Line 65:
Line 65: − 1. Ensure that the material you are cutting has at least one straight edge and no nails or foreign objects. The straight edge will slide against the fence when ripping.+ − 2. Measure the width of the board and determine the width of cut desired.+ − 3. Lift the locking handle on the fence and slide the fence to the desired cut width using the scale. Make sure you use the scale for the correct side of the blade.+ − 4. Lock the fence by pressing down on the locking handle.+ − 5. Use the elevation handle on the front of the saw to set the height of the blade approximately 1 tooth above the height of the material by placing the material next to the blade as a guide. This limits the exposed blade.+ − 6. Turn on the main power switch on the front of the saw and the dust collector. The green light on the saw will flash and turn solid green when the saw is ready.+ − 7. Make sure nothing is touching the blade. Turn on the saw by gently pulling on the red start paddle switch located on the front of the machine. The paddle switch is also the off switch when pressed.+ − 8. Line up the flat side of the material with the fence without touching the blade. The fence is a guide and the material should be pressed firmly into the fence as well as down on the table. If the board is warped make sure that curved side is face downward.+ − 9. Slowly feed the material in towards the blade while keeping your fingers at least 6" from the blade. Use a push stick to keep fingers away from the blade.+ − 10. Make sure you keep a firm hold on the material and do not stop feeding the material until it has passed beyond the blade.+ − 11. It is helpful to have someone assisting on the back side of the saw to help hold material being fed off the table. Make sure the person helping does not pull on the material.+ − + + + + + + + + + + +

PRESSING IN THE PIN
1. Place the plate you will be pressing the pin into on the top of the table.
2. Set the dowel pin into the guide and make sure the table is high enough for the pin to be within an inch of the top of the pin.
3. If you need to adjust the table remove the safety clips from the pins supporting the table and remove the table plates and assembly pieces. The table plates are heavy so don't drop them.
4. To move the table down you will remove the two upper pins and reinstall them in the correct holes below.
5. You will need a second person to help lift the table slightly while removing the remaining two pins and slowly lower the table onto the pins below.
6. Reinstall the top two pins and safety clips.
7. To move the table up you will leave the lower pins installed and remove the two upper pins. The lower pins will help prevent the table from accidentally dropping to the floor while making an adjustment.
8. You will need a second person to help lift the table while installing the two removed pins in the 2 lower positions.
9. Install the 2 remaining top pins and safety clips.
10. Place table plates and assembly pieces back onto the table.
12. When the saw cut is complete, press in on the paddle switch to turn off the saw and lower the blade below the table to keep anyone from accidentally cutting themselves.
11. Place the dowel pin into the guide and align the pin with the hole in the plate. Make sure the pin is aligned with the center of the ram to keep the force centered.
12. Make sure the pressure relief handle has been turned clockwise to allow pressure to build.
13. Insert the pump handle into the handle socket.
14. Slowly pump the handle while watching the force gauge and the pin. Make sure pressure is not building.
15. If the pin starts at an angle do not continue to apply force as this will most likely bend the pin and cause damage.
16. When the pin is at the bottom of its travel it will stop moving and you will see the force increase on the gauge and this is a good time to stop cycling the handle.
