Unpacking the saw and its parts (fig. B1 - B6)
The recesses (19) in the housing have been provided to facilitate
transportation (fig. B1).
• Remove the saw from the packaging material carefully.
• Turn the saw upside down (fig. B2).
• Cut the straps holding the shipping blocks to the machine (fig. B3).
• Remove the straps and shipping blocks.
• Pull out the material box (fig. B4).
• With the blade in ripping position i.e. locked in the centre of the table,
turn the saw on its side as shown (fig. B5).
• Mount the riving knife (8) as described below.
• Put the saw into the upright position.
• Put the push stick (14) on its place in the slot provided at the front face
of the machine (fig. B6).
Always keep the push stick in its place when not in use.
Mounting and adjusting the riving knife (fig. C1 - C8)
The mounting position of the riving knife depends on the blade size: slot
(20) to facilitate small blades, slot (21) to facilitate large blades (fig C1).
The correct position is for the body radius of the riving knife (8) to be a
maximum of 5 mm from the tips of the saw blade teeth (fig. C2).
• With the saw on its side, lower the blade by loosening the blade level
locking ring (10) and turning the combined elevating and traverse
handle (6) counterclockwise. Retighten the blade level locking ring (fig. C3).
• Loosen the screws (24 & 25) (fig. C4). Remove the blade guard (26) by
first lifting the upper part (fig. C5), then sliding the guard forward to
clear the open-ended slots (27) for lifting of the lower part (fig. C6).
• Entering from the table top, insert the riving knife (8) into the table insert
(2) (fig. C7).
• The riving knife (8) is clamped to a bracket by 13 mm bolts (28).
Using the 13 mm spanner (29), loosen the bolts (28) and adjust the
position of the riving knife as required.
• Retighten the bolts (28) securely.
• Replace the blade arbor protection guard (26) by first placing the open-
ended slots (27) over the screws (25), then sliding the guard rearward
to align the recesses (30) for placement over the screws (24) (fig. C8).
• Retighten the screws (24 & 25).
Mounting the upper blade guard (fig. C9)
The upper guard (3) is held in place by one M6 screw and nut.
• With the saw in the upright position, secure the guard to the riving knife
using the nut (31) and bolt (32) provided.
• The guard does not need further adjustment. Guided through the slot
in the riving knife the guard can move up and down freely, thus always
following the exact thickness of the workpiece.
Fitting the combined rip and mitre fence (fig. D1 - D8 & E1 - E6)
Your saw bench is provided with dovetailed grooves on all four sides to
accept all accessories and the combined rip and mitre fence.
The combined rip and mitre fence (4) is composed of two aluminium
profiles joined by a mitre quadrant (33) (fig. D1). The longer profile is the
fence (34) and the shorter profile is the fence support (35) which fastens to
the fence bracket (7) (fig. D2). The quadrant has locating positions at 0°,
15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 90° left and right, and is locked with the
quadrant locking knob (36) (fig. D3).
The fence (34) is reversible: the workpiece can be guided along the 80 mm
or along the 11 mm face to allow the use of a push stick when ripping thin
workpieces.
• To set for 11 mm, loosen the fence clamping knob (37) and slide the
fence (34) out of the quadrant (33).
• Turn the fence and re-engage the quadrant in the slot as shown
(fig. D4). Guide the workpiece along the low face (38).
• To use with the full height of 80 mm, slide the fence into the quadrant
with the wide face (39) in the vertical position (fig. D5).

Fitting the combined rip and mitre fence for ripping mode (fig. D6 - D8)
The combined rip and mitre fence (4) can be used in two different ways to
perform this cut.
Bracket on front dovetail: Fence and fence support aligned with blade
• Present the bracket to the end of the dovetail (40) on the front edge of
the table (1) and slide it on as shown (fig. D6).
• Slide the fence support into the fence bracket (7) and lock with the
fence support locking knob (41) located at the right-hand side of the
fence bracket.
• Slide the fence bracket to the required position and tighten the locking
knob (42) located at the bottom side of the fence bracket.
• To adjust the position of the fence, release the fence clamping knob
(37) on the mitre quadrant (33) and slide the fence (34) to the required
position (fig. D7).
Bracket on right-hand side dovetail:
Fence and fence support at right angles
• Present the bracket with the fence attached to it to the end of the
dovetail (40) on the right-hand side of the table (1) and slide it on as
shown (fig. D6).
• Set the quadrant (33) at 0° to align the fence parallel with the blade
(fig. D8).
• Check the accuracy by placing the fence against the blade.
• For stability, position the fence bracket and support midway along the
length of the fence.
• Tighten the locking knob (42) located at the bottom side of the fence
bracket (fig. D6).
Fitting the fence for blade traverse mode - Cross and mitre cuts (fig. E1 - E5)
The combined rip and mitre fence (4) can be used in two different ways to
perform cross and mitre cuts.
Bracket on front dovetail: Fence and fence support at right angles
• Install the combined rip and mitre fence in the dovetail on the table
front, to the left of the blade (fig. E1).
• Unlock the quadrant locking knob (36) and set the quadrant pointer to 0°.
• The fence is now at 90° to the blade and should be positioned to allow
the blade to traverse freely past the end.
• Tighten the locking knob (36).
• Hold the workpiece against the fence and pull the blade through to
perform a cross-cut.
• For mitre cuts, set the required angle on the quadrant (33) (fig. E2).
• To operate the traverse with the left hand, slide the fence bracket along
the front of the table, with the fence support retracted (fig. E3), to the
right of the blade. Left of the blade is more suitable to operate the
traverse with the right hand.
For optimum safety, clamp the workpiece to the fence when
cross-cutting.
Bracket on left-hand side dovetail: Fence and fence support aligned
• Unlock and remove the combined rip and mitre fence.
• Slide the complete assembly with the bracket onto the dovetail on the
left-hand side of the table (fig. E4).
• Unlock the quadrant locking knob (36) and set the fence to the
required angle (fig. E5).
• Re-lock the quadrant locking knob.
• Unlock the fence clamping knob (37) and position the fence to give
maximum support. Make sure that the blade will not cut the fence!
• Position the fence at such a distance from the blade that the workpiece
to be cross-cut does not touch the blade. Then lock in position with
the fence bracket locking knob (42).
