Specific Safety Precautions
8
Do not attempt to carry out cross cutting operations
‘freehand’, always use the mitre fence for small material
and the sliding carriage for larger workpieces. Unless you
are an experienced machine operator, do not attempt to
‘rip’ freehand, always use the guiding facility of the rip
fence. It is perfectly acceptable to support, guide, and
feed the timber with your hands whilst ripping stuff of
some length, however, as you approach the blade ensure
that the push stick is to hand, and that you use it.
Remember the emphasis of the ‘push’ should be between
the blade and the fence and close to the fence. Use your
Initial Assembly
PLEASE NOTE: Some of this assembly
procedure is best accomplished by two
persons, some of the items are heavy and
awkward, and a mishandling error could
cause injury. Please think about what you are doing,
your capabilities and your personal safety.
Unpack all the boxes and check all the components
against the ‘What’s Included’ list. If any parts or
components are missing, please contact our customer
service department using the procedures and telephone
numbers listed in our catalogue, and you will be dealt
with quickly and efficiently.
PLEASE NOTE: The panel saw comes 80% assembled,
in order to reduce the footprint of the machine for
packaging, several items are dismounted from the
machine and need to be re-affixed. please check all
the boxes, packets etc, to make sure that all the parts have
been accounted for.
Main Saw
Having unpacked the boxes, (please dispose of any
unwanted packaging responsibly), put the parts and
components where by they are readily to hand. Break
down the main box by knocking the sides away (be
careful of exposed nails etc.), but leave the machine
sitting on its pallet. Remove the protective grease film
that is coating all the unpainted parts of the machine.
Use a proprietary de-greasing agent. Unfortunately, this
cleaning process is always a bit ‘mucky’. You are advised
to wear overalls or coveralls etc., during the process.
After cleaning, lightly coat the exposed metal surfaces
with ‘anti rust’ oil spray to prevent any rusting.
1. Remove the side access panel by removing the nuts
and washers. Raise the saw assembly up using the
‘Rise/Full’ operating handle and remove the box within,
see fig A
2. Locate the crown guard and hose assembly (17)
and the dust extraction moulding (16). Remove the
four self tapping Phillips screws/washers from around
free hand to support and guide the material on the
offside of the saw blade and at least 100mm away from
it. If the timber does not extend to at least 100mm to the
offside of the saw blade, the material possibly does not
need guiding or supporting.
Check (especially on site), that there are no foreign
objects e.g. old nails, screws, small stones etc embedded
in the material you are about to cut. If necessary take a
wire brush to the timber before working.
