FEATURES
RIVING KNIFE - A removable metal piece of the blade guard
assembly with kickback pawls, slightly thinner than the saw
blade, which helps keep the kerf open and prevent kickback.
When in the through sawing, or “up” position, it is higher than
the saw blade. When in the non-through sawing, or “down”
position, it is below the saw blade teeth.
SWITCH ASSEMBLY - This saw has an easy access switch
assembly located below the front rail. To lock the switch, install
a padlock (not included) through the holes in the switch and
cover. Make certain the switch is inoperable. If the switch
is still operable with the padlock installed, a padlock with
a larger shackle diameter must be used. Store the padlock
key in another location.
OPERATING COMPONENTS
The upper portion of the blade projects up through the table
and is surrounded by an insert called the throat plate. The
height of the blade is set with a handwheel on the front of
the saw. Detailed instructions are provided in the Operation
section of this manual for the basic cuts: cross cuts, miter
cuts, bevel cuts, and compound cuts.
The rip fence is used to position work for lengthwise cuts.
A scale on the front rail shows the distance between the rip
fence and the blade.
It is very important to use the blade guard assembly with
kickback pawls for all through-sawing operations. The blade
guard assembly with kickback pawls includes: riving knife and
blade guard with anti-kickback pawls.
SWITCH ASSEMBLY
See Figure 4.
This saw is equipped with an on/off switch that has a built-in

TO TURN THE SAW OFF:

WARNING:
ALWAYS make sure your workpiece is not in contact with
the blade before operating the switch to start the tool.
Failure to heed this warning may cause the workpiece to
be kicked back toward the operator and result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of accidental starting, always make
sure the top button on the switch is not depressed before
installing the battery.
