OPERATION Let the blade build up to full speed before moving the workpiece into the blade. Always use push blocks, push sticks, and/or featherboards appropriately when making non-through cuts to reduce the risk of serious injury. When the cut is made, turn the saw off. Wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the workpiece. Once all non-through cuts are completed: Unplug your saw. Reinstall the riving knife in the "up" position then install the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls. MAKING A DADO CUT See Figure 46. An optional dado throat plate is required for this procedure (see the Accessories section of this manual and check with the retailer where the table saw was purchased). All blades and dado sets must not be rated less than the speed of this tool. This saw is designed for use with a 6 in. stack dado (up to width of 1/2 in.). Do not use an adjustable dado or molding cutters on this saw. WARNING: When making a non-through cut, the blade is covered by the workpiece during most of the cut. Be alert to the exposed blade at the start and finish of every cut to reduce the risk of personal injury. BLADE GUARD REMOVED NON-THROUGH CUT DADO CUT PUSH STICK Fig. 45 WARNING: Always put all blade washers in proper location when reinstalling standard blade. Failure to do so can result in possible injury and damage to the tool. WARNING: Always use push blocks, push sticks, and/or featherboards when making dado cuts to avoid the risk of serious injury. Fig. 46 Unplug the saw. Remove the blade guard, anti-kickback pawls, throat plate, and riving knife. Remove the blade nut, blade washer, and saw blade. NOTE: Always store the blade washer and throat plate in a secure location. 34 - English
