CAUTION!
HAVE YOU READ GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES FOR THE TABLE SAW
BEFORE OPERATING THIS SAW YOUR SAFETY DEPENDS ON IT.
VERIFY THE FOLLOWING EVERY TIME THE SAW IS USED:
1. THE BLADE IS TIGHT.
2. THE BEVEL ANGLE LOCKING KNOB IS TIGHT.
3. IF RIPPING, THE FENCE LOCKING KNOB IS TIGHT, AND THE FENCE IS PARALLEL,
AND THE MITRE GAUGE KNOB IS TIGHT.
4. IF CROSSCUTTING, THE MITRE GAUGE KNOB IS TIGHT.
5. THE BLADE GUARD AND SPLITTER ARE IN PLACE, AND ARE WORKING PROPERLY.
6. SAFETY GLASSES ARE BEING WORN.
FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THESE SAFETY RULES CAN GREATLY INCREASE THE
CHANCES OF INJURY.

USING THE TABLE EXTENSION
(FIG. 23)
1. Unlock the table extension knob (2) on the
two extension tube brackets.
2. Slide the extension tubes in or out until the
scale on the front tube is positioned at the
desired distance. Lock the table extension
clamp bolts (2).
3. To adjust fence position, loosen lock handles
(2) and position auxiliary fence (1).
4. Tighten lock handles (2).
Before using the table saw, polish the table with an automotive wax in order to keep it clean and
make it easier to slide the workpiece.
There are two basic types of table saw cuts: ripping and crosscutting. In general, ripping means
cutting with the grain, along the length of the workpiece. Crosscutting means either cutting
across the width or across the grain of the workpiece. However, with man made materials, this
distinction can be difficult to make. Therefore, cutting a piece of wood to a different width is
ripping, and cutting across the short dimension is crosscutting. Neither ripping nor crosscutting
operations can be performed safety freehand: ripping requires the use of the rip fence, and
crosscutting requires the use of the mitre gauge.
