This manual provides critical safety instructions on the proper setup,
operation, maintenance, and service of this machine/tool. Save this
document, refer to it often, and use it to instruct other operators.
Failure to read, understand and follow the instructions in this manual
may result in fire or serious personal injury—including amputation,
electrocution, or death.
The owner of this machine/tool is solely responsible for its safe use.
This responsibility includes but is not limited to proper installation in
a safe environment, personnel training and usage authorization,
proper inspection and maintenance, manual availability and compre-
hension, application of safety devices, cutting/sanding/grinding tool
integrity, and the usage of personal protective equipment.
The manufacturer will not be held liable for injury or property
damage from negligence, improper training, machine modifications or
misuse.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you
do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals:
Work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equip-
ment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.

Controls & Components
Refer to Figures 1–4 and the following descriptions to
become familiar with the basic controls of this machine.
A. START/STOP Switch: Starts and stops the motor. The
switch can be disabled for safety by inserting the
disabling pin or a padlock (not included) through the
START button.
Figure 1.Location of START/STOP switch.
A
B. Handwheel Locks: Lock blade height and angle
when tightened (one on each handwheel).
C. Blade Height Handwheel: Adjusts blade height from
0"–31⁄8".
D. Blade Tilt Handwheel: Adjusts angle of blade tilt
from 90°–45°.
E. Fence Lock Handle: Locks fence when pushed down,
unlocks fence when pulled up.
F. Fence: Guides workpiece as it moves into blade
and determines angle of cut. Fence face can be
positioned for standard cutting operations, or placed
in lower position for blade guard clearance during
narrow ripping operations.
G. Fence Lock Knobs: Secure fence when tightened;
allow fence to be repositioned along fence tube
when loosened.
H. Miter Fence: Provides greater workpiece support
than the miter gauge alone, especially for longer
workpieces.
I. Miter Gauge: Guides workpiece into blade at a set
angle along one of two miter slots in table.
J. Flip Stop: Used to perform repeatable cuts with the
miter fence and can be positioned anywhere along
miter fence.

SAFETY
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate injury.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in death or serious injury.
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about
proper operation of the equipment or a situation that may cause
damage to the machinery.
NOTICE
SAFETY
OWNER’S MANUAL.
Read and understand this
owner’s manual BEFORE using machine.
TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY.
Untrained operators
have a higher risk of being hurt or killed. Only
allow trained/supervised people to use this
machine. When machine is not being used,
disconnect power, remove switch keys, or
lock-out machine to prevent unauthorized
use—especially around children. Make
workshop kid proof!
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.
Do not use
machinery in areas that are wet, cluttered,
or have poor lighting. Operating machinery
in these areas greatly increases the risk of
accidents and injury.
MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED.
Full mental
alertness is required for safe operation of
machinery. Never operate under the influence
of drugs or alcohol, when tired, or when
distracted.
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. You can
be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live
electrical components or improperly grounded
machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow an
electrician or qualified service personnel to
do electrical installation or repair work, and
always disconnect power before accessing or
exposing electrical equipment.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. Always disconnect
machine from power supply BEFORE making
adjustments, changing tooling, or servicing
machine. This eliminates the risk of injury
from unintended startup or contact with live
electrical components.
EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved
safety glasses or a face shield when operating
or observing machinery to reduce the risk of
eye injury or blindness from flying particles.
Everyday eyeglasses are not approved safety
glasses.
Standard Machinery Safety Instructions
For Your Own Safety,
Read Manual Before Operating Machine
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions. This
manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of importance of the
safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that safety messages by
themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper accident prevention mea-
sures—this responsibility is ultimately up to the operator!
