3. To adjust the angle of the Saw Blade (3), unlock the Locking Knob (167) by turning
it counterclockwise. Push the Wheel inward to engage the gear, then turn it until
the red pointer indicates the desired angle. Then, turn the Locking Knob clockwise
to lock the Saw Blade in position. (See Figure M, previous page.)
Note that the socket head screws in the table top
(Figure N) are used to adjust the 0 degree and
45 degree positive stops.
To Adjust The Width Of A Cut:
1. The width of a cut is achieved by moving the Fence
Assembly (75) to the right or left. (See Figure M.)
2. The Table Saw features a Graduation Scale on the front of the unit. The Scale’s
measurements are in both inches and metric increments. (See Figure M.)
3. To position the Fence Assembly (75) for the desired width of a cut, unlock the Fence
Handle (80) by raising it upward. (See Figure M.)
4. Place the workpiece on the Table Saw against the Fence Assembly (75). Next, slide
the workpiece, and the Fence Assembly, to the right or left until the left side of the
Ruler Support (86) indicates on the Graduation Scale the desired width to be cut.
Then, lock the Fence Assembly in place by lowering the Fence Handle (80). (See
Figure M.)
Proper Placement Of Hands During The Cutting Process:
WARNING: Review all warnings, especially the Specific Safety Rules found
on page 8, before performing any cutting procedure.
1. WARNING! Always keep all guards in place and in working order.
2. Use the Push Stick (37) or an Auxiliary Handle (not included) only when ripping
widths of 2” to 6”. Use a Push Block (not included) when ripping widths under
2”. Refer to Appendix B on page 22 for instructions on how to make and use
a Push Block.
3. When ripping, always use the Fence Assembly (75). This improves the accuracy
of the cut, and reduces the chance for Saw Blade binding.
4. Never pass hands directly over the Saw Blade (3) when cutting the workpiece.
Always push the workpiece into the Saw Blade, using the Push Stick (37).
(See Figure O, next page.)
5. At the start of the cut, the left hand holds the workpiece firmly on the Table (105)
and against the Fence Assembly (75), The right hand, with the aid of the Push Stick
(37), pushes the workpiece toward the turning Saw Blade (3). (See Figure O.)
6. After the cut is under way the right hand, with the aid of the Push Stick (37),
continues pushing the workpiece forward. Just before the cut is near completion
