ADJUSTING TILT GAGE _USing
saw blade at
an accurate square, set
right angles to table top. Then adjust
the pointer on the tilt gage (C, fig. 3)
to "0".
ADJUSTING MITER GAGE SCALE
--Using an accurate square, block the
miter gage at the square position. Make
a trial cut on a fairly wide board, then
• check this cut with the square. If cut
is accurate, set the pointer on the miter
gage scale (J, fig. 3) to "90".
ADJUSTING FENCE INDICATORS
I With the rip fence o,1 the right side
of the blade set the left indicator (Ke)
No. 80, fi_. 1) to number 2 on the
fence slide gear rack ( Key No. 108, fig.
I). When the fence is moved one inch
to' the right of the blade the left
indicator will read t" etc. When
the rip fence is to the left of the
blade the procedure is the same
except that the right indicator is
used. In other words, always use
the indicator nearest to the blade.
ADJUSTING CAM CLAMP
LEVER--if clamping action of
lever (H, fig. 2) is too tight or
too loose, it can be adjusted by in- _ _ _ ,
creasing or decreasing the effec-
tive length of the rip fence clamp rod (Key No. 78, fig.
1). This is done by readjusting the clamp rod nut (Key
No. 63, fig. 1) on the end of the clamp rod in back of the
fence. When properly adjusted, the clamping lever
should lock in a horizontal position or slightly lower.
Your saw is a fine machine and should be given the best
of care. If kept clean and properly lubricated, it will
gixe many }'ears of trouble-free service.
Both tilt and lift screws are self-cleaning which prevents
clogging or gumming of the threads, as tile sharp thread
ends wipe and clean the gear teeth.
The saw arbor bearings (Key No. 4, fig. J) base been
packed at the factory with the proper lubricant and re-
quire no additional lubrication. Other parts requiring
lubrication should be oiled frequently with SAE No. 20
or rio. 30 Automobile Engine Oil.

Detcription
Tilt screw block, tilt screw threads & tilt nut.
Pivot pin and saw arbor housing guide.
Clamp screw.
All other points Where there is friction between two
or more moving surfaces--or where a sllp fit is
necessary for adjustment purposes.
Special attention should be given to the moving parts
in the rip fence and miter gage.
To prevent the saw table from rusting, it should be
kept covered with a film of our "'Stop Rust" when
not in use- and should be wiped off with a cloth
before using. Treat other unplated and unpainted
parts and surfaces in same manner.
DRESS PROPERLY--Do not wear a
tie or other loose article• Keep long
sleeves down with cuffs fastened; or
wear short sleeves. Use goggles or a
face shield to protect the eyes.
NEVER STOP BEING CAREFUL
One moment of inattention can cost you
a painful injury. Always be alert!
Operation of saw is simple, safe rind
easy--when properly done.
A LOW BLADE IS TIlE SAFEST --
Equally gond cuts ran be made with
the blade elevated to full height, or
raised just enough to clear top of work-
[_iece by approximately 1/4 inch. The
tower position is safer because the blade
SAW I(ERF 4
\
enters the work at an angle more nearly
parallel with the direction of feed, and
there is better opportunity to hold the
work against kickback.
AVOID AWKWARD HAND POSI-
TIONS -- Do not get hands into a po-
sition in which a sudden slip can cause
them to move into the saw blade. Pull
work through from behind blade rather
than push it through with hand in close
quarters; or use a push stick as illus-
trated. Do not attempt freehand cross-
cutting; always use miter gage.
NEVER TWIST WORK--Twisting
work will bind blade and cause a kick-
back.
