Warnings

1. Read and understand the entire owner's manual before attempting assembly or operation.

2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the machine and in this manual. Failure to comply with

all of these warnings may cause serious injury.

3. Replace the warning labels if they become obscured or removed.

4. This Table Saw is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only.

If you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a Table Saw, do not use until proper

training and knowledge have been obtained.

5. Do not use this Table Saw for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes, WMH Tool

Group disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result

from that use.

6. Always wear approved safety glasses/face shields while using this Table Saw. Everyday eyeglasses

only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.

7. Before operating this Table Saw, remove tie, rings, watches and other jewelry, and roll sleeves up

past the elbows. Remove all loose clothing and confine long hair. Non-slip footwear or anti-skid floor

strips are recommended. Do not wear gloves.

8. Always use the blade guard on all ''through-sawing'' operations. A through-sawing operation is one in

which the blade cuts completely through the workpiece.

9. Kickback occurs when the workpiece is thrown towards the operator at a high rate of speed. If you do

not have a clear understanding of kickback and how it occurs, DO NOT operate this table saw!

10. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operation.

11. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities

contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples

of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead based paint.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

12. Your risk of exposure 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 face or dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic

particles.

13. Do not operate this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

14. Make certain the switch is in the OFF position before connecting the machine to the power supply.

15. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.

16. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with the machine unplugged from the power source.

17. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting

wrenches are removed from the machine before turning it on.

18. Keep safety guards in place at all times when the machine is in use. If removed for maintenance

purposes, use extreme caution and replace the guards immediately.

19. Make sure the Table Saw is firmly secured to the floor or bench before use.

20. Check damaged parts. Before further use of the machine, 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 should

be properly repaired or replaced.

21. Provide for adequate space surrounding work area and non-glare, overhead lighting.

22. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease.

23. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep children away.

24. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks, master switches or by removing starter keys.

25. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation and “horse-play” are

careless acts that can result in serious injury.

26. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall into the blade or other moving parts. Do

not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation.

27. Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job for

which it was not designed. The right tool will do the job better and safer.

28. Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be hazardous.

29. Maintain tools with care. Keep saw blades sharp and clean for the best and safest performance.

Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

30. Turn off the machine before cleaning. Use a brush or compressed air to remove chips or debris — do

not use your hands.

31. Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur if the machine tips over.

32. Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power off and do not leave the machine until it

comes to a complete stop.

33. Remove loose items and unnecessary work pieces from the area before starting the machine.

Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:

This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or

possible machine damage.

This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious injury or possibly

even death.

The most common accidents among table saw users, according to statistics, can

be linked to kickback, the high-speed expulsion of material from the table that can strike the

operator. Kickback can also result in operator’s hands being pulled into the blade.

Kickback Prevention

Tips to avoid the most common causes of

kickback:

• Make sure the blade splitter is always

aligned with the blade. A workpiece can bind

or stop the flow of the cut if the blade splitter

is misaligned and result in kickback.

• Use the blade splitter during every cut. The

blade splitter maintains the kerf in the

workpiece, which will reduce the chance of

kickback.

• Never attempt freehand cuts. The workpiece

must be fed perfectly parallel with the blade,

otherwise kickback will likely occur. Always

use the rip fence or crosscut fence to

support the workpiece.

• Make sure that the rip fence is parallel with

the blade. If not, the chances of kickback are

very high. Take the time to check and adjust

the rip fence.

• Feed cuts through to completion. Anytime

you stop feeding a workpiece that is in the

middle of a cut, the chance of binding,

resulting in kickback, is greatly increased.

Protection Tips from

Kickback

Kickback can happen even if precautions are

taken to prevent it. Listed below are some tips to

always follow to protect you if kickback DOES

occur:

• Stand to the side of the blade when cutting.

An ejected workpiece usually travels directly

in front of the blade.

• Wear safety glasses or a face shield. Your

eyes and face are the most vulnerable part

of your body.

• Never place your hand behind the blade. If

kickback occurs, your hand will be pulled

into the blade.

• Use a push stick to keep your hands farther

away from the moving blade. If a kickback

occurs, the push stick will most likely take

the damage that your hand would have

received.

Definitions and Terminology

Arbor: Metal shaft that connects the drive

mechanism to the blade.

Bevel Edge Cut: Tilt of the saw arbor and blade

between 0° and 45° to perform an angled cutting

operation.

Blade Guard: Mechanism mounted over the

saw blade to prevent accidental contact with the

cutting edge.

Crosscut: Sawing operation in which the miter

gauge is used to cut across the grain of the

workpiece.

Dado Blade: Blade(s) used for cutting grooves

and rabbets.

Dado Cut: Flat bottomed groove in the face of

the workpiece made with a dado blade.

Featherboard: Device used to keep a board

against the rip fence or table that allows the

operator to keep hands away from the saw

blade.

Kerf: The resulting cut or gap made by a saw

blade.

Kickback: An event in which the workpiece is

lifted up and thrown back toward an operator,

caused when a work piece binds on the saw

blade or between the saw blade and rip fence

(or other fixed object). To minimize or prevent

injury from kickbacks, see the Operating

Instructions section.

Miter Gauge: A component that controls the

workpiece movement while performing a

crosscut of various angles.

Non-Through Cut: A sawing operation that

requires the removal of the blade guard splitter,

resulting in a cut that does not protrude through

the top of the workpiece (includes Dado and

rabbet cuts).

The blade guard and splitter must be re-installed

after performing a non-through cut to avoid

accidental contact with the saw blade during

operation.

Parallel: Position of the rip fence equal in

distance at every point to the side face of the

saw blade.

Perpendicular: 90° (right angle) intersection or

position of the vertical and horizontal planes

such as the position of the saw blade (vertical)

to the table surface (horizontal).

Push Board/Push Stick: An instrument used to

safely push the workpiece through the cutting

operation.

Rabbet: A cutting operation that creates an

L-shaped channel along the edge of the board.

Rip Cut: A cut made along the grain of the

workpiece.

Splitter: Metal plate to which the blade guard is

attached that maintains the kerf opening in the

workpiece when performing a cutting operation.

Standard Kerf: 1/8" gap made with a standard

blade.

Straightedge: A tool used to check that a

surface is flat or parallel.

Through Sawing: A sawing operation in which

the workpiece thickness is completely sawn

through. Proper blade height usually allows a

1/8" of the top of the blade to extend above the

wood stock.

Each assembly section will start by listing the

applicable model(s) for that assembly procedure.

The starting point for your particular model,

however, is as follows:

Models LSA, LSB: start with Leg Assembly below.

Models BTA, BTB, BTC: start with Installing the

Blade Guard and Splitter on page 12.

Leg Assembly

Models LSA, LSB

Follow these Leg Assembly instructions if you plan

to use your saw as a floor model. If this saw is to

be used for bench top applications, skip this section

and proceed to the Extension Table section.

Tools required – 10mm socket and wrench

Referring to Figures 1 and 2:

Required hardware (for each leg): two M6x12 hex

cap screws (C) and three M6 flange hex nuts (F).

1. With the saw upside down on the floor, remove

the four rubber feet (A) from each corner of the

base.

2. Take one leg (B) and position it so the outside

tab (G), containing the mounting hole, is

towards the bottom.

3. Mount one leg to a corner of the saw base so

the hole in the outside tab (G) lines up with the

screw (H) and the two holes on the leg's inside

tab (J) rests on top of the base tabs (K) with

the mounting holes lined up.

Note: The leg with the WARNING label must be

mounted on the corner of the saw base that also

has the WARNING label.

4. Insert two hex cap screws (C) through the

mounting holes of the leg tab (J) and base tab

(K). Secure with flange hex nuts (F

). Hand-

Figure 2

5. Secure the leg's outside tab (G) to the screw

(H) on the base with a flange hex nut (F

Hand-tighten only.

Mount two more legs in the same manner

described in steps 1–5. Don't mount the last leg

until the shelf is installed as described in the next

section.

Mounting the Shelf

Models LSA, LSB

Note: The shelf is easier to install when three legs

have been assembled. The fourth leg should be

assembled after this section is completed.

Required hardware (for assembling all four legs):

four M6 flange hex nuts (J).

Referring to Figure 3:

1. While the saw is still upside down, position the

shelf (A) between the three legs (B) and below

the legs' mounting tabs (D). The sides of the

shelf (D) should point down.

2. Bring the shelf up, positioning the tabs of shelf

(E) against the bottom of the mounting tabs on

the legs (C), and line up the mounting holes.

3. From underneath the shelf, insert a hex cap

screw (F) up through the mounting holes of the

shelf and leg tabs. Secure the threaded portion

of the screw protruding through the top side of

the leg mounting tab with a flange hex nut (J),

hand-tightening only at this time.

After the shelf is secured to all three legs,

assemble the final leg (described in previous

section) and then finish by securing the remaining

shelf tab to the leg as well.

Figure 3

Rubber Feet

Models LSA, LSB

Referring to Figure 4:

While the saw is still upside down,

1. Place rubber foot (B) on the leg (A), sliding

forward (1) while at the same time allowing the

rear tab (C) of the leg to slide through the

opening (D) in the heel of the rubber foot.

2. Press the foot down (2) until the foot "snaps"

into position on the leg.

3. Repeat for remaining three legs.

At this time, turn the saw right side up. Place on a

level surface and tighten all screws for the leg and

shelf assembly.

Figure 4

Dust Shroud

Model LSB only

Note: Install the dust shroud only if a separate dust

collection or vacuum system will be used.

Referring to Figure 5:

1. Place the dust shroud (A) inside the legs with

the port (B) towards the rear of the saw and

positioned down as shown.

2. Bring the front end of the shroud up so the two

front tabs (C) catch the lip (D) of the base,

securing it in position. The opening at the

corners of the shroud (E) should wrap around

the leg tabs (F).

3. Press the back of the shroud up until the rear

tabs snap into place against lip at the back of

the base.

Figure 5

Installing the Blade Guard and Splitter

All models

Referring to Figure 6:

If your table saw came with a back support (C), the

blade guard/splitter installation and alignment will

be facilitated by loosening and sliding the back

support away from the table.

1. Loosen the hex nut (G) on the splitter support

bracket (E) to provide sufficient clearance for

the blade guard and splitter assembly (next

step).

2. Take the blade guard and splitter assembly

and slide the tab of the splitter (B and F) on the

screw of the splitter support bracket (E)

between the flat washer (D) and bracket (E).

3. Tighten the hex nut (G) enough to hold the

blade guard and splitter assembly in place.

Adjustment will be required and is described in the

Adjustment section (see Aligning the Blade Guard

and Splitter).

Aligning the Blade Guard and Splitter

All models

Referring to Figures 7 and 8:

1. Raise the blade guard (B) away from the table.

2. Set a straight edge (E), against the saw blade

(F) on the right side as shown. The anti-kick

pawl (D) needs to be lifted momentarily until

the straight edge is placed in position.

Note: The straight edge needs to rest against

the body of the saw blade and not the saw

teeth.

3. With a 10mm wrench, loosen two hex cap

screws (H) securing the splitter bracket (G) and

adjust the splitter (C) sideways until alignment

with the saw blade (F) is achieved.

4. Tighten the hex cap screws (H).

Make sure the splitter (C) is level with the table and

approximately 1/8" above the table. A 1/8" space

allows the blade guard assembly to tilt to a 45º

angle without contacting the table.

If the splitter level needs adjustment:

5. With two 10mm wrenches, loosen the nut and

screw (J) assembly, adjust the splitter (C) to

1/8" above the table. Tighten the hardware.

Use a square to verify that the splitter is

perpendicular to the table surface and adjust if

required.

1. Attach the rip fence to the table (as described

in the previous section) to the right of the saw

blade, but do not lower the handle to clamp the

fence to the table.

2. Slide the fence against the saw blade.

You will need to raise the blade guard and the

anti-kick pawl to provide clearance for the

fence.

3. With the fence snug against the saw blade,

clamp the fence in position by lowering the

handle.

Referring to Figure 10:

The hairline on the indicator (A) should line up with

0" on the rail (C). If they do not line up:

4. Slightly loosen the screw (B).

5. Slide the indicator until the hairline lines up with

0" on the rail.

6. Tighten the screw.

After the stamped steel extension wing is installed,

the front rail needs to be repositioned to

accommodate the fence when it is positioned over

the extension wing. This is done as follows:

Item F, Fig. 13 shows the initial position of the front

rail.

1. Using a 5mm hex wrench and a 10mm open

end wrench, completely remove the screw,

spacer and lock nut (shown in the inset) that

secure the rail from the two left and far right

mounting holes (A), (B), and (D).

Note: Do not remove mounting hardware from

the third mounting hole (C).

Figure 11

Figure 12

Figure 13

2. Rotate the front rail clockwise (G) until the left

end becomes the right end in front of the

extension wing.

3. Reassemble the three screws, spacers and

lock nuts securing the front rail.

The screws are inserted through the front of

the rail, the spacers are positioned between the

rail and table (or extension), and the lock

washers are fastened to the screw from behind

the lip of the table (or extension).

Right Wing used on Models BTC, LSA and LSB

Left Wing used on Model LSB

Assembly (if required)

Refer to Figure 14.

For saws using the sliding extension wings, two

extension rods (C) need to be assembled before

mounting to the table. Assembly for the right

extension wing (A), identified by no rule on the rail

(J), is described below. Assembly for the left wing

is the same.

1. Using two 10mm wrenches, remove the lock

nut (B) from the extension rods (C and D).

2. Turn the extension wing (A) over so the JET

logo lays face down and the mounting holes

and tabs (F,K) are visible.

3. Insert the rods (D) through the mounting holes

on the extension wing (F) and tab (K)

The threaded end of the rod (D) should

protrude through the hole in the tab (K).

4. Place hex nuts (G) on the threaded ends of the

extension rods (D), leaving loose enough to

rotate the rods by hand.

5. Rotate the extension rods so that the threaded

holes, located near the ends away from the

extension table, are in line with the top of the

extension table.

6. Secure the extension rods with two 10mm

wrenches, placing one wrench on the hex nut

and the other on the flat indents of the rod.

7. Repeat the above steps for the left extension

wing for models that include it.

Mounting the Right Extension Wing Assembly

Adjusting Blade Parallel to Miter Gauge

Slots

When working around the saw

blade, always disconnect the saw from the

power source! Failure to comply may cause

serious injury!

The saw blade was adjusted at the factory to be

parallel to the miter gauge slots and should not

need adjustment. However, if upon inspection it is

determined that adjustment is required, follow the

steps below.

1. Using the handwheel (A, Fig. 19), raise the saw

blade as high as it will go.

Referring to Figure 21:

2. Place the base of a combination square (A)

pressed against the edge of the miter slot (B).

Extend the sliding rule (C) so it just touches the

tooth at the near end of the blade (D), then

tighten the locking screw on the combination

square to secure the sliding rule.

3. Move the square to the far end of the blade (E).

If a gap appears or if the base of the

combination square will not rest against the

edge of the miter slot, adjustment is required

as follows:

Saw blades are sharp. Be

extremely careful when working around them!

Failure to comply may cause serious injury!

Referring to Figure 22:

4. From underneath the table saw, loosen 3 (of 4)

screws (A) that secure the motor to the base.

5. Carefully move the saw blade until the blade is

parallel to the miter gauge slot. Check by

repeating steps 2 and 3. When adjustment is

complete, securely tighten the screws (A).

Replacing the Blade

When installing or changing the

saw blade, always disconnect the saw from the

power source! Failure to comply may cause

serious injury!

1. Using the handwheels, raise the blade arbor

fully and lock the saw at zero degrees (see

steps 1–3 in the 90 Degree Positive Stop

section); then tighten the blade tilt lock knob

(B, Fig. 19).

2. Remove the two insert screws and lift the table

insert (C, Fig. 23) out of the pocket of the

table.

Figure 21

Figure 22

Figure 23

3. Place the open end arbor wrench (A, Fig. 23)

on the flat sides of the inside blade flange to

keep the saw arbor from rotating. Rotate the

arbor nut counterclockwise with the closed

arbor nut wrench (B, Fig. 23) and remove the

arbor nut and outer flange.

4. Replace the old blade with a new one, making

certain that the teeth are pointing down at the

front of the table (refer to D, Fig. 21).

5. Assemble the outer flange, arbor nut and

securely tighten the arbor nut clockwise while

holding the arbor steady with the open end

arbor wrench.

Replacing/Adjusting the Drive Belt

For Replacement and Adjustment

1. Remove the saw blade (see Replacing the

Blade on page 19).

2. Using the front handwheel, lower the blade

arbor to its lowest position (rotate handwheel

counterclockwise).

3. Remove the blade guard and splitter (see

Installing the Blade Guard and Splitter section

on page12), then turn the saw upside down.

4. Remove the dust shroud if applicable.

Referring to Figure 24:

5. With a 5mm hex wrench, loosen four socket

head cap screws (A) that secure the arbor

support (B) to the motor casing.

If adjusting belt tension only (no belt replacement),

skip steps 6 – 10 and proceed to step 11.

6. With a 10mm wrench, loosen the tension adjust

screw (C) by turning counterclockwise.

7. Push the arbor support (B) forward (D) to

relieve tension on the belt (E).

8. Remove belt (E) from the motor and arbor

pulleys (F, G).

9. Replace the old belt with a new belt making

sure that it sits properly on both pulleys.

10. Pull the arbor support (B) back (H), placing

tension on the belt, and hand-tighten the four

mounting screws (A).

Adjustment

11. With a 10mm wrench, turn the tension adjust

screw (C) to place proper tension on the belt.

Adjustment is sufficient when moderate finger

pressure on the belt between the pulleys

results in approximately 1/4" deflection.

12. Tighten the four mounting screws (A) with a

5mm hex wrench.

After the Adjustment

13. Replace the dust shroud (page 11) if

applicable.

14. Turn the table saw right-side up.

Miter Gauge Operation

Operate the miter gauge by loosening the lock

knob (A, Fig. 25) and turning the miter body

(B, Fig. 25) to the desired angle.

Note: Always make test cuts. Do not rely solely on

miter gauge indicator marks.

Electrical Connections

This saw has a motor that operates on 120VAC

and is equipped with a power cord that plugs into a

standard grounded 3-prong 120VAC

outlet as shown.

Before hooking up to the power

source, be sure the switch is in the

off position.

If an extension cord is used, select

one with a rating appropriate for the

job from the chart below.

0012 Gauge Cord 000 – 25 feet

0010 Gauge Cord 000 – 50 feet

008 Gauge Cord 000 – 100 feet

Extension Cord Chart

Operating Controls

On/Off Switch – The on/off switch is located on the

front panel of the saw base (C, Fig. 26). To turn the

saw on move the switch to the up position

(F, Fig. 27). To turn the switch off move the switch

to the down position.

Locking Key – When the saw is not in use, the

switch should be locked in the off position. To lock

the switch in the off position, pull out the safety key

(G, Fig. 27). The saw will not start with the key

removed. However, if the key is removed while the

switch is in the on position, it can be turned off

once. The saw will not restart until the key has

been reinserted into the switch.

Overload Protection – This saw is equipped with

a resetable overload relay button (D, Fig. 26). If the

motor shuts off or fails to start due to overloading or

low voltage, turn the switch (C, Fig. 26) to the off

position and let the motor cool down for at least five

minutes. After the motor has cooled down, push the

reset button (D, Fig. 26) to reset the overload

device. The saw should now start when the switch

is returned to the on position.

Blade Height/Tilt Handwheel – The handwheel

located on the front of the saw (A, Fig. 26) sets the

blade height and tilt.

To raise or lower the blade, simply turn the hand-

Figure 25

Figure 26

Figure 27

wheel (A, Fig. 26) clockwise or counterclockwise.

To tilt the blade:

1. Press the handwheel in.

2. Loosen the blade tilt lock knob (B, Fig. 26) by

turning counterclockwise.

3. Still pressing the handwheel in, turn clockwise

or counterclockwise to set the blade between

0º (blade 90º perpendicular to table) and 45º

(left tilt).

When the desired blade angle is set,

4. Continue holding the handwheel (A, Fig. 26) in

until the lock knob (B, Fig. 26) is tightened.

Operations

Before turning the saw on,

make sure that the table is free of tools,

hardware and debris. These items can

become projectiles and cause serious injury.

Table Saws

Familiarize yourself with the location and

operation of all controls and adjustments and the

use of accessories such as the miter gauge and

rip fence.

Kickbacks

Serious injury can result from kickbacks which

occur when a work piece binds on the saw blade

or binds between the saw blade and rip fence or

other fixed object. This binding can cause the

work piece to lift up and be thrown toward the

operator.

Listed below are conditions, which can cause

kickbacks:

 Confining the cutoff piece when crosscutting

or ripping.

 Releasing the work piece before completing

the operation or not pushing the work piece

all the way past the saw blade.

 Not using the splitter when ripping or not

maintaining alignment of the splitter with the

saw blade.

 Using a dull saw blade.

 Not maintaining alignment of the rip fence so

that it tends to angle toward rather than

away from the saw blade front to back.

 Applying feed force when ripping to the

cutoff (free) section of the work piece

instead of the section between the saw

blade and fence.

 Ripping wood that is twisted (not flat), or

does not have a straight edge, or a twisted

grain.

To minimize or prevent injury from kickbacks:

 Avoid conditions listed above.

 Wear a safety face shield, goggles, or

glasses.

 Do not use the miter gauge and rip fence in

the same operation unless provision is made

by use of a facing board (auxiliary block) on

the fence so as to allow the cutoff section of

the workpiece to come free before the next

cut is started (see Figure 35).

 As the machine receives use, the operation

of the anti-kickback pawls should be

checked periodically (Figure 26). If the pawls

do not stop the reverse motion of a

workpiece, resharpen all the points.

 Where possible, keep your face and body

out of line with potential kickbacks including

when starting or stopping the machine.

Figure 28

Dull, badly set, improper, or improperly filed

cutting tools and cutting tools with gum or resin

adhering to them can cause accidents. Never

use a cracked saw blade. The use of a sharp,

well maintained, and correct cutting tool for the

operation will help to avoid injuries.

Support the work properly and hold it firmly

against the gauge or fence. Use a push stick or

push block when ripping short, narrow (6" width

or less), or thin work. Use a push block or miter

gauge hold-down when dadoing or molding.

For increased safety in crosscutting, use an

auxiliary wood facing (Figure 29) attached to the

miter gauge using the holes provided in the

gauge.

Figure 29

Never use the fence as a length stop when

crosscutting. Do not hold or touch the free end

or cutoff section of a workpiece. On through-

sawing operations, the cutoff section must NOT

be confined.

Always keep your hands out of the line of the

saw blade and never reach back of the cutting

blade with either hand to hold the workpiece.

Bevel ripping cuts should always be made with

the fence on the right side of the saw blade so

that the blade tilts away from the fence and

minimizes the possibility of the work binding and

the resulting kickback.

Rip Sawing

Ripping is where the work piece is fed with the

grain into the saw blade using the fence as a

guide and a positioning device to ensure the

desired width of cut (Figure 30).

Figure 30

Before starting a ripping cut,

be sure the fence is clamped securely and

aligned properly.

 Never rip freehand or use the miter gauge in

combination with the fence.

 Never rip workpieces shorter than the saw

blade diameter.

 Never reach behind the blade with either

hand to hold down or remove the cutoff

piece with the saw blade rotating.

Always use the blade guard, splitter and anti-

kickback pawls. Make sure the splitter is

properly aligned. When wood is cut along the

grain, the kerf tends to close and bind on the

blade and kickbacks can occur.

Note: A caution decal is installed on the guard

and splitter assembly warning of the hazard of

misalignment.

Figure 31

The rip fence (A, Fig. 31) should be set for the

width of the cut (C, Fig. 31) by using the scale

on the front rail, or by measuring the distance

between the blade (B) and fence (A). Stand out

of line with the saw blade and workpiece to

avoid sawdust and splinters coming off the blade

or a kickback, if one should occur.

If the work piece does not have a straight edge,

nail an auxiliary straight edged board on it to

provide one against the fence. To cut properly,

the board must make good contact with the

table. If it is warped, turn the hollow side down.

In ripping, use one hand to hold the board down

against the fence or fixture, and the other to

push it into the blade between the blade and the

fence. If the workpiece is narrower than 6" use a

push stick or push block to push it through

between the fence and saw blade (Figure 32).

Never push in a location such that the pushing

hand is in line with the blade. Move the hand

serving as a hold-down a safe distance from the

blade as the cut nears completion. For very

narrow ripping where a push stick cannot be

used, use a push block or auxiliary fence.

Always push the workpiece completely past the

blade at the end of a cut to minimize the

possibility of a kickback.

Figure 32

When ripping long boards, use a support at the

front of the table, such as a roller stand, and a

support or "tailman" at the rear as shown in

Figure 33.

Have the blade extend about 1/8" above the top

of the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this

point can be hazardous.

Figure 33

Crosscutting

Crosscutting is where the workpiece (A, Fig. 34)

is fed cross grain into the saw blade using the

miter gauge (B, Fig. 34) to support and position

the workpiece.

To improve the effectiveness of the miter gauge

in crosscutting, mount an auxiliary wooden

extension face (C, Fig, 34) with a glued-on strip

of sandpaper (D, Fig. 34) to the miter gauge.

Figure 34

Crosscutting should never be done freehand nor

should the fence be used as an end stop unless

an auxiliary block is clamped to the front of the

blade area such that the cutoff piece comes free

of the block before cutting starts (Figure 35).

Figure 35

Length stops should not be used on the free end

of the workpiece in the cutoff area.

Do not crosscut workpieces shorter than 6".

Before starting a cut, be sure the miter gauge is

securely clamped at the desired angle. Hold the

workpiece firmly against the table and back

against the miter gauge. Always use the saw

guard and splitter and make sure the splitter is

properly aligned.

For 90 degree crosscutting, most operators

prefer to use the left-hand miter gauge slot.

When using it in this position, hold the workpiece

against the gauge with the left hand and use the

right hand to advance the workpiece. When

using the right hand slot for miter and compound

crosscutting so that the blade tilts away from the

gauge, the hand positions are reversed.

When using the miter gauge, the workpiece

must be held firmly and advanced smoothly at a

slow rate. If the workpiece is not held firmly, it

can vibrate causing it to bind on the blade and

dull the saw teeth.

Provide auxiliary support for any workpiece

extending beyond the table top with a tendency

to sag and lift up off the table.

Have the blade extend about 1/8" above the top

of the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this

point can be hazardous.

Bevel and Miter Operations

Bevel Cut – A bevel cut is a special type of

operation where the saw blade is tilted at an

angle less than 90 degrees to the table top

(Figure 36). Operations are performed in the

same manner as ripping or crosscutting except

the fence or miter gauge should be used on the

right-hand side of the saw blade to provide

added safety in avoiding a binding action

between the saw blade and the table top. When

beveling with the miter gauge, the workpiece

must be held firmly to prevent creeping.

Figure 36

Crosscut – Crosscuts made at an angle to the

edge of the workpiece are called miters

(Figure 37). Set the miter gauge at the required

angle, lock the miter gauge, and make the cut

the same as a normal crosscut except the

workpiece must be held extra firmly to prevent

creeping.

Note: When making compound miters (with

blade tilted) use the miter gauge in the right

hand slot to provide more hand clearance and

safety.

Have the blade extend only 1/8" above the top of

the workpiece. Exposing the blade above this

point can be hazardous.

Figure 37

Dado Cutting – Dadoing is cutting a wide

groove into a workpiece or cutting a rabbet

along the edge of a workpiece. A dado insert,

shown in Figure 38, is necessary for this type of

operation.

Do not use the standard table

insert for dadoing operations.

Figure 38

The process of cutting 1/8" to 1/2" grooves in

workpieces is accomplished by the use of a

stacked dado blade set or an adjustable type

blade mounted on the saw arbor. By using

various combinations of the stacked dado

blades, or properly setting the dial on an

adjustable blade, an accurate width dado can be

made. This is very useful for shelving, making

joints, tenoning, etc. The guard, splitter, and

anti-kickback pawls supplied with the saw

should be used for all cutting operations where

they can be used. When performing operations

where the guard can not be used, as in some

dadoing operations, alternative safety

precautions should be taken. These include

push sticks, feather boards, filler pieces, fixtures,

jigs and any other appropriate device that can

be utilized to keep operator's hands away from

the blade. Upon completion of the operation

requiring removal of the guard, the entire guard

assembly must be placed back on the machine

in its proper working order.

Never use a dado head in a

tilted position. Never operate the saw without

the blade guard, splitter and anti-kickback

pawls for operations where they can be

used.

Dust Collection

If your saw is equipped with a dust shroud, a

dust collection or vacuum system (not included)

should be used during operation. The port on

the dust shroud can accommodate 2.5-inch or

4-inch hoses (Figure 39).

The dust shroud should be checked and cleaned

often to remove dust and chips in order to

prevent blockage from buildup.

Figure 39

Safety Devices

Feather Board

The feather board (Figure 40) should be made

of straight grain hardwood approximately 1" thick

and 4" to 8" wide depending on the size of the

machine. The length is developed in accordance

with intended use. Feather boards can be

fastened to the table or rip fence by use of

C-clamps. If this method of fastening is used,

provide slots in the feather board for adjustment.

(The illustration shows a method of attaching

and use of the feather board as a vertical comb.

The horizontal application is essentially the

same except that the attachment is to the table

top.)

Figure 40

Push Stick

A push stick is provided with this saw and

should be used as an added level of safety for

the operator.

Filler Piece

A filler piece (Figure 41) is necessary for narrow

ripping and permits the blade guard to remain on

the machine. It also provides space for the safe

use of a push stick.

Figure 41 – Filler Piece
