Depth stop
Note:
Ensure that the depth stop is adjusted to the correct height
before commencing operation.
The adjustable depth stop is threaded into the base of the machine at
the rear.
The travel of the cut-off wheel can be controlled by raising and lowering
the depth stop bolt.
This feature is particularly useful to prevent contact with the work
bench surface when a new cut-off wheel is fitted or to increase cut-off
wheel travel as the cut-off wheel wears.
The depth stop should be checked and adjusted every time
a new cut-off wheel is fitted.
1. Loosen the depth stop with the hex
key supplied.
2. Increase or decrease the height
of the depth stop.
3. Tighten the depth stop knurled lock nut
with your fingers.
WARNING!
DO NOT REMOVE OR OPERATE
WITHOUT THE DEPTH STOP!
Adjusting the cutting angle
1. To change the cutting angle
loosen the two bolts securing
the fence using the hex key
supplied.
2. Move the rear fence to the
desired angle using the scale
as a guide.
3. Tighten the two bolts to secure
the fence in position.
WARNING!
ONLY PERFORM ANGLE CUTS WHEN
THE FENCE IS SET AT THE MOST FORWARD
POSITION (REFER TO ADJUSTING THE FENCE).
Note:
For accurate cuts, test the cutting angle on some similar scrap
material and adjust the angle to suit your requirements. The scale is
only a guide.
Adjusting the fence
The spacing between the vice and the fence as supplied is 170mm.
When cutting wider materials the rear fence will need to be adjusted to
the rear position. When cutting narrow work pieces the fence should
be positioned in the most forward position.
1. To adjust, loosen and remove the two bolts securing the fence
using the Hex key.
3. Tighten the two bolts to secure
the fence in position.
WARNING!
NARROW WORKPIECES MAY NOT BE
SECURED SAFELY WHEN USING AN INTERVAL
TOO WIDE FOR THE FENCE. ENSURE THAT THE
FENCE IS SET TO THE MOST FORWARDS POSITION
THAT ALLOWS THE WORKPIECE TO BE CLAMPED
SECURELY.
2. Move the fence backwards or
forwards to one of the other
two fixing positions.
