ELEVATION LOCK

When correctly adjusted, the elevation mechanism is locked

securely when the ELEVATION LOCK KNOB is approx. one inch from the front of the saw.

After extended use, the ELEVATION LOCK SCREW and NUT may wear, which will cause the lock to slip.

1.Tilt blade to 45 °.

2.Remove retaining screw, using a 3/8 in. wrench.

3.Move LOCK WRENCH in the direction of the arrow (this will tighten the LOCK NUT) only enough to replace the retaining screw in the next hole.

4.If retaining screw is in last hole as shown, lift LOCK

WRENCH off of LOCK NUT and reposition it by rotating it CLOCKWISE.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, TURN SWITCH "OFF" AND REMOVE PLUG FROM POWER SOURCE

OUTLET BEFORE MAINTAINING OR LUBRICATING YOUR SAW.

Do not allow sawdust to accumulate inside the saw.

Frequently blow out any dust that may accumulate inside the saw cabinet and the motor.

Frequently clean your cutting tools with Craftsman Gum and Pitch Remover.

A coat of automobile-typewax applied to the table will help to keep the surface clean and allow workpieces to slide more freely. Treat unplated and unpainted steel parts and surfaceswith Sears "Stop Rust."

If the power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.

above top of spreader.

 

 

3.
