Switching On and Off (Fig. M)
The on/off switch of your saw bench offers

multiple advantages:
• No-volt release function: should the power be shut off for
any reason, the switch has to be deliberately reactivated.
• To switch the machine on, press the green start button.
• To switch the machine off, press the red stop button.
Lock Off Feature Instructions
A cover above the switch folds down for insertion of a padlock
to lock the saw off. A padlock with a maximum diameter of
6.35 mm and minimum clearance of 76.2 mm is recommended.
Rip Fence Operation (Fig. N–P)
Rail lock lever
The rail lock lever locks the fence in place preventing
5
movement during cutting. To lock the rail lever, push it down
and toward the rear of the saw. To unlock, pull it up and toward
the front of the saw.
nOTE: When ripping, always lock the rail lock lever.
Work Support Extension /
Narrow Ripping Fence
Your table saw is equipped with a work support extension to
support work that extends beyond the saw table.
To use the narrow ripping fence in the work support position,
rotate it from its stored position as shown in Figure O, and
slide the pins into the lower sets of slots
the fence.
To use the narrow ripping fence in the narrow ripping position,
snap the pins into the upper sets of slots
the fence. This feature will allow 51 mm of extra clearance to the
blade. Refer to Figure P.
nOTE: Retract the work support extension or adjust to narrow
rip fence position whenever working over the table.
nOTE: When using the narrow ripping fence, subtract 51 mm
from the indicated rip scale reading.
Fine Adjustment Knob
The fine adjustment knob allows smaller adjustments when
4
setting the fence. Before adjusting, be sure the rail lock lever is in
its up or unlocked, position.
Rip Scale Pointer
The rip scale pointer will need to be adjusted for proper
performance of the rip fence if the user switches between thick
and thin kerf blades. The rip scale pointer only reads correctly
when the fence is installed in position 1 or 2 to the right side
of the blade. When using the narrow ripping fence for narrow
ripping (not in work support position), subtract 51 mm from
the indicated rip scale reading. See Adjusting the Rip Scale
under adjustments.
