INSTALLATION

Positioning table saw (Fig. 1 - 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 leaves enough room to easily
handle the size of your workpieces. The table saw should
be secured with four screws or bolts to the work bench or
table saw stand using the holes provided in the bottom of
the table saw. When securing the table saw on the work
bench, make sure that there is an opening in the top of the
work bench the same size as the opening in the bottom of
the table saw so the sawdust can drop through.
If during operation there is any tendency for the table saw
to tip over, slide or move, the work bench or table saw
stand should be secured to the floor.
Storing accessories (Fig. 4 & 5)
Push stick, Triangular rule, blade and wrenches can be
stored on the left side of the base and the rip fence and
miter gauge can be stored at the right side of the base.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the
tool.
Adjusting the depth of cut (Fig. 6)
The depth of cut may be adjusted by turning the handle.
Turn the handle clockwise to raise the blade or
counterclockwise to lower it.
NOTE:
• Use a shallow depth setting when cutting thin materials
in order to obtain a cleaner cut.
Adjusting the bevel angle (Fig. 7)
Loosen the lock lever counterclockwise and turn the
handwheel until the desired angle (0° - 45°) is obtained.
The bevel angle is indicated by the arrow pointer.
After obtaining the desired angle, tighten the lock lever
clockwise to secure the adjustment.
CAUTION:
• After adjusting the bevel angle, be sure to tighten the
lock lever securely.
Adjusting positive stops (Fig. 8 & 9)
The tool is equipped with positive stops at 90° and 45° to
the table surface. To check and adjust the positive stops,
proceed as follows:
Move the handwheel as far as possible by turning it. Place
a triangular rule on the table and check to see if the blade
is at 90° or 45° to the table surface. If the blade is at an
angle shown in Fig. A, turn the adjusting screws
clockwise; if it is at an angle shown in Fig. B, turn the
10
adjusting screws counterclockwise to adjust the positive
stops.
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. (Fig. 10)
