6 SAFETY EQUIPMENT
6.1
Cleaving wedge
The cleaving wedge (8) prevents a workpiece being caught by the ascending teeth and being
thrown against the operator. The cleaving wedge must remain in place during operation.
6.2
Saw blade protector
The saw blade guard (7) protects the user from accidentally touching the saw blade and from
flying splinters. The saw blade protector must always remain in place during operation.
6.3
Push stick
The push stick (14) serves as an extension of the hand and protects the user from accidentally
touching the saw blade. The push stick must always be used when the gap between the stop
and the saw blade is less than 120 mm.
7 UNPACKING AND ASSEMBLY
Unpack the unit and make sure all of the pieces are there.
Lower the saw blade underneath the table surface (see 8.4 Setting cutting height)
Turn the saw table up-side down
Note: If any of the parts is missing or damaged contact the retailer.
7.1
Assembly (Fig. 1)
First attach L and R table extensions to the table saw (without the brackets)
Mount the base frame and attach it to the table saw
The base frame (13) consists of four table legs with cross braces that must be mounted.
Required tools:
2 combination spanners
▪
Attach the four table legs (19) to the corners of the saw table. Note that the legs on the
rear must be mounted so that the holes for the assembly of the tilt protection devices face
the rear of the machine.
▪
Mount the cross braces A on the front and rear between legs 13.
▪
Mount the cross braces A on the sides between legs 13.
Do this by attaching each cross brace on the inside to each table leg with two screws, washers
and locking nuts.
▪
Push the rubber feet (17) onto the supporting legs.
▪
Finally, fit the four brackets 21 with the table extension and the table legs.
The brackets (21) are fitted through the screw holes in the housing.
Note: Only place the device on a level, skid-proof surface. The device must
not wobble.
7.2
Attaching the tilt protection (Fig. 2)
▪
Bolt the tilt protection to the rear supporting legs using bolts (A), washers, spring washers
and nuts.
7.3
Fitting the parallel fence (Fig. 3)
Insert the parallel fence (12) into the rail of the measuring scale. Check the setting at the
window. Push the locking lever (10) downwards to lock the parallel fence (12) into place. In
order to obtain a perfectly parallel cut, you should check the gap between the fence and the
saw blade at two positions using a meter rule.
