Operating the E-300 sliding table
(Fig.15)
When loading panels and when cutting using the parallel fence the sliding table should be
locked.
To lock the table pull the locking lever (1) in one of the three slots in the side cover plate of the
sliding table.
If over a long period of time many short movements of the sliding table are made by e.g. crosscutting
solid wood, then it is possible that the ball carrier between the upper and lower part of the
sliding table will move. This means it will no longer be correctly positioned to allow the sliding table
to slide through its full course.
The operator will feel resistance in the sliding table motion and the full stroke will not be achieved.
This effect can be corrected simply by pushing the table with a few short, light pushes against the
buffer stop at the end, until the position of the ball carrier is adjusted and the table can be moved
again along its full stroke.
Maintenance and lubrication of the sliding table
It is highly recommended to clean the sliding table once a week, and to remove all sawdust and chips
which gradually slow down the sliding table. From both sides of the sliding table blow out the dust
which has accumulated between the two sections and on the ball carrier.
This can be done more easily and efficiently when the upper part of the sliding table is slid to the rear,
and must then be repeated with the upper part at the front end.
After all dust has been blown out, a thin oil, such as WD-40, should be sprayed onto the steel inserts
on both the upper and lower part of the sliding table. Never use a thick oil or grease ! This
maintenance job will only take 10 minutes of your time, and will ensure the
machine gives full satisfaction.
