GENERAL SAFETY RULES
4
WORK AREA SAFETY
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ig-
nite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operat-
ing a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never mod-
ify 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.
2. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded sur-
faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-
tors. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi-
tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for car-
rying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Dam-
aged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric
shock.
5. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an ex-
tension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
6. 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
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use com-
mon sense when operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a respira-
tory mask, non-skid safety shoes and hearing protec-
tion used for appropriate conditions will reduce the risk
of personal injury.
3. 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
energizing power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
4. 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 tool may result in personal injury.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
6. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
7. 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.
8. 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.
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. The term “power tool”
in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
5
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
1. 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 de-
signed.
2. 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.
3. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or
the battery pack 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.
4. 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.
5. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any oth-
er 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.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
7. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-
count the working conditions and the work to be per-
formed. Use of power tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
8. Use clamps to secure your workpiece to a stable
surface. Holding a workpiece by hand or using your
body to support it may lead to loss of control.
9. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
10. 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
1. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that safety of the power tool is maintained.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding,
drilling, and other construction activities may contain
chemicals, including lead, known to the State of Califor-
nia to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other ma-
sonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lum-
ber.
Your risk from these exposures varies depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your ex-
posure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area
with approved safety equipment such as dust masks
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. The term “power tool”
in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

TABLE SAW SAFETY
1. Never place your hands in the vicinity of, or in line
with, the saw blade.
2. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection, as
well as hearing protection and respiratory protection.
3. Avoid kickback. Keep the blade sharp and the rip
fence parallel to the saw blade. Make sure the riving
knife, anti-kickback devices, and the blade guard are in
place, properly aligned, and functional. Do not release
a workpiece before passing it completely through the
blade. Do not rip a workpiece that is twisted or warped.
Do not attempt to pull the workpiece backwards out of a
cut while the blade is still turning.
4. Always use a properly functioning saw blade guard,
riving knife and anti-kickback device for every operation
for which it can be used, including all through sawing.
5. Use a push-stick or push-block when required, espe-
cially when ripping narrow workpieces. A push stick is
supplied with the saw.
6. Do not perform any operation freehand. Always use
the fence, miter gauge, or both to support and guide the
workpiece.
7. Pay particular attention to instructions on reducing
the risk of kickback.
8. Never reach around or over the saw blade.
9. Turn off tool and wait for the saw blade to come to
a complete stop before moving workpiece or changing
settings.
10. Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Al-
ways position your body on the same side of the saw
blade as the fence.
11. Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade
pinching or kickback.
12. Keep hands out of the line of the saw blade.
13. DON'T USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tools in damp or wet locations, or expose
them to rain. Keep work area well lit. Do not use power
tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
14. MAKE WORKSHOP KID PROOF with padlocks, mas-
ter switches, or by removing starter keys.
15. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force tool or attach-
ment to do a job for which it was not designed.
16. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing, gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry
which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip foot-
wear is recommended. Tie back long hair.
17. 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 prop-
erly and perform its intended function - check for align-
ment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
18. REMOVE ALL ACCESSORIES from the table prior to
transporting the saw.
19. DANGER - NEVER attempt to free a stalled blade
without first turning the saw OFF and unplugging it.
20. PROVIDE ADEQUATE SUPPORT to long or wide
workpieces.
21. AVOID AWKWARD OPERATIONS and hand posi-
tions, where a sudden slip could cause your hand to
move into the blade or its path.
22. SECURELY MOUNT THE TABLE SAW to a workbench
or stand before performing any cutting operations.
23. NEVER CUT METALS or any material that creates
hazardous dust.
SAW BLADE SAFETY
1. Always wear protective gloves when handling saw
blades.
2. Only use blades with correct size and type for both
your table saw and your workpiece.
• The rated diameter of the saw blade is 10 inches
with a 5/8 inch arbor.
• The no-load speed of the table saw is 4800 RPM.
The maximum permissible speed of your saw blade
should always be higher than the no-load rotational
speed of the saw.
SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TABLE SAW
WARNING! Do not operate the power tool until you have read and understood the following instructions
and the warning labels.
6

3. Never use damaged or deformed saw blades. Only
use sharp blades.
4. Install the saw blade in the correct orientation indi-
cated in the instructions.
5. Keep hands out of path of saw blade. Never use your
hands to remove sawdust, chips or workpiece near the
saw blade or the cutting path of the saw.
6. Never reach around the blade or in back of the blade.
7. Do not use blades made from high-speed steel, abra-
sive blades, metal-cutting blades or masonry-cutting
blades. The guards of this saw are not designed to pro-
tect against the failure of such blades.
8. The use of accessories or attachments not recom-
mended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of per-
sonal injury.
GUARD-RELATED WARNINGS
1. 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 re-
paired or replaced.
2. 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.
3. Immediately reattach the guarding system after com-
pleting an operation (such as rabbeting, dadoing or re-
sawing cuts) which requires removal of the guard, riv-
ing knife and/or anti-kickback device. The guard, riving
knife, and anti-kickback device help to reduce the risk
of injury.
4. 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.
5. Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruc-
tion manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and align-
ment can make the riving knife ineffective in reducing
the likelihood of kickback.
6. 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 con-
ditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving
knife and anti-kickback device.
7. 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 WARNINGS
1. DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands in the
vicinity of 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.
2. Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cutter 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.
3. Never use the miter gauge to feed the workpiece
when 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.
4. When ripping, always apply force to the workpiece
between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick
when the distance between the fence and the saw blade
is less than 6 inches (150mm), and use a push block
when this distance is less than 2 inches (50mm). Work
helping devices will keep your hand at a safe distance
from the saw blade.
5. Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer
or constructed in accordance with the instructions. This
push stick provides sufficient separation between the
hand and the saw blade.

WARNING! Do not operate the power tool until you have read and understood the following instructions
and the warning labels.

8
SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TABLE SAW
WARNING! Do not operate the power tool until you have read and understood the following instructions
and the warning labels.
6. Never use a damaged or cut push stick. It may break
causing your hand to slip into the saw blade.
7. 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.
8. Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade. This
may lead to accidental contact with moving saw blade.
9. Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/
or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide work-
pieces 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.
10. 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. Jam-
ming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause kick-
back or stall the motor.
11. Do not remove pieces of cut-off material while the
saw is running. The material may become trapped be-
tween 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.
12. Use an auxiliary fence in contact with table top when
ripping workpieces less than 2mm thick. A thin work-
piece may wedge under rip fence and create kickback.
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 dur-
ing 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.
1. Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Al-
ways 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.
2. 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.
3. Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut
off against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the work-
piece being cut off against the saw blade will create a
binding condition and kickback.
4. Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A
misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the
saw blade and create kickback.
5. Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the
table and fence when making non-through cuts such as
rabbeting, dadoing or resawing cuts. A featherboard
helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.
6. Use extra caution when making a cut into blind ar-
eas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked verti-
cally or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or
more pieces and cause kickback.

9
SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TABLE SAW
WARNING! Do not operate the power tool until you have read and understood the following instructions
and the warning labels.
10. When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the
workpiece, center 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 kick-
back when the saw is restarted.
11. 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 minimize binding, stalling and kickback.
TABLE SAW OPERATION WARNINGS
1. 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, ant kickback
device or saw blade guard, and when the machine is
left unattended. Precautionary measures will avoid ac-
cidents.
2. 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.
3. 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 or slippery floors invite accidents.
4. Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under the
saw table and/or the dust collection device. Accumu-
lated sawdust is combustible and may self-ignite.
5. The table saw must be secured. A table saw that is
not properly secured may move or tip over. Mount it
securely to a benchtop or stand before cutting.
6. Remove tools, wood scraps, etc. from the table be-
fore the table saw is turned on. Distraction or a potential
jam can be dangerous.
7. Always use saw blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbor holes. Saw blades that
do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run
off-center, causing loss of control.
8. Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mount-
ing means such as flanges, saw blade washers, bolts or
nuts. These mounting means were specially designed
for your saw, for safe operation and optimum perfor-
mance.
9. Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as a step-
ping stool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped
or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.
10. 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 recom-
mended may cause serious injury.
CAUTION: This means that if precautions are not heed-
ed, it may result in minor or moderate injury and/or
possible machine damage.
WARNING: This means that if precautions are not
heeded, it could result in serious injury or possibly even
death.
WARNING: The operation of any power tool can result
in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which
can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning pow-
er tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety
glasses with side shields and a full face shield when
needed. Always use eye protection which is marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1.
WARNING: If the power cord requires replacement, this
must be done by the manufacturer.
WARNING: Only cut wood on this table saw. Do not cut
any plastic and metal on this saw.
WARNING: Always keep guards in place and in proper
operating condition.
WARNING: Use blade guard for every applicable opera-
tion including all through cuts. If the guard is removed
for special non-through cuts, such as dado or rabbet
cuts, replace the blade guard before further use of the
saw.
WARNING: Keep hands out of the line of the saw blade.
Never reach around or over the saw blade.

15A 14 gauge 12 gauge Not Recommended Not Recommended
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
1. EXAMINE EXTENSION CORD BEFORE USE. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good con-
dition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
2. DO NOT ABUSE EXTENSION CORD. Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect by
pulling on plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the
extension cord. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
3. USE A SEPARATE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT FOR YOUR TOOL. This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge wire
and should be protected with a 15A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure
the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor
nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below
shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier
cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
GUIDELINES AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENSION CORDS
IMPORTANT: Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by qualified service personnel using identical replacement parts. Always use original factory
replacement parts when servicing.
1. POLARIZED PLUGS. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet. Do not modify the machine
plug or the extension cord in any way.
2. GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION (GFCI) should be provided on the circuit or outlet used
for this power tool to reduce the risk of electric shock.
3. SERVICE AND REPAIR. To avoid danger, electrical appliances must only be repaired by qualified service techni-
cian using original replacement parts.
DOUBLE-INSULATED TOOLS
The tool’s electrical system is double insulated where two systems of insulation are provided. This
eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded power cord. Double insulated tools do not
need to be grounded, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. All exposed metal
parts are isolated from the internal metal motor components with protecting insulation.

BEVELING THE BLADE
To bevel the blade, move the blade bevel locking lever (Fig.
16 - 1) up to release the locking mechanism. Adjust the
blade bevel using the pointer (Fig. 16 - 2) and scale. Once
the blade is in the desired position, lock the blade in place
by moving the blade bevel locking lever down.
FENCE POSITION
Pull the fence lock lever (Fig. 17 - 2) up to unlock the fence.
Turn the fence adjustment knob (Fig. 17 - 1) to move the
fence left or right. Push down on the fence lock lever to
lock the fence in place.
FENCE SCALE
The fence scale (Fig. 18 - 1) and pointer (Fig. 18 - 2) shows
the distance between the blade and the left edge of the
fence. The fence scale has two scales - one for the inner
fence position, and one for the outer. Ensure that you're
referring to the correct scale depending on the fence posi-
tion.
The fence scale has been calibrated at the factory. How-
ever, if you find that you need to make adjustments, unlock
the fence, loosen the two fence scale screws (Fig. 18 - 3),
adjust the fence as necessary, then tighten the screws and
lock the fence down.
AUXILIARY FENCE
This saw comes with an L-shape auxiliary fence (Fig. 19
- 1) for narrow rip cuts. When ripping material 1/8” or thin-
ner, to prevent workpieces from slipping under the fence,
the auxiliary fence must be used. Swing the auxiliary fence
down toward the blade side of the fence. Figure 20 shows
the auxiliary fence in use. When done, replace the auxiliary
fence atop the fence, making sure it sits securely on the pin
at the end of the fence.

cluded arbor wrench or a 23mm combination wrench to
loosen and remove the arbor nut (Fig. 25 - 2). Remove the
blade flange and the blade.
5. Install the new blade on the arbor, with the directional
arrows (Fig. 26 - 1) on the blade matching the arrow on the
inside of the blade housing (that is, so the teeth point down
at the front of the saw). Install the flange and arbor nut.
Securely tighten the nut. (Fig. 26).

CROSSCUTTING
Crosscutting is to cut a workpiece across its main grain or
its width. Follow the steps below to make a cross cut.
OPERATION
Fig. 27
WARNING! Serious injury can be caused by kickback. Kickback can occur when tension is created between
a workpiece sitting against the fence and the blade. This can cause the workpiece to be thrown toward the
operator or bystanders. To prevent kickback, review the "SPECIFIC RULES FOR YOUR TABLE SAW" section.
WARNING! Disconnect the machine from the power
source before performing the following steps.
1. Remove the fence assembly.
2. Set the blade height 1/8” higher than the top of the work-
piece.
3. Set miter gauge to 0° and place it in the desired slot.
4. Hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge with
the blade path aligned with the desired cutting location.
Leave the workpiece at least an inch away from the blade.
5. Connect the machine to power and start the machine,
and allow the blade to come up to full speed.
WARNING! Keep both hands away from the blade
and the path of the blade.
6. Keep the workpiece firmly against the face of the miter
gauge while holding the workpiece flat against the table.
7. Slowly push the workpiece through the blade until the
workpiece is pushed completely past the blade.
WARNING! Never pull the workpiece while the
blade is turning.
8. Turn off the table saw, allow the blade to come to a com-
plete stop, and carefully remove the workpiece.
