Changing the Drive Belt
Should the saw blade tend to bind in the workpiece, this is an indication that the drive belt
needs either replacing, or adjusting. To check, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the plastic belt cover - ref: Fig 42,
(5 securing screws).
2. Check the belt tension using the thumb only.
It should be possible to depress the belt by 5mm
ONLY, midway between the pulleys. If the belt is
worn, it must be replaced at this stage.
3. To tension the belt, slacken off the four motor
securing screws, arrowed in Fig 42, then using a
suitable lever in one of the elongated holes,
lever the motor to the right. When the tension is
correct, hold in position whilst retightening the
screws using a socket and wrench.
4. Replace the belt cover.

45º & 90º Tilt Adjustment
The head is correctly set up when delivered, but should it come out of line for any reason, it may
be checked and adjusted as follows:
1. Turn the head to 45 O but do not tighten the
securing lever.
2. Turn the head lowering handle so that the
blade guard is retracted, exposing the saw
blade.
3. Place a 45 O protractor on the table and
offer up to the blade, as shown in Fig.43,
ensuring it is located between the saw blade
teeth. i.e. it lies flat against the saw blade.
Check the angle.

4. To adjust, undo the locknut at ‘A’, Fig.44 and using a hex. wrench, turn the adjuster in or
out as appropriate, so that the head is precisely at 45
O
. When satisfied, tighten the locknut.
The procedure for adjusting the 90 O stop is similar, with the head set at 90 O, using an engineers
square, and the adjustment made using the adjuster ‘B’, Fig.44.
When adjustments are complete, the pointer should be zeroed, so that all intermediate angles
may be confidently set. To do this, set the head to 45
O , then slacken the two screws securing the
scale, and move the scale so that the 45
O
mark is exactly in line with the edge of the pointer,
arrowed in Fig.45.
