SAW SWITCH
The switch (2) is located on the front panel of the saw base (see
Fig. 22). To turn the saw ON move the switch to the up
position. To turn the saw OFF move the switch to the down
position.
LOCKING SWITCH IN “OFF” POSITION
When the saw is not in use, the switch should be locked in the
OFF position. To lock the switch in the OFF position, simply
pull out the safety key (1) from the center of the switch (see Fig.
22). The saw will not start with the key removed. However, if
the key is removed while the switch is in the ON position, it
can be turned off ONCE. The saw will not restart until the key
has been reinserted into the switch.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
This saw is equipped with a resetable overload relay button
(see Fig. 22). If the motor shuts off or fails to start due to
overloading or low voltage, turn the switch to OFF position and
let the motor cool down for at least five minutes. After the
motor has cooled down, push the reset button (3) to reset the
overload device. The saw should now start when the switch is
returned to the ON position.
To avoid injury, the ON/OFF switch should be in the OFF
position and the plug removed from the power source while
the motor cool down takes place. This will prevent
accidental starting when the reset button is pushed.
Overheating may be caused by misaligned parts, a dull
blade, or an undersized extention cord (see chart on page 5).
Inspect the saw for proper setup before using it again.
Before using the table saw, polish the table with an
automotive wax 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 is cutting with the grain along
the length of the workpiece. Crosscutting is cutting either
across the width or across the grain of the workpiece. However,
with manmade 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 may be done safely freehand.
Ripping requires the use of the rip fence and crosscutting
requires the use of the miter gauge.
RIPPING
To prevent serious injury:
•
Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of
your table saw to cause careless mistakes. Remember
that even a careless fraction of a second is enough to
cause a severe injury.
•
Keep both hands away from the blade and the path of
the blade.
•
The workpiece must have a straight edge against the
fence and must not be warped, twisted or bowed.
1. Remove the miter gauge and secure the rip fence to the
table.
2. Adjust the blade so it is about 1/8” higher than the
workpiece.

Have you read “POWER TOOL SAFETY” and
“TABLE SAW SAFETY” on pages 3 and 4 of this
Manual? If not, please do it now before you
operate this saw. Your safety depends on it!
Every time you use the saw you should verify
the following:
1. Blade is tight.
2. Bevel angle locking knob is tight.
3. If ripping, fence locking knob is tight and
fence is parallel to the miter gauge groove
4. If crosscutting, miter gauge knob is tight.
5. Blade guard and splitter are in place and
working properly.
6. Safety glasses are being worn.
Failure to adhere to these safety rules can
greatly increase the chances of injury.
