INSTALLATION
Your Safety Speed saw or router comes from the factory assembled and aligned. You will only have to mount the
following parts before you can run this tool:
• Counterbalance (on Models C4, C5, H-Series, and SR5)
• Motor (except for Models 6400/6800, 7400/7400XL, and the SR5/SR5U)
• Cord keeper (except for Models 7400 and 7400XL).
If you have ordered a Frame Stand, Frame Wheels, Dust Collector, or other accessories, you will find assembly
instructions packed with them (and repeated at the end of this manual).
Tools Required for Installation
NOTE: Additional tools may be required for installing accessories.
• 7/16” wrench
• 9/16” wrench (for Frame Stand Accessory)
• 5/8” wrench
• 3/4” wrench (for Frame Wheels Accessory)
• 9/16” blade wrench (provided)
Operating Environment
For safe operation, install the tool in an area that is well lit. Eliminate all shadows that could interfere with clear
viewing of the work area.
Do not locate the tool in a damp or wet location, or a location where it may be exposed to rain.
If the tool will be operated in an enclosed area, SSC recommends installing a Dust Collection System (see pg 34).
Avoid explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust, or flammable materials).
Secure the area so that children and bystanders are kept a safe distance from the work area. Provide barriers
and shields as needed.
NOTE: The average noise level of SSC saws and routers is less than 80 dB.
Unpacking
1. Remove all the plastic sheeting, protective cardboard, and wood crating.
2. One or more boxes of parts are attached to the frame. The cord keeper is taped to the carriage. Remove
these items for later installation.
Machine Assembly
Installing the Counterbalance (if required-C4, C5, H-series, and SR5)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury or damage to components, do not attempt to
disassemble or repair the counterbalance. Do not pull on the counterbalance
cable. The cable is under strong spring force: the unit must be properly
assembled before you remove the cable clip.
