7.2 Fitting & removing the Saw Blade Guard – Fig 3
Mount the Saw Blade Guard (2) on the Riving Knife (5) so that the screw fits through the hole (18) in
the Riving Knife.
Do not tighten the screw (15) too far – the Saw Blade Guard must be able to move freely.
To remove the Saw Blade Guard, proceed in reverse order.
Warning! The Guard (2) must always be lowered over the workpiece before you begin to cut.
7.3. Setting the splitter - Fig. 3,5,6 & 7

•
Set the Saw Blade (4) to maximum cutting depth, move to 0° position and lock in place.
•
Remove the Saw Blade Guard - see 6.2.
•
Take out the Table Insert (6) - see 6.4.
•
Slacken the Fastening Bolt (19).
7.3.1. Setting for maximum cuts - Fig. 5,6 & 7
•
Push up the splitter (5) until the gap between the saw table (1) and the upper edge of the splitter
(5) equals approx. 10 cm.
•
The distance between the blade (4) and the splitter (5) should be 3-5 mm.
•
Retighten the screw (19) and mount the table insert (6) (Fig. 6).
7.4 Changing the table insert - Fig. 6
•
To prevent increased likelihood of injury the table insert should be changed whenever it is worn or
damaged.

Remove the saw blade guard (2).
•
Remove the 2 countersunk head screws (17).
•
Take out the worn table insert (6).
•
To fit the replacement table insert, proceed in reverse order.
7.5 Fitting & replacing the Saw Blade - Fig. 4
Important! Pull out the power plug first.
•
Remove the Table Insert by undoing the two Countersunk Screws - see 6.4.
•
Undo the nut with a 24mm wrench on the nut itself and a second 10mm wrench on the motor shaft
to apply counter-pressure.
•
Important! Turn the nut in the direction of rotation of the Saw Blade.
•
Take off the outer flange and pull the old Saw Blade off the inner flange by dropping the blade at
an angle.
•
Clean the blade flange thoroughly before fitting the new Saw Blade.
•
Mount and fasten the new Saw Blade in reverse order.
•
Important! Note the running direction. The cutting angle of the teeth must point in the running
direction, i.e. forwards (see the arrow on the Saw Blade Guard).
•
Refit and set the Riving Knife (5) and the Saw Blade Guard (2) - see 6.2, 6.3.
•
Check to make sure that all safety devices are properly mounted and in good working condition
before you begin working with the saw again.

• Use the Screws (a), Nuts (d) and Washers (c) to fasten the Table Width Extensions (33) loosely to the
Saw Table (1).
