Safety Instructions For Power Tools
9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make
sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. Conductor size must be in accor-
dance with the chart below. The amperage
rating is listed on the motor or tool name-
plate. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. Your extension cord must
also contain a ground wire and plug pin.
Always repair or replace damaged exten-
sion cords.
14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep
tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubri-
cating and changing accessories.
15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing
and changing accessories, such as blades,
bits, cutters, and any other item.
16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION-
AL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off
position before plugging in. Also, the mag-
netic switch on this machine may start if the

Additional Safety Instructions For Table Saws
1. THRU-SAWING: Use blade guard, splitter,
and anti-kickback fingers on all thru-saw-
ing operations. See Page 12 for the defin-
ition of thru-sawing.
8. CROSSCUTTING: Move the rip fence out
of the way when crosscutting.
9. MITER GAUGE/RIP FENCE: Never use
the miter gauge and rip fence at the same
time.
2. KICKBACK: Use anti-kickback devices
during ALL cutting operations. If you do not
have a complete understanding of how
kickback occurs, or how to prevent it, Do
not operate this table saw. See Page 12
for the definition of kickback.
10. STALLED BLADE: Never attempt to free a
stalled saw blade without first turning the
saw off.
11. CUTOFF TABLES: Use adequate support
to the rear and sides of the saw table for
wide or long workpieces.
3. DANGEROUS REACHING: Do not reach
behind or over the saw blade with either
hand while the saw is running.
12. HAND SAFETY: Avoid awkward cutting
operations and hand positions where a
sudden slip could cause your hand to move
into the saw blade.
4. PUSHSTICK: Use a push stick when rip-
ping narrow stock.
5. FREE-HAND CUTTING: The fence or the
miter gauge must support the workpiece
during all cutting operations.
13. SAW BLADE: Lower the saw blade below
the table when not in use.
6. BODY POSITION WHEN CUTTING: Do
not stand or have any part of your body in-
line with the path of the saw blade.
14. DAMAGED SAW BLADE: Never use a
damaged saw blade or one that has been
dropped.
7. WORKPIECE CONTROL: Hold the work-
piece firmly against the miter gauge or
fence and hold the workpiece firmly
against the table.
15. DADO CUTTING: There is a high degree
of risk involved with any dado operation.
See Page 12 for the definition of dado.
Unfamiliarity with this manual could result
in serious personal injury. Become familiar
with the contents of this manual, including
all the safety warnings.
No list of safety guidelines can be com-
plete. Operating this machinery may
require additional safety precautions spe-
cific to your shop environment. Failure to
use reasonable caution while operating
this machine could result in serious per-
sonal injury.

Avoiding Kickback
Safety Accessories
Failure to understand how and why kick-
back occurs could cause serious person-
al injury. DO NOT operate this table saw if
you do not have a clear understanding of
kickback, and how it occurs.
Not using safety accessories could cause
serious personal injury. Learn how to cor-
rectly use each safety accessory.
Push Sticks
The use of push sticks, particularly when cutting
small or narrow workpieces, provides a double
benefit for saw operators. The push stick pro-
vides added leverage, enabling the operator to
keep the workpiece firmly supported against the
fence and table. At the same time, the push stick
keeps the operator’s hand safely away from the
rotation of the saw blade as shown in Figure 1.
See the template on Page 57 of the manual for
construction details, or purchase one from the
Grizzly catalog or website.
Statistics prove that most common accidents
among table saw users can be linked to kick-
back.
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 oth-
ers in the area being struck by the flying stock, it
is often the case that the operator’s hands are
forced into the blade during the kickback.
The following can help minimize kickbacks:
• Use your blade guard and splitter.
• Never for any reason place your hand behind
the blade. Should kickback occur, your hand
will be pulled into the blade.
• Inspect splitter for alignment between it and
your blade.
Push Stick
• Never use the fence as a guide for crosscut-
ting.
• Never attempt freehand cuts.
• Use a push stick or featherboard to maintain
control of your workpiece.
• Feed cuts through to completion.
• Stand to the side when ripping.
• Ensure your fence and miter slot are parallel to
the blade.
Figure 1. Push Stick.
If you do not have a clear understanding of kick-
back and how it occurs, do not operate this table
saw.

Zero Clearance Table Inserts
Push Paddles
Ideal for use when ripping thin strips or making
bevel cuts, these prevent tearout and jammed
blades by supporting material close to the blade.
Push paddles provide added leverage and sup-
port when ripping or crosscutting wide work-
pieces as shown in Figure 3. We offer a number
of push paddles in the Grizzly catalog.
Use the standard table insert as a template when
creating additional inserts from wood or plywood.
Slots can be custom cut for specific blade angles
by raising the running blade into an uncut insert
at the angle you desire. Be sure to make an addi-
tional slot for the blade splitter.
We also carry a wide selection of table inserts
(Figure 2) in the Grizzly catalog or website. Be
sure to hold the insert firmly in place with a piece
of wood when creating slots. Never hold the table
insert with your hand while cutting new slots.
Push Paddles
Figure 3. Push Paddles.
Featherboards
Easily made from scrap stock, featherboards pro-
vide an added degree of protection against kick-
back as shown in Figure 4. To make a feather-
board, cut a 30-40° angle at one end of the board
and make a number of end cuts at approximately
1
⁄4" apart and 2" to 3" deep. We also offer a num-
ber of featherboards in the Grizzly catalog.

The following is a list of common definitions,
terms and phrases used throughout this manual
as they relate to this table saw and woodworking
in general. It is important that you read and
become familiar with them before assembling,
adjusting or operating this machine. Your safety
is VERY important to us at Grizzly!
Kickback: A condition in which the wood is
thrown back towards an operator at a high rate
of speed.
Miter Gauge: A component that controls the
wood stock movement while performing a
crosscut. Allows for variation of angle cuts
such as miter cuts used on a picture frame.
Arbor: Metal shaft extending from the drive
mechanism, to which the cutting blade is
attached.
Moulding Head: A cutterhead attached to the
arbor that accepts interchangeable moulding
knives for profile cutting. We DO NOT recom-
mend the use of moulding head cutters.
Bevel Edge Cut: Tilting the saw arbor and blade
to an angle between 0° and 45° to perform an
angled cutting operation.
Parallel: Being an equal distance apart at every
point. i.e. the rip fence face is parallel to the
side face of the saw blade.
Blade Guard: Metal or plastic mechanism that
mounts over the saw blade to prevent acciden-
tal contact with the cutting edge.
Non-Thru Cut: A sawing operation that requires
the removal of the blade guard and splitter.
Dado and rabbet cuts are considered Non-
Thru Cuts because the blade does not pro-
trude above the top face of the wood stock.
Always remember to reinstall the blade guard
and splitter after performing a non-thru cut.
Crosscut: Table saw operation in which the miter
gauge is used to cut across the grain of a piece
of wood.
Dado Blade: Blade or set of blades that attach to
the arbor and are used for cutting grooves and
rabbets.
Perpendicular: Intersecting and forming right
angles; at right angles to the vertical and hori-
zontal planes. i.e. the blade is perpendicular to
the table surface.
Dado Cut: Table saw operation that uses a dado
blade to cut a flat bottomed groove into the
face of wood stock.
Push Paddle: Safety aid used to push a piece of
Featherboard: Safety device used to keep the

Clean Up
Site Considerations
The unpainted surfaces are coated with a waxy
oil to protect them from corrosion during ship-
ment. Remove this waxy oil with a solvent clean-
er or citrus-based degreaser such as Grizzly’s
G7895 Degreaser. To clean thoroughly, some
parts may need to be removed. The machine
will operate best when the waxy oil is
removed from all moving and sliding parts.
Chlorine-based cleaners and solvents will dam-
age the painted surfaces of the machine. Follow
the manufacturer’s instructions when using any
type of cleaning product.
Floor Load
The Model G1023Z Series Table Saws are a
heavy load with a medium footprint. Most com-
mercial or home shop floors should be sufficient
to carry the weight of the machine. Reinforce the
floor if you question its ability to support the
weight.
Working Clearance
Working clearances can be thought of as the dis-
tances between machines and obstacles that
allow safe operation of every machine without lim-
itation. Consider existing and anticipated machine
needs, size of material to be processed through
each machine, and space for auxiliary stands or
work tables. Also, consider the relative position of
each machine to one another for efficient materi-
al handling. Be sure to allow yourself sufficient
room to safely run your machines in any foresee-
able operation and keep dust collection hoses off
the floor and out of the way.
Gasoline or petroleum
products used to clean
the machinery could
explode causing serious
personal injury. DO NOT
use gasoline or petrole-
um products to clean the
machinery.
Lighting
Lighting should be bright enough to eliminate
shadows and prevent eye strain. Electrical circuits
should be dedicated or large enough to handle
combined motor amp loads. Be sure to follow
local electrical codes for proper installation of new
lighting or circuits.
Smoking near solvents
could ignite an explosion
or fire causing serious
injury. DO NOT smoke
while using solvents.

and visitors entering a
shop could receive seri-
Lack of ventilation while
using solvents could
cause serious personal
health risks, fire, or

Blade Selection
Figure 26. Crosscutting blade.
Combination Blade: Used for cutting with and
across the grain. A compromise between a rip
blade and a cross-cut blade, a 10" combination
blade will typically have between 40-50 teeth
(Figure 27), an alternate top bevel and flat or
alternate top bevel (Figure 30) and raker tooth
profile. The teeth are arranged in groups of five.
The gullets are small and shallow within the
groups of five teeth, similar to a cross-cut blade;
then large and deep between the groups, like a
ripping blade.
Choosing the correct blade for the job is essential
for the safe and efficient use of your table saw.
Rip Blade: Used for cutting with the grain. 10" rip
blades have between 20-40 teeth (Figure 25),
flat-top ground tooth profile (Figure 30) and large
gullets to allow for large chip removal.
Figure 25. Ripping blade.
Cross-cut Blade: Used for cutting across the
grain. 10" cross-cut blades have between 60-80
teeth (Figure 26), alternate top bevel or steep
alternate top bevel tooth profiles (Figure 30),
small hook angle and a shallow gullet.
Figure 27. Combination blade.

Plywood Blade: Used for cutting plywood or
veneers. 10" plywood blades have 40-80 teeth
(Figure 28), a steep alternate top bevel tooth pro-
file (Figure 30) and very shallow gullet.
Figure 29. Optional dado blade.
• Wobble Dado Blade—Also a dedicated dado
blade, a wobble blade usually consists of a sin-
gle 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 travel. Wobble blades are an
inexpensive option when visibly pleasing chan-
nels are not a concern.
Figure 28. Plywood blade.
Thin-kerf: Designed for saws with smaller
motors and for reducing material waste, thin-kerf
blades are thinner than standard blades.
Performance and accuracy can be maintained by
the use of blade stabilizers.
Moulding Heads: A moulding head is a cutter-
head that attaches to the arbor and holds individ-
ual moulding knives. They should only be used by
professional woodworkers with training beyond
the scope of this manual.
This section on blade selection is by no means
comprehensive. Always follow the saw blade
manufacturer's recommendations to ensure safe
and efficient operation of your table saw.
Some blade guards/splitters are thicker
than thin-kerf blades. DO NOT use the thin-
kerf blade if this is the case or serious per-
sonal injury could result.
Dado Blades: There are two types of dado
blades: stacked and wobble.
• Stacked Dado Blade—These dedicated dado
cutting blades consist of a set of up to 8 indi-
vidual blades. Multiple cutters are "stacked"
between two outside blades. The width of the
dado is determined by the combination of cut-
ters that are “stacked” together. The dado is cut
in a single pass leaving a smooth and square
channel in the face of the workpiece as shown
on Page 32. Stacked dado blades are the most
expensive option but are worth considering if
your projects require a lot of visible dado cuts.
A typical stacked dado blade is shown in
Figure 29.

6. Turn on the saw and allow it to come to full
Crosscutting
speed.
7. Hold the workpiece firmly against the face of
the miter gauge and ease it into the blade as
shown in Figure 31.
A crosscut is a cut against the grain direction of
the workpiece. Crosscutting man-made wood
products like plywood is performed by cutting par-
allel to the shortest side.
Turn off the saw and allow the blade to
come to a complete stop before removing
the cut-off piece. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could result in serious personal injury
Keep the blade guard in
the down position at all
times. Failure to do this
could result in serious
personal injury or death.
To make a 90˚ crosscut using the miter gauge:
1. Adjust the miter gauge to the 90˚ position.
2. Adjust the fence completely away from the
cutting operation.
3. Position the miter gauge in one of the two
miter slots.
4. Adjust the blade height so the highest saw
1
tooth protrudes approximately ⁄4" above the
workpiece.
Figure 31. Cross-cut operation.
5. Hold the workpiece against the miter gauge
and line up the cut with the blade.

Ripping
Stand to the left of the blade line-of-cut
when ripping a board. Serious personal
injury could occur if kickback results.
A rip cut is a cut with the grain direction of the
workpiece. Ripping man-made wood products
like plywood is performed by cutting parallel to
the longest side.
8. Using a push stick, feed the workpiece
through the saw blade as shown in Figure
32, until the workpiece is completely past the
saw blade. When a small width is to be
ripped and a push stick cannot be safely put
between the blade and rip fence, rip a larger
piece to obtain the desired piece.
Keep the blade guard in
the down position at all
times. Failure to do this
could result in serious
personal injury or death.
To make a rip cut:
1. Set the fence to the desired width of cut on
the fence rail scale.
2. Adjust the blade height so the highest saw
1
tooth protrudes approximately ⁄4" above the
workpiece.
3. Joint one long edge of the workpiece on a
jointer.
4. Set up any safety devices such as feather-
boards or other anti-kickback devices.
Figure 32. Ripping operation.
5. With the saw disconnected from the
power source, rotate the blade to make
sure it does not come into contact with any of
the safety devices.
Turn off the saw and allow the blade to
come to a complete stop before removing
the cut-off piece. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could result in serious personal injury
6. Plug the saw into the power source, and turn
on the saw and allow it to come to full speed.
7. The jointed edge of the workpiece must be
slide against the fence during the cutting
operation.

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 dado blade
(Figure 57) or a standard saw blade.
Dado operations present very real hazards
requiring proper procedures to avoid seri-
ous injury. The chance of kickback is
always greater when dado blades are used
so extra care must be taken. Any movement
of the stock 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.
Figure 33. Single-blade dado cut.
Never allow hands or arms to be above or
behind the saw blade. Should kickback
occur, the hands and arms could be pulled
into the saw blade causing serious person-
al injury.
To use a stacked or wobble dado blade:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. Remove the table insert, splitter guard, and
regular saw blade.
Always use push sticks, featherboards,
push paddles and other safety accessories
whenever possible to increase safety and
control during operations which require the
blade guard and splitter to be removed from
the saw. Failure to follow this warning could
result in serious personal injury.
3. Attach and adjust the dado blade system as
recommended in the dado blade manufac-
turer’s instructions.
4. Install the dado table insert.
5. Raise the dado blade up to the desired depth
of cut (depth of dado channel desired).
7. Reconnect the saw to the power source.
8. With one finger ready to push the OFF but-
ton, turn the saw on. The blade should run
smooth with no vibrations or wobbling.
Never perform a through cut operation with
a dado blade. A dado blade was designed to
make non-through cuts only. Failure to fol-
low this warning could result in serious per-
sonal injury.
9. When the blade has reached full speed, per-
form a test cut with a scrap piece of wood.
6. If dadoing along the long length of your work-
piece, adjust the distance between the fence
and the inside edge of the blade to suit your
needs as shown in Figure 33.

10. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat with your fin-
ish stock.
Never allow hands or arms to be above or
behind the saw blade. Should kickback
occur, the hands and arms could be pulled
into the saw blade causing serious person-
al injury.
ALWAYS replace the blade guard after
dadoing is complete. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury.
Using a standard saw blade:
Always use push sticks, featherboards,
push paddles and other safety accessories
whenever possible to increase safety and
control during operations which require the
blade guard and splitter to be removed from
the saw. Failure to follow this warning could
result in serious personal injury.
1. Clearly mark the width of the dado cut on
your workpiece. Include marks on the edge
of your workpiece so you can clearly identify
your intended cut while the material is laying
flat on the saw table.
2. Raise the blade up to the desired depth of
cut (depth of dado channel desired).
4. Turn on the saw and allow the blade to reach
full speed.
3. If dadoing along the long length of your work-
piece, adjust the fence so the blade is
aligned with the inside of your dado channel
as shown in Figure 34.
5. Perform a test cut on a scrap piece of wood.
Determine if the depth of cut is correct.
6. If the cut is satisfactory, repeat with your fin-
ish stock.
Always turn the saw off and wait until the
blade has come to a complete stop before
adjusting the fence. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury.

7. Re-adjust the fence so the blade is aligned
with the other edge of the intended dado
channel. Be sure to keep the cuts within your
marks; otherwise, the dado will be too big.
Rabbet Cutting
Commonly used in furniture joinery, a rabbet is a
straight groove cut in the edge of the workpiece.
Rabbets can be cut using either a dado blade
(Figure 29) or a standard saw blade.
8. Continue making cuts toward the center of
the dado with your subsequent cuts until the
dado is complete.
Always replace the blade guard after dado-
ing is complete. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could result in serious personal injury.
Rabbet operations present very real haz-
ards requiring proper procedures to avoid
serious injury. The chance of kickback is
always greater when dado blades are used
so extra care must be taken. Any movement
of the stock 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.
To attach a sacrificial fence:
Rabbet cutting with a dado blade requires the use
of a sacrificial fence attachment as shown in
Figure 35.

1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
13. Slide the fence assembly over the saw blade.
The blade should NOT touch the sacrificial
fence.
2. Cut a piece of wood that is as long and tall as
the metal fence and 3⁄4" thick. This will be the
sacrificial fence. Make sure the wood is a
uniform thickness and free of knots and
defects.
Cutting rabbets with the dado blade:
1. Adjust the saw blade to the maximum height
needed for the rabbeting operation.
3. Attach the sacrificial fence to the metal fence
with screws or clamps.
4. Remove the blade guard/splitter assembly,
the table insert, and the regular saw blade
from the arbor.
Never perform a through cut operation with
a dado blade. A dado blade was designed to
make non-through cuts only. Failure to fol-
low this warning could result in serious per-
sonal injury.
5. Install and adjust the dado blade system as
recommended in the dado blade instructions.
2. If rabbeting along the long length of your
workpiece, adjust the distance between the
fence and the workpiece to suit your needs
as shown in Figure 36.
6. Adjust the saw blade to maximum height
needed for the rabbeting operation.
7. Raise the blade an additional 1⁄4".
8. Slide the metal fence with the attached sac-
rificial fence along side the blade.
9. Using a felt pen, draw the blade profile onto
the sacrificial fence.
10. Remove the sacrificial fence from the metal
fence.
11. Using a bandsaw or jig saw, cut the marked
blade profile from the sacrificial fence.

Lubrication
Table
The sealed ball bearings in the motor and
throughout the Model G1023Z Series require no
maintenance during their lifetime. When they do
wear out, replacements can be obtained through
the Grizzly Parts Department.
The table is made from cast iron. If preventative
measures are not taken, the table surface will rust.
Regularly wipe sawdust from the table to prevent
rust causing moisture from becoming trapped
against the table. Regular applications of products
like SLIPIT® will prevent rust as the saw is used on
a daily basis. For long term storage, use products
such as Boeshield T-9®. Both of these products
are available in the Grizzly catalog.
Lubricate the areas indicated below every 12
months:
BLADE ANGLING TRUNNION—The front and
back trunnions each have a semi-circle groove
that needs to be lubricated with an automotive
wheel bearing grease.
BLADE HEIGHT TRUNNION—The blade height
trunnion pivots on a steel rod. This should be
lubricated with 6 or 7 drops of light machine oil.
V-Belt
To ensure optimum power transmission from the
motor to the blade, the V-belts must be in good
condition and operate under the proper tension.
When replacing V-belts, replace all three at the
same time—even if they do not all appear worn.
WORM GEARS These should be lubricated
—
with an automotive wheel bearing grease.
Belt tension should be checked at least every 3
months; more often if using the table saw inten-
sively.
The V-belts are accessed through the cavity on
the right side of the saw. They link the arbor and
motor pulleys.
To check V-belt tension:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. With moderate pressure, push the center of
each V-belt.
3. Note the amount of deflection. Deflection
1
should be approximately ⁄2", similar to
Figure 39.

To replace the V-belts:
!
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. Remove the blade.
3. Adjust the arbor so it is up all the way and in
the 90° position.
4. Place a board under the motor and loosen
the motor mount bolt. Slowly lower the arbor
until the motor rests on the board, allowing
the belts to be loose on the pulleys.

SECTION 8: SERVICE ADJUSTMENTS
45˚ & 90˚ Stops
Disconnect power to the
machine when perform-
ing any maintenance,
assembly or adjust-
ments. Failure to do this
may result in serious
personal injury.
1. Set your blade angle at zero as shown on the
angle indicator on the front of the saw and
raise the blade several inches above the
table.
!
2. Place a machinist’s square flat on the table
and slide it alongside the blade. The square
should contact the blade evenly from bottom
to top. Make sure that a blade tooth does not
obstruct the movement of the square.
Keep loose clothing
rolled up and out of the
way of machinery and
keep hair pulled back.
3. Adjust the handwheel until the square is
flush with the blade. Loosen the tilt indicator
arrow, set to zero, and retighten. Loosen and
adjust the stop bolt on the left side of the
front trunnion to allow a 90° stop point. See
Figure 40 for details.
Wear safety glasses
during the entire adjust-
ment process. Failure
to comply may result in
serious personal injury.
4. Turn the blade angle handwheel until the
angle indicator points at the desired angle.
5. Tighten the handwheel locking knob.
6. Repeat Steps 1-6 for setting the blade to 45°
and adjust the 45° stop bolt on the right side
of the front trunnion. Use the 45° side of a
combo square or a bevel gauge set at 45°.

6. If the blade tip does not touch the end of the
adjustable square similar to the first mea-
surement, then the table will need to be
adjusted.
Blade Parallelism
Your table saw will give the best results if the
miter slot and the rip fence are adjusted parallel
to the blade. If either of these are not exactly par-
allel, your cuts and your finished work will be
lower in quality, but more important, 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.
7. To adjust the table, loosen the four bolts in
the table mounting locations (see Figure 42)
and slightly tap the table. Repeat Steps 1-5
until satisfactory. Do not forget to tighten the
table mounting bolts when finished.
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. Use an adjustable square to measure the
distance from the miter slot to a carbide tip
on the blade as shown in Figure 41. Make
sure that the face of the adjustable square is
even along the miter slot.
Table Mount Holes
3. With the end of the adjustable square just
touching the tip, lock the square in place.
Now, mark the carbide tip with a magic mark-
er where you made this measurement.
Figure 42. Table mounting bolt holes.
4. Rotate that tip to the other end of the table
insert.
8. Now check to see if the blade remains paral-
lel to the miter slot when tilted to 45°.
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.
9. Tilt the blade to 45° and repeat Steps 1-5. If
the blade is still parallel to the miter slot, con-
tinue on to the “Miter Gauge” instructions.
Otherwise, continue with the next step.
!
10. 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 between the table and cabinet
over each of the four table mounting bolts.
Use caution and remain
alert when working
around the saw blade.
Failure to follow this
warning could result in
serious personal injury
or death.

11. Refer to Figures 43 & 44, for shim place-
ment. 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 cor-
ners #3 and #4. Very thin shim stock works
well, just make sure they are all the same
thickness, and you put an equal number
under each of the two corners.

12. Tighten down one bolt a small amount and
then move on to each of the others, tighten-
ing each down the same amount. Continue
to rotate through the bolts, tightening them a
little each time until they are all secure.
#2 Shim
#3 Shim
13. Now recheck the blade to miter slot at 90°
and 45° by repeating Steps 1-5. If the dis-
tance of A and B are equal, continue to the
“Miter Gauge” instructions. If the distances
are still off, repeat Steps 9-12.

secure. Repeat Step 12 on Page 25. If the
table is removed in the future, be sure to re-
install the shims the same way they came
off.

4. Reattach the table, making sure there is ade-
quate blade clearance through all blade
adjustments. Recheck guard alignment to
the blade and to the table top. Adjust as nec-
essary and tighten down all the bolts before
use.
Blade Alignment
The blade position can be adjusted slightly in
case it contacts the table insert when raised or
tilted. This adjustment can be made either by
moving the whole trunnion assembly, or by just
moving the arbor bracket. Try adjusting by mov-
ing the whole trunnion first, this is the easier of
the two ways.
5. If the blade is still contacting the insert,
repeat Steps 1-4. Check all other adjust-
ments.
6. Recheck the blade to miter slot adjustments,
To adjust the blade position by moving the
trunnion:
and adjust as necessary.
Bracket Lock Bolt
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source!
2. Remove the table and wings and set them to
one side. Be sure to note the position of the
table shims. Replace them to their original
position before re-attaching the table.
3. Loosen the four trunnion mounting bolts as
shown in Figure 45, and nudge to either the
left or right depending on where the blade is
hitting the saw.
Arbor Bracket

of the motor pulley is required. Simply loosen
the setscrew in the middle motor groove pul-
ley and slowly slide the pulley towards the
end of the motor shaft. Once the V-belts are
back in alignment, tighten the setscrew
securely.
6. Re-attach the table, making sure there is
adequate blade clearance through all blade
adjustments. Recheck guard alignment to
the blade and to the table top. Adjust as nec-
essary and tighten down all the bolts before
