ASSEMBLINGTABLE EXTENSIONS
See
Figure
10.
Locate the table extensions and the small hard-
ware bag with the following:
8 hex bolts (5/16-18 x 1-1/4 in.)
8 hex nuts (5/16-18)
16 fiat washers (5/16 in.)

WARNING:
The table extensions not only
provide a better cut on the workpiece but help
protect you. Serious injury can result from
workpiece binding or kickback due to twisted
rails or a misaligned rip fence.
With the saw upside down. align the extensions
with the table with the bevel edges in front. Put a
flat washer on each bolt. Attach the extensions to
the table by inserting the bolts from the direction of
the table.
Slip the remaining flat washers and hex nuts on the
bolts, Lightly tighten them with a 12 mm wrench.
Get help to stand the saw assembly upright using
the center saw table. Do not grasp the saw by the
extensions.

WARNING:
The extensions are very heavy. Do
not lift the saw table without help. Keep your
knees bent and lift with your legs, not your back.
Ignoring these precautions can result in back
injury.
ALIGNING
TABLE
EXTENSIONS
See Figure 11.
A good alignment allows the roils to slide on easily.
Stand at the front of the saw and line up the front
edges of the table and extensions.
To align extensions without damaging the table
saw, put a block of wood at the front of the table
where the extension meets the table, and tap the
block with a hammer. Check and repeat until the
front edges are even.
Lift each extension slightly until it is higher than the
table (if necessary, place a block of wood below
and tap upward). Center the block over the edges
and tap it. Recheck the front alignment. If it is even,
tighten the screws with a 12 mm wrench.
