  • Page 10: Installing Guide Bar

    Installing Guide Bar 1. Mount the scale (Figure 9) to the edge of the cast iron table with three M8 x 30 socket head screws, M8 flat washers, and spacers. 2. Mount the cylindrical steel guide bar to the edge of the cast iron table, using the four M12 hex nuts and flat washers.

    Installing Miter Fence Mount the miter fence assembly as shown in Figure 13. Tighten the rod (A, Figure 13) with the provided pin into the stationary T-nut. NOTE: Do not move the stationary T-nut; it has been calibrated with the angle scale. Screw the large lock lever (B, Figure 13) down into the other T-nut.

    5. Unlock the nut (NOTE: Left hand threads – loosen by turning clockwise). 6. Make sure the set screws in the adaptor are set flush on the blade side. (They should protrude to the rear to engage the arbor for positive drive).
  • Page 13: Starting The Machine

    Dust Collection It is strongly recommended that a dust collection system be connected to the HPS67. The dust collector should have sufficient capacity for this size machine. Both the outlet on the blade guard and on the machine base should be connected...
  • Page 14: Adjustments

    Adjustments Sliding Table Parallel to Blade The position of the sliding table relative to the machine is factory set, but should be checked periodically as the saw receives use. To ensure a clean cut, the sliding table must be set parallel to the saw blade.
  • Page 15: Sliding Table Lock

    When bevel cutting, make sure the appropriate blade guard has been mounted before operating the saw. Sliding Table Lock When loading panels and when cutting using the rip fence, the sliding table should be locked. To lock the sliding table, pull lever (Figure 24) into one of the slots in the sliding table.
  • Page 16 4. Record the measurement in the sight glass. 5. Add 2” to this measurement and slide out the extension until the new measurement is read at the end of the fixed fence (Figure 28). NOTE: Be careful to set this correctly, because the scale on the sliding fence reads opposite the scale on the fixed fence.
  • Page 17: Miter Fence

    Miter Fence The flat T-nut which holds the vertical rod of the clamp is factory set and must remain in its position to make the angle scale correspond. 1. To set the required angle, loosen the rod (A, Figure 32) with the provided pin as shown. Loosen the large lever (B, Figure 32).

    Precision Tuning Your Panel Saw Your HPS67 is a precision machine designed to give accurate performance over many years. But like all fine equipment, it can only meet the tight tolerances required if it is tuned correctly.
  • Page 19: Free Cut (Blade To Sliding Table)

    The sliding table does not run exactly parallel to the saw blade. It runs away from the back teeth by a fraction of a millimeter. This is called "free cut." A very slight amount of free cut is desirable to avoid the problems of back cutting due to saw blade flutter.
  • Page 20: Free Cut (Blade To Rip Fence)

    out of alignment on rip fence side and vice- versa. Chip out on the bottom as alignment of scoring saw with main blade inconsistent due to movement of workpiece. Symptoms of negative free cut: Back cutting on sliding table side. Workpiece runs into back of saw blade.
  • Page 21: Square Cut

    1. Take a panel approximately 40" and cut five times round, always turning the cut edge up against crosscut fence clockwise with crosscut fence in normal position). The fifth cut cuts the same edge as the first. 2. The last offcut strip (whose left side was the last cut and whose right side was the first cut) must be the same width at both ends if every corner was precisely 90 degrees.
  • Page 22: Maintenance

    Maintenance The sliding table should be cleaned once a week, and all sawdust and chips removed. From both sides of the sliding table, blow out the dust which has accumulated between the two sections and on the ball carrier. This can be done more efficiently when the upper part of the sliding table is slid to the rear.
