. from the front edge of the table. Continue to feed usingthe

PUSH BLOCK.

BAFFLE

When ripping narrow strips that may enter the guard and

strike the baffle. CAREFULLY raise guard only enough to

clear the workpiece. Use Push Block to cornplete cut.

27

RESAWING

RESAWING is known as ripping a piece of wood through its thickness.

NOTE: To RESAW a piece of wood wider than 3-3/8 in ....

it will be necessary to remove the blade guard ...

and use the AUXILIARY FENCE/WORK

SUPPORT. [See "Work Helpers").

Do not attempt to resaw BOWED or WARPED material

Clamp it to the table so that the workpiece will SLIDE

EASILY but not TILT or MOVE SIDEWAYS without

BINDING between the two fences.

Do not clamp directly to the bottom edge of the table because the "swivel" of the clamp will not grip properly.

Place a small block or wood between the bottom edge of the table and the "'C" clamp.

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY ...

1.

DO NOT "BACK UP" (REVERSE FEEDING) WHILE

R ESAWING BECAUSE THIS COULD CAUSE A

KICKBACK.

2.

INSTALL BLADE GUARD IMMEDIATELY UPON

COMPLETION OF THE RESAWING OPERATION.

CUTTING PANELS

When cutting panels (whenever fence is positioned outside of table surface), ALWAYS use the AUXILIARY

F ENCE/WO R K SUPPORT.

1.

Unlock fence and raise rear end.

2.

Position AUXILIARY with two "'C'" clamps.

RABBETING

Rabbeting is known as cutting out a section of the corner of a piece of material.

To make a RABBET requires two cuts which do not go all the way through the material, Therefore the blade guard must be removed.

1.

Remove blade guard.

2.

Adjust rip fence and blade to required dimensions.

3.

Make first cut through edge.

Follow resawing procedure.

4.

Remove auxiliary fence and make second cut.
