STEP 4. Clean the table top.
Before proceeding with the assembly of your saw, it is recommended that you clean the table-
top to remove the rust preventive coating. Clean the top with mineral spirits or denatured alco-
hol.
STEP 5. Handwheel assembly (Figures 4,5)
Bevel Adjustment Wheel (Right side of saw) Attach the sleeve (part K packed in styro-
foam) to the shaft that extends from the side of the table saw as shown in Figure 4. Align
the flat portion on the inside of the handwheel (part J) with the flat portion on the shaft.
Thread on the handwheel lock knob (part L) but do not tighten at this time. NOTE: Lock -
knobs are for locking height and bevel settings once they are established.
STEP 6. Attach the right front rail (long section) to tabletop (Figure 6)
Insert two of the square head bolts from the front and rear rail hardware bag
shown to the left, into the channel of the front rail as shown in Figure 6. Align the
two bolts with the two holes on the right side of the tabletop. Push the bolts
through the holes and loosely attach a lockwasher and hex nut onto the bolts.
Slide the front rail to the right far enough to expose the two holes on the left side
of the tabletop.
STEP 7. Attach the left front rail to tabletop (Figures 7,8)
Insert two of the square head bolts into the channel of the left front rail as shown in Figure
7. Align the two bolts with the two holes on the left side of the tabletop. Push the bolts
through the holes and loosely attach a lockwasher and hex nut onto the bolts. Slide both
sections of the front rails together and insert the black coupler on the left rail into the right
rail as shown in Figure 8. At this time, move the front rail assembly so that the section
where the two rails meet is approximately in line with the saw blade.
