Brake Position Adjustment - SawStop CB31230 Owner's Manual

Setting Up Your Saw
Install dado sets just like you install a blade. For dado widths larger than about 3/16", remove the arbor washer
and tighten the arbor nut against the dado set.
Note: if your saw uses three phase power, do not install the blade until the power supply has been connected
and you have verified that the motor spins in the correct direction. See page 25 for instructions on connecting
your saw to a power supply.
WARNING! Do not attempt to use saw blades made of materials that are electrically non-
conductive (e.g., abrasive blades, blades with plastic hubs, etc.). The SawStop ® safety
system will not allow the saw to operate if these blades are installed.
WARNING! Never install the blade backwards. The brake might not stop a blade that is
installed backwards, therefore you may receive a serious injury.

7. Brake Position Adjustment:

I
t is important to make sure that the brake cartridge is close to, but not touching, the edge of the blade to
minimize the time it takes the safety system to stop the blade in the event of an accident. The spacing between
the brake cartridge and the blade should be checked whenever the blade or brake cartridge are changed. To
adjust the brake positioning, set the tilt angle to 0 degrees and adjust the blade elevation to approximately 1½
inches above the table top.
The spacing between the brake cartridge
and the blade is adjusted by the brake
positioning bolt mounted in the top of the
arbor block (see Fig. 9).
