2 ELEVATIONHANDWHEEL... elevates or

lowers the blade, Turn clockwise to elevate..

counterclockwise to lower.

NOTE: Any time sawblade has been elevated to 2-5/8 inches or higher above the table it will

be necessary to lower the blade by turning the elevation handwheel 5 turnscounterclockwise

before tilting to bevel.

3TiLT HANDWHEEL... tilts the blade for bevel

cutting. Turn clockwise to tilt toward left counterclockwise to tilt toward vertical.

When the blade is tilted to the LEFT as far as it

will go, it should be at 45 ° to the table and the bevel indicator should point 45 °,

NOTE: There are LIMIT STOPS on the saw which prevent the blade from tilting beyond 45 ° to the LEFT and 90° to the RIGHT. (See

"Adjustments"

section

"Blade

Tilt, or

Squareness of Blade to Table").

4 TILT LOCK HANDLE... locks the blade in the

desired tilt position. To loosen turn counterclockwise. Push handle in and turn itto another position if necessary in order to tighten or loosen.

!MPORTA.NT: Be sure handle Is hanging in the DOWN position before tilting blade. If it Is

pointing to the 1 o'clockposition it may jam on underside of the table and bend the locking bolt,

5RIP FENCE... is locked in place by tightening the lock knob. To move the fence, loosen the

knob and grasp the fencewith one hand at the fro nt.

Holes are provided in the rip fence for attaching a wood facing when using the dado head, or molding head.

Select a piece of smooth straight wood approx. 3/4" thick, at least as long as the rip fence, and at least 7-1/2" wide (high)to permitclamping of featherboards.

Attach it to the fence with three Round Head #10 Wood Screws 2 in. long. To remove the

facing, loosen the screws, slide the facing forward and pull the screws through the round

holes.

If you are making a rip type cut in material thinner than 3/16 in. while the fence is

positioned over the depressed area of table extension, the facing should be attached to the

fence so thatthe bottom edge touches the top surface of the extension. In this case, the facing must be shorter than the fence. This will prevent thin material from sliding under the rip fence.

8MITER GAUGE.. head is locked in position for crosscutting or mitering by tightening the lock knob. ALWAYS LOCK IT SECURELY WHEN IN USE.

There are slots for the stcp pin at the 45 deg tee

right and left positions for conveniently setting the Miter Gauge to cut miters,

NOTE: The slots for the stop pin and the

graduations are manufactured to very close tolerances which provide accuracy for average woodworking. In some cases where extreme accuracy is required, when making angle cuts, for example, make a trial cut and then recheck it.

If necessary, the miter gauge head can then be swiveled slightly to compensate and then locked.

Slots are provided in the miter gauge for attaching an AUXILIARY FACING to make it easier to cut long pieces. Be positive facing does not interfere with the proper operation of the sawblade guard.

Select a suitable piece of smooth straight wood . . ari]l two holes and attach it with

screws.

NOTE: When bevel crosscutting, attach facing so that it extends to the right of the miter gauge and use the miter gauge in the groove to the right of the blade.

To remove the guard for special operations, loosen the wing nuts and slide the guard off of the rod. DO NOT DISTURB THE SETTING OF

THE ROD.

When rep acing the guard, make sure the PIN in the rod engages with the NOTCH n the
