R. DONOTremove small p ieces of cut-off m aterial
thatmaybecome trapped i nside theblade" guard
while thesaw isrunning. This could
endanger your
hands or cause a kickback. Turn saw "OFF"
and
wait until blade stops.
S.
Useextra care when ripping wood that has a twisted
grain or is twisted or bowed - it may rock on the
table and/or pinch the sawblade.
10. KNOW YOUR CUTTING TOOLS
A.
Dull,
gummy,
or
improperly
sharpened or set
cutting tools can cause materia_ to stick, jam, stall
the saw, or kickback at the operator.
Minimize
potential
injury by proper cutting
tool
and machine maintenance.
NEVER
ATTEMPT
TO
FREE
A
STALLED
SAWBLADE
WITHOUT
FIRST TURNING
THE
SAW OFF.
B, Never use grinding wheels, abrasive cut-off wheels,
friction
wheels (metal slitting blades) wire wheels or
buffing wheels.
11. USE ONLY
ACCESSORIES DESIGNED FOR THIS
SAW,
12. Crosscuttingoperations are more conveniently worked
and with greater safety if an auxiliary wood facing is
attached to the miter gauge using the holes provided.
However, the facing must not interfere with the proper
functioning of the sawblade guard.
13. Make sure the top of the arbor or cutting tool rotates
toward
you
when standing in normal operating
position. Also make sure the cutting tool, arbor collars
and arbor nut are installed properly. Keep the cutting
tool as low as possible for the operation
being
performed. Keep all guards in place whenever possible.
WEAR
YOUR
14. Do not use any blade or other cutting tool marked for
an operating
speed less than 3450 RPM. Never use a
cutting
tool
larger in diameter than the diameter for
which the saw was designed. For greatest safety and
efficiency
when ripping,
use the maximum
diameter
blade for which
the saw is designed, since under these
conditions the spreader is nearest the blade.
15. Adjust table inserts flush with the table top. NEVER
Operate the saw unless the proper insert is installed.
16. Never feed material into the cutting tool from the rear
of the saw. An accident and serious injury could result.
I7. THINK SAFETY.
Safety is a combination
of operator common sense and
alertness at all times when the saw is being used.
18. NOTE
AND
FOLLOW
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
THAT APPEAR ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SAW.

MANUAL
BEFORE OPERATING

2.
USE SAW-BLADE

FOR "THRU-SAWlNG"
3.
KEEP HANDS
OUT OF PATH OF SAWBLADE
4.
USE A "PUSH-STICK"
WHEN REQUIRED
5.
KNOW HOW TO AVOID

ALWAYS
REMEMBER
THAT A CARELESS FRACTION

20, NOTE;
Do not overtighten arbor nut. Use the arbor
wrench to just "snug" it.
The operation
of any power tool can result in foreign
objects being thrown
into the eyes, which
can result in
severe eye damage. Always wear safety gogglescomplying
with ANSI Z87.1 (shown on Package) before commencing
power tool operation. Safety Goggles are available at Sears
retail or catalog stores.

MOTOR
SAFETY
PROTECTION
The saw motor
is equipped
with
a manual-reset
thermal
overload protector,
designed
to open the power line circuit
when the motor
temperature
exceeds a safe value.
NOTE'.
The
starting
relay
is a GRAVITY

TYPE. NEVER
TURN
THE POWER ON WHILE

by moving the saw switch lever to the "ON"

4.
Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result
if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit
is fused
with a fuse other than those recommended, Do not use
a fuse of greater capacity without consulting
the power
company,
5. Although
the motor
is designed for operation
on the
voltage and frequency
specified on motor
nameplate,
normal
loads will
be handled
safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the maneplate voltage.
Heavy loads, however,
require that voltage at motor
terminals
by not
less than
the voltage specified on
nameplate.
6, Most
motor
troubles
may
be traced
to
loose or
incorrect
connections,
overloading,
reduced
input
voltage (which results when small size wires are used in
the supply
circuit)
or
when
the supply
circuit
is
extremely long.
Always
check connection,
load and
supply
circuit
when
the
motor
fails
to
perform
satisfactorily.
Check wire sizes and lengths with table at
end of this section.
CONNECTING
TO POWER SOURCE OUTLET
This saw must be grounded
while
in use to protect the
operator from electrical shock.
