ASSEMBLY

(continued)

THROAT PLATE

1. To install throat plate, lower blade below tabletop,

then carefully feed the throat plate, with plate end

first, from the front of the table to the rear, keeping

the blade centered within the slot on the throat

plate. See Figure 11. The plate should rest within

the cavity in the tabletop on top of 5 flat head

screws.

2. Ensure that the throat plate is flush with the top of

the table.

3. If the throat is not flush with the tabletop, adjust

the height of the throat plate using the five set

screws (A) below the throat plate.

NOTE: When installing riving knife, anti-kickback

pawls and blade guard, blade must be at 90° setting

and raised to the maximum height. See Raising and

Lowering Blade, page 18.

BLADE AND RIVING KNIFE

To reduce the risk of serious

personal injury, the riving knife must

be installed and properly positioned for every

possible through and non-through cut.

1. Your saw is shipped with the blade and riving knife

installed and properly aligned. The riving knife

comes installed in the low, non-through cutting

position. Prior to operating your saw, check

to make sure the alignment of the blade to the

FIGURE 11

miter slot and the riving knife to the blade was not

affected by shipping. To check alignment of the

blade and riving knife, see page 28 in the Alignment

section of this manual.

2. The riving knife comes installed in the low, non-

through cutting position. To attach the anti-

kickback pawls and blade guard assemblies, the

riving knife must be in the raised position as shown

in Figure 12. To raise and lower the riving knife, see

Riving Knife Height Settings on page 20.

ANTI-KICKBACK PAWLS

To reduce the risk of serious

personal injury, anti-kickback pawls

must be in place when making a through cut.

1. Refer to Figure 12 and locate the anti-kickback

pawls mounting slot (A) in the middle of the top

edge of the riving knife.

2. Slide slot in the middle of the anti-kickback pawls

assembly along the top of the riving knife until the

stem (B) locates the center slot on the riving knife.

3. Depress the stem on the anti-kickback pawls

assembly (B) to allow the assembly to drop

into the slot. Push down on the anti-kickback

pawls assembly until it snaps into place and

locks. Release stem. NOTE: Pull up on the anti-

kickback pawls to make sure it is locked in

place.
