Blade Guard/Splitter
The blade guard and built-in splitter is used when-
ever cutting operations allow their use. The blade
guard is designed to provide a barrier between the
saw blade and the saw operator. The splitter min-
imizes the chances of kickbacks—the most com-
mon source of table saw injuries.
To mount the blade guard:
1. Disconnect the saw from its power source.
2. Zero the blade angle and raise the blade as
high as it goes.
3. Insert the outer lockwasher and and flat
washer onto the blade guard support bolt.
4. Thread the bolt through the splitter bracket
and place the flat washer and inner lock-
washer on the inside end of the bolt. See
Figure 11.
5. Attach the bolt to the threaded hole on the
rear face of the saw table.

6. Using the 3/4" long hex head bolts, attach
the splitter/blade guard assembly to the
splitter bracket. Fasten the assembly with
the nuts and 1/4" lockwashers provided.
