ADJUSTMENTS
Your compound mitre saw has been adjusted at the
factory for making very accurate cuts. However, some of
the components might have been jarred out of alignment
during shipping. Also, over a period of time, readjustment
will probably become necessary due to wear.
After unpacking your saw, check the following
adjustments before you begin using saw. Make any
readjustments that are necessary and periodically check
the parts alignment to make sure that your saw is
cutting accurately.
WARNING
To prevent accidental starting that could cause
possible serious personal injury, assemble all
parts to your saw before connecting it to the
power supply. The saw should never be
connected to power supply when you are
assembling parts, making adjustments, installing
or removing blades, or when not in use.
As mentioned previously, your saw has been factory
assembled and adjusted. The dust bag, vice and material
supports are the only parts that have to be installed.
REPLACING BLADE (Fig 10, 11 & 12)
DANGER
A 254 mm x 2.0 mm diameter blade is the
maximum blade capacity of your saw. Never use
a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade
washer to engage with the flats on the spindle.
Larger blades will come in contact with the blade
guards, while thicker blades will prevent the blade
screw from securing the blade on the spindle.
Either of these situations will result in a serious
accident and can cause serious personal injury.
Remove the screw (a) on the link (c) and loosen the
■
philips screw on the blade bolt cover until the lower
blade guard (4) assembly can be raised to expose the
blade bolt (Fig. 10).
Depress the spindle lock button (15) while rotating the
■
blade (Fig. 11).
Loosen screw (a) and outer blade flange (b) to
■
replace the blade (c). Use wrench (d) to loosen the
blade bolt.
Please note: This is a left hand thread, so loosen in a
CLOCKWISE direction (Fig. 12).
Remove the outer blade washer and the blade.
■
Fit the new blade onto the spindle.

Reattach the outer blade flange and secure the blade
■
bolt tightly while depressing the spindle lock button
(Fig. 12).
Replace the blade bolt cover and the lower blade
■
guard in position. Fasten the philips screw on the
blade bolt cover.
Connect the link to the lower blade guard.
■
Check if the blade guard operates correctly before
■
connecting the saw to the power supply.
WARNING
If the inner blade washer has been removed,
replace it before placing blade on spindle. Failure
to do so could cause an accident since the blade
will not tighten properly.
CAUTION
Always install the blade with the blade teeth
pointing in a downward direction.
SQUARING THE SAW BLADE TO THE FENCE
(Fig. 13 – 17)
Unplug your saw.
■
Pull the saw arm all the way down and engage the
■
lock down pin (14) to hold the saw arm in transport
position.
Loosen the mitre lock knob (9) (Fig. 14a).
■
Rotate the mitre table (11) until the mitre pointer (c) is
■
positionned at 0° (Fig. 14a & b).
Securely tighten the mitre lock knob (9).
■
Lay a framing square (a) flat on the mitre table (11).
■
Place one leg of the square against the fence (13).
■
Slide the other leg of the square against the flat part
■
of saw blade (b) (Fig. 14a).
Note: Make sure that the square contacts the flat part
of the saw blade, not the blade teeth.
The edge of the square and the saw blade should be
■
parallel as shown in Fig. 14a.
If the front or back edge of the saw blade angles (a)
■
away from the square as shown in Fig. 15,
adjustment are needed.
Loosen the fence screw (c) (Fig. 13) and the screw
■
(a) (Fig. 2), then remove the sliding fence (24).
Loosen the socket head screws (b) that secure the
■
rear fence (13) to the mitre table (11) (Fig. 13).
Slightly adjust the rear fence (13) left or right until the
■
saw blade is parallel with the square.
Retighten the screws (b) securely and recheck the
■
blade to fence alignment.
