Re-installing Pawls

1. Loosen the knob on top of the spreader, then remove

the blade guard.

2. Slide the pin in the pawl block into the second

groove from the front of the spreader, as shown in

Figure 10.

3. Press the button on the pawl block shown in Figure

9, then pivot the pawls down until they lock into

place.

4. Re-install the blade guard onto the spreader and

secure with the top knob.

When to Use the Blade Guard

The blade guard assembly MUST always be installed on

the saw for all normal through cuts (those where the

blade cuts all the way through the thickness of the

workpiece).

When Not to Use the Blade Guard

The blade guard cannot be used for any non-through

cuts (those in which the blade does not cut all the way

through the thickness of the workpiece).

Sometimes the blade guard or its components can get in

the way when cutting very narrow workpieces or other

specialized cuts. Because the blade guard is provided to

decrease your risk of injury, it should not be used if it

gets in the way of making a safe cut. Use good judgment!

IMPORTANT: Whenever the blade guard cannot be used,

the riving knife must be installed.
