Model T10687 (Mfg. Since 10/12)
SECTION 4: OPERATIONS
The T10687 Track Saw is designed to be used
with wood and wood-based material. This tool
should not be used to cut ferrous metals (steel,
cast iron, etc.), glass, aluminum, plastics, ceram-
ics, tile, drywall, cementious backer board, carpet,
foam, or any type of food.
Severe lacerations, amputation, or death
can occur if blade changing/adjustment is
attempted while saw is connected to power.
Always unplug saw before changing or mak-
ing any adjustments to blade or riving knife,
or performing any maintenance to saw that
would require touching the blade.
Changing Blades
Using the Saw
Always use sharp blades and select the correct
blade for the material being cut. The resulting cut
will be cleaner and there will be less stress on
the machine. Always inspect saw blades closely
before installation, and never use saw blades with
bent or missing teeth, or that appear damaged
in any way. The T10687 comes with a 48-tooth
carbide-tipped blade that will effectively handle
most wood and wood-like materials.
Blade Requirements:
•
160mm diameter
• 20mm round arbor bore
Keep in mind that blade teeth should never be
thinner than the riving knife; otherwise the riving
knife could get stuck in the kerf.
Blade Selection
Even worn saw blades can be sharp. To
avoid injury, wear protective gloves when
handling circular blades.
When changing saw blades, always keep saw in
an upright position. Position saw along the edge
of a workbench or table, so that the blade can be
lowered safely down below the surface edge of
the workspace while the saw remains upright.
To change the blade:
1.
DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!
2. Engage the plunge release and lower the
blade down far enough to expose the arbor
bolt. Push the blade lock (see Figure 9) and
rotate the arbor bolt with a 5mm hex wrench
until the blade locks in place.
