Riving Knife and Guard Installation
Description
Referring to Figure 7:
The complete riving knife and guard assembly is
shown in A.
Installation
Referring to Figure 8:
1. Set the saw blade to the 90 degree position
and raise it all the way (refer to Handwheel
Adjustments on page 13).
2. Remove the table insert (J).
3. Located inside the table and accessible
through the insert opening (Figure 8 inset),
place the quick-release clamp lock handle (K)
in the unlock position.
4. The floating clamp block (L) is spring loaded
and will move away (O) from the fixed
block (M), leaving a gap.
5. Insert the bottom of the riving knife (N1, N2) all
the way into the gap between the clamp blocks
(L, M); then lock the handle (K).
6. Replace the insert (J) back on the table. The
saw blade and riving knife should protrude
through the slot in the insert.
You should feel a snap as each piece locks in
position. Attempt to lift as a test to make sure that
they are securely locked in place.
Adjustment
The clamping blocks (L, M, Fig. 8) are adjusted at
the factory and no further adjustment of the blade
guard and riving knife assembly should be
necessary. However, proper alignment is very
important. Before operating the table saw, read
Riving Knife Adjustment (p.14) to verify and follow
the adjustment procedure if necessary.
Note: please use the correct thickness of Riving
Knife to fit your blade.
