Ensure that the total work area can be viewed from the
operating position. Use barriers to keep people away. Do
not operate the tool in explosive environments - power
tools create sparks that may ignite flammable materials or
gases. Do not operate the tool in damp or wet conditions
or areas, as electric shocks may result. Always use both
hands to operate the tool. Always ensure that the material
you are working on is securely clamped.
• This tool is equipped with an approved cord and plug for
its intended Country of use. The green and yellow conductor
in the cord is the earth / ground wire, never connect this to
a live terminal.
• Remove plug from power supply before replacement of
the blade, making adjustments or other maintenance work.
• We recommend the use of genuine RAGE brand blades.
• Inspect the machine and blade before each use and do not
use deformed, cracked, worn or otherwise damaged blades.
• Ensure the blade is correctly mounted & do not stop by hand.
• Only use blades rated at 1500rpm or higher.
• Always keep the power cord away from moving parts.
• When you put the tool away, switch off the motor
and ensure that all moving parts have come to a
complete standstill.
• Ensure that moveable guards operate freely without jamming.
• Never use the tool without the original protection guard
system. Do not lock the moving guard in the open position.
• In case of jamming, immediately switch off the tool and
disconnect the plug.
• Ensure that the cutting depth adjustment, angle
adjustment and vice mechanisms are firmly fixed whilst
using the tool.
• Only use the flanges and washers that are supplied with the
tool, and replace them if they become damaged or scored.
• Do not operate the tool under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. Keep loose items of clothing away
from moving parts of the saw. Keep hands away from blade
whilst in motion.
• After installing a new blade, always run the machine
for approximately one minute before cutting. If the blade
has a flaw it may shatter in this time, so stand away from
the blade.
• Ensure that you use all necessary personal safety protection
equipment and follow all safety guidelines at all times.
Power Supply
It is recommended that the RAGE2 should be used on a
separate power supply of not less than 12 AWG wire, and be
protected by a Residual Current Device. Any extension cable
should be no longer than 15 Metres and should be 1.5mm2
for 240v and 2.5mm2 for 110v machines.
Changing Blades
Ensure the machine is unplugged. Undo the butterfly nut (FIG
1 - P12) and rotate the blade cover. Press in the spindle lock
and check that it is fully engaged by manually rotating the
blade. Using the supplied 8mm Hex wrench, undo the hex
bolt that secures the blade by turning it counter clockwise,
and remove the bolt, washer, outside blade flange and blade.
Note: Do Not Remove Inside Blade Flange
Press in the spindle lock. Replace blade, making sure that
the printed side of the blade is facing you then refit the
outside blade flange, washer, and hex bolt. Turn the hex bolt
clockwise to tighten. Note: Check that the spindle lock is fully
released by manually rotating the blade before use. Rotate
the blade cover back into position and tighten the butterfly
nut. Refit the Hex wrench to the holder on the machine.
Adjustment Of The Cutting Depth Stop
The down stop should be adjusted so that the maximum
cutting capacity is maintained without the blade hitting the
base. Lower the cutter head until the arm hits the down
stop. If necessary adjust the down stop screw and lock nut
until the correct clearance is achieved. Tighten the lock nut
to lock in position.
Adjustment Of The Cutting Angle
The vice can be adjusted from 0 to 45 degrees. Loosen the M10
Allen screws (Part No. 90) on the vice and adjust to the required
cutting angle. Tighten M10 Allen screws to lock in position.
Adjustment Of The Stationary Vice
The vice can be repositioned by removing the M10 Allen
screws, and then sliding the fence to the desired position.
Replace and tighten the M10 Allen screws to lock in position.
