fig. 3

fig. 2

3.2.

Set the saw on a flat, stable work bench, or surface strong enough to support the saw and any workpiece. Bolt the saw to the work

surface (or pedestal) using the holes provided in the base.

3.3.

Control lever assembly

3.3.1. Check control lever cable slot (fig. 2.1) for burrs or sharp edges - rectify if found - and then screw lever into hole ‘A’ (fig. 3) in saw head. 

Position lever with cable slot to the rear and tighten lock nut.

3.3.2. Connect cable (fig. 2.2) terminals to microswitch (3) and fit microswitch and button (4) into handle moulding as shown.

3.3.3. Fit both handle mouldings around control lever, with button to the rear and cable in cable slot. Insert screw (5) to clamp handle

mouldings together, then attach handle to control lever with 2 screws (6).

3.4.

Blade assembly

3.4.1. Fully raise motor block by pushing control lever rearward.

3.4.2. Remove screw (fig. 4.1) and rotate blade guard towards the rear. 

3.4.3. Remove blade retaining screw (fig. 4.2) and blade flange (3). 

3.4.4. Locate blade on drive face ensuring that rotation arrow on blade matches that on blade guard. Refit flange and screw. 

3.4.5.

Rotate blade guard forward and refit screw (1). Confirm that guard will prevent fingers touching blade. 

3.5.

Fill coolant tank - see Section 2 - Specifications. Confirm tap (fig. 7.1) is open.

3.6.

Check sight-glass and confirm that there is oil in the gearbox.

3.7.

Pull control lever forward as far as possible, to lower blade, and confirm that blade is clear of saw base in this position. If blade is

touching base then adjust abutment screw (fig. 3.B) to achieve clearance.

3.8.

Raise blade as far as possible and confirm that rear of motor is clear of base. If motor is touching base then adjust abutment screw 

(fig. 3.C) to achieve clearance.
