GENERAL MAINTENANCE
,_ WARNING: When servicing, use only identical
Craftsman replacement parts. Use of any other
part may create a hazard or cause product
damage.
,_ WARNING: To prevent accidental starting that
could cause possible serious personal injury,
turn off the saw, remove the switch key, and
unplug the saw before working on the table saw.
Remove sawdust from the rails, top surface, and
inside of saw frequently.
Clean plastic parts with a soft damp cloth. Do not
use any strong solvents.
,_ WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids,
gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating
oils, etc. contact plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy
plastic.
Periodically clean the table, rails, and rip fence with
gum and pitch remover. Do not allow pitch to
accumulate on the saw.
Apply a thin coat of paste wax to the table top so
the wood slides easily while cutting.
Regularly check all nuts, bolts, screws, and belts
for tightness and condition. Make sure the throat
plate is in good condition.
MOTOR / ELECTRICAL
Frequently vacuum or blow out any sawdust from
the motor.
,_ WARNING: If the power cord is worn, cut, or
damaged in any way, have it replaced immedi-
ately by a qualified service technician at a Sears
store or repair center. Failure to do so could
result in serious personal injury.
,_ WARNING: To avoid fire or electrocution,
reassemble electric parts with only identical
Craftsman replacement parts. Reassemble
exactly as originally assembled.
