Accessories Safety
1. Use only accessories recommended for
radial saws. Use of any other accessory or
attachment might increase the risk of injury
to you or others.
2. Read and follow instructions that come
with accessory.
3. Do not install accessories on both ends of
arbor shaft at same time.
4. Do not use twist drill bits longer than 7"
because they can bend and break.
5. Use a spade type drill 1" or smaller in
diameter for drilling only wood or plastic.
6. Do not use reduced shank drills.
7. Remove blade wrenches before turning
saw on.
DANGER
Grinding wheels, abrasive or cut off
wheels, or wire wheels can break
explosively and throw pieces. You can
be blinded or receive a life threatening
puncture wound. Do not use grind
wheels, abrasive or cut off wheels, or
wire wheels.
WARNING
When using accessory shaft, exposed
arbor shaft can pull in clothing, hair or
jewelry as it rotates. Broken bones and
severe cuts could occur.
Follow personal safety instructions.
Locate arbor shaft under radial arm:
lock blade carriage in out-rip position,
then bevel motor to -90°.
Information for Dado
1. Put inside loose collar on arbor shaft first,
then install dado. Tighten blade nut directly
against outside surface of dado.
2. Saw arbor is designed for dado up to 13/16"
wide. Use of wider dado could cause dado and
blade nut to spin off. To make larger than 13/16"
wide cut, take several passes with dado.
3. To avoid excessive load on motor when
making a 13/16" wide cut, limit depth of cut
to 1/8" in one pass.
Information for Edging
Edging is the use of a dado or molding head
in the horizontal position. Edging requires
the use of a molding head guard (see
Accessories List)
1. Use molding head guard for edging with
molding head and dado blade. Follow
instructions that come with guard. Do not
edge with a blade.
DANGER
Edging without a guard can bring
hands and fingers too close to blade.
Hands, fingers and arm could be cut
off. Buy, install, and follow instructions
for molding head guard.
WARNING
Blade cannot be guarded in horizontal
position. Edge with guarded molding
head or dado. Do not edge with blade.
2. Whenever possible, edge with arm locked
at indexed 0° miter, so blade carriage is
more likely to lock firmly.
3. Before edging, with saw unplugged and
yellow key out, turn cutting tool by hand to
make sure it does not strike guard or any
other part of saw.
