This saw is shipped with a riving knife that should be placed
in the “down” position for non-through cutting and must be
placed in the “up” position for all other cutting operations.
CAUTION:
Use caution when reaching inside the throat in the saw
table. Blade contact, even when the blade is still, may
result in injury to hands or arms.

Unplug the saw.
To place in the “up” position for all through cutting:

Remove the throat plate.
 Raise the saw blade by turning the height/bevel adjusting
handwheel clockwise.

Unlock the release lever by pulling it up.
 Grasp the riving knife and pull it towards the right side of
the saw to release the riving knife from the spring-loaded
riving clamp.

Pull the riving knife up until the internal pins are engaged
and the riving knife is above the saw blade.
 Lock the release lever by pushing the lever down.
WARNING:

release lever is difficult to lock, thoroughly clean lever
components using compressed air or a clean soft cloth as
described in the

Plates section in Maintenance . Failure to completely
lock the release lever can allow the riving knife to change
position during saw use, which could result in serious
personaly injury.

Reinstall the throat plate.
