Saw Bench
The Axminster AW10BSB2 and AW12BSB2 Saw Benches are robust machines, constructed largely from
cast iron and heavy gauge steel. The 254mm or 315mm blades give a choice of cutting depth of 75mm
or 100mm, and are amply powered by a 2.2kW or 3kW 1ph induction motors. The cast iron table gives
great strength and rigidity as well as providing a smooth working surface. A full length rip fence, locks
onto rails at the front and back of the table, and is also equiped with a micro positioning adjustment
ensuring straight rip cuts. A mitre fence slides in a T slot groove in the table either side of the blade. Both
the blade height and tilt controls are conveniently located and lock in position. A pressed steel rear feed-
off table is also supplied. Dust extraction is provided on both the crown guard and under the blade for
efficient dust control, a 1,000 m3/hr extractor is recommended. As supplied, these machines are compact
in size but ready for work in the home or light trade workshop. Further options are available. 1, a kit of
two cast iron extension tables that can be fitted either one each side or both to the right of the blade,
complete with longer fence rails, and 2, a fully functioning sliding table kit to allow large board materials
to be cut. When both options are fitted this
saw bench becomes a very useful
machine for most jobs in the
workshop.

    Initial Assembly There is no requirement to remove the guard. The profile of the riving knife precludes the use of the saw for slotting or grooving, and the maximum depth of cut can be achieved with the guard in place. NOTE: The positioning of the extraction hose could be a nuisance if you are cutting big boards, in such a case it is better to remove the hosing from the guard, then there is less risk getting the workpiece snagged and perhaps 'slewing' on the saw.
