OPERATING CONTROLS

The following is an explanation of the operating controls of the Delta 10” Radial Saw. We suggest you study these

explanations carefully to familiarize yourself with the controls before turning on the power, to avoid damage to the saw

or personal injury.

A – TRACK ARM CLAMP KNOB. Controls swing of

track arm for all miter cutting operations. Locks track

arm at any angle for the full 360º rotation. To rotate track

arm loosen clamp knob and rotate arm. The arm will stop

at the 0º and 45º positions right and left. To move the

arm past these points the track arm index knob (B) must

be pulled out. (Fig. 2)

B – TRACK ARM INDEX KNOB. Locates 0º and 45º po-

sition, right and left, of the track arm. (Fig. 2)

C – YOKE INDEX LEVER. Locates each 90º position of

the yoke for ripping or cross-cutting operations. When

rotating the yoke the yoke clamp handle must first be

loose. (Fig. 2)

D – YOKE CLAMP HANDLE. The yoke clamp handle

must be loose when rotating the yoke to the rip or cross-

cut position. (Fig. 3)

E – ANTI-KICKBACK DEVICE. When ripping, the yoke

is positioned and clamped so that the blade is parallel to

the fence. The rear of the blade guard is lowered until it

almost touches the workpiece. The anti-kickback rod is

then lowered so that the fingers catch and hold the

workpiece. Never rip from the anti-kickback end of the

blade guard. (Fig. 3)

F – OVERARM ELEVATING HANDLE. Controls the

depth of cut in all operations. Turning the handle raises

or lowers the overarm. (Fig. 2)

G – CUTTINGHEAD CLAMP KNOB. Locks cuttinghead

at any position on the track arm. When ripping the

cutting clamp knob must be tight. (Fig. 3)

H – BEVEL INDEX KNOB. Locates 0º and 45º and 90º

positions of the motor when bevel cutting. When tilting

the motor for bevel cutting, the bevel clamp handle must

first be loose. (Fig. 3)

J – BEVEL CLAMP LEVER. Controls tilt of motor for

bevel cutting operations. Locks motor at any desired

angle on the bevel scale. (Fig. 3)

K – TABLE CLAMP KNOBS. Allows the operator to

quickly set the desired fence position. (Fig. 3)

L – ON-OFF SWITCH. Conveniently placed at eye level;

switch can be turned on or off in an instant for added

operator protection. (Fig. 3)
