NOTE: If the blade binds in the workpiece, or the workpiece shifts during the cut, stop the motor, back the workpiece out of the saw, reposition workpiece, restart motor, and then begin the cut again.
Do not place hands, clothing or body parts under carriage or in cutting path of blade. Do not look directly down line of cut as dust and debris are generated during this operation.
7.As the workpiece passes through the saw, move to the other side and complete the cut by pulling the workpiece past the blade. Support the upper piece to prevent it from pinching the blade or the kerf protector, or falling away from the machine.
8.When cut is finished, turn off motor and wait for blade to come to a complete stop. Remove workpieces.
9.Rotate turntable back to vertical position and return it to the top of the guides. Lock the carriage.
Adjustments
The 511 Panel Saw is preset at the factory, so no adjustments should be necessary at first. However, certain alignments should be checked, and as the saw gets more use adjustments may be needed.
Changing the Blade
1.Disconnect saw from power source and observe appropriate lockout procedures to prevent machine from being accidentally powered.
2.Tighten carriage lock and remove the blade guard by unscrewing and removing the knob, shown in Figure 13.
3.Engage spindle lock (Figure 14) on the motor to keep spindle from turning. Use the wrench provided to loosen and remove the arbor bolt (NOTE: left hand threads, turn clockwise to loosen). See Figure 15.
