BODY AND HAND POSITIONING (Fig. 7)

•  Never place your hands within the ‘No Hands Zone’  

(at least 150mm away from the blade). Keep hands  
away from the path of the blade.

•  Secure the workpiece firmly to the table and against  

the fence to prevent any movement. 

•  Use a top hold down clamp if possible but check that it is  

so positioned that it does not interfere with the path  
of the blade or other moving machine parts.

•  Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden 

slip could cause your fingers or a hand to move into the blade.

•  Before attempting a cut, make a ‘dry run’ with the power  

off so that you can see the path of the blade.

•  Keep your hands in position until the ON/OFF trigger switch 

has been released and the blade has completely stopped.

ADJUSTMENT OF PRECISION ANGLES

Several checks/adjustments are possible on this machine.  
The operator will require a 45°/45°/90° set square (not 
supplied) to carry out these checks and adjustments. 

WARNING:

 Checks/adjustments must only be conducted  

with the machine disconnected from the power supply.

BEVEL ANGLES (0°

 

& 45°)

 

Bevel Stop Adjustment

•  Ensure that the cutting head is in the locked down position 

with the latching pin fully engaged in its socket 

(see Fig.16)

.

•  Ensure that the cutting head is upright, against its stop  

and the bevel pointer is indicating 0°

 

on the scale 

(Fig. 8)

.

•  Place the set square on the table with one short edge 

against the table and the other short edge against the blade 
(avoiding the TCT tips of the blade teeth) 

(Fig. 9)

.

•  If the blade is not at 90°

 

(square) with the mitre table, 

adjustment is required.

•  Loosen the bevel locking handle and tilt the cutting head  

to the left.

•  Loosen the locknut on the bevel angle adjustment screw with 

a 10mm spanner and 3mm Hex key (Not supplied) 

(Fig. 10)

.

•  Use the Hex key to turn the screw in or out to adjust the  

blade angle.

•  Return the cutting head to its upright position and  

recheck the angular alignment against the set square.

•  Repeat the above steps until correct angular alignment  

is achieved.

•  Tighten the bevel angle adjustment locknut securely.
