FITTING THE SLIDE CHASSIS
Place the Slide Chassis (L) in the
bearing channels with the red plastic
catch and red bearing spacers closest to
the front panel (the switch box end) and
the flanges upwards. Enter two bearings
in the cutouts in the channels.
the chassis towards the rear panel and
the other two bearings will drop in.
Spray the channels with RP7 or WD40 for a smooth slide.
ADJUSTING THE SLIDE CHASSIS
Check that your saw is unplugged, make sure the blade is set at full depth of cut, and is set at 0˚.

below [especially if you have a small (184mm) saw] and follow steps 1 to 5 as required.
1. Adjust the slide chassis to the shortest
length which will suit your saw, and provide
widely spaced slot positions on the
baseplate edges for fitting the clamps. (In
shortening the chassis, do not overlap any of
the mounting slots. If relocating the four
coach bolts, use the square holes.)
2. Position the saw as far forward as possible
on the chassis, but allow for finger access to
the front wing-nut or knob on the saw.
3. Don't obstruct the sawdust opening in front
of the saw blade.
4. Try to have the blade nut no more than
170mm from the front of the chassis.
5. For small saws, bolt a thin wooden spacer
(eg. 6mm ply) behind the saw, to prevent
possible saw movement.
FITTING THE SAW LOCATORS
Break or cut the Saw Locators (k) and Knobs (l) off their
moulding "tree", and trim any remnants with a utility knife.
Fit the saw locators in the selected slots, with their straight
edges against the base-plate using four M6 screws (m) and
Flange nuts (n). Firmly tighten up the screws using a
screwdriver from below.
The spanner shown is optional, as the Flange nuts are self-gripping.
FITTING THE CLAMPING KNOBS
Screw the knobs on (they cut their own thread)
until they scrape against the top edge of the
saw base-plate.

Check that the saw is securely clamped, and
turn the slide chassis over, re-engaging the
bearings in the channels.
