Raising, Lowering, and Tilting the Saw Blade
WARNING! Avoid serious injury. Do not raise, lower, or tilt the Saw Blade while the
machine is running! Always turn the Table Saw Off before adjusting the Saw Blade.
1. To raise or lower the Saw Blade, loosen the Hand Wheel Lock Knob (143), then turn
the Saw Blade Height Hand Wheel (144) on the front of the Table Saw. Retighten Lock
Knob.
Note: On through cuts, the Saw Blade should be adjusted to 1/8” to 1/4” above the top surface
of the material to be cut.
2. To tilt the Saw Blade from 90 down to 30 degrees, loosen the Hand Wheel Lock Knob
(143), then turn the Tilt Hand Wheel (144) on the side of the Table Saw to the desired
angle. The angle can be read on the Tilt Scale on the front of the Table Saw. Retighten
Lock Knob.
Making a Rip Cut
1. Loosen the Fence Lock Knob (56) and slide the Fence to the desired distance from
the Saw Blade. Use the scale on the Rail Guide to measure. Retighten Fence Lock
Knob (56).
When cutting a thin width off a plank, the Fence should be positioned so that the
thicker part of the plank is between the Fence and the Saw Blade. And, the thinner
width is to the left of the Saw Blade. This lowers the chance of binding and kickback.
Longer stock needs to have external support at the same height as the Table.
