Installing the Blade Guard and Splitter

All models
Referring to Figure 6:
If your table saw came with a back support (C), the
blade guard/splitter installation and alignment will
be facilitated by loosening and sliding the back
support away from the table.
1. Loosen the hex nut (G) on the splitter support
bracket (E) to provide sufficient clearance for
the blade guard and splitter assembly (next
step).
2. Take the blade guard and splitter assembly
and slide the tab of the splitter (B and F) on the
screw of the splitter support bracket (E)
between the flat washer (D) and bracket (E).
3. Tighten the hex nut (G) enough to hold the
blade guard and splitter assembly in place.
Adjustment will be required and is described in the
Adjustment section (see Aligning the Blade Guard
and Splitter).

Aligning the Blade Guard and Splitter

All models
Referring to Figures 7 and 8:
1. Raise the blade guard (B) away from the table.
2. Set a straight edge (E), against the saw blade
(F) on the right side as shown. The anti-kick
pawl (D) needs to be lifted momentarily until
the straight edge is placed in position.
Note: The straight edge needs to rest against
the body of the saw blade and not the saw
teeth.
3. With a 10mm wrench, loosen two hex cap
screws (H) securing the splitter bracket (G) and
adjust the splitter (C) sideways until alignment
with the saw blade (F) is achieved.
4. Tighten the hex cap screws (H).
Make sure the splitter (C) is level with the table and
approximately 1/8" above the table. A 1/8" space
allows the blade guard assembly to tilt to a 45º
angle without contacting the table.
If the splitter level needs adjustment:
5. With two 10mm wrenches, loosen the nut and
screw (J) assembly, adjust the splitter (C) to
1/8" above the table. Tighten the hardware.
Use a square to verify that the splitter is
perpendicular to the table surface and adjust if
required.
