G0588/G0591 12" Sliding Table Saws

P. Riving Knife: Maintains kerf opening during

cutting operations. This function is crucial to
preventing kickback caused by the kerf clos-
ing behind the blade.

Q. Main Blade (Not Included): Performs the

cutting operations.

R. Scoring Blade (Not Included): Small cut-

ting blade that rotates opposite the main
saw blade. The blade scores the workpiece
before the actual cutting operation is per-
formed preventing tear-out in laminate mate-
rials. The scoring blade is adjustable left and
right, up and down, and in thickness of kerf.

S. Scoring Blade Vertical Adjustment Socket:

Internal cap screw adjusts the height of the
scoring blade.

T. Scoring Blade Horizontal Adjustment

Socket: Internal cap screw adjusts the hori-
zontal position of the scoring blade in relation
to the main blade.

U. Scoring Blade Lock Socket: Locks the

scoring blade adjustments.

V. Lower Blade Guard: Prevents accidental

contact with the blade when the table is at its
full extension.
