Ripping; Maintenance - HARVEY HW110S-36G Instruction Manual

7.4 Ripping

"Ripping" means cutting with the grain of a natural
wood workpiece. In other man-made materials
such as MDF or plywood, ripping simply means
cutting lengthwise.
The rip fence is used to position and guide the
work. One edge of the work rides against the rip
fence while the flat side of the board rests on the
table. Since the work is pushed along the fence, it
must have a straight edge and make solid contact
with the table. The saw guard must be used. The
guard has a splitter to prevent the saw kerf from
closing.
Start the motor and advance the work holding it
down and against the fence. Never, stand in the
line of the saw cut when ripping. Hold the work with
both hands and push it along the fence and into the
saw blade..
Alternately, the feed can continue to the end of the
table, after which the work is lifted and brought
back along the outside edge of the fence. The
waste stock remains on the table and is not
touched with the hands until the saw is stopped
unless it is a large piece allowing safe removal.

8. Maintenance

This table saw has TEFC motor and sealed
lubricated bearings, which requires very little
maintenance other than minor lubrication and
cleaning. Please do the maintenance as following
contents.
LUBRICATION
Clean off the wood chips on the worm gears and
trunnions and apply the grease to keep them
lubricated.
Lubricate once a month.
CLEANING
Clean the wood chips on the table surface and in
the cabinet.
Clean once a day.
CHANGING BELT
Make sure the power cord is disconnected from
the power source!
1. Lower the blade completely, then open the
motor cover (right side), remove the repair panel
(left side), refer to Fig.25.
2. Loosen the hex bolt that secures the motor and
raise the motor fully to remove tension on the
V-Ribbed belt. Roll the V-Ribbed belt off.
3. Raise the motor and install a new V-Ribbed belt
onto the pulleys, lower the motor to tension the
V-Ribbed belt, then tighten the hex bolt.
