Cutting an extremely narrow workpiece
Longitudinal cuts in an extremely narrow workpiece with a width of 30mm or less must always be made with the help
of a push block.
A push block is not supplied. You can purchase one from your nearest specialist dealer or make one yourself.
Warning : worn push blocks must be replaced immediately.
Making bevel cuts
1.
Always use the fence when cutting bevels.
2.
Set the saw blade to the required angle.
3.
Set the fence to suit the width and height of the workpiece using the laser line as a guide.
4.
Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece width.
Making cross cuts
WARNING : when cross cutting, do not use the rip fence as a length stop as the cut off piece could bind
between the fence and the blade and cause kickback.
1.
Push the mitre fence into one of the two slots of the saw table and set it to the required angle. If you also want to
se the saw blade at an angle, use the slot, which prevents your hand and the mitre fence coming into contact
with the saw blade.
2.
Set the fence rail to the most suitable length.
3.
Press the workpiece firmly against the mitre fence.
4.
Switch on the saw.
5.
Push the mitre fence and the workpiece towards the saw blade in order to make the cut.
IMPORTANT
: never hold the part of the workpiece which is being cut. Always push the mitre fence far
enough forward for the workpiece to be cut through completely.
6.
Switch off the saw.
7.
Wait for the saw blade to stop before removing the off-cuts.
Replacing the saw blade
WARNING : switch off the machine and remove the mains power plug before carrying out any adjustments,
maintenance work or blade changes. Wear work gloves when handling or fitting the blade.
1.
Loosen the blade lock and turn the blade height wheen until the saw blade is at its maximum height.
2.
Take off the saw blade guard.
3.
Take out the table insert.
4.
Remove the riving knife.
5.
Use one of the blade change spanners to hold the spindle tightly.
6.
Use the second blade change spanner to undo the blade bolt by turning it in an anticlockwise direction (right-
hand thread).
7.
Remove the saw blade from the inner flange and lift it out.
8.
Arefully clean the saw blade flange before you fit the new blade.
9.
Insert and secure the saw blade in reverse order.
CAUTION
: take note of the direction of blade rotation. The cutting edge of the teeth has to point in the
running direction, ie forward (see arrow on the saw blade).
