To assemble your overarm blade guard:
1. thread the
1
⁄
2
"-13 hex nuts onto the four
threaded feet, then thread the correct foot
assembly into each of the two side support
legs.
2. attach the two side support legs to the main
vertical support with the
5
⁄
16
"-18 x 4" cap
screws, flat washers, and hex nuts.
Note: Choose one of the three height mount-
ing positions for the side support legs that will
best fit the height of your table saw.
3. thread the remaining two foot assemblies
into the extension tube, then slide the exten-
sion tube into the bottom of the vertical sup-
port. secure it in place with the
5
⁄
16
"-18 x
1
⁄
2
flange bolt.
4. adjust the feet so that the support assembly
sits level, then tighten the hex nuts on the
feet upward to secure the setting.
Note: The adjustable threaded feet can also
be used to vary the height of the blade guard
over the table saw.
5. With assistance, insert the shaft of the boom
assembly into the top of the vertical support.
Make sure it is fully seated.
6. to keep the boom from unexpectedly rotat-
ing, flip the stop bracket on top of the vertical
support up and secure it with the lock lever
7. slide the blade guard assembly onto the end
of the boom, then secure it in place by tight-
ening the cap screw.
Note: The blade guard assembly rotates on
the boom assembly to make further adjust-
ments to the blade guard height above the
blade.
8. securely clamp the 3" flexible dust hose
between the blade guard assembly and the
end of the dust collection boom. tug on it to
make sure it is secure.
9. Move the guard assembly against your table
saw in the position that best fits your opera-
tion, then make height and boom adjustments
so that:
• the guard is centered over the saw blade.
• there is equal clearance between the
blade and the guard on either side.
• the guard wheels rest on the table when
the blade guard pivot arms are fully extend-
ed down.
To avoid the risk of the blade guard coming
in contact with the saw blade during opera-
tion, always securely attach the blade guard
assembly to the table saw and properly posi-
tion the guard above the blade. Otherwise,
the blade guard could break apart and cause
serious personal injury or property dam-
age.
10. Make marks through the two holes of the bot-
tom connecting bracket onto the side of your
table saw.
11. drill holes into your table saw that will accom-
modate
1
⁄
4
" fasteners (not included), then
securely attach the blade guard assembly to
the table saw.
12. attach a adequate dust collection system to
the 4" open end of the dust collection boom.
Boom Rotation
to rotate the dust collection boom, loosen the lock
lever on top of the vertical support and move the
pivoting stop bracket out of the way. rotate the
boom as needed, then tighten the hex nut on the
side of the vertical support and lock it in place with
the jam nut.
