Mounting the upper guard (fig. C)
• Fasten the guard (17) to the riving knife (16) with the bolt (23).
Place the washer and wingnut onto the other end of the bolt and tighten.
• Fit the dust spout (24) to the blade guard.
Mounting and adjusting the rip fence (fig. D1 - D4)
The rip fence consists of a fixed and a sliding fence.
• Loosen the fence support locking knob (25) which holds the clamping
plate in position (fig. D1).
• Slide the fence onto the front of the table using the U-shaped slot as
the guide (fig. D2 & D3).
• Slide the fence towards the blade and tighten the locking knob.
Check that the fence is parallel to the blade. If not, then adjust as
follows (fig. D4).
• Loosen the sliding fence locking knob (26) (fig. D1) and slide the sliding
fence backwards in order to obtain full sight on the two holes (27) (fig. D4)
in the top of the fence.
• Loosen the two Allen screws fastening the fence to the fence support
with the small Allen key. Access is gained through the two holes in the
top of the fence.
• Adjust the fence so that it is parallel to the blade by checking the distance
between the blade and the fence at the front and rear of the blade.
• When the adjustment has been carried out, re-tighten the Allen screws
and check again that the fence is parallel to the blade.
Adjusting the saw bench table (fig. A1, E1 - E3)
The table slides up and down manually and is held at the required height
with two locking knobs. The locking knobs are located under the table,
the main at the rear of the motor (28) (fig. E1) and the additional at the
front to the left of the saw blade (8) (fig. A1).
• Loosen the knobs and position the table as required.
• When the unit is being used as a saw bench, the fixed lower guard (19)
should always be used (fig. E3). Remove the M10 hex nut (29) and fit
the guard as shown (fig. E2). Replace the nut and tighten so that the
guard is fixed in position. The machine should always operate in the
bench position with this guard in place.
Mounting the saw blade (fig. F1 - F4)
The teeth of a new blade are very sharp and can be dangerous.
In order to fit a new saw blade it is necessary to remove the table and
raise the saw bench table to its highest position.
• Take the pin spanner (30) and place the two holes on the outside of the
outer arbor collar (31) (fig. F2). • In the centre is a large Allen screw. Place the short leg of the 6 mm
Allen key (32) through the hole in the metal guard main frame and into
the Allen screw.
• This screw has a left-handed thread, therefore holding the spanner
firmly, turn the Allen key clockwise to loosen.
• Take out the screw and remove the outer arbor collar.
• The collar (31) has two locking projections (33) that pass through the
blade and into the inner arbor collar and locate one on each side of the
spindle against the flats provided (fig. F3 & F4).
• The blade has a 30 mm bore, and is located on a step flange on the
inner arbor collar.
• The movable blade guard (9) must be retracted. To do so, take out the
Allen screw (34) on the right-hand side of the fixed nose piece and slide
the guard back. Leave retracted (fig. F1).
• Remove the blade (35) (fig. F2).
• To fit a new blade just reverse the process, taking care to ensure that
the blade is seated on the inner flange with the teeth pointing
downwards towards the table.
15
• Ensure that the two projections on the outer collar are seated properly
through the inner collar and onto the flats on the spindle.
• Tighten the screw securely.
• Remove the guard back down and replace the Allen screw (34) (fig. F1).
The maximum diameter blade that can be fitted is 240 mm.
Adjusting the saw blade (fig. F2)
If the saw blade is wobbling during start up and run down, then adjust as
follows.
• Loosen the screw for the arbor collar (31) and rotate the blade (35)
a quarter turn.
• Retighten the screw and check to see if the blade has any wobble.
• Repeat these steps until the blade wobble has been eliminated.
Checking and adjusting the blade vertical to the rotating table
(fig. G1 & G2)
• With the head in the vertical position and the bevel locking handle (1)
tight (which can be repositioned by pulling out and rotating clear of its
spline rotation), place a set square on the table and up against the
blade (35) (fig. G1).
• If the angle is not 90°, then to adjust loosen the bevel locking handle (1)
and tilt the head slightly.
• Loosen the locking nut (36) on the adjustment bolt (37) situated in the
left underside of the rotating casting (fig. G2).
• Now screw the bolt in or out as necessary to obtain an angle of 90°
(fig. G2).
• Re-tighten the locking nut.
Checking and adjusting the bevel angle (fig. H)
• Loosen the bevel locking handle (1) and position the head to the left up
to its maximum.
• Check the angle from the blade to the table with a suitable protractor.
It should be 45°.
• If not, loosen the lock nut (38) on the bolt and screw bolt (39) either in
or out until the correct 45° angle is achieved.
• Re-tighten the locking nut.
Checking and adjusting the blade to the mitre fence (fig. J1 - J3)
• With the head in the vertical position and the bevel handle locked, the
rotating table positioned at 0° and the mitre latch lever (13) engaged,
pull down the head until the blade enters the slot in the table (fig. J2).
• Now place a set square against the mitre fence and along the blade.
The angle should be 90° (fig. J1).
• If adjustment is required, loosen the two Allen screws (40), one each side of the mitre latch lever (13), and loosen the two rotating table
locking knobs (2) (fig. J2 & J3).
• Now move the mitre latch assembly and table either left or right as
required.
• Re-tighten the Allen screws (40) and the rotating table locking knobs (2).
• Re-position the pointer (41) to 0°. This is done by loosening the screw
with a screwdriver.
Adjusting the riving knife (fig. A1, K1 - K3)
The correct position is for the top of the riving knife (16) to be no more
than 2 mm below the highest tooth of the blade and the body of the radius
to be a maximum of 5 mm from the tips of the saw blade teeth (fig. K1).
• Loosen the table locking knobs, both main (28) (fig. K2) and additional (8)
(fig. A1), but do not take them off.
• Use the Allen key to remove the screw (42) from the rear table column
(fig. K2). Take the nut and washer off the other end of the screw.
• Remove the table.
• The riving knife (16) (fig. K1) is fastened by a large Allen screw (43)
towards the rear of the right-hand side under the table (fig. K3).
