Permanently connected machines:
If the machine is intended to be permanently connected, all
wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and conform to the
National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances.
*THREE PHASE OPERATION: Three phase machines are
not supplied with a power cord and must be permanently
connected to a building’s electrical system. Extension cords
cannot be used with a three phase machine.
*LVC MAGNETIC MOTOR CONTROL: If you purchased
a machine that has a Low Voltage Magnetic Motor Control
System, refer to its instruction manual for installation
guidance.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which
has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss
of power and overheating. Fig. D-1 shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

FOREWORD
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
NOTICE: The photo on the manual cover illustrates the current production model. All other illustrations contained in the manual are
representative only and may not depict the actual labeling or accessories included. These are intended to illustrate technique only.
The Delta Unisaw is a 10" left-tilting arbor saw. The Delta Unisaw features set the standard in the table saw industry.
A rip fence assembly is not packaged with the product. You MUST install and use a rip fence system for ripping
operations.
UNPACKING AND CLEANING
Carefully unpack the machine and all loose items from the shipping container(s). Remove the protective coating from all unpainted
surfaces. This coating may be removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene (do not use acetone, gasoline or lacquer thinner for this
purpose). After cleaning, cover the unpainted surfaces with a good quality household floor paste wax.
Remove the styrofoam packing and any other loose items from the inside of the saw cabinet. To take off the motor cover,
use a hex wrench to remove the 1/4 - 20 x 5/8" hex-head screw (B) Fig. 1. Push the motor cover to one side firmly to depress the clips
and pull the motor cover off. See the section “MOTOR COVER”.
IMPORTANT: The saw is shipped with the saw arbor in the 45° position.
NOTE: You must first attach the handwheel to the saw (see the section “BLADE TILTING HANDWHEEL”), then loosen the locking
knob on the handwheel. Turn the handwheel until the saw arbor is in the 90° position. Remove the styrofoam packing from inside the
saw cabinet. Tighten the locking knob.
