Mounting the riving knife and guard assembly (fig. K1 & K2)
• Loosen the bolts (72) enough to allow the riving knife (7) to fit into the
shims (73) between the retaining plates (74) (fig. K1).
• Mount the riving knife between a pair of shims.
• Using a straight edge, check if the riving knife is properly aligned with
the saw blade.
• If adjustment is needed, mount the riving knife between a different pair
of shims. Repeat as necessary.
The riving knife can be set to two different positions. In order to obtain
optimum grooving capacity, the riving knife is set to the lowest position,
which limits the maximum depth of cut. In order to obtain the maximum
depth of cut, the riving knife is set so that its top is no more than 2 mm
above the highest tooth tip of the saw blade (fig. K2).
• Set the riving knife so that the closest point is between 3 and 5 mm
away from the saw blade.
Never use your saw without having the blade guard (8) in
place, except for grooving. Use extreme care when grooving.
The riving knife supplied with this saw is designed to accommodate only
250 mm diameter sawblades with plate thicknesses 2.2 mm or less and
kerf thicknesses 2.5 mm or more.
Mounting the throat plate insert (fig. L)
• Align the throat plate insert (6) as shown and insert the tabs on the
back of the throat plate insert into the holes on the back of the table.
• Press down the front of the throat plate insert.
• The front of the throat plate insert must be flush or slightly below the
table top. The rear should be flush or slightly above the table top.
Adjust using the four adjustment screws (75).
• Turn the locking screw (see insert in fig. L) clockwise 90° to lock the
throat plate insert in place.
Never use your saw without the throat plate insert.
Immediately replace the throat plate insert when worn.
Adjusting the bevel stops (fig. A1, A2, M1 & M2)
• Set the bevel angle to 0° using the bevel adjuster (14) (fig. A2). If the
angle cannot be set to 0°, slightly turn the stop set screw (76)
counterclockwise using the 5 mm Allen key (fig. M1).
• Set the saw blade to its highest position using the height adjuster (2)
(fig. A1).
• Using a set square, check the angle between the saw blade and the
table top.
• Adjust the bevel angle until the saw blade is at exactly 90° to the
table top.
• Slowly turn the stop set screw (76) clockwise until you feel resistance.
• Set the bevel angle to 45° using the bevel adjuster. If the angle cannot
be set to 45°, slightly turn the stop set screw (77) counterclockwise
using the 5 mm Allen key (fig. M2).
• Using a set square, check the angle between the saw blade and the
table top.
• Adjust the bevel angle until the saw blade is at exactly 45° to the table top.
• Slowly turn the stop set screw (77) clockwise until you feel resistance.
For special applications, the stops may be set to allow bevel angles
between -2° and 47°.
Adjusting the bevel scale (fig. A2, M3 & M4)
• Set the bevel angle to 0° using the bevel adjuster (14) (fig. A2).
• Remove the lock knob (78) and height adjuster (2) (fig. M3).
• Loosen the screw (79).
• Set the pointer (80) to exactly 0° on the scale (3). The pointer should be
very close to the scale.
• Tighten the screw.
• Set the bevel angle to 45° using the bevel adjuster (14) (fig. A2).

If the pointer does not line up with the 45° mark:
• Loosen the screws (81) (fig. M3).
• Move the scale up or down until the pointer lines up with the 45° mark.
• Tighten the screws.
• Place the adjuster (2) onto the shaft (82) (fig. M4). Slightly rotate the
handle until the shaft pin (83) engages in the slot (84).
• Screw the lock knob (78) onto the handle.
• Tighten the lock knob, then slacken it by half a turn.
Mounting the motor cover (fig. N)
• Remove the screws (85) and washers (86) using a small flat blade
screwdriver.
• Snap the tabs (87) on the motor cover (88) into the slots (89) in the
right-hand side crossmember.
• Place the cover into position.
• Remount the screws and washers.
Placing the saw in position (fig. A2 & O)
• Move the saw to the location where you intend to use it.
If the saw rocks on the floor, or if it is not level, you can adjust by lowering
the foot or feet not touching the floor:
• Loosen the screws (90) using a flat blade screwdriver and the
combination wrench (fig. O).
• Move the foot (91) into the desired position.
• Tighten the screws.
• When moving the machine, always seek assistance.
The machine is too heavy for one person to handle.
• If possible, bolt the saw to the floor using the floor anchor
holes (16) provided (fig. A2).
Mounting and adjusting the mitre fence (fig. P)
• Slacken the wing nut (92).
• Slide the fence face (93) onto the mitre fence (10) and into the desired
position as shown.
• Tighten the wing nut.
The mitre fence has stops (94) at 90° and 45° left and right. To adjust a
stop, proceed as follows:
• Loosen the lock nut (95).
• Use a set square to accurately set the mitre fence to the desired angle.
• Flip the stop plate (96) up.
• Set the stop screw (97) against the stop plate.
• Tighten the lock nut.
Cleaning and waxing (fig. A1 & A2)
Your saw was shipped with an anti-corrosion coating on the table top.
• Carefully clean the table top using a mild solvent cleaner.
• Apply paste wax to the table top and remove the wax soon afterward
to prevent a sticky build-up.
• Apply paste wax to the front (11) rail and rear rail (12).
• Slide the rip fence (4) back and forth several times.
• Remove the rip fence and buff the rails.
Connecting the saw to the mains (fig. A1)
• Connect the power cable to the connector (9) on the saw.
• Connect the power cable to the mains.
The single phase cable must have three conductors.
The three-phase cable must have five conductors. Make sure
that the cable meets the following specifications.
