4. Guide blade through slot in vertical cutting
plate (D, Figure 5), and tighten with the two
screws.
5. Verify that vertical cutting plate is square to
blade, using a machinist’s square on the
plate and against the blade (Figure 6).

6. If adjustment is needed, loosen screws and
place shims where required. Tighten screws.
7. Place a level on vertical cutting plate (Figure
7).
Figure 7
8. Turn stop screw (J, Figure 8) as needed,
until cutting plate is level. Tighten hex nut.
9. Close valve on cylinder (lever perpendicular
to cylinder) to secure bow in position.
Reinstall seat plate before using bow in
horizontal position.

Coolant system
Make sure there is coolant in
the tank before operating, to prevent damage
to pump.
Use of a water-soluble coolant will increase
cutting efficiency and prolong blade life. Do not
use black cutting oil as a substitute.
1. Remove coolant return hose (A, Figure 9)
from filter cup, and slide tank out of saw
base.
2. Fill tank to approximately 80% of capacity.
Full capacity is 9 liters (2.25 gal).
3. Place tank into base. Place coolant return
hose into the filter cup. Verify that opposite
end of coolant return hose is connected to
the coolant pan.
4. The coolant supply hose (B, Figure 9)
should connect to the taps on the blade
guide assemblies.
