USING RIP FENCE

The rip fence is used for all ripping operations. Never rip
freehand without the fence in place and securely locked.
Ripping, bevel ripping, resawing and rabbeting are done
using the rip fence.
Ripping is cutting a piece of wood with the grain or
lengthwise (Fig. 23). This is done using the rip fence.
Position the fence to the desired width of the rip and lock
it in place. Before starting to rip, be sure the rip fence is
parallel to the saw blade and the riving knife is properly
aligned with the saw blade. When ripping long boards or
large panels always use a work support. Hold the piece
against the fence and feed it through the blade with
a smooth, steady pressure. Always use the push stick to
feed the workpiece until it is clear of the table (Fig. 24).

BEVEL RIPPING

When bevel ripping material 6" (150 mm) or narrower,
use the fence on the right side of the blade only and use
the push stick to feed the workpiece past the saw blade
(Fig. 24).

DUST COLLECTION

Fasten your dust collector to the back side of the table to
the dust port (22) (Fig. 25).
The dust efficiency measurement is 45%.
WARNING
The correct selection of the saw blade depends
on the type and quality of the wood and whether
lengthways or crossways cutting is required.
For instance, Beech and oak dusts are especially
detrimental to health and therefore may be
worked only with dust collector. Cutting spruce
lengthways-long spiral chips are formed

MAINTENANCE

Do not make any adjustment while the motor is in motion.
Always make sure the machines plug has been removed
from the mains power source before changing brushes,
lubricating or when doing any works or maintenance
on the machine.
After each use, check your machine for demage or
broken parts and keep it in top working condition by
repairing or replacing parts immediately. Clean out
accumulated dust.
To assure safety and reliability, all repairs with the
exception of externally accessible brushes should be
performed by AUTHORISED SERVICE CENTRE or any
other authorised service centre or organisations.
Faults in the machine, including guards or saw blades,
should be reported as soon as they are discovered.
OPTIONAL: MOUNT THE TABLE SAW TO THE
STAND (FIG. 26)

Turn stand (21) upright as shown.
Carefully place table saw on top of tand. Align holes
in the table saw base with holes in stand.
Insert the hex bolts in each of the four holes and
secure using hex nuts with flat washer aligned as
shown.
Tighten all hardware with a wrench. You may find it
helpful to use one wrench to hold the head of the bolt
and one to tighten the hex nut.
