If the motor continually shuts off due to overloading, contact a qualified electrician.
In the event of a power outage (breaker or fuse trip), always move the switch to the “OFF” position
until the main power is restored.
RAISING AND LOWERING THE BLADE
Raise or lower the blade with the front handwheel (A) Fig.
34. With the exception of hollow ground blades, raise the
blade 1/8" to 1/4" above the top surface of the workpiece.
With hollow-ground blades, raise the blade to the maximum
height to provide greater clearance. To raise the saw blade,
loosen lock knob (B) Fig. 34, and turn the handwheel (A),
clockwise. To lower the saw blade, turn handwheel (A)
counter-clockwise.
Lock the sawblade by turning the lock knob (B) Fig. 34
clockwise. Only a small amount of force is required to lock
the blade raising mechanism securely. Any added force
merely puts unnecessary strain on the locking device.
Limiting stops for raising or lowering are permanently built
into the mechanism and need no further adjustment.
ADJUSTING 90
° AND 45° POSITIVE STOPS
Your saw is supplied with overload protection. If the motor shuts off or fails to start due to overloading (cutting stock too
fast, using a dull blade, using the saw beyond its capacity, etc.) or low voltage, let the motor cool three to five minutes.
The overload will automatically reset itself and the machine can then be started again by pressing the “ON” button.

TILTING THE BLADE
The blade tilting mechanism allows the blade to be tilted up to 45
° to the right.
To tilt the saw blade, loosen the lock knob (D) Fig. 34 and turn handwheel (C). A pointer indicates the angle of tilt on scale (E),
marked in one-degree increments. To lock the saw blade, tighten the lock knob (D).
Disconnect the machine from the power source!
Lock the blade in position before starting the saw.
Lock the blade in position before starting the saw.
1. Raise the saw blade all the way. Turn the blade-tilting handwheel clockwise as far as it will go.
2. Use a square to see if the blade is 90
° to the table (Fig. 35). To adjust, turn the blade-tilting handwheel counter-clockwise.
Loosen the locknut (A) Fig. 36, and tighten or loosen the adjusting screw (B) until the head of the screw (B) contacts the
casting on the front trunnion when the blade is at 90
° to the table. Tight en the locknut (A).
