• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug with bared copper
conductors is dangerous if engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the correctly
rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked at the connection
points of most good quality plugs. Attach the wires to their respective
points in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2) and Blue is for
Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug ensure that the cable
restraint (3) is holding the outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the
two leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N) wires to the earth pin
marked E or
.
For 115 V tools, use plugs to BS4343 standard.
Using an extension cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved triple-core extension
cable suitable for the power input of this tool (see technical data).
The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.

Bench Mounting (fig. C1 & C2)
15
• Holes (8) are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench mounting.
20
Two different sized holes are provided to accommodate different sizes
-
of bolts (33). Use either hole; it is not necessary to use both.
Always mount your saw firmly to prevent movement. To enhance the
portability, the tool can be mounted to a piece of 12.5 mm or thicker
plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to
other job sites and reclamped.
• When mounting your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that the
mounting screws do not protrude from the bottom of the wood.
The plywood must sit flush on the work support. When clamping the
saw to any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses where
the mounting screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will
interfere with the proper operation of the saw.
