Installing Handwheels On Saw Base; Assembling Steel Leg Stand; Loose Parts List - Craftsman 315.228410 Owner's Manual

Assembly is best done in the area where the saw will be used. When you remove the table saw base, loose
parts, and hardware from the packing materials, check all items with the loose parts list and drawing. If you are
unsure about the description of any part, refer to the drawing. If any parts are missing, delay assembling until
you have obtained the missing part(s).
INSTALLING HANDWHEELS ON SAW BASE
See Figure 6.
• Each handwheel bag contains a metal handwheel,
a screw (3/16-24 x 112 in.), and a fiat washer
(3/16 in.).
• Align the handwheels to the shaft ends that extend
from the front and right side of the table sawbase.
Match the flat spots on the shaft and inside the
handwheel. Insert a screw and a fiat washer in the
handwheel center and tighten with a 4 mm hex key.

Note: If you mount the saw base on a bench instead
of the legs, go to the Assembling Table Exten-
sions procedure. The bench surface must have
an opening for sawdust to fall through, as large
as the opening in the bottom of the saw base, A
height of 36 in. from the top of the saw table to
the floor is recommended.
ASSEMBLING STEEL LEG STAND
See Figures 7 and 8.
• Take the following hardware from the leg stand
hardware bag:
24 carriage bolts (5/16-18 x 3/4 in.)
4 leveling feet
32 flat washers (5/16 in.)
32 hex nuts (5/16-18)
Note: Remaining hardware from this bag is used for
mounting leg stand on the table saw base.
• Take 4 legs and 8 braces from loose parts.
• Place a short upper brace inside two of the legs,
with the legs wide end up. (Upper braces have two
large holes in each end.) Make sure the two posts
on the leg align with the small holes on the brace,
