The safe use of this product requires an understanding of
the information on the tool and in this operator’s manual as
well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before
use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating
features and safety rules.
ACCESSORY STORAGE
- Convenient storage areas for
the push stick, riving knife, wrenches, blade guard, miter
gauge, and rip fence are located underneath the saw table.
ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS
- Kickback is a hazard in which
the workpiece is thrown back toward the operator. The teeth
on the anti-kickback pawls point away from the workpiece.
If the workpiece should be pulled back toward the opera-
tor, the teeth dig into the wood to help prevent or reduce
the possibility of kickback. The anti-kickback pawls may
be bypassed.
BEVEL LOCKING LEVER
- This lever, located just under the
saw table surface on the front of the saw, locks the angle
setting of the blade.
BEVEL SCALE
- The easy-to-read scale on the front of the
saw shows the exact blade angle.
FEATURES
BLADE
- For maximum performance, it is recommended that
you use the 10 in. carbide tipped combination blade provided
with the saw. The blade is raised and lowered with the height/
bevel adjusting handwheel. Bevel angles are locked with the
bevel locking lever. Additional blade styles of the same high
quality are available for specific operations such as ripping.
Your local dealer can provide you with complete information.
Blade kerf width must be within the limits stamped on the
riving knife.
WARNING:
Do not use blades rated less than the speed of this tool.
Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury.
BLADE GUARD
- Always keep the removable blade guard
down over the saw blade for through-sawing cuts.
DUST CHUTE
- The built-in dust chute makes it easy to
dispose of sawdust. A vacuum hose may be attached to
the dust chute.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
- An electric brake has been provided
to stop blade rotation after the saw is turned off.
