Blade Requirements

The spreader/riving knife included with this machine

is 0.09" (2.3mm) thick and is designed for 12" diameter

blades only.

When choosing a standard blade, make sure the blade

size meets the requirements listed below. (This does not

apply to dado blades.) The thickness of the blade body

and teeth can be measured with calipers or any precision

measuring device.

Blade Size Requirements:

•

Body Thickness: 0.074"–0.082"

(1.9mm–2.1mm)

•

Kerf (Tooth) Thickness: 0.114"–0.122" (2.9mm–

Blade Guard

This update provides all installation and adjustment infor-

mation relevant to the new blade guard. The term "blade

guard" refers to the assembly that consists of the clear

polycarbonate shield, the spreader, and the anti-kickback

pawls on each side of the spreader (see Figure 4).

:c\XiꢀJ_`\c[

Jgi\X[\i

Guard

8ek`$B`ZbYXZbꢀGXnc

The clear polycarbonate guard allows the operator to

see the blade cut the workpiece during operation. This

guard is designed to lift as the workpiece is pushed into

the blade and remain in contact with the workpiece

throughout the entire cut.

Figure 4. Anatomy of the new blade guard

now supplied with the table saw.

The guard reduces injury risk by providing a barrier

around the blade that helps prevent accidental contact

and contact from flying wood chips.

To ensure that the guard does its job effectively, it must

always be in the downward position against the table

during idle operation, and the hinge mechanism must be

maintained in good working condition so the guard can

freely pivot up and down to accommodate the height of

the workpiece and return to the table surface.

Spreader

The spreader is a metal plate that prevents the newly cut

kerf of the workpiece from pinching the backside of the

blade, causing kickback.

The spreader also acts as a barrier behind the blade to

shield hands from being pulled into the blade if kickback

occurs.

Model W1761/W1762 (M-1/10, S7/10+)

In order to work properly, the spreader or riving

knife cannot be bent or misaligned with the blade. If

either of these gets accidentally bent, DISCONNECT

SAW FROM POWER, and straighten or replace it.

Using a bent or misaligned spreader will increase

the risk of kickback! Refer to Page 8 to check/adjust

alignment if necessary.

Installing Blade Guard & Spreader

1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the table insert.

3. Insert the spreader into the bracket slot and tight-

en the lock knob shown in Figure 5 to secure the

spreader.

Lock Knob

4. Tug the spreader up to verify it is locked.

Figure 5. Location to secure blade guard.

5. Lift the blade guard cover just enough to slide the

table insert into the table slot over the blade, then

secure the insert with the screw at the front of the

insert.

The blade guard, when properly installed, should

look like Figure 6 and should pivot freely so it

touches the table surface in the down position. It

should also swing up high enough to accommodate

the workpiece.

Screw

6. Check to make sure the blade is 90° to the table.

Follow the instructions in the original manual for

setting the 90° stop bolt.

— If the spreader/riving knife is not inside the align-

ment zone and not parallel with the blade, then it

needs to be adjusted (refer to Page 8).

— If the spreader/riving knife is not parallel with

the blade, it may be bent. Proceed to "Checking

Alignment" on Page 8 to determine if the spread-

er/riving knife is bent.

Anti-Kickback Pawls

Anti-kickback pawls allow the workpiece to travel in only

one direction. If the workpiece moves backwards, such as

from kickback, the pawls will dig into the workpiece to

slow or stop it.

Knob

To work properly, the pawls must return to their bottom-

most position after pivoting, as shown in Figure 8.

Pawl

Note: The right pawl is designed to tilt slightly away

from the blade guard assembly to prevent the pawl from

catching in the table insert.

Figure 8. Pawls in return position.

If the pawls fail to return to the bottom position or parts

are binding, the pivot spring may have been dislodged or

broken and will need to be fixed/replaced.

We do not recommend removing the

pawls during normal operations unless

absolutely necessary. In most situa-

tions, removing the pawls will increase

your risk of serious personal injury in

the event of kickback.

Removing Pawls

You might remove the pawls if you are concerned

about them scratching a delicate workpiece, or if you

believe that they will obstruct a narrow workpiece and

cause feeding difficulty or loss of control. Use your

best judgment before removing the pawls, as they are

provided for your safety.

To remove the pawls, do these steps:

1. Loosen the knob on top of the spreader several

Button

turns, then remove the blade guard assembly.

2. Press the button (Figure 9) on the block that holds

the pawls, then remove the pawls from the spreader.

Pawl

3. Re-install the blade guard onto the spreader, making

sure the front and back pins on the blade guard slide

all the way into the spreader slots, then tighten the

top knob to secure the guard.

Re-installing Pawls

1. Loosen the knob on top of the spreader, then remove

Groove

the blade guard.

2. Slide the pin in the pawl block into the second

groove from the front of the spreader, as shown in

Figure 10.

3. Press the button on the pawl block shown in Figure

9, then pivot the pawls down until they lock into

place.

Figure 10. Re-installing pawls.

4. Re-install the blade guard onto the spreader and

secure with the top knob.

When to Use the Blade Guard

The blade guard assembly MUST always be installed on

the saw for all normal through cuts (those where the

blade cuts all the way through the thickness of the

workpiece).

When Not to Use the Blade Guard

The blade guard cannot be used for any non-through

cuts (those in which the blade does not cut all the way

through the thickness of the workpiece).

Sometimes the blade guard or its components can get in

the way when cutting very narrow workpieces or other

specialized cuts. Because the blade guard is provided to

decrease your risk of injury, it should not be used if it

gets in the way of making a safe cut. Use good judgment!

IMPORTANT: Whenever the blade guard cannot be used,

the riving knife must be installed.

Model W1761/W1762 (M-1/10, S7/10+)

Riving Knife

The riving knife works in the same manner as the spreader

on the blade guard assembly. It is a metal plate that pre-

vents the newly cut workpiece from pinching the backside

of the blade and causing kickback.

D`e`dldꢀ(dd

DXo`dldꢀ,dd

?\`^_kꢀ;`]]\i\eZ\

The key difference between the spreader and the riving

knife is that the riving knife mounts below the blade's high-

est point of rotation, as shown in Figure 11.

I`m`e^

Be`]\

The height difference between the riving knife and the

blade allows the workpiece to pass over the blade during

non-through cuts (those in which the blade does not cut all

the way through the thickness of the workpiece).

Figure 11. Height difference between

riving knife and blade.

Kfgꢀ;`jkXeZ\

D`e`dldꢀ*dd

DXo`dldꢀ/dd

The riving knife acts as a barrier behind the blade to

reduce the risk of hands being pulled into the blade if

kickback occurs. The riving knife must be kept within the

range shown in Figure 12. For that reason, a 12" blade is

required for operations that use a riving knife.

I`m`e^

Be`]\

9fkkfdꢀ;`jkXeZ\

D`e`dldꢀ*dd

DXo`dldꢀ/dd

Installing Riving Knife

The riving knife installs in a similar manner to the blade

guard and spreader. Refer to Blade Guard on Page 3 for

installation instructions.

KXYc\

Figure 12. Allowable top and bottom

distances between riving knife and blade.

When to Use the Riving Knife

Use the riving knife for all non-through cuts made with a

standard table saw blade (i.e., dadoes or rabbet cuts, and

when using a tenoning jig), or when using a 12" diameter

dado blade.

To ensure that the riving knife works

safely, it MUST be aligned with and

correctly adjusted to the blade. Refer

to Page 8 to check or adjust the riving

knife alignment.

Also, use the riving knife for those special operations

where the blade guard or its components get in the way

of safe operation, such as with very narrow cuts.

When Not to Use the Riving Knife

Do not use the riving knife with a dado blade that has

a diameter smaller than 12" in diameter. Otherwise, the

riving knife height will exceed the blade height and the

workpiece will hit the riving knife during the cut, forcing

the operator into a dangerous situation of trying to turn

the saw off with the workpiece stuck halfway through the

cut.

In addition, although it is possible to use the riving knife

for through cutting operations, the blade guard assembly

offers far more injury protection and risk reduction than

the riving knife. Therefore, we strongly recommend that

you use the blade guard assembly instead of the riving

knife for through cuts.

Optional Table Insert

Zero clearance inserts reduce tearout and increase user

safety. These inserts can be customized to fit a specific

blade height or blade angle for the applicable cutting

operation.

Zero-clearance table inserts may be available for the

Model W1761/W1762 through your local Woodstock

International Inc. Dealer. If you do not have a dealer

in your area, a zero-clearance insert can be purchased

through an online dealer. Please call or e-mail Woodstock

International Inc. Customer Service to get a current listing

of dealers at:

1-800-840-8420 or at [email protected].

If you plan on using a dado blade with your saw, you need

to purchase an additional zero-clearance table insert for

the dado blade.

IMPORTANT: Zero-clearance inserts cut with a dado blade

should not be used later with a standard blade. Not only

will you lose the benefits of having zero clearance, the

large gaps around the blade could increase your risk of

injury. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you

have a dedicated table insert for each dado width.

10. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and secure the anti-start switch

safety pin.

11. NEVER LEAVE WHEN MACHINE IS RUNNING. Turn power off and allow all moving parts to come to

a complete stop before leaving machine unattended.

12. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use machinery in damp, wet locations, or

where any flammable or noxious fumes may exist.

13. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIT. Clutter and dark shadows may cause accidents.

14. USE A GROUNDED EXTENSION CORD RATED FOR THE MACHINE AMPERAGE. Undersized cords over-

heat and lose power. Replace extension cords if they become damaged. DO NOT use extension cords

for 220V machinery.

15. ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING MACHINERY. Make sure switch is

in OFF position before reconnecting.

16. MAINTAIN MACHINERY WITH CARE. Keep blades sharp and clean for best and safest performance.

Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

17. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking for keys and adjusting

wrenches before turning machinery ON.

18. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS BEFORE USING MACHINERY. Check for binding and alignment of

parts, broken parts, part mounting, loose bolts, and any other conditions that may affect machine

operation. Repair or replace damaged parts.

The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.

20. DO NOT FORCE MACHINERY. Work at the speed for which the machine or accessory was designed.

21. SECURE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece when practical. A secured

workpiece protects your hands and frees both hands to operate the machine.

22. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

23. MANY MACHINES WILL EJECT THE WORKPIECE TOWARD THE OPERATOR. Know and avoid condi-

tions that cause the workpiece to "kickback."

24. ALWAYS LOCK MOBILE BASES (IF USED) BEFORE OPERATING MACHINERY.

25. BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN DUST MAY BE HAZARDOUS to the respiratory systems of people and

animals, especially fine dust. Make sure you know the hazards associated with the type of dust you

will be exposed to and always wear a respirator approved for that type of dust.

Additional Safety for Table Saws

READ and understand this

entire instruction manual

before using this machine.

Serious personal injury

may occur if safety and

operational information is

not understood and fol-

lowed. DO NOT risk your

safety by not reading!

USE this and other machinery with caution

and respect. Always consider safety first,

as it applies to your individual working

conditions. No list of safety guidelines can

be complete—every shop environment is

different. Failure to follow guidelines could

result in serious personal injury, damage

to equipment or poor work results.

1. SAFETY GUARDS. Always use the blade guard, splitter, and anti-kickback fingers on ''through-saw-

ing'' operations. The blade cuts completely through the top of the workpiece on through-sawing

operations.

2. KICKBACK. Be familiar with kickback. Kickback happens when the workpiece is thrown towards

the operator at a high rate of speed. Until you have a clear understanding of kickback and how it

occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw!

3. REACHING OVER SAW BLADE. Never reach behind or over the blade while the saw is running;

hands or arms could be pulled into the saw blade if kickback occurs.

4. WORKPIECE CONTROL. Make sure the workpiece is stable on the table and is supported by the rip

fence or the miter gauge during cutting operations. DO NOT perform any cutting operations free-

hand.

5. SAFETY ACCESSORIES. Use push sticks, hold-downs, featherboards, and other devices to increase

cutting safety.

6. OPERATOR POSITION. Never stand or have any part of your body directly in-line with the cutting

path of the saw blade.

7. COMFORTABLE POSITION. Avoid operations and hand positions where a slip could cause your hand

to move into the blade.

8. CROSSCUTTING. Remove the rip fence whenever using the miter gauge to crosscut a workpiece.

9. CUT-OFF PIECES. Stop the blade before removing cut-off pieces.

10. BLADE HEIGHT. Always adjust the blade to the proper height above the workpiece.

11. WORKPIECE SUPPORT. Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of the saw table for wide

or long workpieces.

12. DAMAGED SAW BLADES. Never use blades that have been dropped or otherwise damaged.

13. DADOS AND RABBET OPERATIONS. Dado and rabbeting operations require special attention

because those operations must be performed with the blade guard removed. Be especially aware

of your personal safety whenever operating saw with the guard removed, and always immediately

replace the blade guard after these operations are complete.

Preventing Kickback

Below are tips to avoid the most common causes of

kickback:

Statistics show that most common

accidents among table saw users can

be linked to kickback. Kickback is

typically defined as the high-speed

expulsion of stock from the table

saw toward its operator. In addition

to the danger of the operator or

others in the area being struck by

the flying stock, it is often the case

that the operator’s hands are pulled

into the blade during the kickback.

•

Only cut workpieces with at least one smooth and

straight edge. DO NOT cut warped, cupped or twist-

ed wood.

•

Never attempt freehand cuts (see Figure 2). If the

workpiece is not fed parallel with the blade, a kick-

back will likely occur. Always use the rip fence or

miter gauge to support the workpiece.

•

Make sure the splitter or riving knife is aligned

with the blade. A misaligned splitter can cause the

workpiece to catch or bind, increasing the chance

of kickback. If you think that your splitter is not

aligned with the blade, check it immediately!

•

Take the time to check and adjust the rip fence

parallel with the blade; otherwise, the chances of

kickback are extreme.

Use the splitter or riving knife for all "through cuts"

(see Figure 3). The splitter or riving knife maintains

the kerf in the workpiece, reducing the chance of

kickback.

•

Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime you stop

feeding a workpiece in the middle of a cut, the

chance of kickback is greatly increased.

Keep the blade guard installed and in good working

order. Only remove it when performing non-through

cuts and immediately re-install the blade guard when

finished with the non-through cut.

Figure 2. Do not freehand cuts.

•

Make multiple, shallow passes when performing a

non-through cut. Making a deep non-through cut will

greatly increase the chance of kickback.

Figure 3. Do not make through cuts without

the blade guard/splitter or riving knife in

place.

W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

Protecting Yourself from

Kickback

Even if you know how to prevent kickback, it may still

happen. Here are some tips to protect yourself if kick-

back DOES occur:

•

Stand to the side of the blade during every cut

(Figure 4). If a kickback does occur, the thrown

workpiece usually travels directly in front of the

blade.

•

Wear safety glasses or a face shield. In the event of

a kickback, your eyes and face are the most vulner-

able part of your body.

Never, for any reason, place your hand behind the

blade. Should kickback occur, your hand will be

pulled into the blade.

Figure 4. Do not stand directly behind

blade when making a cut.

Use a push stick to keep your hands farther away

from the moving blade (see Figure 5). If a kickback

occurs, the push stick will most likely take the dam-

age that your hand would have received.

•

Use featherboards or anti-kickback devices to pre-

vent or slow down kickback (see Figure 6).

Figure 5. Use a push stick when ripping

narrow pieces.

Figure 6. Use featherboards when possible

to protect against kickback.

Common Terms

In order to increase user safety awareness and understanding, we have provided a list of common terms

associated with table saws. We will refer to many of these terms throughout this manual, so the time you

spend learning these terms will result in an increased knowledge of table saw applications.

Arbor: A metal shaft extending from the drive

mechanism that is the mounting location

for the saw blade.

Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation that

requires the removal of the blade guard

and splitter or the riving knife. Dado and

rabbet cuts are considered Non-Through

Cuts because the blade does not protrude

above the top face of the wood stock.

Deep Non-Through Cuts must be made with

multiple, light passes to reduce chance of

kickback. Always remember to re-install

the blade guard and riving knife after per-

forming a non-through cut.

Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the arbor and saw

blade to an angle between 0˚ and 45˚ to

cut a beveled edge onto a workpiece.

Blade Guard: Metal or plastic safety device that

mounts over the saw blade. Its function is

to prevent the operator from coming into

contact with the saw blade.

Perpendicular: Lines or planes that intersect

and form right angles (i.e. the blade is per-

pendicular to the table surface).

Crosscut: Cutting operation in which the miter

gauge is used to cut across the shortest

width of the workpiece.

Push Stick: Safety device used to push the

workpiece through a cutting operation.

Used most often when rip cutting thin

workpieces.

Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that are

used to cut grooves and rabbets.

Dado Cut: Cutting operation that uses a dado

blade to cut a flat bottomed groove into

the face of the workpiece.

Rabbet: Cutting operation that creates an

L-shaped channel along the edge of the

workpiece.

Featherboard: Safety device used to keep the

workpiece against the rip fence and against

the table surface.

Riving Knife or Splitter: Metal plate located

behind the blade. It maintains the kerf

opening in the wood when performing a

cutting operation.

Kerf: The resulting cut or gap in the workpiece

after the saw blade passes through during a

cutting operation.

Straightedge: A tool used to check the flat-

ness, parallelism, or consistency of a

surface(s).

Kickback: An event in which the workpiece is

propelled back towards the operator at a

high rate of speed.

Through Cut: A sawing operation in which the

workpiece is completely sawn through.

Parallel: Being an equal distance apart at every

point along two given lines or planes (i.e.

the rip fence face is parallel to the face of

the saw blade).

Rip Cut: Cutting operation in which the rip

fence is used to cut across the widest

width of the workpiece.

Cleaning Machine

The table and other unpainted parts of your table saw are

coated with a waxy grease that protects them from corro-

sion during shipment. Clean this grease off with a solvent

cleaner or citrus-based degreaser. DO NOT use chlorine-

based solvents such as brake parts cleaner or acetone—if

you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you

will ruin the finish.

ALWAYS work in well-

ventilated areas far from

possible ignition sources

whenusingsolventstoclean

machinery. Many solvents

are toxic when inhaled or

ingested. Use care when

disposing of waste rags

and towels to be sure

they DO NOT create fire

or environmental hazards.

NEVER use gasoline or

petroleum-based solvents

to clean your table saw.

Machine Placement

•

Floor Load: This machine distributes a heavy load

in a small footprint. Some residential floors may

require additional bracing to support both machine

and operator.

Working Clearances: Consider existing and antici-

pated needs, size of material to be processed

through the machine, and space for auxiliary stands,

work tables or other machinery when establishing a

location for your table saw (see Figure 1 for mini-

mum working clearances).

MAKE your shop “child safe.”

Ensure that your workplace

is inaccessible to youngsters

by closing and locking all

entrances when you are

away. NEVER allow untrained

visitors in your shop when

assembling, adjusting or

operating equipment.

•

Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough to elimi-

nate shadow and prevent eye strain.

Electrical: Electrical circuits must be dedicated or

large enough to handle amperage requirements.

Outlets must be located near each machine, so

power or extension cords are clear of high-traffic

areas. Follow local electrical codes for proper instal-

lation of new lighting, outlets, or circuits.

Dust Collection

DO NOT operate the Model W1761/W1762 without

an adequate dust collection system. This saw cre-

ates substantial amounts of wood dust while oper-

ating. Failure to use a dust collection system can

result in short and long-term respiratory illness.

Recommended CFM at Dust Port:

400 CFM

Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rat-

ing of the dust collector. To determine the CFM at the

dust port, you must take into account many variables,

including the CFM rating of the dust collector, the length

of hose between the dust collector and the machine, the

amount of branches or wyes, and the amount of other

open lines throughout the system. Explaining this calcula-

tion is beyond the scope of this manual. If you are unsure

of your system, consult an expert or purchase a good dust

collection "how-to" book.

To connect a dust collection hose, do these steps:

1. Fit the 4" dust hose over the dust port, as shown in

Figure 36, and secure in place with a 4" hose clamp.

2. Tug the hose to make sure it does not come off.

Note: A tight fit is necessary for proper perfor-

mance.

OPERATIONS

General

The Model W1761/W1762 will perform many types of oper-

ations that are beyond the scope of this manual. Many of

these operations can be dangerous or deadly if performed

incorrectly.

The instructions in this section are written with the

understanding that the operator has the necessary knowl-

edge and skills to operate this machine. If at any time

you are experiencing difficulties performing any opera-

tion, stop using the machine!

READ and understand this entire instruc-

tion manual before using this machine.

Serious personal injury may occur if

safety and operational information is not

understood and followed. DO NOT risk

your safety by not reading!

If you are an inexperienced operator, we strongly recom-

mend that you read books, trade articles, or seek training

from an experienced Table Saw operator before perform-

ing any unfamiliar operations. Above all, your safety

should come first!

Basic Controls

Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears

could result from using this machine

without proper protective gear. Always

wear safety glasses, a respirator, and

hearing protection when operating this

machine.

The basic controls for the table saw are shown in Figure

37. Setting up for a typical operation consists of the fol-

lowing four steps:

1. Make sure the blade tilt is correct. If it needs to be

adjusted, loosen the blade tilt lock, turn the blade

tilt handwheel, and tighten the lock.

2. Set the blade height approximately ¹/4" higher than

the workpiece thickness by turning the blade height

handwheel, then lock the blade height in place by

tightening the blade height lock.

3. Adjust the fence to the desired width of cut, then

lock it in place by firmly pushing the fence lock

down until it stops.

Dado Blades (see Figure 43):

There are two types of dado blades: stacked and wobble.

•

Stacked Dado Blade: These dedicated dado cut-

ting blade sets consist of up to 8 individual blades.

Multiple cutters are "stacked" between two outside

blades. The width of the dado is determined by the

combination of cutters that are “stacked” together.

The dado is cut in a single pass leaving a smooth and

square channel in the face of the workpiece. Stacked

dado blades are the most expensive option, but are

worth considering if your projects require a lot of

visible dado cuts. A stacked dado blade is shown in

Figure 43.

��

Figure 42. Laminate blade.

•

Wobble Dado Blade: Also a dedicated dado blade, a

wobble blade usually consists of a single blade that

is tilted on the arbor shaft while it is spinning. The

channel is cut in the face of the workpiece as the

blade passes through its pre-adjusted width of trav-

el. Wobble blades are an inexpensive option when

visibly pleasing channels are not a concern.

Note: This section on blade selection is by no means

comprehensive. Always follow the saw blade manu-

facturer's recommendations to ensure safe and effi-

cient operation of your table saw.

Workpiece Inspection

Non-Through &

Through Cuts

Non-Through Cuts

Some workpieces are not safe to cut or may

require modification before they can be made

safe to cut.

A non-through cut is a sawing operation where

the blade does not protrude above the top

face of the wood stock. Since non-through cuts

require the removal of the blade guard and

splitter, the riving knife must be installed. Dado

cuts, rabbet cuts, and resawing operations are

non-through cuts that can be performed with

this table saw.

Before cutting, get in the habit of inspecting all

workpieces for the following:

•

Foreign Objects: Nails, staples, dirt, rocks

and other foreign objects are often embed-

ded in wood. While cutting, these objects

can become dislodged and hit the opera-

tor, they can cause kickback, and they

can break or chip the blade, which might

then fly apart. Always visually inspect your

workpiece for these items. If they can't be

removed, do NOT cut the workpiece.

Non-through cuts have a higher risk of injury

from kickback because the splitter and blade

guard must be removed. Kickback is an event in

which the workpiece is propelled back towards

the operator at a high rate of speed. Always

remember to re-install the blade guard and

splitter after performing a non-through cut.

•

Large/Loose Knots: Loose knots can become

dislodged during the cutting operation. Large

knots can cause kickback and machine dam-

age. Choose workpieces that do not have

large/loose knots or plan ahead to avoid

cutting through them.

Through Cuts

A through cut is a sawing operation in which the

workpiece is completely sawn through. Ripping,

crosscutting, miter cuts, and angled cuts are all

through cutting operations. The blade guard and

splitter or riving knife must be installed during

through cuts.

•

Wet or "Green" Stock: Cutting wood with a

moisture content over 20% causes unneces-

sary wear on the blades, increases the risk

of kickback, and yields poor results.

Excessive Warping: Workpieces with exces-

sive cupping, bowing, or twisting are dan-

gerous to cut because they are unstable and

often unpredictable when being cut. DO NOT

use workpieces with these characteristics!

Through cuts have a risk of kickback. Read,

understand, and follow instructions and safety

precautions for each type of cut to reduce the

risk of injury.

Safety precautions and instructions for each

type of cut are located on the following

pages:

•

Minor Warping: Workpieces with slight cup-

ping can be safely supported if the cupped

side is facing the table or the fence. On

the contrary, a workpiece supported on the

bowed side will rock during a cut and could

cause kickback or severe injury.

W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

Ripping

"Ripping" means cutting with the grain of a natural wood

workpiece. In other man-made materials such as MDF or

plywood, ripping simply means cutting lengthwise.

Serious injury can be caused by

kickback. Kickback is a high-speed

expulsion of stock from the tablesaw

toward an operator. The operator or

bystanders may be struck by flying

stock, or the operator’s hands can

be pulled into the blade during the

kickback.

To make a rip cut, do these steps:

1. Review Preventing Kickback on Page 9 and take the

necessary precautions to prevent kickback.

2. If using natural wood, joint one long edge of the

workpiece on a jointer.

3. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

4. Ensure that the blade guard and splitter or riving

knife is installed.

5. Set the fence to the desired width of cut on the

scale.

6. Adjust the blade height so the highest saw tooth

protrudes approximately ¹/4" above the workpiece.

7. Set up safety devices such as featherboards or other

anti-kickback devices.

8. Rotate the blade to make sure it does not come into

contact with any of the safety devices.

Figure 44. Typical ripping operation.

9. Plug the saw into the power source, turn it ON, and

allow it to reach full speed.

10. The jointed edge of the workpiece must slide

against the fence during the cutting operation.

11. Use a push stick to feed the workpiece through

the saw blade, as shown in Figure 44, until the

workpiece is completely past the saw blade.

Keep the blade guard installed and in

the down position. Failure to do this

could result in serious personal injury

or death.

Turn OFF the saw and allow the blade to come to

a complete stop before removing the cut-off piece.

Failure to follow this warning could result in serious

personal injury.

W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

Crosscutting

"Crosscutting" means cutting across the grain of a natural

wood workpiece. In other man-made materials, such as

MDF or plywood, crosscuttting means cutting across the

width of the workpiece.

To make a crosscut using the miter gauge, do these

steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Ensure that the blade guard and splitter or riving

knife is installed.

3. Move the rip fence aside and position the miter

gauge, adjusted to 90°, in a miter slot.

Figure 45. Typical crosscutting operation.

4. Adjust the blade height so the teeth protrude

approximately ¹/4" above the workpiece.

Turn OFF the saw and allow the blade

to come to a complete stop before

removing the cut-off piece. Failure

to follow this warning could result in

serious personal injury.

5. Slide the miter gauge near the blade and adjust the

workpiece so the blade will cut on the waste side of

the line.

6. Plug in the tablesaw, turn it ON, and allow it to

reach full speed.

7. Hold the workpiece firmly against the face of the

miter gauge (Figure 45) and ease it through the

blade until the workpiece is completely past the saw

blade.

Keep the blade guard installed and in

the down position. Failure to do this

could result in serious personal injury

or death.

Miter Cuts

A miter is an angled crosscut. Miters are usually cut in

the same manner as crosscuts, using the miter gauge and

a predetermined mark on the workpiece.

To perform a miter cut, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Ensure that the blade guard and splitter or riving

knife is installed.

3. Determine the angle of your cut. If the angle needs

to be very precise, use a protractor to set the miter

gauge to the blade.

Figure 46. Example of marking miter line.

4. Place the face of the miter gauge against the edge

of the workpiece and place the bar across the face

of the workpiece. Use the bar as a guide to mark

your cut as shown in Figure 46.

5. Place the miter gauge back into the slot and hold

the workpiece firm against the miter gauge body.

Slide the miter gauge near the blade and adjust the

workpiece so the blade will cut on the waste side of

the line.

6. Proceed to make the cut in the same manner as

described in the Crosscutting instructions on Page

32.

Blade Tilt & Bevel Cuts

When the blade tilt stop bolts are properly adjusted

(Page 49), the blade tilt handwheel allows the operator

to tilt the blade to the left, anywhere between 0° and

45°. This is used most often when cutting bevels, com-

pound miters or chamfers. Figure 47 shows an example

of the blade when tilted to 45°.

W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

Dado Cutting

Commonly used in furniture joinery, a dado is a straight

channel cut in the face of the workpiece. Dadoes can be

cut using either a dedicated dado blade or a standard

saw blade.

Dado operations require proper

procedures to avoid serious injury.

Extra care must be taken to prevent

kickback when using dado blades. Any

movement of the workpiece away

from the fence will cause kickback. Be

certain that stock is flat and straight.

Failure to follow these warnings could

result in serious personal injury.

The table saw motor is pushed to its limits when making

a dado cut. If the motor starts to bog down, slow down

your feed rate and depth of cut and make multiple shal-

low passes.

To use a stacked or wobble dado blade, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the table insert, the blade guard and split-

ter, and the saw blade.

DO NOT make a through-cut with

a dado blade. Dado blades are not

designed for through cuts. Failure to

follow this warning could result in

serious personal injury.

3. Install the riving knife.

4. Attach and adjust the dado blade system according

to the dado blade manufacturer’s instructions, then

install the dado insert.

5. Raise the dado blade up to the desired depth of cut

(depth of dado channel desired). When cutting deep

dadoes, take more than one pass to reduce the risk

of kickback.

The danger of kickback increases

relative to the depth and width of a

cut. Reduce the risk of kickback by

making multiple passes to achieve the

desired depth of cut. Failure to follow

these warnings could result in serious

personal injury.

6. Adjust the distance between the fence and the

inside edge of the blade as shown in Figure 48 to

dado the length of a workpiece.

7. If dadoing across the workpiece, use the miter

gauge and carefully line up the desired cut with the

dado blade. DO NOT use the fence in combination

with the miter gauge.

��

8. Reconnect the saw to the power source.

9. Turn the saw ON. The blade should run smooth,

��

with no vibrations.

�

10. When the blade has reached full speed, perform a

test cut with a scrap piece of wood.

11. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat the cut with the

actual workpiece.

To use a standard saw blade to cut dadoes, do these

steps:

The danger of kickback increases rela-

tive to the depth and width of a cut.

Reduce the risk of kickback by making

multiple passes to achieve the desired

depth of cut. Failure to follow these

warnings could result in serious per-

sonal injury.

Note: Reduce motor overloading and blade wear by using

a ripping blade. Ripping blades are designed to clear the

sawdust quickly. See Page 28 for more details.

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Ensure that the riving knife is installed.

Rabbet Cutting

Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is an L-

shaped groove cut in the edge of the workpiece. Rabbets

can be cut with either a dado blade or a standard saw

blade.

��

Rabbet cutting on the edge of the workpiece requires a

sacrificial fence attachment as shown in Figure 51.

��

To cut rabbets with the dado blade, do these steps:

��

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

Figure 51. Sacrificial fence.

2. Make the sacrificial fence the same length as the

fence and ³⁄4" thick.

3. Attach it to the fence with screws or clamps as

shown in Figure 51, making sure they are all secure

and tight.

You may experience kickback during

this procedure. Stand to the side of

the blade and wear safety glasses or

a face shield to prevent injury when

cutting rabbets.

4. Adjust the fence, turn the saw ON, raise the blade

into the sacrificial fence to the height needed for

the rabbeting operation, and turn the saw OFF.

5. Align the workpiece to perform the cutting operation

as shown in Figure 52.

Always use push sticks, featherboards,

push paddles and other safety

accessories whenever possible to

increase safety and control during

operations which require that the

blade guard and splitter must be

removed from the saw. ALWAYS

replace the blade guard after dadoing

is complete.

The danger of kickback increases relative to the

depth and width of a cut. Reduce the risk of kickback

by making multiple passes to achieve the desired

depth of cut. Failure to follow these warnings could

result in serious personal injury.

6. Reconnect the saw to the power source and turn the

saw ON.

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Ensure that the riving knife is installed.

3. Clearly mark the width of the rabbet cut on the

workpiece.

Figure 53. First cut to create a rabbet

with a standard blade.

Note: Include marks on the edge of the workpiece

to clearly identify the intended cut while it is laying

flat on the saw table.

��

4. Raise the blade up to the desired depth of cut

(depth of rabbet channel desired). When cutting

deep rabbets, take more than one pass to reduce

the risk of kickback.

��

The danger of kickback increases relative to the

depth and width of a cut. Reduce the risk of kickback

by making multiple passes to achieve the desired

depth of cut. Failure to follow these warnings could

result in serious personal injury.

Figure 54. Second cut to create a rabbet.

5. Adjust the fence so the blade is aligned with the

inside of your rabbet channel as shown in Figure 53.

6. Reconnect the saw to the power source and turn the

saw ON.

7. When the blade has reached full speed, perform a

test cut with a scrap piece of wood.

8. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat the cut with the

final workpiece.

9. Stand the workpiece on edge as shown in Figure 54.

10. Adjust the saw blade height to intersect with the

first cut.

11. Perform the second cut to complete the rabbet.

Resawing

Resawing is the process of cutting a thick piece of stock

into one or more thinner pieces. Bandsaws are ideal

for resawing and the process is fairly easy and safe. A

table saw is not intended for resawing and the process

is difficult and extremely dangerous. Resawing on the

table saw often binds the blade, causing kickback. The

risk of kickback increases relative to the depth of a cut.

Kickback is more dangerous when resawing on a table saw

because the anti-kickback devices and blade guard must

be removed, leaving no protection between your hands

and the saw blade. Kickback can pull the operator's hands

into the blade, or the operator or bystanders may be hit

by flying stock. DO NOT resaw on a table saw without

using a resaw barrier. DO NOT resaw on a table saw with-

out wearing a full face shield.

Resawing on a table saw increases the

chances of kickback. Serious injury

can be caused by kickback. Kickback

is a high-speed expulsion of stock from

the tablesaw toward an operator. The

operator or bystanders may be struck

by flying stock, or the operator’s

hands can be pulled into the blade

during the kickback.

Resawing operations require proper

procedures to avoid serious injury.

Extra care must be taken to prevent

kickback when resawing. Any tilting

or movement of the workpiece away

from the fence will cause kickback. Be

certain that stock is flat and straight.

Failure to follow these warnings could

result in serious personal injury.

The following instructions describe how to build a resaw

barrier, add an auxiliary fence to your standard fence,

and more safely perform resawing operations.

Note: This table saw can only resaw wood that is less

than 8" tall.

Resaw Barrier

The resaw barrier shown in Figure 55 holds the workpiece

vertical, keeps the workpiece aligned with the fence, and

keeps your hands away from the blade.

Figure 55. Resawing barrier.

W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

To build the resaw barrier, do these steps:

1. Cut two hardwood or plywood boards to ³⁄4" x 7¹⁄2

x 40¹⁄4" and ³⁄4" x 3" x 40¹⁄4". If you are using hard-

wood, cut the boards oversize, then joint and plane

the boards to the correct size to make sure the

boards are square and flat.

Note: Only use furniture grade plywood or kiln dried

hardwood to prevent warping.

2. Pre-drill and countersink 8 holes approximately ³⁄8

from the bottom of the 7¹⁄2" tall board.

3. Glue the end of the 3" board, then clamp the boards

at a 90° angle with the larger board in the vertical

position as shown in Figure 56.

Figure 56. Clamping the resawing barrier.

4. Secure the joint with ¹⁄4-20 x 2" wood screws.

Auxiliary Fence

The auxiliary fence is necessary if you are resawing a

workpiece that is taller than it is wide. It should be no

less than ¹⁄2" shorter than the board to be resawn.

To build the auxiliary fence, do these steps:

��

1. Cut a ³⁄4" thick hardwood or plywood board 40¹⁄4

��

long, and cut a height no less than ¹⁄2" shorter than

the board to be resawn. If you are using hardwood,

cut the board oversize, then joint and plane the

board to the correct size to make sure the board is

square and flat.

��

Note: Only use furniture grade plywood or kiln dried

hardwood to prevent warping.

Figure 57. Auxiliary fence.

2. Pre-drill and countersink four holes 1¹⁄4" from the

bottom of the board.

3. Pull the end cap off of the standard fence, then

remove four hex nuts, flat washers, hex bolts, and

the fence facing on the blade side of the fence.

4. Thread the four M8-1.25 x 25 flat head screws

through the auxiliary fence and into the hex nuts

in the standard fence body, and tighten securely as

shown in Figure 57.

Resawing Operations

The table saw motor is pushed to its limits when

resawing. If the motor starts to bog down, slow down

your feed rate. Motor overloading and blade wear can

be reduced by using a ripping blade. Ripping blades are

designed to clear the sawdust quickly.

You may experience kickback during

this procedure. Stand to the side of

the blade and wear a full face shield to

prevent injury when resawing.

To perform resawing operations, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Remove the standard table insert and the blade

guard/splitter, and install the riving knife. Install a

12" ripping blade and a zero clearance table insert.

Then lower the blade below the table surface.

��

3. Attach the auxiliary fence to the standard fence and

set it to the desired width.

^��_��

��

Note: Account for blade kerf, the rough cut made

by the blade, and the inaccuracy of the fence scale

when the auxiliary fence is installed when figuring

out the correct width.

4. Place the workpiece against the fence and slide the

resaw barrier against the workpiece. Now clamp the

resaw barrier to the top of the table saw (see Figure

58).

Figure 58. Ideal completed resaw cut.

5. Slide the workpiece over the blade to make sure it

moves smoothly.

You may experience kickback during

this procedure. Stand to the side of

the blade and wear safety glasses or

a face shield to prevent injury when

resawing.

6. Raise the blade approximately an inch, or close to

half the height of the workpiece (Figure 58), which-

ever is less.

7. Plug in the table saw, turn it ON, and use a push

stick to feed the workpiece through the blade using

a slow, steady feed rate.

10. Turn OFF the table saw, then sepa-

rate the parts of the workpiece and

hand plane the remaining ridge.

8. Flip the workpiece end for end, keeping the same

side against the fence, and run the workpiece

through the blade.

11. When finished resawing, remove the

resaw barrier and auxiliary fence and

re-install the blade guard/splitter or

riving knife and standard table insert.

9. Repeat Steps 6–8 until the blade is close to half

of the height of the board to be resawn. The ideal

completed resaw cut will leave an ¹⁄8" connection

when the resawing is complete as shown in Figure

58. Leaving an ¹⁄8" connection will reduce the risk of

kickback.

MAINTENANCE

General

Regular periodic maintenance on your SHOP FOX^®Model

W1761/W1762 will ensure its optimum performance. Make

a habit of inspecting your machine each time you use it.

Check for the following conditions and repair or

replace when necessary:

Daily Check

•

Check guard operation.

Inspect blades for damage or wear.

Check for loose mounting bolts/arbor nut.

Check cords, plugs, and switch for damage.

Any other condition that could hamper the safe

operation of this machine.

Make sure that your machine is

unplugged during all maintenance

procedures! If this warning is ignored,

serious personal injury may occur.

•

Vacuum dust buildup from inside the cabinet and off

of the motor after use.

Wipe the table clean after every use—this ensures

moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare

metal surfaces.

Lubrication

Lubricate the areas indicated below every

6–12 months, depending on frequency of

use. These areas can be reached through

the motor cover opening or the blade

opening. Check all adjustments after lubri-

cating.

Weekly Check

•

Wipe down the table surface and grooves with a

lubricant and rust preventive such as SLIPIT®.

Clean the pitch and resin from the saw blade with a

cleaner such as OxiSolv® Blade & Bit Cleaner.

•

Lubricate the following components with

multi-purpose grease:

Monthly

•

Check the flat belt for damage or wear.

1. Trunnion and trunnion slide (where

Parts 313 and 342 slide each other, on

Page 64).

Cleaning

2. The worm gear, bevel gears, acme

screw and shafts (Parts 399, 333,

338, 306, and 340 on Page 64).

Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off

the remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built

up, use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it. Treat all

unpainted cast iron and steel with a non-staining lubricant

after cleaning.

Note: Using a small brush to apply

the grease may be easier than using

your fingers.

Occasionally clean the internal parts with more than a

vacuum. To do this, remove the table top and clean the

internal parts with citrus cleaner or mineral spirits and a

stiff wire brush or steel wool. DO NOT USE WATER—WATER

WILL CAUSE CAST IRON TO RUST. Make sure the internal

workings are dry before using the saw again, so that wood

dust will not accumulate. If any essential lubrication is

removed during cleaning, re-lubricate those areas.

and the rip fence are adjusted parallel to the blade. If

either of these are not exactly parallel, your cuts and

your finished work will be lower in quality, but more

importantly, this condition increases the risk of kickback.

Take the time to adjust your table saw properly. A few

minutes now will be time well spent.

To adjust the blade parallel to the miter slot, do these

steps:

1. DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2. Use an adjustable square to measure the distance

from the miter slot to a carbide tip on the blade as

shown in Figure 70. Make sure that the face of the

adjustable square is even along the miter slot.

Figure 70. Example of adjusting blade to

miter slot.

3. With the end of the adjustable square just touch-

ing the tip, lock the square in place. Now, mark the

carbide tip with a marker where you made this mea-

surement.

The saw blade is dangerously sharp.

Use extra care when handling the

blade or working near it. Serious injury

is possible.

4. Rotate that tip to the other end of the table insert.

5. Slide the adjustable square down to the other end

of the table insert, and compare the distance from

the marked blade tip to the end of the adjustable

square.

— If the blade tip does not touch the end of the

adjustable square similar to the first measure-

ment, the table will need to be adjusted.

Table Mounting Locations

—If the blade tip measurement is the same on both

sides, go to Step 8.

Figure 71. Table mounting bolt holes.

6. To adjust the table, loosen the three bolts in the

table mounting locations with a 17mm wrench (see

Figure 71) and slightly tap the table. Repeat Steps

2-6 until the blade and miter slot are parallel. Do

not forget to tighten the table mounting bolts when

finished.

7. Now check to see if the blade remains parallel to

the miter slot when tilted to 45°.

8. Tilt the blade to 45° and repeat Steps 2-6. If the

blade is still parallel to the miter slot, continue on

to the Blade Alignment procedure. Otherwise, con-

tinue with the next step.

��

9. If the blade was parallel to the miter slot at 90° but

not at 45°, the table will need to be shimmed with

metal shim stock. The shims are placed under the

table over each of the three table mounting bolts.

��

10. Refer to Figures 72 and 73 for shim placement. If

the distance of A is shorter than B, shim(s) will need

to be placed under corners #1 and #2. If the distance

of B is shorter than A, shim(s) will need to be placed

under corner #3. Very thin shim stock works well.

Figure 72. Shim procedure diagram A.

11. Tighten down one bolt a small amount and then

move on to each of the others, tightening each down

the same amount. Continue to rotate through the

bolts, tightening them a little each time until they

are all secure.

��

12. Now recheck the blade to miter slot at 90° and 45°

by repeating Steps 2-6. If the distance of A and B

are equal, continue to the Blade Alignment proce-

dure. If the distances are still off, repeat Steps 10-

13.

��

13. Once you feel you have the miter slot adjusted to

the blade, recheck all measurements and be sure

the table mounting bolts are secure. Also, if you

ever remove the table in the future, be sure to make

note of shim placements and reassemble exactly how

it came apart.

Figure 73. Shim procedure drawing B.

Blade Alignment

If the blade contacts the table insert when raised or tilt-

ed, the blade must be aligned by moving the table.

To adjust the blade by moving the table, do these

steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Loosen the three table mounting bolts (Page 51) with

a 17mm wrench and adjust the table until the blade

does not contact the insert. Tighten all the mounting

bolts.

3. Make sure the blade does not contact the table

insert when raised or tilted. Recheck parallelism of

the blade to the miter slot (see Page 51). Adjust as

necessary until the blade does not touch the insert.

Adjusting Fence

The rip fence included with your Model W1761/W1762

Table Saw is designed to provide excellent ripping accu-

racy when properly adjusted. There are four main adjust-

ments to concern yourself with: square, height, paral-

lelism, and clamping pressure. Keep in mind that these

adjustments are interconnected and some trial-and-error

may be needed to achieve satisfactory results.

Nylon

Screws

Rear Rail

Foot

Square and Height

Adjust the the nylon screws (Figure 74) on top of the

fence bracket with a 6mm hex wrench to set the fence

square with the blade and set the fence height above the

table.

Fence

Bracket

Figure 74. Nylon adjustment screws.

Place a machinist’s square on the table against the side

of the fence. If the square does not remain flush against

both the fence and the table, adjust the nylon screws

until the fence and table are square.

Set

Screws

Fence

Bracket

If the bottom surface of the fence is more than ¹/16"

above the table at the front or back, adjust the fence

height using the nylon screws and the rear rail foot

(Figure 74).

Clamping Pressure and Parallelism

The fence clamping mechanism can be adjusted simulta-

neously to set the right amount of clamping pressure to

hold your fence securely, and ensure the fence is parallel

to the miter slot.

Figure 75. Set screw adjustments.

Remove the fence and, using a 4mm hex wrench, adjust

the set screws shown in Figure 75 equally on the rear

side of the front bracket. Place the fence alongside the

miter slot (Figure 76) and check the fence to miter slot

parallelism and the clamping strength. Trial-and-error

will be needed to adjust the set screws so the fence is

parallel to the miter slot and the clamping pressure is

sufficient.

Optional: If you are cutting wet or green stock, offset-

ting the rear of the fence ¹/64" from the blade using the

set screws in Figure 75 can help prevent the workpiece

from binding and burning.

parallel to miter slot.

5. Loosen the jam nut with an 8mm wrench and adjust

the stop screw until it is seated against the shaft

(see Figure 77 for part locations), then tighten the

jam nut.

Figure 77. Miter gauge diagram.

6. Loosen the screw on the front of the miter bar,

adjust the pointer to 0°, then tighten the screw.

7. To adjust to 45°, follow Steps 1-5 using an adjust-

able square set to 45°.

8. Double-check your adjustments at 45° and 90°

to assure that you have accurately set your miter

gauge.

9. To fit the miter bar tighter in the miter slot, turn

the adjustment set screws shown in Figure 77 clock-

wise in small increments with a 2.5mm hex wrench,

and test fit between adjustments until the miter

gauge fits your expectations.
