2. Raising/Lowering the blade
WARNING
:
Only make adjustments to the machine when the
machine is switched OFF and the blade is stationary.
Note:
This machine is equipped with a dual function folding
handle hand-wheel. In its ‘normal’ (outer) position the hand-
wheel is used to raise or lower the blade. When the hand-wheel
is pushed in against its bias spring it engages with the curved
toothed rack incorporated in the machines main body. This
allows the hand-wheel to be used to adjust the tilt/bevel angle
of the blade.
To raise or lower the blade:
•
Ensure that the hand-wheel is in its ‘normal’ position.
•
Turn clockwise to lower the blade.
(Fig. 12)
•
Turn counter clockwise to raise the blade.
3. Tilting the Blade
The blade can be tilted up to 45
0
to the left.
•
Loosen the tilt locking screw
(Fig. 13)
by turning the tilt
locking lever.
•
Push the hand-wheel in against its bias spring until it
engages the tilt rack.
•
Use the hand-wheel to set the required angle. An angle
gauge to aid setting can be found behind the hand-wheel
•
Tighten the tilt locking screw when the required angle is
achieved.
•
Allow the hand-wheel to return to its ‘normal’ position.
Note:
The tilt locking lever is sprung loaded and adjustable.
This enables the lever to be repositioned on the locking screw.
•
Pull out the lever and move to the desired position.
•
Release the lever and allow the spring to re-seat the lever.
Repositioning may be necessary to avoid fouling the machines
hand-wheel when the blade is tilted.
