WARNING: To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualied service

technician. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or BATTERY- operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduces risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk or electric shock.

When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduce the risk of electric shock.

If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or BATTERY pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and igore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this

power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.5

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the BATTERY pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.

BATTERY tool use and care a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of BATTERY pack may create a risk of fire when used with another BATTERY pack.

Use power tools only with specifically designated BATTERY packs. Use of any other BATTERY packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

When BATTERY pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the BATTERY terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the BATTERY; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the BATTERY may cause irritation or burns.

Do not use a BATTERY pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, EXPLOSION or risk of injury.

Do not expose a BATTERY pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.

Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the BATTERY pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the BATTERY and increase the risk of fire.

Service a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Never service damaged BATTERY packs. Service of BATTERY packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

Guarding related warnings a) Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working order and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be repaired or replaced.

Always use saw blade guard, riving knife and anti-kickback device for every through- cutting operation. For through-cutting operations where the saw blade cuts completely through the thickness of the workpiece, the guard and other safety devices help reduce the risk of injury.

Immediately reattach the guarding system after completing an operation (such as rabbeting, dadoing or resawing cuts) which requires removal of the guard, riving knife and/or anti-kickback device. The guard, riving knife, and anti-kickback device help to reduce the risk of injury. English Safety instructions for table saws6 d) Make sure the saw blade is not contacting the guard, riving knife or the workpiece before the switch is turned on. Inadvertent contact of these items with the saw blade could cause a hazardous condition.

Adjust the riving knife as described in this instruction manual. Incorrect spacing, positioning and alignment can make the riving kinfe ineffective in reducing the likelihood of kickback.

For the riving knife and anti-kickback device to work, they must be engaged in the workpiece. The riving knife and anti-kickback device are ineffective when cutting workpieces that are too short to be engaged with the riving knife and anti-kickback device. Under these conditions a kickback cannot be prevented by the riving knife and anti-kickback device.

Use the appropriate saw blade for the riving knife. For the riving knife to function properly, the saw blade diameter must match the appropriate riving knife and the body of the saw blade must be thinner than the thickness of the riving knife and the cutting width of the saw blade must be wider than the thickness of the riving knife.

Cutting procedures warnings a) DANGER: Never place your fingers or hands in the vicinity or in line with the saw blade. A moment of inattention or a slip could direct your hand towards the saw blade and result in serious personal injury.

Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cutter only against the direction of rotation. Feeding the workpiece in the same direction that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.

Never use the miter gauge to feed the workpiece when ripping and do not use the rip fence as a length stop when cross cutting with the miter gauge. Guiding the workpiece with rip fence and the miter guage at the same time increases the likelihood of saw blade binding and kickback.

When ripping, always apply the workpiece feeding force between the fence and the saw blade. Use a push stick when the distance between the fence and the saw blade is less than 150 mm, and use a push block when this distance is less than 50 mm. “Work helping” devices will keep your hand at a safe distance from the saw blade.

Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions. This push stick provides sufficient distance of the hand from the saw blade.

Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip into the saw blade.

Do not perform any operation “freehand”. Always use either the rip fence or the miter gauge to position and guide the workpiece. “Freehand” means using your hands to support or guide the workpiece, in lieu of a rip fence or miter gauge. Freehand sawing leads to misalignment, binding and kickback.

Never reach around or over a rotating saw blade. Reaching for a workpiece may lead to accidental contact with the moving saw blade.

Provide auxiliary workpiece support to the rear and/or sides of the saw table for long and/or wide workpieces to keep them level. A long and/or wide workpiece has a tendency to pivot on the table’s edge, causing loss of control, saw blade binding and kickback.

Feed workpiece at an even pace. Do not bend or twist the workpiece. If jamming occurs, turn the tool off immediately, unplug the tool then clear the jam. Jamming the saw blade by the workpiece can cause kickback or stall the motor.

Do not remove pieces of cut-off material while the saw is running. The material may become trapped between the fence or inside the saw blade guard and the saw blade pulling your fingers into the saw blade. Turn the saw off and wait until the saw blade stops before removing material.

Use an auxiliary fence in contact with the table top when ripping workpieces less than 2 mm thick. A thin workpiece may wedge under the rip fence and create a kickback.

Kickback causes and related warnings Kickback is a sudden reaction of the workpiece due to a pinched, jammed saw blade or misaligned line of cut in the workpiece with respect to the saw blade or when a part of the workpiece binds between the saw blade and the rip fence or other fixed object. Most frequently during kickback, the workpiece is lifted from the table by the rear portion of the saw blade and is propelled towards the operator. Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence. Kickback may propel the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with the saw blade.

Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or support the workpiece. Accidental English7 English

WARNING: Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may

result in electric shock, and/or serious personal injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. contact with the saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.

Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the workpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.

Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the saw blade and create kickback.

Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non-through cuts such as rabbeting, dadoing or resawing cuts. A featherboard helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.

Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

Support large panels to minimise the risk of saw blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel overhanging the table top.

Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight edge to guide it with a miter gauge or along the fence. A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is unstable and causes misalignment of the kerf with the saw blade, binding and kickback.

Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or more pieces and cause kickback.

When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the workpiece, centre the saw blade in the kerf so that the saw teeth are not engaged in the material. If the saw blade binds, it may lift up the workpiece and cause kickback when the saw is restarted.

Keep saw baldes clean, sharp, and with sufficient set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with cracked or broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades minimise binding, stalling and kickback.

Table saw operating procedure warnings a) Turn off the table saw and disconnect the battery pack when removing the table insert, changing the saw blade or making adjustments to the riving knife, anti-kickback device or blade gurad, and when the machine is left unattended. Precautionary measures will avoid accidents.

Never leave the table saw running unattended. Turn it off and don’t leave the tool until it comes to a complete stop. An unattended running saw is an uncontrolled hazard.

Locate the table saw in a well-lit and level area where you can maintain good footing and balance. It should be installed in an area that provides enough room to easily handle the size of your workpiece. Cramped, dark areas, and uneven slippery floors invite accidents.

Frequently clean and remove sawdust from under the saw table and/or the dust collection device. Accumulated sawdust is combustible and may self-ignite.

The table saw must be secured. A Table saw that is not properly secured may move or tip over.

Remove tools, wood scrapes, etc. from the table before the table saw is turned on. Distraction or a potential jam can be dangerous.

Always use saw blades with correct size and shape (diamond versus round) of arbour holes. Saw blades that do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will run off-centre, causing loss of control.

Never use damaged or incorrect saw blade mounting means such as flanges, saw blade washers, bolts or nuts. These mounting means were specially designed for your saw, for safe operation and optimum performance.

Never stand on the table saw, do not use it as a stepping stool. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is accidentally contacted.

Make sure that the saw blade is installed to rotate in the proper direction. Do not use grinding wheels, wire brushes, or abrasive wheels on a table saw. Improper saw blade installation or use of accessories not recommended may cause serious injury.8 English

• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in good working order. Blade guard must be in place for all through cut operations. Never operate the saw without the blade guard in place for any cut which does not require it to be removed. Make sure the blade guard is operating properly before each use. A guard that is loose, damaged, or is not functioning correctly must be repaired or replaced.

• DO NOT leave tools or pieces of wood on the saw while it is in operation. Distraction or a potential jam can be dangerous.

• KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All visitors should wear safety glasses and be kept a safe distance from work area. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord while operating.

• GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly and workpiece is driven back towards the operator. It can pull your hand into the blade resulting in serious personal injury. Stay out of blade path and turn switch off immediately if blade binds or stalls.

• USE RIP FENCE. Always use a fence or straight edge guide when ripping.

• REMOVE ALL FENCES AND AUXILIARY TABLES before transporting saw. Failure to do so can result in an accident causing possible serious personal injury.

• NEVER PLACE ARMS OR HANDS IN LINE WITH THE PATH OF THE CUTTING BLADE.

• ALWAYS lock the rip fence and secure bevel adjustment firmly before cutting.

• ALWAYS SECURE WORK firmly against the rip fence or miter gauge.

• ALWAYS USE A PUSH STICK. A push stick is a device used to push a workpiece through the blade instead of using your hands. Size and shape can vary but the push stick must always be narrower than the workpiece to prevent the push stick from contacting the saw blade. When ripping narrow stock, always use a push stick, so your hand does not come close to the saw blade. Use a featherboard and push blocks for non-through cuts.

• NEVER reach behind, over, or within three inches of the blade or cutter with either hand for any reason.

• MOVE THE RIP FENCE out of the way when cross cutting.

• DO NOT USE THE MITER GAUGE AND RIP FENCE during the same operation.

This is a temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries 2 – 3 times. CAUTION

• When the battery charger has been continuosly used, the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.

• If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has been left for a long time in a location subject to direct sunlight or because the battery has just been used, the charge indicator lamp of the charger lights for 0.3 seconds, does not light for 0.3 seconds (off for 0.3 seconds). In such a case, first let the battery cool, then start charging.

• When the charge indicator lamp flickers (at 0.2–second intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in the charger’s battery installation hole. If there are no foreign objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service Center. English Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries, etc. (1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely exhausted. When you feel that the power of the tool becomes weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric current, the battery may be damaged and its life will become shorter. (2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures. A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and the battery life will be shortened.

WARNING: ALWAYS make sure your workpiece is not in contact with the blade before operating the

switch to start the saw. Blade contact could result in kickback or thrown workpiece.

WARNING: DO NOT use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning

could result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Before installing the battery or adapter in the table saw or operating the saw, always

inspect the blade guard assembly and riving knife for proper operation alignment and clearance with saw blade.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack

or adapter before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

WARNING: Before using the saw, verify the following each and every time:

• ALWAYS wear proper eye, hearing and respiratory equipment.

• Blade is securely tightened.

• Bevel angle and fence rails locking lever is locked.

• If ripping, ensure that rip fence locking lever is locked and that the fence is parallel to the blade.

• If crosscutting, miter gauge lock knob is securely tightened.

• The blade guard assembly is properly attached and the anti-kickback assembly is functioning.

DANGER: Feed the workpiece into the saw blade or cutter only against the direction of rotation.

Feeding the workpiece in the same direction that the saw blade is rotating above the table may result in the workpiece, and your hand, being pulled into the saw blade.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, have push stick ready to use before starting

WARNING: Ripping or crosscutting may cause saw to tip over while operating. Make sure saw is

securely mounted to a stable surface.

WARNING: Never use the fence and miter gauge together. This may cause a kickback condition and

injure the operator.

WARNING: The proper table insert must be in place at all times to reduce the risk of a thrown

workpiece and possible injury.

WARNING: If this saw makes an unfamiliar noise or if it vibrates excessively, cease operating

immediately, turn unit off and remove the battery pack or adapter until the problem has been located and corrected. Contact a metabo HPT factory service center or a metabo HPT authorized service center if the problem cannot be found.

WARNING: When ripping, always use the fence to provide a guide for the material and blade guard

assembly to protect against a kickback situation. WARNING: Never perform any cutting operation free hand. Never perform plunge cutting.You can use this tool for the purposes listed below:

• Straight-line cutting operations, such as crosscutting, ripping, mitering, beveling, and compound cutting.

• Cabinet making and woodworking. NOTE: This table saw is designed to cut wood and wood composition products only. Never cut metals, cement board, or masonry. APPLICATIONS Kickback can occur when the blade stalls or binds, causing the workpiece to be kicked back toward the operator with great force and speed. If your hands are near the saw blade, they may be jerked loose from the workpiece and come into contact with the blade. Obviously, kickback can cause serious injury, and it is well worth using precautions to avoid the risks. Kickback can be caused by any action that pinches the blade in the wood, such as the following:

• Making a cut with incorrect blade depth.

• Sawing into knots or nails in the work piece.

• Twisting the wood while making a cut.

• Failing to support the workpiece.

• Cutting warped or wet lumber.

• Using the wrong blade for the type of cut.

• Not following correct operating procedures.

• Failing to use the anti-kickback pawls.

• Cutting with a dull, gummed-up, or improperly set blade.

WARNING: Never operate the saw with the blade guard removed

except for dado and other non-through cuts. Reinstall the blade guard immediately after finishing any non- through cut operations which require removal of the blade guard. Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury. NOTE: Kickback can be avoided by taking following proper precautions:

• Never stand directly in line with the saw blade. Always position your body on the same side of the saw blade as the fence. Kickback may propel the workpiece at high velocity towards anyone standing in front and in line with the saw blade.

• Never reach over or in back of the saw blade to pull or to support the workpiece. Accidental contact with the saw blade may occur or kickback may drag your fingers into the saw blade.

• Never hold and press the workpiece that is being cut off against the rotating saw blade. Pressing the

• The upper portion of the blade projects up through the table and is surrounded by an insert called the table insert. The height of the blade is set with a height adjusting handle on the height/bevel adjusting handwheel. Detailed instructions are provided in this manual for the basic cut: cross cuts, miter cuts, bevel cuts, and compound cuts.

• The rip fence is used to position workpiece for lengthwise cuts and used for extension table for large workpiece cuts.

• It’s very important to use the blade guard assembly for all through-cut sawing operations. The blade guard assembly includes: riving knife, anti-kickback pawls, and blade guard. OPERATING COMPONENTSworkpiece being cut off against the saw blade will create a binding condition and kickback.
• Align the fence to be parallel with the saw blade. A misaligned fence will pinch the workpiece against the saw blade and create kickback.
• Use a featherboard to guide the workpiece against the table and fence when making non-through cuts such as rabbets, dado cuts. A featherboard helps to control the workpiece in the event of a kickback.

• Use extra caution when making a cut into blind areas of assembled workpieces. The protruding saw blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
• Support large panels to minimise the risk of saw blade pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Support(s) must be placed under all portions of the panel overhanging the table top.
• Use extra caution when cutting a workpiece that is twisted, knotted, warped or does not have a straight edge to guide it with a miter gauge or along the fence. A warped, knotted, or twisted workpiece is unstable and causes misalignment of the kerf with the saw blade, binding and kickback.
• Never cut more than one workpiece, stacked vertically or horizontally. The saw blade could pick up one or more pieces and cause kickback.
• When restarting the saw with the saw blade in the workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf so that the saw teeth are not engaged in the material. If the saw blade binds, it may lift up the workpiece and cause kickback when the saw is restarted.
• Keep saw blades clean, sharp, and with sufficient set. Never use warped saw blades or saw blades with cracked or broken teeth. Sharp and properly set saw blades minimise binding, stalling and kickback.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, be sure the switch is in the OFF position before installing the

battery or adapter.

EnglishFig. 21WARNING: Use only the push stick provided by the manufacturer or constructed in accordance with the instructions. This push stick provides sufficient distance of the hand from the saw blade.

WARNING: Never use a damaged or cut push stick. A damaged push stick may break causing your hand to slip

into the saw blade.Cutting aids such as push stick, push blocks, featherboards and jigs should be used where appropriate tomaximize your ability to control your workpiece for a safe and precise cut. When making non-through cutsor ripping narrow stock, always use a push stick, push block, featherboard and/or jig set-up so hands donot come within 6 inches of blade.A push stick is included with your saw. Additional push sticks and other cutting aids can be purchased separately at any authorized dealer. Instructions for making cutting aids can be found at on page 44-46. CUTTING AIDS Push stick can be purchased or made to securely hold down the workpiece against the table when makingnon-through cuts or ripping narrow stock. The stick must be narrower than the workpiece, with a 90° notchin one end and shaped for a grip on the other end.PUSH STICKS EnglishFig. 22

• In order to operate your table saw safely, you must use a push stick whenever the size or shape of the workpiece would otherwise cause your hands to be within 6 in. (152 mm) of the saw blade or other cutter. A push stick is included with this saw.

• No special wood is needed to make additional push-sticks as long as it’s sturdy and long enough. A enough length with a notch that fits against the edge of the workpiece to prevent slipping. It’s a good idea to have several push sticks of the same length with different size notches for different workpiece thicknesses.

• The shape can vary to suit your own needs as long as it performs its intended function of keeping your hands away from the blade. Fig. 23a Included standard push stick A featherboard is a device used to help control the workpiece by guiding it securely against the table or rip fence. Featherboards are especially useful when ripping small workpieces and for completing non-through cuts. The end is angled with a series of narrow slots to give a friction hold on the workpiece. It is locked in place on the table with a C-clamp. FEATHERBOARDS Push blocks are blocks used to securely hold down the workpiece against the table. They include some gripping surface or handle to hold the block. Any screws running through the underside of the block to fasten the handle should be recessed in order to avoid contact with the workpiece. PUSH BLOCKS HOW TO MAKE AN ADDITIONAL PUSH STICK (FIG. 23a-23b)

WARNING: When using featherboard, it must be mounted in front of the blade and used only against the uncut

portion of the workpiece to avoid a kickback that could result in serious injury.

• Attach auxiliary fence (A) to the narrow fence (B); place wood against narrow fence and firmly on the working table.

• From back side of rip fence, secure wood to fence using wood screws (C) (not included). An auxiliary fence is a device used to close the gap between rip fence and working table. ALWAYS use an auxiliary fence when ripping material 1/8 in. (3 mm) or thinner to prevent stock from slipping under fence. HOW TO MAKE AN AUXILIARY FENCE (FIG. 26) THROUGH CUTS

WARNING: Always make sure the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls are in place and working properly when

making these cuts to avoid possible injury.

WARNING: Use extra caution when cutting wood products having slippery surface as the anti-kickback pawls

may not always be effective.

WARNING: DO NOT use blades rated less than the speed of this tool. Failure to heed this warning could result

WARNING: To avoid kickback, make sure one side of the workpiece is securely against the rip fence during

any rip cut, and hold the workpiece firmly against the miter gauge during any miter cut.

WARNING: DO NOT attempt compound miter cuts, with blade beveled and miter fence angled, until you are

thoroughly familiar with the basic cuts and understand how to avoid kickback. WARNING: DO NOT attempt to make any cuts not covered here.

MAKING A LARGE PANEL CUT

WARNING: Make sure that the rip fence is on the right side of the blade to avoid trapping the wood and causing

kickback. Kick-back and serious personal injury will result if the rip fence is placed to the left of the blade.The use of a non-through cut is essential to cutting grooves and rabbets and dados. Non-through cuts can be made using a standard blade having a diameter of 10 inches, or a dado blade up to 13/16 inches wide with a diameter of 8 inches. Non-through cuts are the only type of cuts that should be made without the blade guard assembly installed. Make sure the blade guard assembly is reinstalled upon completion of this type of cut.

DADOS AND OTER NON-THROUGH CUTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury when making non-through cuts, follow all applicable warnings

and instructions listed below in addition to those listed above for the relevant through cut.

WARNING: When making a non-through cut, blade is covered by workpiece during most of cut. Be alert to

exposed blade at start and finish of every cut to avoid the risk of personal injury.

WARNING: Never feed wood with hands when making any non-through cuts such as rabbets. To avoid personal

injury, always use push blocks, push sticks, and/or featherboards.

WARNING: Read the appropriate section which describes the type of cut in addition to this section on non-through

cuts. For example, if your non-through cut is a straight cross cut, read and understand the section on straight cross cuts before proceeding.

WARNING: Once all dado and non-through cuts are completed, remove the battery pack or adapter and reinstall

riving knife in uppermost position. Install anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

WARNING: Always use push blocks, push sticks, and/or featherboards when making dado cuts to avoid the

risk of serious injury. Dado blades are stacked blades that can be used when making through cut slots in a workpiece, or the non-through cuts described above. Dado blades require a special table insert. Dado blades and table inserts are all sold separately.

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after making any adjustment which

requires it to be removed. Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury. ADJUSTMENTS The table saw has been adjusted at the factory for making very accurate cuts. However, some components might have been jarred out of alignment during shipping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment will probably become necessary due to wear. Carefully check alignment with a framing square before beginning adjustments to confirm whether they are necessary. Use test cuts after completing adjustments to avoid damaging workpiece.

WARNING: Rip fence must be aligned to blade so that wood does not bind, resulting in kickback.

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.

WARNING: Make sure the blade guard is reinstalled immediately after making any adjustment which

requires it to be removed. Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury. CAUTION: Remove the battery pack or adapter and turn the switch off. Remove blade guard and anti-kickback pawls. Raise the blade by turning height adjusting knob.

WARNING: The adjustment must be correct. If it is not, kickback could result in a serious injury and

inability to make accurate cuts. TO CHECK/ADJUST:

• Place the framing square (A) beside the blade (B), and unlock the fence rails locking lever (C) to move the rip fence (D) up to the square.

• Lock the fence rails locking lever (C) and note the measurement on the rip scale.

• Move the fence back and rotate the framing square (A) 180° to check the other side.

• If the two measurements are not the same, loosen the position screws (E) on the extension poles and then align it.

• Retighten the position screws with 4 mm hex key (supplied). Recheck alignment after position screws are retightened.

• Reinstall the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.

• Make two or three test cuts using scrap wood. If the cuts are not true, repeat the process. DO NOT loosen any position screws for this adjustment until alignment has been checked with a square to be sure adjustment are necessary. Once screws are loosened, items must be reset.

English Rip fence and blade alignment is set at factory and in most cases will not need to be adjusted. However, the alignment should always be checked after installing blade or before making cuts, and can be adjusted if necessary. If rip fence is out of alignment with blade, adjustment is needed. ALIGNING RIP FENCE TO BLADE (FIG. 30a-30b)A

• Turn power off and remove the battery pack or adapter.

• Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the height adjusting knob clockwise.

• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Using a framing square (A), set the blade (B) to exactly 90°.

• If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 90°, loosen the 90° stop set screw (C) (located at the left of the bevel track on the front), and then adjust it to 90°.

• With the blade set at 90°, slowly turn the 90° stop set screw (C) until you feel resistance. Bevel the blade away from 90° a little, and then back to the stop.

• Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment as necessary until the blade stops at 90°. This saw has positive stops that will quickly position the saw blade at 90° (0°) or 45° to the table. Angle settings of saw have been set at the factory and, unless damaged in shipping, should not require setting during assembly. After extensive use, they may need to be checked. BEVEL ADJUSTMENT (FIG. 31a-31d)

CAUTION: For easy of use, bevel adjust should stop at 45° and 90°.

WARNING: Make sure the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls are reinstalled immediately after

making any adjustment which requires it to be removed. Failure to heed this instruction could result in serious personal injury. TO CHECK 45° BEVEL (Fig. 31c-31d):

• Turn power off and remove the battery pack or adapter.

• Raise the blade to the maximum height by turning the height adjusting knob clockwise.

• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard.

• Using a triangle square (D), set the blade (B) to exactly 45°.

• If the blade stops bevelling before it gets to 45°, loosen the 45° stop set screw (E) (located at the right of the bevel track on the front), and then adjust it to 45°.

• With the blade set at 45°, slowly turn the 45° stop set screw (E) until you feel resistance. Bevel the blade away from 45° a little, and then back to the stop.

• Re-measure the angle and repeat the stop adjustment as necessary until the blade stops at 45°.

• Unlock the fence rails lock lever (A).

• Set the blade at 0° bevel and move the fence (B) in until it touches the blade.

• Lock the fence rails lock lever (A).

• Loosen the rip fence scale indicator screws (C, D) and set the red line (E) on the rip fence scale indicator (F) to read zero.

• Retighten the rip fence indicator screws (C, D). The top rip scale reads correctly only when the fence is mounted on the right side of the blade and is in position 1 (G) (for 0 to 27 in. ripping) [not the 35 in. position]. The bottom scale reads correctly only when the fence is mounted on the right side of the blade and in position 2 (H) (for 8 in. to 35 in. ripping). ADJUSTING RIP FENCE SCALE INDICATOR (FIG. 32)B

EnglishFig. 32Fig. 33• With blade perpendicular to table, loosen screw (A).• Set the bevel indicator (B) to align with 0° on bevel scale (C).• Retighten screw (A).Adjust the red line on the bevel indicator if it is not aligned with zero when the blade is perpendicular tothe table.
