Adjustments for Mitre Saw Mode
Your mitre saw was accurately adjusted at the factory. If readjustment due
to shipping and handling or any other reason is required, follow the steps
below to adjust your saw. Once made, these adjustments should remain
accurate.
CHANGING FROM SAW BENCH TO MITRE SAW MODE (FIG. 1, 2)
To Raise the Saw Head to its Highest Position
– Push down on the saw bench table (w) and hold out the lock-down
pin (cc).
– Still holding the saw bench table, release the downward pressure and
allow the saw head to rise to its full height.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE BLADE TO THE FENCE (FIG. 1, 7A, 7B)
1. Loosen the mitre knob (m) and depress the mitre latch (n) to release the
mitre arm (l).
2. Swing the mitre arm until the latch locates it at the 0° mitre position. Do
not tighten the knob.
3. Pull down the saw head until the blade just enters the saw kerf (k).
4. Place a square (rr) on the fixed table (i) and up against the blade (f).
5. Tighten the mitre knob securely.
WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with the
square.
6. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
– Loosen the mitre scale screws (ss) and move the scale/mitre
arm assembly left or right until the blade is at 90° to the fence as
measured with the square.
– Retighten the screws (ss). Pay no attention to the reading of the
mitre pointer at this point.
ADJUSTING THE MITRE POINTER (FIG. 7B)
1. Loosen the mitre knob (m) and depress the mitre latch (n) to release the
mitre arm (l).
2. Move the mitre arm to set the mitre pointer (tt) to the zero position, as
shown in figure 7B.
3. Observe the pointer (tt) and mitre scale (o). If the pointer does not
indicate exactly zero, loosen the mitre pointer screw (uu), move the
pointer to read 0° and tighten the screw.
4. Tighten mitre knob (m) securely.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE BLADE TO THE TABLE (FIG. 1, 3, 7C, 7D)
1. Loosen the bevel clamp handle (jj).
2. Press the saw head to the right to ensure it is fully vertical and tighten
the bevel clamp handle.
3. Pull down the head until the blade just enters the saw kerf (k).
4. Place a square (rr) against the left side of the fence and blade (f).
WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with the
square.
5. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
– Loosen the bevel clamp handle (jj) and turn the vertical position
adjustment stop screw (xx) (using the T30 star wrench) in or out until
the blade is at 90° to the table as measured with the square.
– If the bevel pointer (dd) does not indicate zero on the bevel scale
(ee), loosen the screw (ww) that secures the pointer and move the
pointer as necessary.
6. Tighten bevel clamp handle (jj) securely.
ADJUSTING THE FENCE (FIG. 1)
The upper part of the left side of the fence can be adjusted to the left to
provide clearance, allowing the saw to bevel to a full 45° left.
To Adjust the Fence
1. Loosen the left-side fence clamping knob (u) and slide the fence (p) to
the left.
32
2. Make a dry run with the saw switched off and check for clearance.
Adjust the fence to be as close to the blade as practical to provide
maximum workpiece support, without interfering with the up and down
movement of the arm.
3. Tighten the knob securely.
WARNING: The fence guide groove (t) can become clogged
with sawdust. Using low pressure air, blow dirt and dust to clear
the fence guide groove.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE BEVEL ANGLE (FIG. 7C, 7D)
1. Loosen the left side fence clamping knob (u) and slide the upper part of
the left side fence to the left as far as it will go.
2. Loosen the bevel clamp handle (jj) and move the saw head all the way
to the left. This is the 45° bevel position.
3. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
– Turn the bevel adjust stop screw (v v) using the T30 star wrench in or
out as necessary until the bevel pointer (dd) indicates 45°.
WARNING: While performing this adjustment, it is advisable to
take the weight of the saw head by holding it. This will make it
easier to turn the adjustment screw.
Adjustments for Saw Bench Mode
CHANGING FROM MITRE SAW TO SAW BENCH MODE (FIG. 1, 2)
1. Put the blade into 0˚ cross-cut position with the mitre knob (m) secured.
2. Lock the saw head into its lowest position by pressing the head lock-up
release lever (c) to lower the head, then push the head lock-down pin
(cc) into place.
3. To fit the parallel rip fence (zz), refer to Mounting and Adjusting the
Parallel Rip Fence.
ADJUSTING THE RIVING KNIFE (FIG. 1, 8A, 8B)
The correct position is for the top of the riving knife (x) to be no more than
2 mm below the highest tooth of the blade and the body of the radius to be
a maximum of 5 mm from the tips of the saw blade teeth.
1. Raise the saw head to its highest position.
2. Set the saw bench table halfway to access the two screws which are
holding the riving knife.
3. Loosen the 2 screws (yy) with the T40 star wrench to allow the riving
knife to move up and down.
4. Slide the riving knife (x) either up or down until the correct position is
attained.
5. Retighten the two screws (yy) firmly.
ADJUSTING THE SAW BENCH TABLE (FIG. 1, 2)
The table (w) slides up and down manually and is held at the required height
with two locking knobs.
1. Loosen table locking knobs 1 and 2 (bb, e), but do not remove them.
2. Set the table to the height needed.
3. First, tighten table locking knob 1 (bb), then secure the table in position
with table locking knob 2 (e).
MOUNTING AND ADJUSTING THE PARALLEL RIP FENCE (FIG. 1, 9A–9C)
1. Adjust the saw bench table (w) to its lowest position. Refer to Adjusting
the Saw Bench Table.
2. Slide the rip fence assembly bracket (a3) on from the right. The
clamping plate engages behind the front edge of the table.
3. Raise the blade guard and slide the parallel rip fence (zz) up against the
blade.
4. Push the rip fence assembly lever (a2) down to secure the fence in
place.
5. Check that the fence (zz) is parallel to the blade.
6. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
– Loosen the rip fence assembly adjustment knob (a1) fastening the
fence bracket to the fence support (a7).
– Adjust the fence so that it is parallel to the blade by checking the
distance between the blade and the fence at the front and rear of the
blade.
– When the adjustment has been carried out, re-tighten the adjustment
knob and check again that the fence is parallel to the blade.
