PRODUCT SAFETY
WARNING: 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 and 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 equipment, such as those dust masks that
are specially designed to lter out microscopic
particles.
WARNING: This product can expose you to
chemicals including lead and Di(2-
ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) which are known to
the State of California to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. For more

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and
specications 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.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) 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.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for 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.
e) 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.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces
the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety
a) 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 inuence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control of
the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) 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.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use
of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action
can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) 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.
h) 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.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualied repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety
of the power tool is maintained.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
TABLE SAWS
1) Guarding related warnings
a) 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.
b) Always use saw blade guard, riving knife
and anti-kickback device 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.
c) Immediately reattach the guarding system
after completing an operation (such as
rabbeting) which requires removal of the
guard, riving knife and/or anti-kickback
device. The guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback
device help to reduce the risk of injury.
d) 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.
e) Adjust the riving knife as described in this
instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning
and alignment can make the riving knife ineffective
in reducing the likelihood of kickback.
f) For the riving knife and anti-kickback
device to work, they must be engaged in the
workpiece. The riving knife and anti-kickback
device are ineffective when cutting workpieces that
are too short to be engaged with the riving knife
and anti-kickback device. Under these conditions a
kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and
anti-kickback device.
g) 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.
2) Cutting procedures warnings
a) DANGER: Never place your ngers 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.
b) Feed the workpiece into the saw blade only
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.
c) Never use the mitre gauge to feed the
workpiece when ripping and do not use the
rip fence as a length stop when cross cutting
with the mitre gauge. Guiding the workpiece with
the rip fence and the mitre gauge at the same time
increases the likelihood of saw blade binding and
kickback.
d) 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.
e) 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.
f) Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A
damaged push stick may break causing your hand to
slip into the saw blade.
g) Do not perform any operation “freehand”.
Always use either the rip fence or the mitre
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 mitre
gauge. Freehand sawing leads to misalignment,
binding and kickback.
h) Never reach around or over a rotating saw
blade. Reaching for a workpiece may lead to
accidental contact with the moving saw blade.
i) Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the
rear and/or sides of the saw table for long
and/or wide workpieces 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.
j) 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.
k) Do not remove pieces of cut-off material while

10˝ BENCHTOP TABLE SAW WITH STAND ENG
14
the saw 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.
l) 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.
3) Kickback causes and related warnings
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.
a) 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.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) Align the fence to be parallel with the saw
blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece
against the saw blade and create kickback.
e) Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece
against the table and fence when making non-
through cuts such as rabbeting. A featherboard
helps to control the workpiece in the event of a
kickback.
f) Use extra caution when making a cut into
blind areas of assembled workpieces. The
protruding saw blade may cut objects that can cause
kickback.
g) Support large panels to minimise 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.
h) Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece
that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not
have a straight edge to guide it with a mitre
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.
i) Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked
vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could
pick up one or more pieces and cause kickback.
j) 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.
k) Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with
sufcient 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.
4) Table saw operating procedure warnings
a) Turn off the table saw and disconnect
the power cord when removing the table
insert, changing the saw blade or making
adjustments to the riving knife, anti-kickback
device or saw blade guard, and when the
machine is left unattended. Precautionary
measures will avoid accidents.
b) 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.
c) 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.
d) Frequently clean and remove sawdust from
under the saw table and/or the dust collection
device. Accumulated sawdust is combustible and
may self-ignite.
e) The table saw must be secured. A table saw that
is not properly secured may move or tip over.
f) Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the

15
10˝ BENCHTOP TABLE SAW WITH STAND ENG
table before the table saw is turned on.
Distraction or a potential jam can be dangerous.
g) Always use saw blades with correct size
and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour
holes. Saw blades that do not match the mounting
hardware of the saw will run off-centre, causing loss
of control.
h) Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade
mounting means such as anges, saw blade
washers, bolts or nuts. These mounting means
were specially designed for your saw, for safe
operation and optimum performance.
i) Never stand on the table saw, do not use it
as a stepping stool. Serious injury could occur if
the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally
contacted.
j) Make sure that the saw blade is installed
to rotate in the proper direction. Do not use
grinding wheels, wire brushes, or abrasive
wheels on a table saw. Improper saw blade
installation or use of accessories not recommended
may cause serious injury.

WARNING! Before turning on the On/Off
switch, make sure the blade guard is
correctly installed and operating properly.
To start the table saw, depress the on/off switch to “I”.
To stop the table saw, depress the on/off switch to “O”
2. PUSH STICK (SEE FIG. K)
A push stick is designed to keep hands at a safe distance
from the saw blade. It is used to feed the work-piece
through the saw during narrow ripping cuts. Use the push
stick for ripping widths less than 6” (150 mm) and more
than 2” (50 mm).
3. BASIC TABLE SAW OPERATIONS
a. When crosscutting, miter cutting, bevel cutting,
compound miter cutting or rabbeting across the end of a
narrow work-piece, use the miter gauge.
b. Never make these cuts freehand (not using the miter
gauge or other devices) because the blade could bind,
causing a kickback or causing your hand or fingers to
contact the blade.
c. Always lock the angle of the miter gauge when in use.
d. Except for when making rip cuts, remove the rip fence
from the table .
e. Make sure the blade guard is mounted for all through
sawing operations (the blade cuts through the entire
thickness of the wood). Reattach the guard immediately
after finishing dado, molding or rabbeting cuts.
f. The blade should extend approximately 1/8” (3 mm)
above the top of the work-piece.
g. Use the push stick whenever you make a narrow cut.
4. CROSSCUT (SEE FIG. L1)
Crosscut is cutting wood across the grain at 90° or square
with both the edge and the flat side of the wood.
1) Set miter gauge at 90°.
2) Set the bevel scale to 0° using the blade tilting knob.
Before using the table saw, make sure the miter gauge and
blade tilting knob are locked.
5. MITER CROSSCUT (SEE FIG. L2)
Miter crosscut is cutting the wood at an angle other than
90°.
1) Set miter gauge to the desired angle other than 90°.
2) Set the bevel scale to 0° using the blade tilting knob.
Before using the table saw, make sure the miter gauge and
blade tilting knob are locked.
6. BEVEL CROSSCUT (SEE FIG. L3)
Bevel crosscut is the same as crosscut except that the blade
is also set at an angle other than 90º.
1) Set miter gauge at 90°.
2) Set the bevel scale to the desired angle other than 0°
using the blade tilting knob.
Before using the table saw, make sure the miter gauge and
blade tilting knob are locked.
7. COMPOUND MITER CUT (SEE FIG. L4)
Compound miter cut a combination of miter cut and bevel
crosscut. The cut is made at an angle other than 90° to both
the edge and the flat side of the wood.
1) Set miter gauge to the desired angle other than 90°.
2) Set the bevel scale to the desired angle other than 0°
using the blade tilting knob.
Before using the table saw, make sure the miter gauge and
blade tilting knob are locked.

8. RIPPING (SEE FIG. L5)
Ripping is cutting a piece of wood with the grain. This is
done using the Rip Fence.
Put the fence to the desired width of the rip cut and lock it in
place. Before starting to rip, make sure:
1) The rip fence is parallel to the saw blade.
2) The splitter is properly aligned with the saw blade. When
ripping long boards or large panels, always use a work-
piece support. Hold the material to be cut against the rip
fence and feed it through the blade with smooth, steady
pressure. Only apply feed pressure to the work-piece
between the blade and the rip fence in order to prevent
the work-piece from binding against the blade and
causing kickback.
When ripping boards narrower than 6” (150 mm), use a
push stick to feed the work-piece until it is clear of the table.
When bevel ripping material 6” (150 mm) or narrower, use
the rip fence on the right side of the blade only.
9. CUTTING TIPS
a. Make sure the kerf is made on the scrap side of the
measuring line.
b. Cut the wood with the finished side up.
c. Always have a proper support for the wood as it comes
out of the blade.
d. Make a test cut for important cuts.
e. Always use the correct blade depth setting. The top of
the blade teeth should clear the top of the material being
cut by 1/8” (3 mm) to 1/4” (6 mm).
f. Inspect the work-piece for knots or nails before
beginning a cut.
g. Always use clean, sharp, properly-set blades. Never
make a cut with a dull blade.
h. When making a cut, use steady, even pressure. Never
force a cut.
i. DO NOT cut wet or warped lumber.
j. Always hold your work-piece firmly with both hands or
use a push stick or push block.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Remove the plug from the socket
before carrying out any adjustment,
servicing or maintenance.
1) Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. Inspect tool cords periodically and if
damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility.
2) Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or
maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in
your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners
to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.
3) Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the
motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls
free of dust. If you see some sparks flashing in the
ventilation slots, this is normal and will not damage your
power tool.
4) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid any hazard.
1. CHANGING THE SAW BLADE
WARNING: Do not use for ferrous metals. Do
not use saw without proper guards. Before
each use, examine blade and tips for cracks,
breaking, missing or loose tips, or other damage.
1) Remove the blade guard and the blade throat plate.
2) Raise the blade to the highest possible position.
3) To keep the spindle from rotating, place the Wrench 1
on the flange flats to lock it. Place the Wrench 2 on the
nut and rotate the nut anti-clockwise to loosen the arbor
nut. (See Fig. M)
4) Remove the nut, outer flange, blade, inner washer, inner
flange from the spindle.
5) Replace with a new Blade. Be sure that the teeth are
facing toward the front side of the saw.
6) Replace the outer flange and nut and tighten securely.
Make sure both blade flanges are in contact with the
blade.
7) Re-position the blade throat plate and the blade guard.
