5.7.4. tighten the blade bevel locking knob (fig.1.12). Place a square between the saw table and the saw blade.
5.7.5. If the angle is not exactly 90°, loosen the adjusting bolt slightly, reposition and then re-tighten it. the adjusting bolt is located under the
front of the table top, just above the blade bevel locking knob on the left hand side.
5.7.6. It may be necessary to slacken the blade bevel locking knob (fig.1.12) again and adjust the blade bevel adjustment knob (fig.1.11)
again, in order to move the saw blade a little further to the left and re-check the angle is correct.
5.7.7. now turn the blade bevel adjustment knob (fig.1.11) to the right until the arrow points to 45°.
5.7.8. tighten the blade bevel locking knob again.
5.7.9. Place a 45° angle between the saw table and the saw blade.
5.7.10. If the angle is not exactly 45° you can adjust it with the adjusting bolt in a similar way to the procedure described above. the adjusting
bolt is located under the front of the table top, just above the blade bevel locking knob on the right hand side.
Important: Be sure to secure the selected angle setting by tightening the blade bevel locking knob (fig.1.12) before you start to use the
saw.
5.8.
Making bevel cuts
5.8.1. Always use the fence when cutting bevels.
5.8.2. set the saw blade to the required angle by slackening the blade bevel locking knob (fig.1.12) and then turn the blade bevel adjustment
wheel (fig.1.11) until the indicator points to the required angle on the bevel scale (fig.1.13). securely tighten the blade bevel locking
knob (fig.1.12).
5.8.3. set the fence to suit the width of the workpiece.
5.8.4. carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece width.
5.8.5. use the push stick for guiding the workpiece if hand gets to within 125 mm of the saw blade.
5.9.
Using the mitre gauge and making cross cuts
5.9.1. slide the mitre gauge (fig.1.7) into one of the two slots on the saw table top (fig.1.1).
5.9.2. slacken the knurled knob on the mitre gauge, adjust mitre gauge until the arrow points to the required angle, tighten the knurled knob.
5.9.3. Press the workpiece firmly against the mitre gauge and switch on the saw.
5.9.4. Push the mitre gauge and the workpiece together towards the saw blade in order to make the cut.
important: Always hold the guided part of the workpiece. never hold the part of the workpiece that will become the off-cut.
5.9.5. Always push the mitre gauge far enough forward for the workpiece to be cut through completely.
5.9.6. switch the saw off and wait for the saw blade to stop before removing any off-cuts.
note: when making compound cuts (combination of both bevel and cross cut) - use the lower slot for the mitre gauge which prevents
hands and the mitre gauge coming into contact with the saw blade.
important: do not push the rip fence too far towards the saw blade. the minimum distance between the rip fence and the saw blade
should be 20 mm.
6. REPLACinG BLAdE And dRiVE BELT
Caution: switch the machine off and unplug from the
power supply before carrying out any maintenance work,
saw blade or drive belt replacements.
6.1.
Replacing the saw blade
6.1.1. remove the saw blade guard (fig.1.8) by unscrewing the
wing nut and removing the bolt, then lift off the guard.
detach the removable table top section (fig.1.4) by
undoing the two screws securing it and take out the
section. slacken and remove the bolt holding the riving
knife (fig.1.3) in place and remove the riving knife.
6.1.2. use an open-ended 13mm spanner on the flats of the
spindle to hold in place.
6.1.3. use an open-ended 24mm spanner to undo the blade nut
by turning in an anti-clockwise direction and remove nut
and flange, note which way flange faces.
6.1.4. turn blade depth adjustment wheel (fig.1.10) clockwise
until the saw blade is at the minimum cutting depth, so that
it is easier to remove the blade.
6.1.5. remove the saw blade from the inner flange and lift it
clear.
6.1.6. carefully clean the saw blade flange before fitting a new
or re-sharpened saw blade.
6.1.7. Insert and secure the saw blade in reverse order. ensure saw blade is fitted in the correct direction. the cutting edge of the teeth
should point in the running direction,see the arrow on the saw blade and saw blade guard.
6.1.8. re-fit and re-set the riving knife, the removeable table top section and the saw blade guard.
6.1.9. Before using the saw again, check that all safety devices are in good working order.
6.1.10. Important: After replacing the saw blade, make sure the saw blade runs freely by turning the blade carefully by hand.
6.1.11. connect to power supply and run the saw with no load before using it to cut any materials.
6.2.
Changing the drive belt
6.2.1. remove the saw blade (see sections 6.1.1. - 6.1.9. above).
6.2.2. Place a large flat screwdriver against the drive belt.
6.2.3. using a 13mm open ended spanner placed on the flats of the saw blade spindle, turn the spindle so that the drive belt is forced off the
motor drive wheel by the screwdriver.
6.2.4. remove drive belt from large wheel.
6.2.5. Place new drive belt over large wheel.
6.2.6. using a screwdriver to feed drive belt around the motor drive wheel, slowly turn the saw blade spindle with the spanner until the drive
belt is fully fitted to both wheels, ensuring that the drive belt has engaged into the grooves on the wheels.
6.2.7. refit the saw blade, riving knife and blade guard etc.
6.2.8. Important: After replacing the drive belt, make sure the saw blade runs freely by turning the blade carefully by hand.
6.2.9. connect to power supply and run the saw with no load before using it to cut any materials.
