Non-Through-Compound Mitering
This is a combination of non-through-bevel crosscutting and non-through-mitering. Follow the
instructions for both non-through-bevel crosscutting and non-through-mitering.
Dust Collection (Fig. A, X)
This table saw is equipped with a guard dust collection port
14
and a dust collection port
13
.
For best results, connect a vacuum to the port at the rear of the saw and on the guard using a Y
connector. The Y connector is available as an accessory at additional cost. Refer toAccessories.
NOTICE: Care should be taken to position hoses to not interfere with cuttingoperation.

WARNING: To prevent accidental start up, disconnect it from power source before cleaning
out dust collectionsystem.
1. Turn the saw on its side, so the bottom, open part of the unit isaccessible.
2. Open the dust access door
53
shown by removing 2 screws
54
and detaching the door.
Clean out the excess dust, and re-attach door, securing it with thescrews.

Motor Overload and Power Loss Reset Switch
If power is interrupted by a circuit breaker trip, or power is lost, the saw contains a power loss
reset switch feature that will automatically reset to OFF position.
Circuit breaker overload is often the result of a dull blade. Change your blade on a regular basis to
avoid tripping your breaker. Disconnect the saw from power source and check your blade before
re-setting the circuit breaker and continuing to saw.
Lubrication (Fig. Y)
1. All motor bearings are permanently lubricated at the factory and no additional lubrication
isneeded.
2. The height adjustment screw may require periodic cleaning and lubrication. If you have
difficulty raising or lowering the blade:
a. Unplug the saw.
b. Turn the saw on its side, so the bottom, open part of the unit isaccessible.
c. Clean and lubricate the height adjustment screw threads
55
on the underside of this saw
with general purpose grease. Refer to FigureY.
Storage (Fig. A, Z)
1. Attach push stick
20
tofence.
2. Depress the stem on the anti-kickback assembly
12
to allow the assembly to slide from the
riving knifeslot.
3. Position anti-kickback assembly into storage as shown. While depressing stem, slide the anti-
kickback assembly across the storage bracket and release pin to lock intoplace.
4. Remove blade guard assembly
11
. Refer to Installing/Removing the Blade Guard
Assembly and Riving Knife. Place blade guard assembly into holder as shown, then turn lock
1/4 turn to lock inplace.
5. Slide closed end of blade wrenches
19
into catch then secure in place with wingnut.
6. Insert guide bar of miter gauge
10
into pocket until it bottomsout.
7. Non-through-cutting riving knife
21
can be installed on the saw (working position) or stored
along with the blade guard assembly as shown.
8. To store fence
16
, snap work support in stored position. Remove fence from rails. Reattach
fence upside down on left side of saw. Pivot fence lock latches tosecure.

Transporting (Fig.A)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect
it from power source before transporting the saw. An accidental start-up can
causeinjury.


Accessory Construction for Alternative Operation Methods
(If not equipped with narrow ripping fence)
Narrow Rip Auxiliary Fence (Fig. AA–CC)
The narrow rip auxiliary fence should be used for a rip measuring 2" (51mm) or narrower. This
fence will allow the guard to remain on the saw when completing narrow ripping. This fence will
provide ample space for proper use of a push block (
59
, see Push Block).
1. Follow the diagram in Figure AA to construct the narrow rip auxiliary fence
56
.
NOTE: The length should be cut to fit the length
57
of the saw table top and sides
58
must
beparallel.
