Manual Update

(For Models Mfg. Before 1/10; Sold After 7/10)

Phone #: (360) 734-3482 • Online Tech Support: tech-support@shopfox.biz • Web: www.shopfox.biz

We made a few changes to this table saw since the manual was originally written. The saw you received has a different blade guard with a clear shield, removable anti-kickback pawls, and a new mounting block that makes blade guard and riving knife installation/removal and adjustments much easier. As part of this change, the table saw is now equipped with a one-piece 1" arbor. This new arbor no longer accepts blades with a 5⁄8" arbor; thus, only blades with a 1" hole can be installed. (We apologize if this change causes any inconvenience.) Aside from these items, all other content in the original manual applies to your machine.

Before operating your new machine, you MUST read and understand this manual update AND the original manual to reduce the risk of injury from improper use or setup. Since this update covers changes made to the machine after the owner's manual was printed, you MUST keep this update with your owner's manual for future reference.

If you have questions, contact our Technical Support at (360) 734-3482 or email tech-support@shopfox.biz.

Inventory Differences

The inventory list shown in the original manual will not exactly match what you receive with your machine. Most notably, you will find a different blade guard and you will not find the 5⁄8" arbor insert.

Important Changes to Assembly

The new guard spreader and riving knife have size requirements for aftermarket blades that must be met. These instructions are provided in following pages in this update.

You can generally substitute the blade and blade guard installation/adjustment instructions in this update for those in the original manual.
