ADJUST BENCH PERPENDICULAR TO THE SAW BLADE
Pull the mains cable out of the socket.
Press the sawing arm (5) into the lowered position and press the release knob (6) to lock the sawing
arm in its transport position.
[B5]
Release the mitre angle lock (24).
Turn the mitre bench (20) until the pointer points to 0º.
[B6]
Tighten the mitre angle lock (24).
Release the vertical angle lock (16) and set the sawing arm (5)to a vertical angle of 0° (in other words
the saw blade is at an angle of 90” to the mitre bench), Tighten the vertical angle lock (16).
[B7]
Hold set-square against the bench (20) and the flat part of the saw blade. (88)
NOTE:
The set-square must touch the flat part of the saw blade, not its teeth.
Turn the saw blade by hand and check the correct alignment between the saw blade and the bench at
several points.
The edge of the set-square should run parallel to the saw blade.
If the saw blade is not parallel to the bench, adjust as follows:
•
Undo the lock nuts on the sawing head vertical angle (32) using a 13 mm wrench or an adjustable
wrench.
[B9]
•
Undo the lock nut which is secured by the 0º vertical angle setting screw (33) using a 13 mm wrench
or an adjustable wrench. Release the vertical angle lock (16).
[B10]
•
Adjust the screw on the sawing head vertical angle (32) with a screwdriver by turning it clockwise
and anti-clockwise so that the saw blade is on the 90º set-square.
•
Undo the screw which holds the pointer on the vertical angle scale (17) and set the pointer so that it
points to zero. Tighten the screw again.
•
Tighten the vertical angle lock (16) and the lock nut to secure the sawing head vertical angle (32).
NOTE:
The above procedure can also be used to check the angle of the saw blade relative to the bench
for a vertical angle of 45º. The 45º vertical angle setting screw (32) is on the other side of the sawing
arm.
SWITCHING ON THE LASER LINE:
Switch on the ON/OFF switch for the laser light (2).
[B11]
ADJUSTING THE CUTTING DEPTH
Release the swing head lock (6) by pulling it. The sawing head will swing upwards.
[B12]
Swing the depth stop (30) outwards so that the setting screw (29) sits on the sawing head when it is
pressed down.
[B13]
Set the required cutting depth using the setting screw (29).
Secure the stop screw using the lock nut (31).
[B14]
The full sawing depth can be achieved by swinging the depth stop into position.
[B15]
SIDE SUPPORTS
Long pieces of wood can be supported using the side supports (35).
[B16]
There are two positioning holes (36) on each side of the bench for the side supports.
The side supports must be completely inserted before a workpiece is placed on them.
