How to operate the D45AX & D45FX:
Before operating the machine, please read the “SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS TO THE OPERATOR”. Other
important information and features need to be learned before operating the machine.
Rotation:
Both blades must rotate to the rear of the machine on the underside of the blades
(see Diagram “D”on Page No. 8.)
Blade Guard:
It is important that the Finger Guards, P/N 20F180 are adjusted to completely cover the blade.
The finger-guards, attached to the main blade guard, should be positioned around the material to give
maximum operator protection.
The main blade guard can be removed by loosening the wing nuts on top of the
guard and setting aside. Also remove bolts located at the front and sides of the
blade guard. The main blade guard will now lift off the machine. After changing
blades, replace blade guard.
Be sure to provide clearance between the blade guard
and the top of the blade at the top of the stroke.
This label is attached to the blade guards.
NEVER PUT HANDS OR FINGERS
NEAR OR UNDER THE MOVING BLADE!!
Use a piece of wood to remove
short pieces from saw.
Cutting:
(see Diagram “J”)
A fixed Double Mitre Saw, such as the D45X operates by making two 45
°
cuts at one time. The machine “V”
notches the piece of material between the two blades. To make the first cut on a stick length;
1. Feed the material to the centerline of the machine so that
ONLY
the
left
blade
makes a trim cut. Be careful
not to overfeed beyond the centerline of the machine, as the piece can be hit with the right blade, possibly
throwing the unclamped piece into the saw blade causing damage.
2. After making the trim cut, feed the material (now with a 45
°
mitre cut) to the stop at the desired length.
If using a Rabbet Gage, slide angle under rabbet of moulding and move moulding to desired dimension.
Move outside stop to same position and lock (see Diagram “K”).
3. Continue to feed length to stop as above, and make double mitre cuts until length is used.
4.
RULE OF DOUBLE MITRE CUTTING
—If the piece to be cut cannot be held on
both sides
of the blade,
do not cut it!!!
5. Be sure to adjust blades so that the blades reverse as soon as saws have cut through the material. This elimi-
nates the blade hitting the material twice (see Length of Stroke Adjustment on Page No. 10 for instructions).
Minimum cut length on the D45AX and D45FX is 5” on the point to point dimension. Consult factory
for shorter lengths.
