Read and understand the entire contents of this
manual
before
attempting
assembly
or
operation! Failure to comply may cause serious
injury.
Unpacking
Remove box and wood crating completely from
around saw. Check for shipping damage. Report
any damage immediately to your distributor and
shipping agent. Do not discard any shipping
material until the Table Saw is assembled and
running properly.
Compare the contents of your container with the

are intact. Missing parts, if any, should be reported
to your distributor. Read the instruction manual
thoroughly for assembly, maintenance and safety

Unbolt the saw from the skid.
2.
Carefully slide the saw from the pallet onto
the floor.
Do not connect the saw to the power source
until all assembly has been completed! Failure to
comply may cause serious injury!
The Metal Saw should be placed in an area with a
sturdy level floor, good ventilation and sufficient
lighting. Leave enough space around the machine
for mounting extension trays and bow swivel, and
loading and off-loading stock and general
maintenance work.
Cleaning
Exposed metal surfaces, such as the table top and
moveable vise sliding area, have been given a
protective coating at the factory. This should be
removed with a soft cloth moistened with
kerosene. Do not use acetone, gasoline, or lacquer
thinner for this purpose. Do not use solvents on
plastic parts, and do not use an abrasive pad
because it may scratch the surfaces.
