Assembly

Introduction

In order to get the most enjoyment out of your radial saw it is important that the machine be prop- erly assembled, adjusted, and aligned. This procedure, although not difficult, takes time; perhaps eight hours or longer for the inexperienced user. However, after this initial set-up a weekly tune-up can be completed in approximately ten minutes by checking the alignment and only adjusting those settings which are incorrect.

Identify Parts

The following parts are included:

Note: Before beginning assembly, check that all parts are included If you are missing any part, do not assemble the saw. Contact 1-800-4-RIDGIDto get the missing part. Sometimes small parts can get lost in packaging material. Do not throw away any packag- ing until saw is put together. Check packaging for missing parts before contacting RIDGID. A complete parts list (Repair Parts) is at the end of the manual. Use the list to identify the number of the missing part.
