Electrical Safety
4.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges,
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
5.
6.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding
prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with
a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
7.
Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way. Double insulation
eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power
cord and grounded power supply system.
8.
9.
Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools or
pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immediately. Damaged
Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked
“W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
Personal Safety
10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
11. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep
your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
12. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging in.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch, or plugging in power tools
with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.
13. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.

14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
15. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, nonskid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
16. Use clamps (not included) or other practical ways to secure and support the
workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
17. Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.
18. Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool
that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be replaced.
19. Disconnect the Power Cord Plug from the power source before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
20. Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
21. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to
control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use” until repaired.
22. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
23. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when
used on another tool.
Service
24. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
25. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the “Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section of this
manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may
create a risk of electric shock or injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR THE TABLE SAW
1.
2.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Table Saw. These carry important information.
If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.
Always wear ANSI approved safety impact eye goggles and heavy work gloves when
using the Table Saw. Using personal safety devices reduce the risk for injury. Safety
impact eye goggles and heavy work gloves are available from Harbor Freight Tools.
3.
Maintain a safe working environment. Keep the work area well lit. Make sure there is
adequate surrounding workspace. Always keep the work area free of obstructions,
grease, oil, trash, and other debris. Do not use a power tool in areas near flammable
chemicals, dusts, and vapors. Do not use this product in a damp or wet location.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Avoid unintentional starting. Make sure you are prepared to begin work before turning
on the Table Saw.
Do not force the Table Saw. This tool will do the work better and safer at the speed
and capacity for which it was designed.
Always unplug the Table Saw from its electrical outlet before performing and
inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
After cutting, wait until the saw blade comes to a complete stop before removing stock
from the table, reaching around the saw blade, or leaving the area.
8.
9.
Never walk away and leave the saw running.
When making rip cuts, feed the stock into the blade against the direction of the blade
rotation.
10. Always use a push stick (not included) when ripping small or thin stock.
11. Keep saw blade sharp and free of all rust and pitch.
12. Always use the Anti-kickback Pawl (17) attachment when making rip cuts.
13. Always use the saw fence, blade guard, splitter, and anti-kickback fingers for
lengthwise sawing. Never push stock being cut by hand. Never disable the Blade
Guard (10).
14. Tighten and lock all adjusting (saw blade positioning) screws before operating.
15. Keeps hands out of the path of the saw blade during operation.
(1)
16. Only use ten (10) inch saw blades with 5/8 inch arbor on this machine.
17. Always secure the stock being cut with clamps whenever possible.
18. Make sure that the Switch is in the OFF position before plugging the line cord into the
electrical outlet.
19. Never cut more than one piece of stock at a time, for any type of cut.
20. Provide proper support for the stock based on its size and the type of operation to be
performed.

21. Many saw accidents are caused by dull, badly set, and improperly filed cutting blades;
gum or resin adhering to the cutting blade; and by saw blade misalignment with the
fence. Such conditions can cause the stock to stick, jam, stall the saw blade, or kick
back at the operator. Never cut anything other than wood with the included Saw
Blade; cutting hard materials can cause the carbide blade to shatter and break apart.
WARNING: Never attempt to free a stalled saw blade without first turning OFF theTable
Saw and unplugging the Line Cord from the outlet.
22. Avoid awkward hand positions (i.e., crossing arms during operation) in which a
sudden slip could cause your hand to move into the moving saw blade.
23. Before making any adjustments to the Table Saw, the Switch should be in the OFF
position and the Switch locked OFF.
24. Never turn the Table Saw ON before clearing the table and work surface of all objects
(tools, scraps of wood, etc.), except the stock to be cut.
25. Avoid Kickback of stock:
- For rip cuts, the saw blade must be exactly parallel to the fence to prevent pinching
or heeling. Use the stock Separator (27) on the output side of the stock cut.
- Only feed the stock against the rotation of the saw blade.
- Keep the stock firmly on the table while cutting.
26. When making rip cuts:
- Push only on the main section of stock, between the saw blade and the fence.
- Always use a push stick, never your hands.
- Do not release the stock before the cut is complete, and push beyond the saw blade.
- Always push the stock through the saw blade, never pull it through from the opposite
direction.
- Always use the anti-kickback claws.
- Do not rip stock that is bowed, warped, or has nonparallel edges.
- Never reach over or behind the saw blade.
27. The use of abrasive, cut off, or wire wheels can be dangerous and must not be used.
28. Never perform any sawing operation freehand.
29. Before each use, check all nuts, bolts, and screws for tightness. Vibration during
cutting may cause these to loosen.
30. Keep extension cord off the ground and away from water.
Note: Performance of this tool may vary depending on variations in local line voltage. Exten-
sion cord usage may also affect tool performance.

WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities, contain chemicals known (to the State of California) to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemi-
cals are: lead from lead-based paints, crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other
masonry products, arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber. Your risk
from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles. (California Health & Safety Code 25249.5, et seq.)
WARNING! People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before us-
ing this product. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to a heart pacemaker could
cause interference to, or failure of the pacemaker. In addition, people with pacemakers
should adhere to the following:
• Avoid operating power tools alone.
• Don’t use a power tool with the power switch locked on.
• If powered via a power cord be certain that the tool is properly grounded. A ground
fault interrupt (GFCI) system is also a good precaution. This inexpensive device is
a good safety measure because it prevents a sustained electrical shock.
• Properly maintain and inspect all tools before use to avoid electrical shock.
GROUNDING
Note:This tool comes with a 3-prong grounded plug.
WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool or
product. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if
the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service
facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs
1.
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong
grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool
should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance
path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See
Figure A.)
SKU 91815
Page 7

2.
3.
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to
the grounding system in the tool.The green wire in the cord must be the only wire
connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically
“live” terminal. (See Figure A.)
Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like
those in the following illustration. (See Figure A.)
Figure A.Three-prong Outlet
Figure B.Two-prong Outlet
Double Insulated Tools:Tools with Two Prong Plugs
4.
5.
Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special double
insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the
applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard
Association, and the National Electrical Code. (See Figure B above.)
Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the
following illustration. (See Figure B above.)
EXTENSION CORDS
1.
2.
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use
either a two or three wire extension cord.
As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge
extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious
drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. (See Table A.)
3.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For
example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord. (See
Table A.)
4.
5.
When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure
each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Table A.)
If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate
amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size. (See Table
A.)

6.
7.
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix “W-
A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified electrician
before using it.
8.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet
areas.

Raising, Lowering, and Tilting the Saw Blade
WARNING! Avoid serious injury. Do not raise, lower, or tilt the Saw Blade while the
machine is running! Always turn the Table Saw Off before adjusting the Saw Blade.
1.
To raise or lower the Saw Blade, loosen the Hand Wheel Lock Knob (143), then turn
the Saw Blade Height Hand Wheel (144) on the front of the Table Saw. Retighten Lock
Knob.
Note: On through cuts, the Saw Blade should be adjusted to 1/8” to 1/4” above the top surface
of the material to be cut.
2.
To tilt the Saw Blade from 90 down to 30 degrees, loosen the Hand Wheel Lock Knob
(143), then turn the Tilt Hand Wheel (144) on the side of the Table Saw to the desired
angle. The angle can be read on the Tilt Scale on the front of the Table Saw. Retighten
Lock Knob.
Making a Rip Cut
1.
Loosen the Fence Lock Knob (56) and slide the Fence to the desired distance from
the Saw Blade. Use the scale on the Rail Guide to measure. Retighten Fence Lock
Knob (56).
When cutting a thin width off a plank, the Fence should be positioned so that the
thicker part of the plank is between the Fence and the Saw Blade. And, the thinner
width is to the left of the Saw Blade. This lowers the chance of binding and kickback.
Longer stock needs to have external support at the same height as the Table.

If an angle is to be cut, adjust the Miter Gauge by loosening the Lock Knob (1) and
setting the desired angle as read on the scale. Retighten the Lock Knob.
With the Miter Gauge in front of the Saw Blade, place the stock to be cut flush against
the Miter Gauge surface and align the cut mark with the Saw Blade.
Raise the Blade Guard (10) to expose the Saw Blade. Place the stock to be cut next
to the Saw Blade and adjust the Saw Blade height to 1/8” to 1/4” above the thickness
of the stock.
6.
Lower the Blade Guard (10), making sure that the Anti-kickback Pawls are facing
backward and sitting on the Table.

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
1.
2.
WARNING! All repairs or service, aside from those procedures explained in this
manual, should be attempted only by a qualified technician.
WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch of the Table Saw is in its “OFF” position
and that the tool is unplugged from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection,
maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
3.
Before each use, inspect the general condition of theTable Saw.Check for loose screws,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical
wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or
vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged
equipment.
4.
5.
6.
Cleaning – After each use, apply compressed air to blow clean all the parts of the Table
Saw.
Saw Blades – Never use a replacement blade rated lower than 5,200 RPM, and larger
than 10 inches diameter.
Motor Brushes – Periodically inspect the two motor Carbon Brushes (138) Replace if
necessary by a qualified service technician. Improper Brush maintenance can cause
motor failure. The Brush Caps (139) are located on each side of the motor housing.
7.
8.
Lubrication – The Table Saw does not require initial lubrication. Periodically, however,
check all moving parts (i.e., knobs, levers, column shaft, Elevating Handle, shafts) to
make sure that they move smoothly. If lubrication is required, use a small amount of light
oil.
Motor Preventative Maintenance – In addition to worn motor Brushes, the following are
major causes of motor failure:
- Using a dull or sticking Saw Blade
- Feeding the stock through the Saw Blade too fast
- Starting the cut before the Saw Blade has reached full speed
- Abnormal friction caused by improper alignment of the motor assembly, especially when
ripping
- Low current or voltage supplied to the machine
- Buildup of dust in the motor housing, which prevents proper cooling.
9.
Storage – Store the Table Saw in a clean and dry location. Cover with a tarp.
