CARRIAGE- Slidesalongtrackunderarmand supportsyoke.Containedtwocarriagecovers,one oneachsideofthearm.See Figure 9C.

CARRIAGE LOCK KNOB - Controls whether the cardage is locked or can travel. Located on the left side of the arm on the carriage cover. See Figure 9C.

COLUMN - Upright housing at the beck of the saw, consisting of a column support and a column tube. The column tube can be raised or lowered with the

elevating handwheel at the front of the saw. See

Figures 9A and 9B.

CONTROL CUT DEVICE - Limitscarriage speed to prevent climb, using a cable from the carriage to the column. Has a separate motor on left side, which is activated by the switch trigger in the handle. The cable returns the carriage to the column when the motor is not activated. Speed is adjusted with a thumbwheel on the handle. It runs on a separate 120V AC single voltage circuit. See Figure 9C.

_1, WARNING: When connecting only one of the cords, squeeze the switchtrigger in the handle. If the main motor cord alone is connected, the

switchtrigger in the handle will not operate the controlout device. The carriage cannot be advanced without power to the control cut device.

DUAL VOLTAGE - If needed, your main power source may be rewired by a qualified electricianto providea 240V AC circuit. See the Electrical section. DUST GUIDE - Directs sawdust, created from the cut being made, in the directionyou set. Located at the rear of the upper blade guard. See Figure 9D. ELEVATING HANDWI-IEEL- The handwbeel below the worktable (in front) that changes the height of the arm and the blade. See Figure 9C.

FENCE - Removable guide for work, which extends across width of table. See Figure 9C.

FRONT TABLE - Fixed portion of the worktable that supportsthe work. See Figure 9C.

HANDLE - Used to pull the yoke assembly. Mounted on the yoke to the right of the blade. See Figure 9C.

HOLD DOWN - A metal guard to control workpiece climb during rip cuts. When blade parallels arm, hold down is over the back of the blade. See Figure 9D. HOLD DOWN KNOB - Controls placement of the hold down and locks it in place. See Figure 9D.

MITER SCALE - Shows the miter angle setting of the arm. See Figure 9B.
