INITIAL OPERATION
Once the assembly is complete, run your machine to make sure it runs properly and is ready for
regular operation.
Operators familiar with this saw should follow this procedure on a regular basis; approximately
every 3 month. Operators new to the saw should be trained by a qualified operator familiar with
table saw operation and follow this procedure daily for approximately 1
– 2 months.
This procedure should also be performed whenever the saw has been moved, is being taken
out of storage, or after any service work.
The initial operation is used to test and verify:

The motor powers up and runs correctly, and

The safety lockout key on the switch works correctly.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop
using the machine immediately. Refer to the Troubleshooting.
Test run the machine:
1. Make sure you have read the safety instructions within this manual and that the machine is
setup properly.
2. Lower the blade all the way down below the table surface.
3. Connect the machine to the power source.
4. Verify that the machine is operating correctly by turning it ON.

When operating correctly, the machine runs smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing
noises.

Investigate and correct strange or unusual noises or vibrations before operating the machine
further. Always disconnect the machine from power when investigating or correcting potential
problems.
5. Turn the machine OFF.
6. Remove the paddle switch safety lockout key.
7. Try to start the machine with the paddle switch.

If the machine DOES NOT start, the switch disabling feature IS
working as designed.
WARNING:
Before operating; make sure it is positioned firmly on a solid
work surface. If it tips over on you, it could cause severe injury or death.
