Bevel Stop Adjustment
• Loosen the Bevel Lock Handle and tilt the Cutting Head
completely to the left until it rests against the 45
0
stop.
• Use a Set Square to see if the blade is at 45
0
to the table
(avoiding the TCT tips).
• If the saw blade is not in exact alignment adjustment is necessary.
• Return the Cutting Head to its upright position.
• Loosen the locknut on the 45
0
Bevel Adjustment Screw.
• Use a Hex Key to adjust the Adjustment Screw in or out as
required.
(Fig. 16)
• Tilt the Cutting Head to the 45
0
setting and recheck for
alignment with the Set Square.
• Repeat the above steps until the correct angular alignment
is achieved.
• Tighten the Adjustment Screw locknut securely once
alignment is achieved.
CROWN MOULDiNG
The Cutting Head can be tilted (to the LH side only) and locked
at an Bevel angle of 33.9
o
. The rotary table can be set at 31.6
o
Mitre angle to the left or right hand side. This allows the Rage
machine to be used for cutting 38
o
Crown Moulding.
To check the 33.9
o
angle the operator will require a vernier
angle gauge (not supplied).
To check the 33.9
o
Bevel Angle stop:
• Deploy the Crown Moulding Pin (see Operations)
• Loosen the Bevel Locking Handle and tilt the Cutting Head to
the 33.9
o
position.
• Slide the vernier angle gauge into position with one arm resting
on the rotary table and the other resting on the tilted blade.
• Read off the angle setting.
if adjustment is required:
• Loosen the locknut on the 33.9
o
Adjustment Screw.
• Use a Hex Key to adjust the Adjustment Screw in or out as
required.
(Fig. 17)
• When correct adjustment is achieved, lock the Adjusting
Screw by tightening the locknut.
FENCE ALiGNMENT
The fence must be aligned at 90
0
(square) to a correctly installed
blade The rotary table must be set at ‘0
0
’ miter angle.
The Fence is fastened to the table with two socket head Hex screws
positioned at either side of the fence in elongated slots.
(Fig. 18)
• Ensure that the Cutting Head is in the locked down position
with the latching pin fully engaged in its socket
• Place a Set Square on the table with one short edge against
the Fence and the other short edge against the Blade
(avoiding the TCT tips).
(Fig. 19)
• If adjustment is necessary, loosen the four Fence adjustment
screws using a Hex Key
• Re-position the Fence in its elongated slots until alignment
is achieved.
• Securely tighten the socket head Hex screws.
Mitre angle pointer adjustment
Note:
There are dual miter angle scales cast into the front of
the machines base. A small pointer attached to the rotary table
indicates the angle selected.
If necessary the pointer can be repositioned by loosening
its fastening screw using a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Adjust as
necessary, and then securely tighten the fixing screw
. (Fig. 20)

pREpARiNG TO MAKE A CUT
DO NOT OVER-REACh
Keep good footing and balance. Stand to one side so that your
face and body are out of line of a possible kickback.
Freehand cutting is a major cause of accidents and
MUST not
be attempted.
• Ensure that the workpiece is always firmly resting against the
fence, and where practical is clamped with the Hold Down
Clamp to the table.
• The saw table should be clean and free from any sawdust etc.
before the workpiece is clamped into position.
• Ensure that the ‘cut-off’ material is free to move sideways
away from the blade when the cut is completed. Ensure that
the ‘cut-off’ piece cannot become ‘jammed’ in any other part
of the machine.
• Do not use this saw to cut small pieces. If the workpiece
being cut would cause your hand or fingers to be within
150mm of the sawblade, the workpiece is too small.
