Riving Knife Adjustment
Should the Riving Knife require adjusting. proceed as
follows:
In Mitre Saw mode, allow the head to rise to its fullest
extent.
Undo the locking knob - C
Hold bolt head - B and slacken locknut A. DO NOT do
this in reverse. Only slacken sufficiently for the riving knife
to move independently of its housing.
Adjust so that it sits snugly around the blade guard, as
described on page 18, with the knife as high as possible
about the blade,
When satisfied, retighten locknut A.
If you loosen the locknut too much, the riving knife may
fall from its housing. Should this occur, slide it back into
place, ensuring it is located between the shim and the
clamping plate - D (see Fig.60).
IMPORTANT. undo the locknut ONLY - do not turn the bolt head.
Please note that this adjustment may also be carried out with the saw in table saw mode.

Should it become necessary to disassemble the riving knife assembly, ensure it is reassembled in
the manner shown in Fig 50.
Please note that no more than two or three threads should be showing at the locknut...more
than this and it will be difficult to dislocate the riving knife block from the bracket when positioning
the knife alongside the blade guard..The position of nut ‘A’ Fig. 50, on the centre bolt, will
determine how many threads are shown.
When securing the riving knife to the aluminium block, hold the centre bolt head and tighten
the locknut. Once tightened, if
MORE than 2-3 threads are showing, it will be necessary to
disassemble the block, and screw nut ‘A’ towards the end of the bolt i.e. towards the locknut,
then reassemble and try again.
If too FEW threads are showing, hold the locknut still, with a spanner, and turn the bolt head
clockwise until 2-3 threads are showing. Finally hold the bolt head and fully tighten the locknut.
