Lowering extremely the cutting head can damage the cart. To avoid this, the machine has an adjustable buffer
stop (C, Fig.5) that limits the decline of the cutting head so that the blade does not surpass the necessary
depth. Loosen the lever D Fig.5 and using the handle (A, Fig.5), position the blade in the wanted height and tighten
the lever.
8.3 REALISING A STRAIGHT CUT
To realise a straight cut, put the material on the cart and rest it against the frontal ruler D Fig.6; pull handle
A Fig.6 attempting to slide the buffer stop C Fig.6 until the material to cut is hold down. To immobilize the buffer stop
holding the material, use the lever (B Fig.6).
To cut, turn the wheel and moving the cutting head forward towards the material to cut.
Start slowly and move as per the depth of the material and its hardness. Moving the blade excessively can
produce a defect cut or block the blade.
The water pump starts simultaneously with the motor. Before you start to cut, make sure that the blade is
receiving the necessary quantity of water. This model is also prepared to receive water directly from the water tape.
8.4 REALISING A DIAGONAL CUT
To effectuate a diagonal cut, place the block on the cart pushing it against the frontal ruler D, Fig.7 using the
conjunct ruler B fig.7 with its graduated semicircle C Fig.7 pushing it against the material to cut and placing the front
face of the ruler against the front face of the material to cut. We fasten the blocking wheels A y E Fig. 7 In this
manner, we manage to determine the position of the ruler for successive cuts.
9. MAINTENANCE
The table saws MAGNUM 700, 900 and 1000 require a simple maintenance as follows:
• Change the water and clean the tray as frequent as possible. The tray is equipped with a water outlet.
• Water in the tray should completely cover the pump without having to spill out.
• Though the water pump has a filter slap, some remains of the cut materials can get inside it blocking the spiral.
To avoid this, let the pump periodically run in a bucket filled with clean water for some minutes. If necessary,
remove the filter slap and clean well the turbine until the spiral turns loosely.
• Remove possible remains of materials off the cart.
• Replace as rapid as possible any electrical cable causing cuts, breakage or any deterioration. Use original parts.
• Maintenance is preferentially to be done by persons well acquainted with the machine and its functioning.
Any manipulation of the machine must always be made with the motor stopped and the electricity cable
•
disconnected. Do not forget to remove all used equipment and tools.
In case of any functioning anomalies or bad operation, please let a specialized technician check the machine.
•
Always consider the mentioned safety recommendations mentioned in this manual.
•
Cover the machine with a waterproof cloth.
•
At the end of each day, switch off the machine and disconnect it from the electricity.
•
•
It is prohibited to bring any type of modification in any part, element or characteristic of the
machine without prior authorisation of SIMA S.A. The latter will not be in any case responsible for the
possible consequences from the breach of these recommendations.
