USE YOUR COMPACT TABLE SAW
Status Lights & Codes
The green and red lights under the power switch
indicate the status of the saw. The lights function
independently or in combination, depending on the
status. Either light can flash slow or fast, or be on
continuously. The red light can flash once indicating
the saw is in Bypass Mode (
).
Error codes not listed on the label may also appear.
If you are not able to identify the code or resolve
an error situation, contact the SawStop Service
department at 503-582-9934 or service@sawstop.
com (
See the following descriptions of the status
conditions.
Bypass Mode On
The saw is running in Bypass Mode and
will NOT
activate
the brake cartridge if you contact the spinning
blade. Bypass Mode allows you to cut electrically
conductive materials without activating the brake.
When the saw is in Bypass Mode, the safety system
disables the brake (
).
THERE IS NO PROTECTION IN BYPASS MODE; the
brake will not activate if you touch the spinning
blade. Use Bypass Mode only to test a material
for conductivity and to cut conductive materials.
Use extra caution in Bypass Mode.
Paddle Out
The Start/Stop paddle is in the ON position (pulled
out) before you turn on the power switch. Push the
paddle in to the OFF position to clear this code. This
is a safety feature to prevent the saw from restarting
after a power loss or after the safety system has
turned the saw off due to an error detected during
use.
Blade Contact While Stopped
There was contact with the blade (or a portion of the
arbor) when the blade was not spinning in Standby
Mode. Contact in this mode does not activate the
brake. The code will automatically clear within 5
seconds after contact has ended. The system will not
allow the motor to start while this code is displayed.
Blade Contact During Bypass
Contact was detected while the saw was running in
Bypass Mode. The code indicates that the brake would
have activated if the system had not been in Bypass
Mode. The brake will not activate but the safety
system will continue to monitor for contact. This error
will automatically clear once the blade has finished
coasting down.
Brake Cartridge Key Error
The cartridge locking key is not installed correctly. To
clear this error, first turn the power switch to OFF,
and then make sure the cartridge key is fully locked
(
Overload Due to Moisture
The material is too wet or green. Cycle the Start/Stop
paddle and the power switch to clear. Allow material
to dry or cut in Bypass Mode.
Small or Missing Blade
Switch power off, unplug the power cord and install
10" blade.
Blade Stalled
Cycle power and cut material more slowly. Call
SawStop Technical Support if issue persists (
).
Replace Cartridge
The brake cartridge has already activated or there
is some other permanent defect that cannot be
corrected. If the cartridge has not activated, cycle the
power off and on. If the error continues, install a new
cartridge.
