Leecraft DW-2 Zero Clear Insert

• Lower the blade completely.
  
• Place insert in table with finger hole at front and starter pocket located over blade.
  
• Run leveling screws down until insert is stable and flush with table top.
  
• Back out side adjustment screw, then front end adjustment screw to achieve a fit that is snug, yet removable.
  
• SPLITTER: DW744: This insert CAN NOT be used with the factory splitter. We recommend purchasing (call for sources) or making a pin or blade type splitter which is mounted to the insert itself, just behind the blade slot. DW746: To use factory splitter, you'll need to cut a short slot at the rear of the insert to accommodate it, using a bandsaw or hacksaw. Leave the "bridge" between the splitter slot and the blade slot as thick as possible.
  
• Check that insert is fitted properly, and that blade is clear. Using a stick, reach under the table and rotate the blade manually to check for blade clearance.
  
• Fully cover the insert with a board, and clamp at each end to the table saw top.
  
• Re-connect power to saw. Switch on, slowly and cautiously raise blade up, to cut its way through the insert. KEEP HANDS OFF OF TABLE TOP, STAY CLEAR AND WEAR GOGGLES. Raise blade to maximum height at this time.
  
• Lower blade, turn off saw, and remove board. Your insert is now ready for use!
  
• Only recommended for use with carbide tipped cutters.
  
• DADO BLADE - Use same procedures outlined above, but use additional caution due to excessive material being machined from insert during the slotting procedure.
  
• Under certain conditions, an undesirable scraping noise may be generated by your saw blade. Planer type blades and/or excessive arbor run-out, and/or blade distortion, may be causing intermittent contact with the insert slot. To remedy this, remove the insert and slightly widen the slot using a file or sanding paddle.
  
• Ideally, a separate insert should be used with each blade, dado stack, or angle set-up. This will insure a true "zero-clearance" effect and give you maximum benefit from your inserts.
