5.5 Installation
Before beginning assembly, take note of the
following precautions and suggestions.
The machine is bolted to the pallet. Before
attempting any of the assembly procedures,
remove all of the loose parts and hardware from
the pallet.
----- FLOOR: This tool distributes a large amount of
weight over a small area. Make certain that the
floor is capable of supporting both the weight of the
machine and the operator. The floor should also be
a level surface. If the unit wobbles or rocks once in
place, be sure to eliminate the wobble by using
shims.
-----WORKING CLEARANCES: Take into
consideration the size of the material to be
processed. Make sure that you allow enough
space for you to operate the machine freely.
-----OUTLET PLACEMENT: Outlets should be
located close enough to the machine so that the
power cord or extension cord is not in an area
where it would cause a tripping hazard. Be sure to
observe all electrical codes if installing new circuits
and/or outlets.
DO NOT assemble the machine until you are
certain that the machine is not plugged in and
the power switch is in the OFF position.
DO NOT connect the machine to the power
source until the machine is completely
assembled and you read and understand the
entire User Manual.
5.5.1 Remove the accessories
Remove all attachments fixed to the pallet.
Remove all accessories or packages contained in
the cabinet.
5.5.2 Motor cover install
Install the motor cover by inserting the door pins
into the hinge sockets on the cabinet as shown in
Fig. 5;
Fig. 5
5.5.3 Hand wheel handle installation
Install the handle into the Blade Tilt hand wheel as
shown in Fig.6.
Fig. 6
5.5.4 Extension tables installation
Refer to Fig. 7.
1. Remove the screws from the sides of the main
table;
2. Inspect the extension tables and main table
mating surfaces for burrs or foreign materials that
may inhibit assembly;
3. The mating edges of the tables and the table
must be clean, smooth, and flat, use a wire brush
or sand paper if necessary to clean up the edges,
this step will ensure that the tables mount properly
to the main this step will ensure that the tables are
mounted properly to the main table;
4. Attach the tables to the main table with the
screws removed in step 1;
5. Place the straightedge across the extension
tables and main table to make sure that the table
surface is flat;
If the outside end of the extension tables tilts down
or up, use a strip of masking tape to shim the
extensiontableupordown;
Fig. 7

11
5.5.5 Install the rail & fence
1. Install the rear rail , front rail, tube, (extension
table) as breakdown, Before tightening the
fasteners, check to make sure the top edge of the
rear rail is flush with the lowest edge of both
T-slots,so the miter gauge will slide smoothly when
installed later, as shown in Fig.8.
2. Place the fence on the rails on the right hand
side of the blade as shown in Fig.9.
Fig. 8
Fig. 9
Make sure the cam foot contacts the cam on
the fence lock handle before you place the
fence on the rail, otherwise the fence will not
lock into the rail tube, refer to Fig. 9.
3. Checking fence parallelism
Refer to Fig. 10.
----Slide the fence along the rail , if it drags across
the table, then adjust the foot at the rear of the
fence to raise the fence off of the table just enough,
so that the gap between the fence, and the table is
even from front to back;
----Slide the fence up, against the right hand edge
of the miter slot, and lock it in place, examine how
the fence lines up with the miter slot;
Fig. 10
It's permissible for the back of the fence to
pivot outward not more than 1/64" from being
parallel to the blade. This creates a slightly
larger opening between the fence and the blade,
at the rear of the blade, to reduce the risk of
workpiece binding or burning as it is fed
through the cut. Many woodworkers
intentionally set up their fence in this manner.
Keep this in mind before adjusting your fence.
4. Install the fence scale
Refer to Fig. 11.
Fig. 11
Slide the fence up against the saw blade, and lock
it in place; Place the front rail tape scale on the

12
fence tube, make sure it is parallel with the tube,
and the “0” end is directly under the red line on the
pointer window as shown; lightly mark the “0”
location on the tube with a pencil, then remove the
fence; peel the tape and carefully align the “0” mark
on the scale with the pencil mark you made;
If you make a mistake, loosen the screws on the
point window, slide the fence against the blade,
adjust the pointer window, so the red line on the
window is over the “0” mark on the tape, then
secure the screws;
5.5.6 Install the switch

6. Adjustment
Before operation, the machine should be
carefully adjusted for the best performance.
Please make adjustment as followings:
6.1 Blade Elevation and Tilting Mechanism
To raise or lower the blade, loosen the lock knob
(C) As shown in Fig. 20 and turn the elevation
hand wheel (D). When the desired height is
obtained, retighten the lock knob. The blade should
be raised 1/8” to 1/4” above the top surface of the
material being cut with hollow ground blades. The
blade should be raised to the maximum to provide
chip clearance. To tilt the saw blade, loosen the
lock knob (B) and turn the hand wheel (A). When
desired angle is obtained, retighten the lock knob.
Refer to Fig. 20.
Fig. 20
6.2 Adjusting the Rip Fence
1. The rip fence must be perfectly aligned with the
table T-slot. To verify this, align the edge of the rip
fence with the table T-slot and lower the locking
lever (A) Fig. 21 to lock in into place. Check to see
if the edge of the rip fence and the table T-slot are
parallel. If they are not parallel, adjust the set
screws (H), as shown in Fig. 22, in or out. Verify
the adjustment, repeat if necessary.
2. The lock lever pressure can be adjusted by
loosening the front lock nuts (B) as shown in Fig.
21 and adjusting the set screws (C) the same
amount, make sure the fence remains parallel with
the table T-slot. Retighten the lock nuts.
3. To set the fence perpendicular to the table, place
a square on the table and against the side of the
fence, loosen the top lock nuts (D) and adjust the
setscrews (E) until the fence is perpendicular.
Retighten the lock nuts.
4. The pointer window (F) as shown in Fig. 21,can
be adjusted if needed by loosening the pan head
screws(G), repositioning the window and
retightening the pan head screws.

6.3 Aligning the Table T-slot Parallel with
the Blade
1. The table T-slot must be aligned parallel with the
blade. Using a combination square measure the
distance from the back edge of the blade to the
table T-slot. Pivot blade forward 180º and
re-measure the distance using the exact same
point on the blade. The difference between both
measurements must be less than 0.2mm. Refer to
Fig. 23.
2. If an adjustment is necessary, loosen the
screws identified in Fig. 24 which mount the table
to the cabinet. Make the needed adjustment until
both measurements are equal or less than 0.2 mm.
and retighten the screws.

6.4 Adjusting 45°and 90°Positive Stops
The blade tilting mechanism of your saw is
equipped with a positive stop at 45 and 90 degrees.
To check and adjust these positive stops, proceed
as follows:
1. Raise the saw blade to its maximum height.
2. Set the blade at 90 degrees to the table by
turning the blade tilting hand wheel
counterclockwise as far as it will go.
3. Place a square on the table and check to see if
the blade is at a perfect 90 degree angle to the
table.
4. If the blade is not at 90 degrees loosen lock nut
(A) As Fig.25-1 and turn stop ring (B) in or out. The
stop ring (B) should stop against the front trunnion
bracket when the blade is at 90 degrees to the
table. Recheck and adjust further if necessary.
Retighten lock nut (A).
Fig. 25-1
5. If the 45 degree postive stop is not set properly,
turn the same hand wheel clockwise as far as it will
go and follow the same procedure using lock nut (C)
As Fig.25-2 and stop ring (D). The stop bolt (D)
should stop against the front trunnion bracket when
the blade is at 45 degrees to the table. Recheck
and adjust further if necessary. Retighten lock nut
(C).
Fig. 25-2

6.5 Aligning Blade Guard Splitter or
Riving Knife with Blade
The blade guard splitter and/or riving knife must be
aligned with the blade. If not properly aligned, the
splitter/riving knife will force the workpiece
sideways
during the cut, increasing the risk of kickback.
Place a straightedge against the blade and the
splitter or riving knife and check for parallelism. If
an adjustment is needed, the mounting position
can be adjusted into alignment with the blade using
the adjustment set screws (A) Refer to Fig. 26.
1. Disconnect the saw from the power source.
2. Remove the table insert.
3. Loosen the upper and lower cap screws (B),
then adjust the 4 set screws in or out until the
alignment is perfectly parallel.
4. Reinstall the table insert.

7.2 Safety Precautions before Operation
The operation of power tools involves a certain
amount of hazard for the operator. Before
attempting regular work, we recommend you get
the feel of the operation using scrap lumber to
check the settings. Read the entire instructions
before you start to cut the workpiece. Always pay
attention to safety precautions to avoid personal
injury.
7.3 Operation
Plain sawing includes ripping and crosscutting,
plus a few other standard operations of a
fundamental nature. The following methods feature
safety. As with all power tools there is a certain
amount of hazard involved with the operation and
use of the tool. Use the tool with caution and follow
safety precautions which will considerably lessen
the possibility of personal injury. If normal safety
precautions are overlooked or completely ignored,
personal injury to the operator can occur. It is good
practice to make trial cuts using scrap material
whensettingupyoursaw.
7.4 Crosscutting
Crosscutting requires the use of the miter gauge to
position and guide the work. Place the work
against the miter gauge and advance both the
miter gauge and work toward the saw blade. The
miter gauge may be used in either table slot,
however, most operators prefer the left groove for
average work. When bevel cutting (blade tilted),
use the table groove that does not cause
interference of your hand or miter gauge with the
saw blade guard.
Start the cut slowly and hold the work firmly against
the miter gauge and the table. One of the rules in
running a saw is that you never hang onto or touch
a free piece of work. Hold the supported piece, not
the free piece that is cut off. The feed in
crosscutting continues until the work is cut in two,
then the miter gauge and work are pulled back to
the starting point. Before pulling the work back, it is
good practice to give the work a little sideways shift
to move the work slightly away from the saw blade.
Never pick up any short length of free work from
the table while the saw is running. A smart operator
never touches a cut-off piece unless it is at least a
foot long. Never use the fence as a cut-off gauge
when crosscutting. Never use the miter gauge in
combination with the rip fence.
7.5 Ripping
Ripping is the operation of making a lengthwise cut
throughaboard.Theripfenceisusedtoposition
and guide the work. One edge of the work rides
against the rip fence while the flat side of the board
rests on the table. Since the work is pushed along
the fence, it must have a straight edge and make
solid contact with the table. The saw guard must be
used. The guard has anti-kickback fingers and a
splitter to prevent the saw kerf from closing.
Start the motor and advance the work holding it
down and against the fence. Never, stand in the
line of the saw cut when ripping. Hold the work with
both hands and push it along the fence and into the
saw blade. The work can then be fed through the
saw blade with one or two hands.
When this is done, the work will either stay on the
table, tilt up slightly and be caught by the rear end
of the guard or slide off the table to the floor.
Alternately, the feed can continue to the end of the
table, after which the work is lifted and brought
back along the outside edge of the fence. The
waste stock remains on the table and is not
touched with the hands until the saw is stopped
unless it is a large piece allowing safe removal.
