Operation - Delta 36-L336 Instruction Manual

OPERATIONAL CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS
To reduce the risk of personal injury, turn
unit off and disconnect it from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting
or when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause
injury.
STARTING AND STOPPING THE SAW
Make sure that the saw has been turned
"OFF" before plugging cord into outlet. Do not touch
the plug's metal prongs when unplugging or plugging
in the cord.
The POWER switch (X) Fig. 19 is located underneath
1.
the front left extension wing. To turn the saw "ON",
push the round button (X) Fig. 19.
2. To turn the saw "OFF", push the button (Y) Fig. 19.
LOCKING SWITCH IN THE "OFF" POSITION
IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the saw
should be turned off and the "ON" button locked out to
prevent unauthorized use. To lock out "ON" button, use a
standard long shackle lock (Z) Fig. 20, with a shackle that
is at least 2-3/4" (70 mm) long and with shackle posts no
larger than 9/32" (7 mm) thick.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Your saw is supplied with overload protection. If the motor
shuts off or fails to start due to overloading (cutting stock
too fast, using a dull blade, using the saw beyond its
capacity, etc.) or low voltage, let the motor cool three to
five minutes. The overload will automatically reset itself
and the machine can then be started again by pressing
the "ON" button.
NOTICE If the motor continually shuts off due to
overloading, contact a qualified electrician.

RAISING AND LOWERING THE BLADE
sp AVISO
Raise or lower the blade with the left handwheel (AA)
Fig. 21. Before raising or lowering the blade, be sure to
loosen the lock knob (BB) Fig. 21 by turning it counter-
clockwise.
To raise the saw blade, turn the handwheel (AA),
clockwise. To lower the saw blade, turn handwheel (AA)
counter-clockwise.
Tighten lock knob (BB) Fig. 21 to keep blade raised to your
desired height. Only a small amount of force is required
to lock the blade raising mechanism securely. Any added
force merely puts unnecessary strain on the locking device.
For most applications, it is recommended that you raise the blade 1/8" (3.2 mm) to 1/4" (6.4 mm) above the top surface of the
workpiece, as shown in Fig. 22. (NOTE: Guard removed for clarity only.)
NOTE: With hollow-ground blades, raise the blade to its maximum height to provide greater clearance.
Lock the blade in position before starting the saw.
TILTING THE BLADE
Tilt the blade to the left using the right handwheel (CC) Fig. 23.
