The tool is shipped from the factory with the saw blade and blade guard not in the installed condition. Assemble as follows: CAUTION: • Always unplug the tool before assembly .

8 Installing blade guar d CAUTION: • Before installing the blade guard, adjust the depth of cut to its maximum elevation. Insert the spreader between the blade guard mounting portion (stay) and the pressure plate. T ighten the hex bolts (A) with the offset wrench.
9 P ositioning table saw 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 leaves enough room to easi- ly handle the size of your workpieces.
10 Adjusting depth of cut The depth of cut may be adjusted by turning the han- dle. T urn the handle clockwise to raise the blade or counterclockwise to lower it. NOTE: • Use a shallow depth setting when cutting thin materi- als in order to obtain a cleaner cut.
After adjusting the positive stops, set the blade at 90 ° to the table surface. Then adjust the arrow pointer so that its right edge is aligned to the 0 ° graduation. Installing and adjusting rip fence Raise the grip of the rip fence. Install the rip fence on the table so that the fence holder engages with the guide rail.
12 CAUTION: • Always grasp the striped portion of the wrench when tightening the hex bolts. If you tighten the hex bolts while grasping the wrench further than the striped por- tion, the hex bolts may be damaged and/or an injury to your hand may result.
When operating the switch lever , it is convenient to view it through the window area in the table. CAUTION: • When not using the tool, remove the key and store it in a secure place.
14 Push stick A push stick can be easily made from a piece of ply- wood 19 mm (3/4 ” ) to 25 mm (1 ” ) thick. Cut out the hatched area on the stick and smooth edges with a file. (H) dimension should be less than 12.7 mm (1/2 ” ) so as to be thinner than the workpiece.
W ood facing (rip fence) A wood facing should be used for operations when the blade comes close to the rip fence. Wood facing for the rip fence should be the same size as the rip fence. Make sure the bottom of facing is flush with the table surface. Crosscutting CAUTION: • When making a crosscut, remove the rip fence from the table.
16 A uxiliary wood facing (miter gauge) T o prevent a long board from wobbling, fit the miter gauge with an auxiliary fence board. Fasten with bolts/nuts after drilling holes, but fasteners must not protrude from the face board. Ripping CAUTION: • When ripping, remove the miter gauge from the table.
3. T urn the tool on and gently feed the workpiece into the blade along with the rip fence. (1) When the width of rip is 150 mm (6 ” ) and wider , carefully use your right hand to feed the work- piece. Use your left hand to hold the workpiece in position against the rip fence.
