WARNING
!
To avoid injury, the ON / OFF switch
should be in the OFF position and
the plug removed from the power
source while the cool down takes
place, to prevent accidental starting
when the reset button is pushed.
Overheating may be caused by
misaligned parts or a dull blade or
undersized extensing cord. Inspect
your saw for proper setup before
using it again.
USING THE TABLE EXTENSION
(FIG. VV, WW)
If the table extension is not parallel
with the table, remove the bolts (1)
and position the extension leveling
spacers (2) between the table
extension and tube until it is parallel
with the table, then tighten the bolts (1).

CUTTING OPERATIONS
There are two basic types of cuts:
ripping and crosscutting. Ripping is
cutting along the length and the grain of
the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting
either across the width or across the
grain of the workpiece. (It is not safe to
rip or crosscut by freehand). Ripping
requires the use of the rip fence, and
crosscutting requires the miter gauge.
NEVER USE A RIP FENCE AND
MITER GAUGE TOGETHER.
WARNING
!
Before using the saw each time,
check the following:
1. The blade is tightened to the arbor.
2. The blade bevel lock knob
is tightened.
3. If ripping, make sure the fence is
locked into position and is parallel
to the miter gauge groove.
4. The blade guard is in place and
working properly.
5. Safety glasses are worn.
The failure to adhere to these
common safety rules, and those
printed in the front of this manual,
can greatly increase the likelihood
of injury.
