Table Saw
Mod. RT-40
Controls
1. ELECTRIC SWITCH (pag. 07)
2. SAW TILT ADJUSTMENT HANDWHEEL (pag. 07)
This handwheel is used to adjust the tilt angle of the saw from 0º to 45º. To adjust this feature, loosen lock knob nº
4 then turn the handwheel nº 2 until the desired angle is obtained, relock. The angle is read on scale nº 5
3. SAW BLADE HEIGHT ADJUSTING HANDWHEEL (pag. 07)
This handwheel is used to adjust the amount of blade that protrudes through the top of the material. Before moving
the handwheel, loosen lock knob nº 6, then relock after the adjustment is completed.
Rip Fence Alignment
The relationship between the rip fence and the blade assembly has been aligned from the factory. Should the fence
require adjustment due to shipment, please follow the procedure below.
First loosen or tighten nuts nº 11 as needed until the desired parallel relationship is obtained between the saw
blade and the rip fence. Never adjust the rip fence so that the distance between the blade and fence on the output
end is less than on the input end. This slightly greater distance at the output side of the blade will decrease the
possibility of pinching or binding of the material.
Rip Fence Width Adjustment
Proceed as follows: First loosen lock lever nº 7 and turn knob nº 8 until the desired adjustment is obtained. Relock
by lever nº 7. The width of the cut is read on scale nº 9. To obtain the longitudinal adjustment of the guide it is
necessary to loosen the two knobs nº 10, retightening after adjustment.
Scale Pointer Adjustment (page 07)
The scale pointer may need occasional adjustment due to variations in saw blade kerfs. When adjustment is
necessary, proceed as follows: First, disconnect power supply then slide the rip fence gently against the saw blade.
Loosen knob nº 13 and adjust the pointer to zero on scale nº 9 to zero. Complete the adjustment by locking nº 13.
Adjustment of the tilt limit stops (page 07)
These stops are designed to give the blade an exact locator for 0º and 45º. These stops have been adjusted at the
factory. If later adjustment is necessary: place a precision square against the blade and adjust to 0º, loosen nut nº
14, and adjust acrew nº 15 until the blade stops at the correct position. Tighten nut nº 14. Follow the same
procedure for the 45º adjustment.
Vertical Saw Blade Adjustment (page 07)
Stops nº 16 limits the maximum and minimum height travel of the blade. These stops have been adjusted at the
factory. If future adjustment is necessary, loosen nuts nº 17 and adjust screw nº16 to increase or decrease the
blade travel. Once positioned, tighten nº 14 nuts. Do Not use a blade that is larger than specified.
