Note. The dust chute has to be removed to access the cutter head.
Attach the dust chute with the upper and lower
fixing screws.
Connecting the electrical supply.
Note.
A qualified electrician must carry out the
installation.
Ensure that the electrical supply corresponds with
that of the machine (single-phase 220 V).
It is recommended that you use a 30-amp mains
breaker.
If you need a longer cable than that supplied on the
machine, you can connect a new cable into the
internal power termination.
Note. The machine is not normally supplied with
an electrical plug, as the type of plug will be
dependent on the installation.
Connecting the dust collection.
Connect a 4-inch flexible hose between the dust
collection hood and your dust collector.
Once fitted, pull on the hose to ensure that the
connection is tight. You do not want it to come off
during production.
Note. You will need a dust collection system with a
minimum of 1000-cubic-feet-per-minute capacity.
The stronger the dust collection the better, as the
machine is capable of producing a lot of waste.
Cleaning the machine.
The machine is shipped with the non-painted
surfaces protected from rust by a film of grease.
The grease must be removed with WD40 or similar,
as it attracts saw dust and dirt. The surfaces should
then be coated with a Teflon lubricant or similar.
Teflon tends to dry and will not attract sawdust and
dirt. To reduce table friction, it is recommended that the table is polished with a
good-quality wax. This will also afford a degree of protection from rust.
Anti-kickback teeth.
The anti-kickback teeth must be free to move, or they will not fulfill their function.
With the power disconnected, check that all the teeth move freely. If they do not,
lubricate with Teflon-based lubricant.
