GENERAL SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifications provided with
this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-
operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify
the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with
earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
Avoidbodycontactwith earthedorgrounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body
is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric
shock.
Donot abuse thecord.Never use thecordfor carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk
of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence
ofdrugs, alcohol ormedication. A momentof inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask,
non-skidsafety shoes,hardhat, orhearing protectionused
for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
Dressproperly. Donotwear looseclothingor jewellery.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools
allowyou tobecome complacentand ignoretoolsafety
principles.A carelessaction cancause severeinjurywithin
a fraction of a second.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the
power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
Keepcutting toolssharp andclean.Properlymaintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
personusing onlyidentical replacement parts.This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
BLADE GUARD, RIVING KNIFE AND ANTI-
KICKBACK PAWLS
Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working
order and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose,
damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be repaired
or replaced.
Always use saw blade guard, riving knife and anti-
kickback pawls for every through-cutting operation.
For through-cutting operations where the saw blade cuts
completely through the thickness of the workpiece, the
guard and other safety devices help reduce the risk of
injury.
Immediately reattach the guarding system after
completing an operation (such as rabbeting, dadoing
orresawingcuts) whichrequiresremovalofthe guard,
riving knife and/or anti-kickback pawls. The guard,
riving knife, and anti-kickback pawls help to reduce the
risk of injury.
Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard,
riving knife or the workpiece before the switch is
turned on. Inadvertent contact of these items with the
saw blade could cause a hazardous condition.
Adjust the riving knife as described in the operator’s
manual.Incorrectspacing, positioningand alignment can
make the riving knife ineffective in reducing the likelihood
of kickback.
For the riving knife and anti-kickback pawls to work,
they must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving
knifeand anti-kickback pawlsare ineffective whencutting
workpiecesthat aretooshort to be engaged withthe riving
knife and anti-kickback pawls. Under these conditions
a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and
anti-kickback pawls.
Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife.
For the riving knife to function properly, the saw blade
diameter must match the appropriate riving knife and the
body of the saw blade must be thinner than the thickness
of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw blade
must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.
CUTTING PROCEDURES
DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands in the
vicinity or in line with the saw blade. A moment of
inattention or a slip could direct your hand towards the
saw blade and result in serious personal injury.
Feed the workpiece into the saw blade against the
direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece in the same
direction that the saw blade is rotating above the table
may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled
into the saw blade.
Neveruse the mitergauge tofeed the workpiecewhen
ripping and do not use the rip fence as a length stop
when cross cutting with the miter gauge. Guiding the
workpiece with the rip fence and the miter gauge at the
same time increases the likelihood of saw blade binding
and kickback.
When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding
force between the fence and the saw blade. Use a
push stick when the distance between the fence and
the saw blade is less than 150 mm, and use a push
block when this distance is less than 50 mm. “Work
helping” devices will keep your hand at a safe distance
from the saw blade.
Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer
or constructed in accordance with the instructions.
This push stick provides sufficient distance of the hand
from the saw blade.

5 - English
TABLE SAW SAFETY RULES
Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A damaged
push stick may break causing your hand to slip into the
saw blade.
Do not perform any operation “freehand”. Always
use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to position
and guide the workpiece. “Freehand” means using
your hands to support or guide the workpiece, in lieu
of a rip fence or miter gauge. Freehand sawing leads to
misalignment, binding and kickback.
Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade.
Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental contact
with the moving saw blade.
Provideauxiliaryworkpiece support tothe rearand/or
sidesof the sawtable forlong and/or wideworkpieces
to keep them level. A long and/or wide workpiece has
a tendency to pivot on the table’s edge, causing loss of
control, saw blade binding and kickback.
Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend or
twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool
off immediately, unplug the tool then clear the jam.
Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause
kickback or stall the motor.
Donot removepieces ofcut-off materialwhile thesaw
is running. The material may become trapped between
the fence or inside the saw blade guard and the saw
blade pulling your fingers into the saw blade. Turn the saw
off and wait until the saw blade stops before removing
material.
Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top
when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm thick. A thin
workpiece may wedge under the rip fence and create a
kickback.
KICKBACK
Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece due to a
pinched, jammed saw blade or misaligned line of cut in the
workpiece with respect to the saw blade or when a part of
the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip
fence or other fixed object.
Most frequently during kickback, the workpiece is lifted from
the table by the rear portion of the saw blade and is propelled
towards the operator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below.
Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always
position your body on the same side of the saw blade
as the fence. Kickback may propel the workpiece at high
velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with
the saw blade.
Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or
to support the workpiece. Accidental contact with the
saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers
into the saw blade.
Never hold and press the workpiece that is being
cut off against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the
workpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create
a binding condition and kickback.
Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A
misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the
saw blade and create kickback.
Usea featherboardtoguide the workpieceagainstthe
table and fence when making non-through cuts such
as rabbeting, dadoing orresawing cuts. Afeatherboard
helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.
Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas
of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
Support large panels to minimize the risk of saw blade
pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under
their own weight. Support(s) must be placed under all
portions of the panel overhanging the table top.
Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is
twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight
edge to guide it with a miter gauge or along the fence.
A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is unstable
and causes misalignment of the kerf with the saw blade,
binding and kickback.
Nevercut morethanone workpiece,stacked vertically
or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or more
pieces and cause kickback.
When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the
workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that
the saw teeth are not engaged in the material. If the
saw blade binds, it may lift up the workpiece and cause
kickback when the saw is restarted.
Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient
set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with
cracked or broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw
blades minimise binding, stalling and kickback.
TABLE SAW OPERATION
Turn off the table saw and disconnect the power
cord when removing the throat plate, changing the
saw blade or making adjustments to the riving knife,
anti-kickback pawls or blade guard, and when the
machine is left unattended. Precautionary measures
will avoid accidents.
Never leave the table saw running unattended. Turn it
off and don’t leave the tool until it comes to a complete
stop. An unattended running saw is an uncontrolled
hazard.
Locate the table saw in a well-lit and level area where
you can maintain good footing and balance. It should
be installed in an area that provides enough room to
easily handle the size of your workpiece. Cramped,
dark areas, and uneven slippery floors invite accidents.

wire brushes, or abrasive wheels on a table saw.
Improper saw blade installation or use of accessories
not recommended may cause serious injury.
Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged must
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center to avoid risk of personal injury.
Never leave tool running unattended. Turn the power
off. Don’t leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
cutting operation is dusty.
Protect your hearing. Wear hearing protection during
extended periods of operation.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric
shock.
Always keep the blade guard and riving knife (splitter)
in place and in working order.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Keep hands away
from blades. Do not reach underneath work or around or

EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding
plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.
When using a power tool at a considerable distance from
the power source, use an extension cord heavy enough
to carry the current that the tool will draw. An undersized
extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in
a loss of power and causing the motor to overheat. Use the
chart provided below to determine the minimum wire size
required in an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords
listed by Underwriter's Laboratories (UL) should be used.

**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit.
NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
When working with the tool outdoors, use an extension cord
that is designed for outside use. This is indicated by the
letters “W-A” or “W” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working
area. Position the cord so that it will not get
caught on lumber, tools or other obstructions
while you are working with a power tool. Failure
to do so can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If
damaged replace immediately. Never use
product with a damaged cord since touching
the damaged area could cause electrical shock
resulting in serious injury.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product is powered by a precision built electric motor.
It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 V, AC
only (normal household current), 60 Hz. Do not operate
this product on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage
drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat.
If the saw does not operate when plugged into an outlet,
double check the power supply.
SPEED AND WIRING
The no-load speed of this tool is approximately 3,450 rpm.
This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or
with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as
important as the motor’s horsepower rating. A line intended
only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire
that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for
a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool
may not be able to support two or three tools.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the grounding plug can
result in a risk of electric shock. When repair
or replacement of the cord is required, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The wire with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has
a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in figure 1.
Only connect the product to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this
product.

KNOW YOUR TABLE SAW
See Figure 5.
The safe use of this product requires an understanding of
the information on the tool and in this operator’s manual as
well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting. Before
use of this product, familiarize yourself with all operating
features and safety rules.
ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS - Kickback is a hazard in which
the workpiece is thrown back toward the operator. The teeth
on the removable anti-kickback pawls point away from the
workpiece. If the workpiece should be pulled back toward
the operator, the teeth dig into the wood to help prevent or
reduce the possibility of kickback.
BEVEL ADJUSTING HANDWHEEL/BEVEL LOCK KNOB -
The bevel adjusting handwheel, located on the side of the
cabinet, is used to adjust the bevel angle of the blade.The
bevel lock knob locks the angle setting of the blade.
BEVEL SCALE - The easy-to-read scale on the front of the
cabinet shows the exact blade angle.
BLADE - For maximum performance, it is recommended
that you use the 10 in. carbide tipped combination blade
provided with your saw. The blade is raised and lowered with
the height adjusting handwheel. Bevel angles are locked with
the bevel lock knob. Additional blade styles of the same high
quality are available for specific operations such as ripping.
Your local dealer can provide you with complete information.
Blade kerf width must be within the limits stamped on the
riving knife.
WARNING:
Do not use blades rated less than the speed of
this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result
in personal injury.
BLADE GUARD - Always keep the removable blade guard
down over the saw blade for through-sawing cuts.
HEIGHT ADJUSTING HANDWHEEL/ HEIGHT LOCK
KNOB - The height adusting handwheel, located on the
front of the cabinet, is used to lower and raise the blade for
height adjustments or blade replacement. The height lock
knob locks the height setting of the blade.
MITER GAUGE - The miter gauge aligns the workpiece for
a cross cut. The easy-to-read indicator shows the exact
angle for a miter cut, with adjustable stops at 90° and 45°.
MITER GAUGE GROOVES- The miter gauge rides in the
grooves on the saw table.
RIP FENCE - A sturdy metal fence guides the workpiece and
is secured with the locking handle. Grooves run along the
top and sides of the rip fence for use with optional clamps
and accessories.
RIVING KNIFE - A removable metal piece of the blade
guard assembly, slightly thinner than the saw blade, which
helps keep the kerf open and prevent kickback. When in the
through sawing, or “up” position, it is higher than the saw
blade. When in the non-through sawing, or “down” position,
it is below the saw blade teeth.
RIP SCALE - Located on the front rail, the easy-to-read rip
scale provides precise measurements for rip cuts.
SWITCH ASSEMBLY - This saw has an easy access switch
assembly located below the front rail. To lock the switch in
the OFF position, remove the switch key from the switch.
Place the key in a location that is inaccessible to children
and others not qualified to use the tool.
TABLE EXTENSION - Located on each side of the saw table,
the table extensions give the operator additional support
when cutting wide workpieces.

FEATURES
WARNING:
ALWAYS make sure your workpiece is not in
contact with the blade before operating the
switch to start the tool. Failure to heed this
warning could cause the workpiece to be kicked
back toward the operator and result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of accidental starting, always
make sure the switch is in the OFF ( O ) position
before plugging tool into the power source.
OPERATING COMPONENTS
The upper portion of the blade projects up through the table
and is surrounded by an insert called the throat plate. The
height of the blade is set with a handwheel on the front of the
cabinet. Detailed instructions are provided in the Operation
section of this manual for the basic cuts: cross cuts, miter
cuts, bevel cuts, and compound cuts.
The rip fence is used to position work for lengthwise cuts.
A scale on the front rail shows the distance between the rip
fence and the blade.
It is very important to use the blade guard assembly for
all through-sawing operations. The blade guard assembly
includes: riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and blade guard.
SWITCH ASSEMBLY
