To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, the
Blade Guard MUST be in place when making a through cut.
1. Before installing the Blade Guard Assembly, make sure the
riving knife is raised to the thru-cut position. While holding
the Blade Guard Assembly

in a vertical position, hook
the Locating Pin

at the back end of the Blade Guard
Assembly into the slot at the back edge of the Riving Knife.
See Figure 14.

Assembly are parallel to the Table see Figure 15.
3. See Figure 16 (next page). While holding down on the
front of the support arms

Guard Lock Tab

down until it snaps into the locked
position. Check to make sure the Guard is locked onto the
Riving Knife by pulling on the Guard. If the Guard is not
locked, the Blade Guard Lock Tab

will ip up to the
unlocked position.
If the Support Arm
D
of the Blade Guard
Assembly is not parallel to the Table, the Riving Knife is not in the
raised (through cut) position. Remove Blade Guard Assembly and
Anti-Kickback pawls and raise Riving Knife, then reinstall the Anti-
Kickback pawls and the Blade Guard Assembly.
4. Raise and lower each side of the Blade Guard to verify free
movement of the Guard System. Be sure the Guard System
can be raised enough to clear your workpiece.
