follow all instructions listed

below may result in electric

shock, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

7. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF

with padlocks, master switches or by

removing starter keys.

8. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will

do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed.

9. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not

force the tool or an attachment to do

a job for which it was not designed.

READ and become familiar

with the entire Operator’s

Manual. LEARN the tool’s

application, limitations and possible

hazards.

10.USE PROPER EXTENSION

CORDS. Make sure your extension

cord is in good condition. When

using an extension cord, be sure to

use the one heavy enough to carry

the current that the product will

draw. An undersized cord will result

in a drop in line voltage and in loss

of power which will cause the tool

overheat. The table on page 13

shows the proper wire gauge size

usage to each extension cord length

and ampere rating. If in doubt, use

the next heavier gauge. The smaller

the gauge number, the heavier

the cord.

2. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in

working order.

3. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS

AND WRENCHES. Form the habit

of checking to see that keys and

adjusting wrenches are removed

from the tool before turning ON.

4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN.

Cluttered areas and benches

invite accidents.

11.WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do

not wear loose clothing, gloves,

neckties, rings, bracelets or other

jewelry which may get caught in

moving parts. Nonslip footwear is

recommended. Wear protective hair

covering to contain long hair.

16.REDUCE THE RISK OF

UNINTENTIONAL STARTING.

Make sure switch is in the OFF

position before plugging the tool in.

17.USE RECOMMENDED

ACCESSORIES. Consult

this Operator’s Manual for

recommended accessories.

The use of improper accessories

may cause risk of injury to yourself

or others.

12.

ALWAYS WEAR EYE

PROTECTION. Any power

tool can throw foreign

objects into the eyes and could

cause permanent eye damage.

ALWAYS wear Safety Goggles (not

glasses) that comply with ANSI

Safety standard Z87.1. Everyday

eyeglasses have only impact–

resistant lenses. They ARE NOT

safety glasses. Safety Goggles are

available at Sears. NOTE: Glasses

or goggles not in compliance with

ANSI Z87.1 could seriously injure

you when they break.

18.NEVER STAND ON THE TOOL.

Serious injury could occur if the

tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is

unintentionally contacted.

19.CHECK FOR 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 should be

properly repaired or replaced.

13.

14.

WEAR A FACE MASK

OR DUST MASK. Sawing

operation produces dust.

SECURE WORK. Use

clamps or a vice to hold work

when practical. It is safer

than using your hand and

it frees both hands to operate

the tool.

SAW BLADE GUARD ASSEMBLY,

ANTI-KICKBACK ASSEMBLY AND

RIVING KNIFE

and all other warnings contained in this

manual and on the saw itself. Replace

the guarding systems as soon as you

return to thru-cutting operations. Keep

the guard assembly in working order.

Your table saw is equipped with a

blade guard assembly, anti-kickback

assembly and riving knife that covers

the blade and reduces the possibility

of accidental blade contact. The riving

knife is a ﬂat plate that ﬁts into the cut

made by the saw blade and effectively

ﬁghts kickback by lessening the

tendency of the blade to bind in the cut.

The blade guard assembly and anti-

kickback assembly can only be used

when making through cuts that sever

the wood. When making rabbets and

other cuts that make non through cuts,

the blade guard assembly and anti-

kickback assembly must be removed

and riving knife lowered to the

KICKBACKS

KICKBACKS: Kickbacks can cause

serious injury. A kickback occurs when

a part of the workpiece binds between

the saw blade and the rip fence, or

other ﬁxed object, and rises from the

table and is thrown toward the operator.

Kickbacks can be avoided by attention

to the following conditions.

How to Avoid Kickbacks and Protect

Yourself from Possible Injury:

a. Be certain that the rip fence is

parallel to the saw blade.

non through cut position marked on the

riving knife. Two anti-kickback pawls are

located on the sides of the riving knife

that allow the wood to pass through the

blade in the cutting direction but reduce

the possibility of the material being

thrown backwards toward the operator.

Use all components of the guarding

system (blade guard assembly, riving

knife and anti-kickback assembly) for

every operation for which they can

be used including all through cutting.

If you elect not to use any of these

components for a particular application

exercise additional caution regarding

control of the workpiece, the use of

push sticks, the position of your hands

relative to the blade, the use of safety

b. Do not rip by applying the feed force

to the section of the workpiece that

will become the cut-off (free) piece.

Feed force when ripping should

always be applied between the saw

blade and the fence; use a push

stick for narrow work, 6 in. (152

mm) wide or less.

c. Keep saw blade guard assembly,

riving knife and anti-kickback

assembly in place and operating

properly. If anti-kickback assembly

is not operational, return your unit

to the nearest authorized service

center for repair. The riving knife

must be in alignment with the saw

blade and the anti-kickback pawls

assembly must stop a kickback

once it has started. Check their

action before ripping by pushing

the wood under the anti-kickback

assembly. The teeth must prevent

the wood from being pulled toward

the front of the saw.

d. Plastic and composite (like

hardboard) materials may be cut on

your saw. However, since these are

usually quite hard and slippery, the

anti-kickback pawls may not stop a

kickback. Therefore, be especially

attentive to following proper set up

and cutting procedures for ripping.

e. Use saw blade guard assembly,

anti-kickback pawls assembly and

riving knife for every operation for

which it can be used, including all

through-sawing.

f. Push the workpiece past the saw

blade prior to release.

g. Never rip a workpiece that is

twisted or warped, or does not

have a straight edge to guide along

the fence.

h. Never saw a large workpiece that

cannot be controlled.

i. Never use the fence as a guide or

length stop when crosscutting.

j. Never saw a workpiece with loose

knots, ﬂaws, nails or other foreign

objects.

k. Never rip a workpiece shorter than

10 in. (254 mm).

l. NEVER use a dull blade – replace

or have resharpened.

m. NEVER use a rip fence and miter

gauge together.

n. Keep hands out of saw blade.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS AND SAFETY

IMPROPER CONNECTION of the

equipment grounding conductor can

result in risk of electric shock. The

conductor with the green insulation

(with or without yellow stripes) is the

equipment grounding conductor. If

repair or replacement of the electrical

cord or plug is necessary, do not

connect the equipment grounding

conductor to a live terminal.

WARNING

To avoid injury, the ON / OFF switch

should be in the OFF position and

the plug removed from the power

source while the cool down takes

place, to prevent accidental starting

when the reset button is pushed.

Overheating may be caused by

misaligned parts or a dull blade or

undersized extensing cord. Inspect

your saw for proper setup before

using it again.

CUTTING OPERATIONS

There are two basic types of cuts:

ripping and crosscutting. Ripping is

cutting along the length and the grain of

the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting

either across the width or across the

grain of the workpiece. (It is not safe to

rip or crosscut by freehand). Ripping

requires the use of the rip fence, and

crosscutting requires the miter gauge.

NEVER USE A RIP FENCE AND

MITER GAUGE TOGETHER.

USING THE TABLE EXTENSION

(FIG. VV, WW)

If the table extension is not parallel

with the table, remove the bolts (1)

and position the extension leveling

spacers (2) between the table

extension and tube until it is parallel

with the table, then tighten the bolts (1).

NOTE: See page 15 for table of loose

parts ITEM: R.

WARNING

Before using the saw each time,

check the following:

Fig. VV

1. The blade is tightened to the arbor.

2. The blade bevel lock knob

is tightened.

3. If ripping, make sure the fence is

locked into position and is parallel

to the miter gauge groove.

4. The blade guard is in place and

working properly.

5. Safety glasses are worn.

1. Release the extension cam locking

levers (3).

The failure to adhere to these

common safety rules, and those

printed in the front of this manual,

can greatly increase the likelihood

of injury.

2. Slide the extension (4) out until the

correct measurement is displayed

on the tube scale. The user sights

the scale off the edge of the table.

3. Tighten all extension cam locking

levers (3).

RIPPING (FIG. XX, YY)

To make an additional push stick, use

the pattern on page 56. (Fig. ZZ)

WARNING

To prevent serious injury:

● Never use a miter gauge when

ripping.

WARNING

AVOID KICKBACK by pushing

forward on the section of the

workpiece that passes between the

blade and the fence. Never perform

any freehand operations.

● Never use more than one rip

fence during a single cut.

● Do not allow familiarity or

frequent use of your table saw

to cause careless mistakes.

Remember that even a careless

fraction of a second is enough to

cause a severe injury.

Fig. XX

● Keep both hands away from the

blade and clear from the path of

the blade.

● The workpiece must have a

straight edge against the fence

and must not be warped, twisted,

or bowed when ripping.

WARNING

When width or rip is narrower than

2 in., the push stick cannot be used

because the blade guard will interfere.

Use the auxiliary fence (5) and push

block (6) as shown in Fig. YY.

1. Remove the miter gauge and store

it in the “storage” compartment in

the base of the saw.

2. Secure the rip fence to the table.

3. Raise the blade so it is about 1/8 in.

higher than the top of the workpiece.

4. Place the workpiece ﬂat on the table

and against the fence. Keep the

workpiece away from the blade.

5. Turn the saw ON and wait for the

blade to come to full speed.

Fig. YY

6. Slowly feed the workpiece into the

blade by pushing forward only on

the workpiece section (1) that will

pass between the blade and the

fence. (Fig. XX)

7. Keep your thumbs off the table top.

When both of your thumbs touch

the front edge of the table (2), ﬁnish

the cut with a push stick (3).

8. Continue pushing the workpiece (4)

with the push stick (3) or push

block (6 - Fig. YY) until it passes

through the blade guard and clears

the rear of the table. (Fig. XX)

CROSSCUTTING (FIG. dd)

WARNING

To prevent serious injury:

WARNING

● Do not allow familiarity or

frequent use of your table saw

to cause careless mistakes.

Remember that even a careless

fraction of a second is enough to

cause a severe injury.

Always position the larger surface

of the workpiece on the table

when crosscutting and/or bevel

crosscutting to avoid instability.

Fig. dd

WARNING

Always work to the right side of the

blade during this type of cut. The

miter gauge must be in the right

side groove because the bevel

angle may cause the blade guard to

interfere with the cut if used on the

left side groove.

USING THE WOOD FACING ON THE
