GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING!

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work area safety

• Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.

Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to

lose control.

WARNING!

To avoid mistakes that could cause serious injury, DO NOT plug in the table saw until you have read and understood the rules.

2) Electrical safety

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.

Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce the risk of electric shock.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.

There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the

risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

Damaged or entangled cords

increase the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of

a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device

(RCD) protected supply.

Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool.

Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Protective equipment such as

a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will

reduce personal injuries.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with

your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.

A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

This enables better control of

the power tool in unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts.

Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.

Use of dust collection devices can reduce dust-related

hazards.

• Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles.

A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) Power tool use and care

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.

The correct power

tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

7


• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

• Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.

Power tools are dangerous in the

hands of untrained users.

• Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are

less likely to bind and are easier to control.

• Use the power tool, accessories, tool bits, etc., in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for

operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

• Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

Slippery handles

and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

5) Service

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This

will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

WARNING!

The use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from the face and body.

Handling the power cord on this product may expose you to chemicals known to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

CAUTION:

Always follow proper operating procedures as defined in this manual — even if you are familiar with use of this or similar tools. Remember that being careless for even a fraction of a second can result in severe personal injury.

WARNING!

To avoid the risk of personal injury, do not modify this power tool or use accessories not recommended to your tool.

WARNING!

Read warnings and conditions about your carbide-tipped saw blade.

WARNING!

Do not operate the saw without the proper blade guard in place for all through cut operations. Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after finishing any non-through cut operations which require removal of the blade guard.

• Carbide is a very hard but brittle material. Care should be taken while mounting, using and storing

carbide tipped blades to prevent accidental damage.

• Slight shocks, such as striking the tip, can seriously damage the blade. Foreign objects on the workpiece,

such as wire or nails, can also cause tips to crack or break off.

• Before using, always visually examine the blade and tips for cracks, breakage, missing or loose tips, or

other damage.

• Do not use if damage is suspected. Failure to heed safety instructions and warnings can result in serious

bodily injury or loss of eyesight.

• Read instruction manual and know your tool.

Read and familiarize yourself with entire instruction

manual. Learning the tool’s proper applications, limitations, and specific potential hazards will greatly

minimize the possiblity of accidents and injury. Make sure all users are familiar with its warnings and

instructions before using tool.

• Guard against electric shock by preventing body contact with grounded surfaces. For

example: pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.

• Keep guards in place and in good working order. Blade guard must be in place for all through cut

operations. Reinstall the blade guard immediately after finishing any non-through cut operations which

require removal of the blade guard. Never operate the saw without the blade guard in place for any cut

which does not require it to be removed. Make sure the blade guard is operating properly before each

use. A guard that is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be repaired or replaced.

• Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard, riving knife or the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

Inadvertent contact of these items with the saw blade could cause a

hazardous condition.

• Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.

Form habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting

wrenches are removed from tool before turning it on.

• Keep work area clean.

Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents. DO NOT leave tools or pieces of

wood on the saw while it is in operation. Distraction or a potential jam can be dangerous.

• Do not use in dangerous environments.

Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations or expose

to rain. Keep the work area well lit. Locate the tool in a level area. It should be installed in an area that

provides enough room to easily handle the size of your workpiece. Cramped, dark areas, and uneven

slippery floors invite accidents.

• Keep children and visitors away.

All visitors should wear safety glasses and be kept a safe distance

from work area. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord while operating.

• Make workshop childproof with padlocks and master switches, or by removing starter keys.

• Don’t force tool.

It will do the job better and safer at the feed rate for which it was designed.

• Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool off immediately, unplug the tool then clear the jam.

Jamming the saw blade by the

9


workpiece can cause kickback or stall the motor.

• Use the right tool.

Don’t force the tool or attachment to do a job it was not designed for. Don’t use it

for a purpose not intended.

• Use the proper extension cord.

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Use only a cord

heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line

voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is

recommended for an extension cord 25' (7.6 m) or less in length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.

The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

• Dress properly.

Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewellery. They can get caught and

draw you into moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended when working

outdoors. Also wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.

• ALWAYS wear safety goggles that comply with United States ANSI Z87.1 and a face shield or dust mask

if operation is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-resistant lenses; they are NOT safety

glasses.

• Secure work.

Use clamps or a vice to hold workpiece when practical. It’s safer than using your hand

and frees both hands to operate tool.

• Don’t overreach.

Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• Maintain tools with care.

Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer performance. Follow

instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

• Disconnect tools.

All tools should be disconnected when not in use, before servicing, or when

changing attachments, blades, bits, cutters, etc. Turn the machine “OFF” before disconnecting tools to

avoid an accidental start when plugging the tools in again. The accidental start may cause serious injury.

Do not touch the terminal or plug’s metal part when inserting or removing the plug from an outlet.

• Do not plug in or pull out from power supply with wet hands to prevent electric shock.

• Use recommended accessories.

Consult the operator’s manual for recommended accessories. The

use of improper accessories may risk injury.

• Never stand on tool.

Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is

unintentionally contacted. Do not use it as a stepping stool.

• Check damaged parts.

Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be

carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for

alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other

conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged must be properly repaired

or replaced by an authorized service centre to avoid risk of personal injury.

• Use the right direction of feed.

Feed workpiece into a blade or cutter against the direction of rotation

of blade or cutter only. Feeding the workpiece in the same direction that the saw blade is rotating above

the table may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.

• Never leave tool running unattended.

Turn the power off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a

complete stop. An unattended running saw is an uncontrolled hazard.

• Protect your lungs.

Wear a face or dust mask if the cutting operation is dusty.

• Protect your hearing.

Wear ear plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation.

• Do not abuse cord.

Never yank cord to disconnect from receptacle. Keep cord away from heat, oil, and

sharp edges.

• When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “w-a” or “w”.

These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

• Always keep the blade guard and spreader (riving knife) in place and in working order for all

through cut operations. Reinstall the blade guard immediately after finishing any non-through cut

operations which require removal of the blade guard.

• Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual.

Incorrect spacing, positioning and

alignment can make the riving knife ineffective in reducing the likelihood of kickback.

• For the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece.

The riving knife and anti-kickback pawls are ineffective when cutting workpieces that are

too short to be engaged with the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls. Under these conditions a kickback

cannot be prevented by the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls.

• Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife.

For the riving knife to function properly, the

saw blade diameter must match the appropriate riving knife and the body of the saw blade must be

thinner than the thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw blade must be wider than

the thickness of the riving knife.

• Keep blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient set.

Sharp blades minimize stalling and kickback.

• Keep hands away from cutting area.

Keep hands away from blades. Do not reach underneath work

or around or over the blade while blade is rotating. Do not attempt to remove cut material when blade is

moving. The material may become trapped between the fence or inside the saw blade guard and the saw

blade pulling your fingers into the saw blade. Turn the saw off and wait until the saw blade stops before

removing material.

• Blade coasts after being turned off.

• Never use in an explosive atmosphere.

Normal sparking of the motor could ignite fumes.

• Inspect tool cords periodically.

If damaged, have repaired by a qualified service technician at an

authorized service facility. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or

without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord

or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Repair or

replace a damaged or worn cord immediately. Stay constantly aware of cord location and keep it well

away from the rotating blade.

• Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged.

• Ground all tools.

If tool is equipped with three-prong plug, it should be plugged into a three-hole

electrical receptacle.

• Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not

completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.

• Use only correct electrical devices: 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and

3-hole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.

• Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualied

electrician.

11


• Keep tool dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never

use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any solvents to clean tool.

• Stay alert and exercise control.

Watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do not operate

tool when you are tired. Do not rush.

• Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on and off.

Have defective switches replaced by an

authorized service centre.

• Use only correct blades.

Do not use blades with incorrect size holes. Never use blade washers or

blade bolts that are defective or incorrect. The maximum blade capacity of your saw is 10" (25.4 cm).

Blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run off-centre causing loss of control.

• Before making a cut, be sure all adjustments are secure.

• Be sure blade path is free of nails.

Inspect for and remove all nails from lumber before cutting.

• Never touch blade or other moving parts during use.

• Firmly mount the tool on a secure surface to ensure its stability before operating the tool.

• Never start a tool when any rotating component is in contact with the workpiece.

• Do not operate a tool while under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any medication.

• When servicing use only identical replacement parts.

Use of any other parts may create a hazard

or cause product damage.

• Use only recommended accessories listed in this manual or addendums. Use of accessories that are

not listed may cause the risk of personal injury. Instructions for safe use of accessories are included

with the accessory.

• Double check all setups.

Make sure blade is tight and not making contact with saw or workpiece

before connecting to power supply.

• Do not allow familiarity (gained from frequent use of your saw) to cause a careless mistake.

Always remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict serious injury. Use extra

caution and keep your attention on your operation when making repetitive cuts. Reduce the monotony of

operations by frequently taking breaks, cleaning up saw dust, or checking the tool's condition.

Safety instructions for table saws

1) Guarding related warnings

• Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working order and be properly mounted. A guard

that is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be repaired or replaced.

• Always use saw blade guard, riving knife and anti-kickback device for every through-cutting operation.

For through-cutting operations where the saw blade cuts completely through the thickness

of the workpiece, the guard and other safety devices help reduce the risk of injury.

• Immediately reattach the guarding system after completing an operation (such as rabbeting, dadoing or resawing cuts) which requires removal of the guard, riving knife and/or anti-kickback device.

The guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback device help to reduce the risk of

injury.

• Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard, riving knife or the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

Inadvertent contact of these items with the saw blade could cause a

hazardous condition.

• Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual.

Incorrect spacing, positioning and

alignment can make the riving knife ineffective in reducing the likelihood of kickback.

• For the riving knife and anti-kickback device to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece.

The riving knife and anti-kickback device are ineffective when cutting workpieces that are

too short to be engaged with the riving knife and anti-kickback device. Under these conditions a

kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and anti-kickback device.

• Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife.

For the riving knife to function properly, the saw

blade diameter must match the appropriate riving knife and the body of the saw blade must be thinner

than the thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw blade must be wider than the

thickness of the riving knife.

2) Cutting procedures warnings

• DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands in the vicinity or in line with the saw blade.

A

moment of inattention or a slip could direct your hand towards the saw blade and result in serious

personal injury.

• Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cutter only against the direction of rotation.

Feeding the workpiece in the same direction that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in

the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.

• Never use the mitre gauge to feed the workpiece when ripping and do not use the rip fence as a length stop when cross cutting with the mitre gauge.

Guiding the workpiece with rip fence

and the mitre guage at the same time increases the likelihood of saw blade binding and kickback.

• When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding force between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick when the distance between the fence and the saw blade is less than

6" (15 cm), and use a push block when this distance is less than 2" (5 cm). “Work helping”

devices will keep your hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.

• Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions.

This push stick provides sufficient distance between the hand and the saw blade.

• Never use a damaged or cut push stick.

A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip

into the saw blade.

• Do not perform any operation “freehand”.

Always use either the rip fence or the mitre gauge to

position and guide the workpiece. “Freehand” means using your hands to support or guide the

workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or mitre gauge. Freehand sawing leads to misalignment, binding and

kickback.

• Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade.

Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental

contact with the moving saw blade.

• Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide workpieces to keep them level.

A long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the

table’s edge causing loss of control, saw blade binding and kickback.

13


• Feed workpiece at an even pace.

Do not bend or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool

off immediately, unplug the tool then clear the jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause

kickback or stall the motor.

• Do not remove pieces of cut-off material while the saw is running.

The material may become

trapped between the fence or inside the saw blade guard and the saw blade pulling your fingers into the

saw blade. Turn the saw off and wait until the saw blade stops before removing material.

• Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top when ripping workpieces less than 1/16"

(2 mm) thick.

A thin workpiece may wedge under the rip fence and create a kickback.

3) Kickback causes and related warnings

Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece due to a pinched, jammed saw blade or misaligned line of cut in the workpiece with respect to the saw blade or when a part of the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other fixed object.

Most frequently during kickback, the workpiece is lifted from the table by the rear portion of the saw blade and is propelled towards the operator.

Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

• Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence.

Kickback may propel the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone

standing in front and in line with the saw blade.

• Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or support the workpiece. Accidental

contact with the saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.

• Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade.

Pressing the workpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.

• Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade.

A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece

against the saw blade and create kickback.

• Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non-through cuts such as rabbeting, dadoing or resawing cuts.

A featherboard helps to control

the workpiece in the event of a kickback.

• Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces.

The

protruding saw blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

• Support large panels to minimise the risk of saw blade pinching and kickback.

Large panels

tend to sag under their own weight. Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel

overhanging the table top.

• Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight edge to guide it with a mitre gauge or along the fence.

A warped, knotted, or

twisted workpiece is unstable and causes misalignment of the kerf with the saw blade, binding and

kickback.

• Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally.

The saw blade could

pick up one or more pieces and cause kickback.

• Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with cracked or broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades minimise binding, stalling

and kickback.

4) Table saw operating procedure warnings

• Turn off the table saw and disconnect the battery pack when removing the table insert, changing the saw blade or making adjustments to the riving knife, anti-kickback device or blade guard, and when the machine is left unattended.

Precautionary measures will avoid

accidents.

• Never leave the table saw running unattended. Turn it off and don’t leave the tool until it comes to a complete stop.

An unattended running saw is an uncontrolled hazard.

• Locate the table saw in a well-lit and level area where you can maintain good footing and balance. It should be installed in an area that provides enough room to easily handle the size of your workpiece.

Cramped, dark areas, and uneven slippery floors invite accidents.

• Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under the saw table and/or the dust collection device.

Accumulated sawdust is combustible and may self-ignite.

• The table saw must be secured.

A table saw that is not properly secured may move or tip over.

• Remove tools, wood scraps, etc., from the table before the table saw is turned on. Distraction

or a potential jam can be dangerous.

• Always use saw blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes.

Saw blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run off-centre causing loss of

control.

• Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mounting means such as flanges, saw blade washers, bolts or nuts.

These mounting means were specially designed for your saw, for safe

operation and optimum performance.

• Never stand on the table saw; do not use it as a stepping stool.

Serious injury could occur if the

tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.

• Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate in the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels, wire brushes, or abrasive wheels on a table saw.

Improper saw blade

installation or use of accessories not recommended may cause serious injury.

• Firmly bolt the saw to a work bench or leg stand at approximately hip height.

• Never operate the saw on the floor.

• Keep guards in place and in good working order. Blade guard must be in place for all through cut

operations. Reinstall the blade guard immediately after finishing any non-through cut operations which

require removal of the blade guard.

• Guard against kickback.

Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly and workpiece is driven back

towards the operator. It can pull your hand into the blade resulting in serious personal injury. Stay out of

blade path and turn switch off immediately if blade binds or stalls.

• Use rip fence.

Always use a fence or straight edge guide when ripping.

15


• Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top when ripping workpieces less than 1/16"

(2 mm) thick.

A thin workpiece may wedge under the rip fence and create a kickback. Support large

panels. To minimize risk of blade pinching and kickback, always support large panels.

• Remove all fences and auxiliary tables before transporting saw. Failure to do so can result in an

accident causing possible serious personal injury.

• Don’t overreach.

Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• Never place arms or hands in line with the path of the cutting blade.

• Always use blade guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback pawls on all through cut operations.

Through cut operations are those in which the blade cuts completely through the workpiece as in ripping

or cross cutting. Keep the blade guard down, the anti-kickback pawls down, and the riving knife in

place. Make sure the blade guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback pawls are reinstalled immediately

after finishing any non-through cut operations which require their removal.

• ALWAYS lock the rip fence and secure bevel adjustment firmly before cutting.

• ALWAYS secure work firmly against the rip fence or mitre gauge.

• ALWAYS use a push stick.

A push stick is a device used to push a workpiece through the blade

instead of using your hands. Size and shape can vary but the push stick must always be narrower than

the workpiece to prevent the push stick from contacting the saw blade. When ripping narrow stock,

always use a push stick so your hand does not come close to the saw blade. Use a featherboard and

push blocks for non-through cuts.

• NEVER perform any operation “freehand” which means using only your hands to support or guide the

workpiece. Always use either the rip fence or mitre fence to position and guide the work.

• Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide workpieces to keep them level.

A long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the

table’s edge causing loss of control, saw blade binding and kickback.

• NEVER stand or have any part of your body in line with the path of the saw blade.

• NEVER reach behind, over, or within 3" (7.6 cm) of the blade or cutter with either hand for any reason.

• Move the rip fence out of the way when cross cutting.

• Do not use the mitre gauge and rip fence during the same operation.

• Never use the mitre gauge to feed the workpiece when ripping and do not use the rip fence as a length stop when cross cutting with the mitre gauge.

Guiding the workpiece with the rip

fence and the mitre gauge at the same time increases the likelihood of saw blade binding and kickback.

• NEVER attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first turning the saw OFF and disconnecting the saw

from the power source.

• Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of the saw table for wide or long workpieces. A wide

or long workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the table’s edge causing loss of control, saw blade

binding and kickback.

• Avoid kickbacks (work thrown back toward you) by:

1. Keeping blade sharp.

2. Keeping rip fence parallel to the saw blade.

3. Keeping spreader, anti-kickback pawls, and blade guard in place and operating.

4. Not releasing the work before it is pushed all the way past the saw blade using a push stick.

5. Not ripping work that is twisted or warped or does not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.

• Never cut metals, cement board, or masonry.

These materials need to be cut by other special tools.

Cutting them with this tool can result in damage to the saw and personal injury.

• If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an

authorized service centre to avoid risk.

• Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to move

into the cutting tool.

• Make sure the work area has ample lighting to see the work and that no obstructions will interfere

with safe operation before performing any work using the table saw.

• Always turn off saw before disconnecting it to avoid accidental starting when reconnecting to power

supply.

• Save these instructions.

Refer to them frequently and use to instruct other users. If you loan someone

this tool, loan them these instructions also.

USE SAFETY GOGGLES AND EAR PROTECTION:

ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION THAT CONFORMS WITH CUL REQUIREMENTS. FLYING

DEBRIS can cause permanent eye damage.

The tool is loud and the sound can cause hearing damage. Always wear ear protection to help prevent hearing damage and loss. Failure to comply may result in moderate injury.

USE DUST MASK:

Some dust created by sawing contains chemicals that are known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals come from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products, and arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber. To reduce exposure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

17

CAUTION:

Follow safety instructions that appear on your saw.


DOUBLE INSULATION

Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric power tools, which eliminates the need for the usual threewire grounded power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation. Double-insulated tools do not need to be grounded.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, double-insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way.

If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Fig. 1

POWER REQUIREMENTS

This tool has a precision-built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts,

60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double check the power supply.

GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS

Use a proper extension cord. Make sure extension cords are in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use a cord that is heavy enough to carry the drawn current needed by the saw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power an overheating.

WARNING!

The double-insulated system is intended to protect the user from shock resulting from a break in the tool’s internal wiring. Observe all normal safety precautions to avoid electric shock.

WARNING!

Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool.

CAUTION!

Servicing of a product with double insulation requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. For service, we suggest you return the tool to your nearest authorized service centre for repair. Always use original factory replacement parts when servicing. Do not use power tools in wet or damp locations or expose them to rain or snow.

The table below shows the correct size to use, depending on the cord length and nameplate amperage rating.

If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Be sure extension cords are properly wired and in good condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified technician before using it. Protect extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

Use a separate electrical circuit for power tools. This circuit must not be less than #14 wire with a 15 Amp time-delayed fuse, and should be protected with a time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the tool to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor’s nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

19

Danger! Keep hands away from blade.

WARNING!

Do not permit fingers to touch the terminal or the plug when installing or removing the plug from an outlet.

WARNING!

To avoid electrical hazards, fire hazards, or damage to the tool, use proper circuit protection.

WARNING!

Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools, or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.

WARNING!

Do not permit fingers to touch the terminal or the plug when installing or removing the plug from an outlet.

Anti-kickback pawls:

Kickback is a hazard in which the workpiece is thrown back toward the operator. The teeth on the 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 scale and bevel indicator:

The easy-to-read scale and indicator on the front of the cabinet shows the exact blade angle.

Saw blade:

For maximum performance, it is recommended that you use the 40-tooth, 10" (25.4 cm) carbide-tipped combination blade provided with your saw. The blade is raised and lowered with the height/bevel adjusting handwheel. Bevel angles are locked with the bevel locking lever.

Blade guard:

The guard is installed over the riving knife. It protects the operator’s hand from being cut while providing a clear view of the material to be cut during through-sawing cuts.

21


Bevel locking lever:

This lever, under the work table surface on the front of the cabinet, locks the angle setting of the blade.

Height/bevel adjusting handwheel:

Located on the front of the cabinet, this handwheel is used to lower and raise the blade for adjustments or blade replacement. The handwheel also makes the adjustment for bevel angles easy.

Rip fence locking handle:

The handle on the front of the rip fence releases or locks the rip fence with respect to the work table.

Mitre gauge:

This mitre gauge aligns the wood for a cross cut. The easy-to-read indicator shows the exact angle for a mitre cut.

Mitre gauge grooves:

The mitre gauge rides in these grooves on either side of the blade.

Front rail:

Front rail provides support for the rip fence.

Rip fence:

The rip fence is a sturdy metal fence that can be locked to the work table to guide the workpiece securely.

Scale:

Located on the front rail, the easy-to-read scale provides precise measurements for rip cuts.

Riving knife:

The riving knife is a metal piece, slightly thinner than the saw blade, used to keep the kerf open to prevent kickback.

Arbour:

The arbour is a shaft on which a blade is mounted.

Work table:

The surface to which the workpiece is attached while cutting.

Overload protection:

The saw is equipped with an overload reset switch to prevent the saw from overload damage. The saw will automatically shut off if the machine experiences overloaded cutting or low voltage. Wait for the motor to cool down for at least five minutes. Press the overload reset switch button to reset the overload switch. After the motor has cooled down, press the green “I”-button on the ON/OFF switch to restart the saw.

Wooden spacer:

The wooden spacer is attached on one side of the rip fence to prevent the material from being caught between the bottom of the rip fence and the work table when ripping material such as thin panelling.

Out-feed support:

The out-feed support is provided at the rear end of the work table. This table can be extended to provide extra support for long workpieces during ripping.

Right extension table:

The extension table is a separate part that is located on the right side of the work table to provide additional support to the operator when cutting a wide workpiece.

Operating components:

The upper portion of the blade projects up through the table and is surrounded by an insert called the table insert. The height of the blade is set with a handwheel on the front of the cabinet.

Detailed instructions are provided in the “Operating Instructions” section of this manual for the basic cuts: cross cuts, mitre cuts, bevel cuts and compound cuts.

The rip fence is used to position work for lengthwise cuts. A scale on the front rail shows the distance between the rip fence and the blade.

It is very important to use the blade guard assembly for all through-sawing operations. The blade guard assembly includes: riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and plastic blade guard.

Applications:

You can use this tool for the purposes listed below:

• Straight-line cutting operations such as cross cutting, ripping, mitring 0-45° mitre angle, bevel

crosscutting 0-45° blade bevel and 90° mitre angle and 0-45° blade bevel and 0-45° mitre angle.

• Dado cuts with optional accessories.

• Cabinet making and woodworking.

23

WARNING!

• Use only 10" (25.4 cm) diameter blades rated at maximum safe operating speeds of

4500 RPM or higher. Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury.

• The blades should always be kept sharp. Use a reputable sharpening service to sharpen

the blades when needed.

• Never store the blades stacked on top of one another. Place material such as cardboard

between them to keep the blades from coming into contact with one another.


Causes of kickback:

Kickback can occur when the blade stalls or binds, causing the workpiece to be kicked back toward the operator with great force and speed. If your hands are near the saw blade, they may be jerked loose from the workpiece and come into contact with the blade. Obviously, kickback can cause serious injury, and it is well worth using precautions to avoid the risks.

Kickback can be caused by any action that pinches the blade in the wood, such as the following:

• Making a cut with incorrect blade depth.

• Sawing into knots or nails in the workpiece.

• Twisting the wood while making a cut.

• Failing to support the workpiece.

• Forcing a cut.

• Cutting warped or wet lumber.

• Using the wrong blade for the type of cut.

• Not following correct operating procedures.

• Misusing the saw.

• Failing to use the anti-kickback pawls.

• Cutting with a dull, gummed-up, or improperly set blade.

Avoiding kickback:

• Always use the correct blade depth setting. The top of the blade teeth should clear the workpiece by

1/8 - 1/4" (3.2 - 6.4 mm).

• Inspect the workpiece for knots or nails before beginning a cut. Knock out any loose knots with a

hammer. Never saw into a loose knot or nail.

• Always use the rip fence when rip cutting and the mitre gauge when crosscutting. This helps to prevent

twisting the wood in the cut.

• Always use clean, sharp, and properly set blades. Never make cuts with dull blades.

• To avoid pinching the blade, support the work properly before beginning a cut.

• When making a cut, use steady, even pressure. Never force cuts.

• Do not cut wet or warped lumber.

• Always hold the workpiece firmly with both hands or with push sticks. Keep your body in a balanced

position to be ready to resist kickback should it occur. Never stand directly in line with the blade.

• Use the right type of blade for the cut being made.

NOTE:

This table saw is designed to cut wood and wood composition products only. Depending on the shape of the panel, use the rip fence or mitre gauge.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

WARNING!

Before using the saw, verify the following each and every time:

• ALWAYS wear proper eye, hearing and respiratory equipment.

• Blade is securely tightened.

• Bevel locking lever is locked.

• If ripping, ensure that rip fence locking handle is locked and that the fence is parallel to the

blade.

• If crosscutting, mitre gauge lock knob is securely tightened.

• The blade guard assembly is properly attached and the anti-kickback assembly is functioning.

• Have push sticks available and accessible.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, have push stick ready to use before starting cut.

WARNING!

Feed the workpiece into the saw blade only against the direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece in the same direction that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.

WARNING!

When the tool is in maintenance or servicing or not in use, ALWAYS turn off saw and unplug the saw. The saw will automatically shut down when in a power failure, restart the machine by pressing the green "I" button on the on/off switch.

WARNING!

ALWAYS make sure your workpiece is not in contact with the blade before operating the switch to start the saw. Blade contact could result in kickback or thrown workpiece.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of accidental starting, ALWAYS make sure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging saw into the power source.

WARNING!

DO NOT use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in serious personal injury.

WARNING!

The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Always wear safety goggles or standard safety glasses with side shields complying with United States ANSI Z87.1 before commencing power tool operation.

WARNING!

Never operate the saw with the blade guard removed except for dado and other non-through cuts.

Reinstall the blade guard immediately after finishing any non-through cut operations which require removal of the blade guard. Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury.

APPLICATIONS

You can use this tool for the purposes listed below:

• Straight-line cutting operations, such as crosscutting, ripping, mitring, and compound cutting.

• Dado with optional accessories.

CAUTION!

This table saw is designed to cut wood and wood composition products only. Never cut metals, cement board, or masonry.

OPERATING COMPONENTS

• The upper portion of the blade projects up through the table and is surrounded by an insert called the

table insert. The height of the blade is set with a height-adjusting knob on the height/bevel adjusting

handwheel. Detailed instructions are provided in this manual for the basic cut: cross cuts, mitre cuts,

bevel cuts, and compound cuts.

• The rip fence is used to position workpiece for lengthwise cuts.

• It’s very important to use the riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and blade guard for all through-cut

sawing operations.

CAUSES OF KICKBACK

Kickback can occur when the blade stalls or binds, causing the workpiece to be kicked back toward the operator with great force and speed. If your hands are near the saw blade, they may be jerked loose from the workpiece and come into contact with the blade. Obviously, kickback can cause serious injury, and it is well worth using precautions to avoid the risks. Kickback can be caused by any action that pinches the blade in the wood, such as the following:

• Making a cut with incorrect blade depth.

• Sawing into knots or nails in the workpiece.

• Twisting the wood while making a cut.

• Failing to support the workpiece.

• Forcing a cut.

• Cutting warped or wet lumber.

• Using the wrong blade for the type of cut.

• Not following correct operating procedures.

• Misusing the saw.

• Failing to use the anti-kickback pawls.

• Cutting with a dull, gummed-up, or improperly set blade.

49


AVOIDING KICKBACK

Kickback can be avoided by taking following proper precautions:

• Always use the correct blade depth setting. The top of the blade teeth should clear the workpiece by

1/8" (3 mm) to 1/4" (6 mm).

• Inspect the work for knots or nails before beginning a cut. Knock out any loose knots with a hammer.

Never saw into a loose knot or nail.

• Always use the rip fence when rip cutting. Use the mitre gauge when cross cutting. This helps prevent

twisting the wood in the cut.

• Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against

the saw blade and create kickback.

• Always use a clean, sharp, and properly set blade. Never make cuts with a dull blade. Never use a

warped saw blade or saw blade with cracked or broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades

minimize binding, stalling and kickback.

• To avoid pinching the blade, support the workpiece properly before beginning a cut.

• Support large panels to minimize the risk of saw blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag

under their own weight. Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel overhanging the table

top.

• When making a cut, use steady, even pressure. Never force cuts.

• Do not cut wet or warped lumber.

• Use extra caution when cutting some prefinished or composition wood products as the anti-kickback

pawls may not always be effective.

• Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw

blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

• Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight

edge to guide it with a mitre gauge or along the fence. A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is

unstable and causes misalignment of the kerf with the saw blade, binding and kickback.

• Always guide your workpiece with both hands or with push sticks and/or push blocks. Keep your body in

a balanced position to be ready to resist kickback should it occur. Never stand directly in line with the

blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence. Kickback may propel

the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with the saw blade.

• Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or to support the workpiece. Accidental contact with

the saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.

• Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the

workpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.

• Use of a featherboard will help hold the workpiece securely against the saw table or fence when making

non-through cuts such as rabbets or dado cuts. A featherboard helps to control the workpiece in the

event of a kickback.

• Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one

or more pieces and cause kickback.

• Clean the saw, blade guard, under the table insert, and any areas where saw dust or scrap workpieces

may gather.

• Use the right type of blade for the cut being made.

• Always use the riving knife for every operation where it is allowed. The use of this device will greatly

reduce the risk of kickback.

CUTTING AIDS

Cutting aids such as push stick, push blocks, featherboards and jigs should be used where appropriate to maximize your ability to control your workpiece for a safe and precise cut. When making non-through cuts or ripping narrow stock, always use a push stick, push block, featherboard and/or jig set-up so hands do not come within 6" (15 cm) of blade.

A push stick is included with your saw. Additional push sticks and other cutting aids can be purchased separately at any authorized dealer. A push block has a handle fastened by recessed screws from the underside. Use push blocks for narrow cuts and all non-through cuts. Instructions for making cutting aids can be found in a later section.

PUSH STICK

Push stick can be purchased or made to securely hold down the workpiece against the table when making non-through cuts or ripping narrow stock. The stick must be narrower than the workpiece, with a 90° notch in one end and shaped for a grip on the other end.

51

WARNING!

Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions. This push stick provides sufficient distance of the hand from the saw blade.

WARNING!

Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip into the saw blade.


HOW TO MAKE AN ADDITIONAL PUSH STICK

(Fig. 28a-28b)

Included standard push stick

• In order to operate your table saw safely, you must

use a push stick whenever the size or shape of the

workpiece would otherwise cause your hands to be

within 6" (15 cm) of the saw blade or other cutter.

A push stick is included with this saw (Fig. 28a).

• No special wood is needed to make additional push

sticks as long as it’s sturdy and long enough. Make

sure that a push stick is long enough and has a notch

that fits against the edge of the workpiece to prevent

slipping. It’s a good idea to have several push sticks of

the same length with different size notches for

different workpiece thicknesses.

• The shape can vary to suit your own needs as long as

it performs its intended function of keeping your hands

away from the blade.

PUSH BLOCKS

Push blocks are blocks used to securely hold down the workpiece against the table. They include some gripping surface or handle to hold the block. Any screws running through the underside of the block to fasten the handle should be recessed in order to avoid contact with the workpiece.

HOW TO MAKE A PUSH BLOCK (Fig. 29)

• Select a piece of wood about 4" wide, 6" long and 1 to

2" thick (10 cm W, 15 cm L, and 2.5 to 5 cm thick). A

cutoff from a 2 x 4" (5 x 10 cm) makes a good blank

for a push block.

• Drill a hole in the block and glue in a dowel to use as a

handle (you can angle the hole to provide a more

comfortable grip on the handle).

• To finish off the block, glue a piece of sandpaper or

some kind of rubber material (old mouse pads work

well) to the bottom of the block.

WARNING!

Use a push block when the distance between the fence and the saw blade is less than 2" (5 cm).

Featherboards

A featherboard is a device used to help control the workpiece by guiding it securely against the table or rip fence. Featherboards are especially useful when ripping small workpieces and for completing non-through cuts. The end is angled with a series of narrow slots to give a friction hold on the workpiece. It is locked in place on the table with a C-clamp. Test to ensure it can resist kickback.

HOW TO MAKE A FEATHERBOARD (Fig. 30)

• The featherboard is an excellent project for the saw.

Select a solid piece of lumber approximately 3/4"

thick, 2 1/2" wide, and 12" long (2 cm thick, 6 cm

wide, and 30 cm long).

3/4"

(2 cm)

2 1/2"

(60 cm)

4" (10 cm)

• Mark the centre width on one end of stock. Mitre

width to 70° ( see mitre cut section for information on

mitre cuts).

• Set rip fence to allow approximately a 1/4" (6 mm)

70°

“finger” to be cut in the stock.

• Feed the stock only to the mark previously made at 4" (10 cm).

• Turn saw off and allow blade to completely stop rotating before removing stock.

• Reset rip fence and cut spaced rips into workpiece to allow approximately 1/4" (6 mm) fingers with

1/8" (3 mm) spaces between fingers.

Fig. 30

HOW TO MOUNT A FEATHERBOARD (FIG. 31)

Push block

• Completely lower the saw blade. Position the rip fence

(1) to the desired adjustment for the cut to be

performed and lock.

• Place the workpiece (2) against the fence and over

the saw blade area. Adjust the featherboard (3) to

apply resistance to the workpiece just forward of the

blade. Attach C-clamps (4) (not included) to further

secure the featherboard to the edge of the saw table.

Fig. 31

53

WARNING!

When using a featherboard, it must be mounted in front of the blade and used only against the uncut portion of the workpiece to avoid a kickback that could result in serious injury.

WARNING!

Do not locate the featherboard to the rear of the workpiece. If positioned improperly, kickback can result from the featherboard pinching the workpiece and binding the blade in the saw kerf. Failure to heed this warning can result in serious personal injury.


AUXILIARY FENCE

An auxiliary fence is a device used to close the gap between rip fence and working table. ALWAYS make and use an auxiliary fence when ripping material 1/8" (3 mm) or thinner to prevent stock from slipping under fence.

HOW TO MAKE AND ATTACH AN AUXILIARY

FENCE (FOR RIP CUTTING THIN WORKPIECE)

(Fig. 32)

• Select a piece of wood 3/4" (2 cm) thick, 2 3/8"

(6 cm) wide, and as long as the rip fence.

• Drill a 1/4" (6 mm) hole, 1" (25 mm) from each

end and 1 1/8" (28.5 mm) from bottom of the rip

fence

• Drill a 1/4" (6 mm) hole in the middle rip fence 1/2"

(12.5 mm) from bottom of rip fence.

• Attach auxiliary fence (1) to the rip fence (2); place

wood against rip fence and firmly on the working

table.

• From back side of rip fence, secure wood to fence

using wood screws (3) (not included).

THROUGH CUTS

WARNING!

Always make sure the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls are in place and working properly when making these cuts to avoid possible injury.

WARNING!

Use extra caution when cutting wood products having slippery surface as the anti-kickback pawls may not always be effective.

WARNING!

DO NOT use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury.

WARNING!

To avoid kickback, make sure one side of the workpiece is securely against the rip fence during any rip cut, and hold the workpiece firmly against the mitre gauge during any mitre cut.

WARNING!

DO NOT attempt compound mitre cuts, with blade bevelled and mitre fence angled, until you are thoroughly familiar with the basic cuts and understand how to avoid kickback.

WARNING!

DO NOT attempt to make any cuts not covered here.

WARNING!

Using rip fence as a cutoff gauge when cross cutting will result in kickback which can cause serious personal injury.

WARNING!

NEVER make freehand cuts (cuts without mitre gauge or rip fence). Unguided workpieces can result in serious injury.

WARNING!

Never make through cuts without the blade guard in place. Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury.

CUTTING TIPS

Dado and rabbet cuts are non-through cuts which can be either rip cuts or cross cuts. Carefully read and understand all sections of this operator’s manual before attempting any operation.

• The kerf (the cut made by the blade in the wood) will be wider than the blade to avoid overheating or

binding. Make allowance for the kerf when measuring wood.

• Make sure the kerf is made on the waste side of the measuring line.

• Cut the wood with the finish side up.

• Knock out loose knots before making cut.

• Always provide proper support for wood as it comes out of saw.

WARNING!

Do not use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury.

MAKING CUTS

WARNING!

Before making any cuts, make sure that the table saw stand is on a firm, level surface where there is plenty of room to handle and properly support the table saw and the workpiece. If a suitable location can not be found, then the saw should not be used. Operating the saw in a location that does not provide adequate space and stable footing for the table saw stand could create a tipping hazard which could result in serious personal injury.

WARNING!

DO NOT attempt to make any cuts not covered in this manual, and this tool is not permitted for making cuts for other commercial purposes. Failure to heed this warning will result in serious personal injury.

55


• The blade provided with the saw is a high-quality combination blade suitable for ripping and cross cut

operations. Carefully check all setups and rotate the blade one full revolution to assure proper clearance

before connecting saw to power source. Stand slightly to the side of the blade path to reduce the

chance of injury should kickback occur.

WARNING!

Do not use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury.

• Use the mitre gauge when making cross, mitre, bevel, and compound mitre cuts. To secure the angle,

lock the mitre gauge in place by twisting the lock knob clockwise. Always tighten the lock knob securely

in place before use.

WARNING!

Never use the fence and mitre gauge together. This may cause a kickback condition and injury to the operator.

CAUTION!

It is recommended that you place the piece to be saved on the left side of the blade and that you make a test cut on scrap wood first.

TYPES OF CUTS (Fig. 33)

There are six basic cuts: 1) the cross cut, 2) the rip cut, 3) the mitre cut, 4) the bevel cross cut, 5) the bevel rip cut, and 6) the compound (bevel) mitre cut.

Mitre cut

Cross cut

Rip cut

Compound (bevel) mitre cut

Fig. 33 Bevel cross cut Bevel rip cut

CAUTION!

All other cuts are combinations of these basic six. Operating procedures for making each kind of cut are given later in this section.

WARNING!

Always make sure the blade guard is in place and working properly when making these cuts to avoid possible injury.

Cross cuts are straight 90° cuts made across the grain of the workpiece. The wood is fed into the cut at a

90° angle to the blade, and the blade is vertical.

Rip cuts are made with the grain of the wood. To avoid kickback while making a rip cut, make sure one side of the wood rides firmly against the rip fence.

Mitre cuts are made with the wood at any angle to the blade other than 90°. The blade is vertical. Mitre cuts tend to “creep” during cutting. This can be controlled by holding the workpiece securely against the mitre gauge.

WARNING!

Always use a push stick with small pieces of wood, and also to finish the cut when ripping a long narrow piece of wood, to prevent your hands from getting close to the blade.

Bevel cuts are made with a blade set at an angle. Bevel cross cuts are across the wood grain, and bevel rip cuts are with the grain.

Compound (or bevel) mitre cuts are made with a blade set at an angle on wood that is angled to the blade. Be thoroughly familiar with making cross cuts, rip cuts, bevel cuts, and mitre cuts before trying a compound mitre cut.

MAKING A CROSS CUT

• Remove the rip fence.

• Set the blade to the correct depth for the workpiece.

• Set the mitre gauge to 0° and tighten the lock knob.

• Make sure the wood is clear of the blade before turning on the saw.

• To turn saw on, press the green “I”-Button on the on/off switch.

• To turn saw off, press the red “0”-Button on the on/off switch.

• Let the blade build up to full speed before moving the workpiece into the blade.

• Hold the workpiece firmly with both hands on the mitre gauge and feed the workpiece into the blade.

CAUTION!

The hand closest to the blade should be placed on the mitre gauge lock knob and the hand farthest from the blade should be placed on the workpiece.

• When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing

the workpiece.

57

WARNING!

Make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and working properly to avoid possible serious injury.

WARNING!

Using the rip fence as a cutoff gauge when cross cutting will result in kickback which can cause serious personal injury.


MAKING A RIP CUT

WARNING!


• Set blade to correct depth for workpiece.

• Position the rip fence the desired distance from the blade for the cut and securely lock the handle.

• When ripping a long workpiece, slide the rear out-feed support to fully extend.

• Install a featherboard in the appropriate position for the cut being made.


• Turn the saw on.

• Position workpiece flat on table with edge flush against rip fence. Let blade build up to full speed before

feeding workpiece into blade.

• Once blade has made contact with workpiece, use hand closest to rip fence for guidance. Make sure

edge of workpiece remains in solid contact with both rip fence and surface of table. If ripping a narrow

piece, attach the sub fence assembly to rip fence, use push stick and/or push blocks to move piece

through cut and past blade.

• When cut is complete, turn saw off. Wait for blade to come to a complete stop before removing

workpiece.

WARNING!

When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding force between the fence and the saw blade.

Use a push stick when the distance between the fence and the saw blade is less than 6" (15 cm), and use a push block when this distance is less than 2" (5 cm). Cutting aids will keep your hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.

MAKING A MITRE CUT

• Remove rip fence.


• Set mitre gauge to the desired angle and tighten lock knob.




• Hold the workpiece firmly when feeding the workpiece into the blade.

CAUTION!

WARNING!


MAKING A NON-THROUGH CUT

Non-through cuts (made with a standard 10" (25.4 cm) blade) can be made with the grain (ripping) or across the grain (cross cut). The use of a non-through cut is essential to cutting grooves, rabbets, and dadoes. This is the only type cut that is made without the blade guard assembly installed. Make sure the blade guard assembly is reinstalled upon completion of this type of cut. Read the appropriate section which describes the type of cut in addition to this section on non-through or dado cuts. For example, if your non-through cut is a straight cross cut, read and understand the section on straight cross cuts before proceeding.

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of serious injury when making non-through cuts, follow all applicable warnings and instructions listed below in addition to those listed above for the relevant through cut.

WARNING!

When making a non-through cut, the blade is covered by the workpiece during most of the cut. Be alert to the exposed blade at the start and finish of every cut to reduce the risk of personal injury.

WARNING!

Never feed wood with your hands when making any non-through cut such as rabbets or dadoes.

To avoid personal injury, always use push blocks, push sticks, and featherboards.

WARNING!

Read the appropriate section which describes the type of cut in addition to this section on non-through cuts. For example, if your non-through cut is a straight cross cut, read and understand the section on straight cross cuts before proceeding.

WARNING!

Once all dado and non-through cuts are completed, unplug saw and reinstall riving knife in uppermost position. Install anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.


• Remove the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.

• Place riving knife in “middle” position.


• Adjust the bevel angle to 0°.
