CARRIAGE - Slides along track under arm and
supports yoke. Contained in two carriage covers, one
on each side of the arm. See Figure 8C.
CARRIAGE LOCK KNOB - Controls whether the
carriage is locked or can travel. Located on the left
side of the arm on the carriage cover. See Figure 8C.
COLUMN - Upright housing at the back of the saw,
consisting of a column support and a column tube.
The column tube can be raised or lowered with the
elevating handwheel at the front of the saw. See
Figures 8A and 8B.
CONTROL CUT DEVICE - Limits carriage speed to
prevent climb, using a cable from the carriage to the
column. Has a separate motor on left side, which is
activated by the switch trigger in the handle. The
cable returns the carriage to the column when the
motor is not activated. Speed is adjusted with a
thumbwheel on the handle. It runs on a separate
120V AC single voltage circuit. See Figure 8C.
,_ WARNING: When connecting only one of the
cords, squeeze the switch trigger in the handle. If
the main motor cord alone is connected, the
switch trigger in the handle will not operate the
control cut device. The carriage cannot be
advanced without power to the control cut device.
DUAL VOLTAGE - If needed, your main power
source may be rewired by a qualified electrician to
provide a 240V AC circuit. See the Electrical section.
DUST GUIDE - Directs sawdust, created from the cut
being made, in the direction you set. Located at the
rear of the upper blade guard. See Figure 8D.

the worktable (in front) that changes the height of the
arm and the blade. See Figure 8C.

FRONT TABLE - Fixed portion of the worktable that
supports the work. See Figure 8C.

climb during rip cuts. When blade parallels arm, hold
down is over the back of the blade. See Figure 8D.
