Stanley STST1825 - Advanced Cutting Techniques

38 • ENGLISH
Only apply feed pressure to the work-piece between the
blade and the rip fence in order to prevent the work-piece
from binding against the blade and causing kickback.
When ripping boards narrower than 6” (150 mm), use a
push stick to feed the work-piece until it is clear of the
table.
Bevel ripping (See Fig. T)
When bevel ripping material 6” (150 mm) or narrower, use
the rip fence on the right side of the blade only.
Transportation (See Fig. Y)
Use the right side extension, in the extended position,
as a temporary handle to transport the table saw on its
wheels.
Sawdust collection (See Fig. Z)
This table saw is equipped with a removable sawdust
collector. A dust collection system can be attached to the
dust port to help remove sawdust from the work area.
To remove the sawdust collector, simply loosen two nuts
and remove the collector from the saw.
APPLICATIONS
Cutting Tips
1. Make sure the kerf is made on the scrap side of the
measuring line.
2. Cut the wood with the finished side up.
3. Always have a proper support for the wood as it
comes out of the blade.
4. Make a test cut for important cuts.
5. Always use the correct blade depth setting. The top of
the blade teeth should clear the top of the material
 beingcutby1⁄8”(3mm)to1⁄4”(6mm).
6. Inspect the work-piece for knots or nails before
beginning a cut. Remove any loose knots with a hammer.
7. Always use clean, sharp, properly-set blades. Never
make a cut with a dull blade.
8. When making a cut, use steady, even pressure. Never
force a cut.
9. DO NOT cut wet or warped lumber.
10. Always hold your work-piece firmly with both hands or
use a push stick or push block.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any
adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. Inspect tool cords periodically and if
damaged, have repaired by an authorized service facility.
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or
maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in your
power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean
your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store
your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation
slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. If you
see some sparks flashing in the ventilation slots, this is
normal and will not damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Important! To assure product SAFETY and
RELIABILITY, repairs, maintenance and adjustment (other
than those listed in this manual) should be performed
by authorized service centers or other qualified service
personnel, always using identical replacement parts.
