Unpacking - Craftsman 124.58833 Operator's Manual

• Adjust table inserts flush with table top. Never operate saw
unless proper insert is installed.
• Never feed material into the cutting tool from the rear of
the saw. An accident and serious injury could result.
THINK SAFETY
Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alert-
ness at all times when the saw is being used.
Never use another person as a substitute for a table exten-
sion, or as additional support for a workpiece that is longer or
wider than basic saw table, or to assist in feeding, supporting
or pulling the workpiece.
Do not pull the workpiece through the saw blade—position
your body at the infeed side of the guard; start and complete
the cut from that same side. This will require added table
support for long or wide workpieces that extend beyond the
length or width of the saw table.
CAUTION: Follow safety instructions that appear on the front
of your saw.

UNPACKING

Refer to Figure 2.
• Open shipping box. Remove all parts, except saw body,
from both styrofoam packing bases and set parts and top
base safely aside. Remove the dust chute from the saw
cabinet.
• Use utility knife to cut down the four corners of the shipping
box, allowing cardboard sides to lay on floor and fully
exposing the styrofoam packing base.
• Cut away enough styrofoam from motor cover side of
packing base so that, with the aid of an assistant, you can
slide the saw body from the base onto cardboard. Saw
table will remain on cardboard until instructed in Assembly
section to turn saw body upright onto leg base.
CAUTION: Do not attempt assembly if parts are missing.
Use this manual to order replacement parts.
Check for shipping damage or missing parts. If any parts are
damaged or missing, call 1-888-331-4569 for replacement.
