ADJUSTMENTS
Adjustable stationary vise
The adjustable stationary vise (A) Fig.6 is located at the rear of your cut-off table. This
vise can be rotated to attain cutting angles from 0
0
to 45
0
and moved backwards to
allow greater cutting widths.
Cutting angle adjustment
To adjust the angle of cut:
1. Using the supplied wrench, loosen the hex. bolts (B) behind the vise.
2. Rotate the vise until the desired angle of cut is aligned with the indicator groove in
the saw base.
3. Check the angle of the vise in relation to the abrasive wheel using a protractor,
bevel square, or similar device.
4. While holding the vise (A) and using the supplied wrench, securely retighten the
hex. bolts (B).
Moving the stationary vise
To increase the width of cut of the cut-off saw:
1. Using the supplied wrench, remove hex. bolts (B) Fig.6 securing the vise to the
cut-off saw base.
2. Reposition the curved slot of the vise base with the most rear threaded hole in the
saw base and install a hex. bolt in this hole. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
3. Align the remaining vise bolt hole with the middle threaded hole in the saw base
and install the other hex. bolt.
4. Check or adjust the cutting angle and securely tighten both hex. bolts with the
supplied wrench.
Quick lock-release vise
The cut-off saw is equipped with a quick lock-release vise system as standard
equipment. With this feature you are able to open and close the vise quickly without
repetitive turning of the vise crank handle.
Using the quick lock-release vise.
To loosen
:
1. Slightly release tension on the vise by rotating the crank handle (A) Fig.7 counter-
clockwise 1/2 to 1 turn.
2. Lift up (disengage) the quick lock-release half nut (B) and pull back on crank
handle to slide open the vise.
To tighten:
1. Push the crank handle (A) forward to slide the vise against the workpiece.
2. Make sure the quick lock-release half nut is lowered and has engaged the threaded shaft.
3. Rotate the crank handle clockwise to tighten the vise against the workpiece.
Adjustable positive depth stop
The adjustable depth stop (A) Fig.8 is threaded into the saw base. By raising and lowering the depth stop bolt using the supplied wrench you
can control how far the abrasive wheel travels when the machine handle is depressed. After making an adjustment of the depth stop bolt, make
sure to tighten the hex. nut (B).
