6. Do not stand directly in front of the blade in
case of a KICKBACK. Stand to either side of
the blade.
7. Keep your hands clear of the blade and out of
the path of the blade.
8. If the blade stalls or stops while cutting, TURN
SWITCH OFF before attempting to free the
blade.
9. Do not reach over or behind the blade to pull
the work piece through the cut, to support long
or heavy work pieces, to remove small cut-off
pieces of material or FOR ANY OTHER REA-
SON.
10. Do not pick up small pieces of cut-off mate-
rial from the table. REMOVE them by pushing
them OFF the table with a long stick. Other-
wise they could be thrown back at you by the
rear of the blade.
11. Do not remove small pieces of cut-off mate-
rial that may become TRAPPED inside the
blade guard while the saw is RUNNING.
THIS COULD ENDANGER YOUR HANDS or
cause a KICKBACK. Turn the saw OFF and
disconnect power source. After the blade has
stopped turning, lift the guard and remove the
piece.
12. If work piece is warped, place the CONCAVE
side DOWN. This will prevent it from rocking
while it is being ripped.
RIP FENCE AUXILIARY FACING
When using dado cutting accessories, an auxil-
iary facing board should be used. While the saw
already has facing boards attached, they are de-
signed to smooth passage of a work piece along
the fence. They also minimize the chance that in-
cidental contact between the blade and fence will
trigger the Active Response Technology™ Injury
Mitigation System.
The wear plates have been design to be revers-
ible. Blade damage can be minimized by turning
a plate over, or swapping the right plate for the
left.
This will help prevent damage to the aluminum
fence. If they are damaged or if you need thicker
facing, the facing should be made of 3/4 inch
thick wood – Figure 58 shows dimensional plans
to make a facing board to fit this saw.
Parts Required:
• 3/4" thick wood board (solid or plywood) cut to
size
• Three (3) 1/4 x 20 x 3/4" long hex. head ma-
chine screws
1600A009XC 09-15.indb 35
• Three (3) 1/4" Washers
• Three (3) 1/4 x 20 machine nuts
The facing is made to the same height (2-3/4")
as the fence and can work with the blade guard
system in place when moving the fence to con-
tact the blade. The taller facing design (4-1/4") is
optional and can be used for clamping on other
accessories.
Cut the board to the size shown, drill through
9/32" holes, then counter-sink each hole (down
3/8 inch) using a 3/4 inch drill bit.
ASSEMBLY:
1. Place the hex. head 1 of each machine screw
into the recess 2 in the rear fence housing –
then slide each screw forward to the locations
shown (Fig. 58).
2. Place facing board 3 over screws
3. Place washers over screw threads
4. Thread and tighten the nuts onto the screws
RIPPING
RIPPING is known as cutting a piece of wood
with the grain, or lengthwise. This is done using
the rip fence. Position the fence to the desired
WIDTH OF RIP and lock in place. Before starting
to rip, be sure:
A. Rip Fence is parallel to saw blade.
