Setup and Adjustments
The Riving Knife
1). Raise the saw blade to its highest point and
remove the saw blade guard, see fig 34 on page 14.
2). Remove the four Hex screws and place carefully
aside, remove the table insert, see fig 59. Using the
spanner provided loosen the riving knife and adjust
until the tip of the riving knife is no more than 8mm
away from the saw blade and re-tighten, see fig 60.
NOTE: Check that the riving knife is parallel to the
saw blade by placing the fence up against them.
(See fig 61).

Adjusting the Rip Fence to the Blade
The fence assembly must be parallel to the saw
blade for producing accurate cuts.
1). Loosen the fence clamping handle and slide the
fence assembly up against the saw blade and check
it reads “ZERO” on the fence rail (F) or on the table
extension support arm (N), see fig 62.
NOTE: If the fence assembly does not line up
correctly with the “ZERO” marker on the scale
you will need to adjust the fence rails (F-N) until
correct.
Fig 62
NOTE: Use the ‘T’ slot to the right side of the saw
blade as a reference to check the fence is parallel,
see figs 63-64. Regularly check the fence is
parallel to ensure a perfect cut.
