ADJUSTING THE LOWER BLADE

GUARD

DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM

POWER SOURCE.

This machine incorporates a blade guard (A) Fig. 29B to cover the rear section of the blade. After an extended period of use, the movable lower blade guard may not operate smoothly when the cuttinghead is lowered. This can be corrected by adjusting nut (B) until the lower blade guard moves freely.

Overtightening the nut could impair guard movement.

NOTE: This unit has been designed with an articulating rear guard. Before contacting the workpiece, the rear guard will rotate upward to expose more of the blade as the cuttinghead is lowered.

DO NOT REMOVE ANY OF THE BLADE GUARDS.

Make sure that all guards are in place and functioning properly before operating the saw. Make sure that the fences are clear of the guard and blade before operating the saw.

MACHINE USE

TYPICAL OPERATIONS AND HELPFUL HINTS

Cuttinghead must return quickly to the full up position. Sluggish or incomplete return of the cuttinghead will effect lower guard operation possibly resulting in personal injury.

1.Before cutting, make certain that the cutting arm and table are at their correct settings and firmly locked in place.

2.Place the workpiece on the table and hold or clamp it firmly against the fence. The optional clamp (A) Fig. 30 can also be used on the right side of the machine.

3. If the position or size of the workpiece causes your hand to be in the “Hazard Zone”, use the work clamp to secure the workpiece. Keep your hands out of the “Hazard Zone”.

4.For best results, cut at a slow, even cutting rate.

5.Never attempt freehand cutting (wood that is not held firmly against the fence and table).

AUXILIARY WOOD FENCE

When performing multiple or repetitive operations that result in small cut-off pieces (one inch or less), the saw blade can catch the cut-off pieces and project them out of the machine or into the blade guard and housing, causing damage or injury. To limit the risk, mount an auxiliary wood fence on your saw (Fig. 31).

Holes are provided in the fence to attach an auxiliary fence (A) Fig. 31. This auxiliary fence is constructed of straight wood approximately 1/2" thick by 3" high by 20" long.

NOTE: The auxiliary fence (A) is used ONLY with the saw blade in the 0° bevel position (90° to the table). When you bevel cut (blade tilted), remove the auxiliary fence.
