• Tilt the Cutting Head to the 45˚ setting and
recheck for alignment with the set square.
• Repeat the above steps until the correct
angular alignment is achieved.
• Hold the Adjustment Screw in place with the
hex key and tighten the Adjustment Screw
locknut securely once alignment is achieved.
• Lock the Bevel Lock Handle.
MACHINE FENCE ALIGNMENT
The Fence must be aligned at 90˚ (square) to a
correctly installed blade. The Rotary table must
be set at '0˚' mitre angle.
The Fence is fastened to the table with four (4)
socket head Hex screws (Fig. 38), two (2) to
the left hand side and two (2) to the right hand
side. All four (4) are located through elongated
slots machined into the fence casting.
• Ensure that the cutting head is in the
locked down position with the latching pin
fully engaged.
• Place a set square (triangle) on the table with
one edge against the Fence and the other
edge against the Blade (avoiding the TCT
tips). (Fig. 39)
• If adjustment is necessary, loosen the four (4)
Fence adjustment screws using a Hex Key.
• Re-position the Fence in its elongated slots
until alignment is achieved.
• Securely tighten the socket head Hex screws,
repeat on both sides.
MITRE ANGLE POINTER
ADJUSTMENT
Note: There are dual mitre angle scales cast
into the front of the machines base. A small
pointer attached to the rotary table indicates
the angle selected.
If necessary, the pointer can be repositioned
by loosening its fastening screw using a #2
Phillips screwdriver. Adjust as necessary, and
then securely tighten the fixing screw. (Fig. 40)
THE DEPTH STOP
(Fig. 41)
Use of the depth stop allows the operator to
cut slots in a work-piece.
The downward travel of the cutting head can
be limited so that the saw blade does not
completely cut through the work-piece.
Note: When using the depth stop it is advisable
that the depth of cut is checked using a scrap
piece of timber to ensure that the slot is cut
correctly.
By making a cut in the work-piece, and then
repeating the cut but with the work-piece slightly
repositioned to the left or right, it is possible to
perform trenching cuts.
To use the depth stop:
• Deploy the depth stop 'stop plate' (Fig. 41-a)
by rotating it forward from its storage position
alongside the machine to its horizontal
service position.
• Loosen the knurled locking nut. (Fig. 41-b)
• Adjust the thumb - screw (Fig. 41-c) to limit the
cutting heads travel to the required depth.
• Once set to the desired depth, tighten the
knurled locking nut (Fig.41-d) against the
retaining bracket to lock the depth stop and
ensure that there is no movement.
• When cutting is complete either re-adjust the
depth stop or return the 'stop plate' to its storage
position.
• Check that the Cutting Head can be locked in
the down position by the head latching pin.
THE SLIDING UPPER FENCE
SECTION
(Fig. 42)
Both sides of the machines Fence have
adjustable Upper Sections. These sections can
slide outwards, away from the blade and be
re-positioned as required.
Adjustment may be necessary when certain
acute bevel or compound angles are selected to
provide clearance for the moving cutting head
and blade as a cut is made.
To adjust the sliding fence:
• Loosen the thumbscrew. (Fig.43)
• Slide the selected upper section of the Fence
away from the blade to the desired position
and tighten the thumbscrew.
• Conduct a 'dry run' with the power off to
confirm that there is no interference between
moving parts as the Cutting Head and blade
are lowered to make a sliding cut.
THE LASER
This machine is equipped with a laser cutting
guide. This allows the operator to preview the
path of the blade through the work-piece. The
