  • Page 4 Always use the anti-kickback finger attachment when making rip cuts. Feed stock from the opposite end from the anti-kickback finger attachment. Always use the saw blade guides and fence, and never push stock being cut by hand. Tighten and lock all adjusting (saw blade positioning) screws before operating.
  • Page 5 Handle. 22. Avoid Kickback of stock: - For rip cuts, the saw blade must be exactly parallel to the fence to prevent pinching or heeling. Use a stock separator on the output side of the stock cut.
  • Page 6: Installation

    Assembly Drawing at the end of this manual. If any parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this manual as soon as possible. During the assembly and installation procedure, you may have to refer to the Parts List and Assembly Drawings located at the end of this manual.
  • Page 7: Operating Controls

    Screw Clamp (137) ON / OFF Switch – The Switch has a built-in locking feature which requires a key to be inserted before the saw can be turned ON. Removing the Key and pushing the OFF button locks the saw against unintended use.
  • Page 8 Depth of Cut – The Elevating Handle (100) at the rear of the arm is used to raise and lower the height of the Saw Blade. Turn the Elevating Handle clockwise to raise the Saw Blade or counter- clockwise to lower it.
  • Page 9 - Check that the Saw blade follows this line from front to back. If the Saw Blade moves to the right or left side of the line as it travels the entire length of the Arm, loosen the Screw Clamps (137) and lightly tap on the Table left or right side until there is full travel alignment.
  • Page 10 With the same hand that you turned ON the machine, loosen the Carriage Lock Knob and slowly move the Saw Blade back, cutting the rip fence; and then move it all the way forward, cutting a groove into the entire depth of the plywood.
  • Page 11: Operation

    Adjust the Elevating Handle (100) so the Saw Blade (17) height is only 1/8 inch into the worktable. Push the Handle backward so that the Saw Blade is in behind the stock to be cut. Press the green Switch (122). Squeeze the Handle Trigger and slowly pull the Handle toward you, causing the Saw Blade to cut the stock.
  • Page 12 Ripping is the process of cutting stock along the grain (or lengthwise). The stock if fed into the Saw Blade against the blade rotation (similar to a table saw). The fence is used as a guide to help maintain cutting width.
  • Page 13 Out-ripping is done when the in-rip position will not permit a wide enough cut. This function moves the Saw Blade to the front of the machine. This operation is the same as in-rip cut- ting (previously described), with the exception that the Pivot Yoke is turned so that the Handle is on the right side of the machine (opposite of the in-rip position).
  • Page 14: Maintenance

    Saw Blades – Never use a replacement blade rated lower than 5,000 RPM, and larger than 8 inches diameter. Motor Brushes – Inspect the two motor Brushes (55) after the first 50 hours of saw use. After that, check every 10 hours. Replace if necessary by a qualified technician.
