e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
ASSEMBLY
Inserting the Braces
The V-Shaped Braces (F) are required ONLY if you have
the Triton Height Winder Kit installed.
Join both pairs of V-shaped braces together, as shown
in (i), using the screws and nuts supplied. Insert them
into the two long pockets on the underside of the Dust
Bag main flap, pointed side up (ii). Insert the flat brace
into the remaining pocket, as shown in (iii).
Fitting the Bag
Place the main flap squarely over the saw chassis,
lining up the round hole with the red locking catch.
(Fig.1) Set the saw blade at full depth and extend the
foam slot to about 20mm in front of the blade, using
scissors as shown.
Feed the saw's power cord out through the motor
sleeve, then fit the bag from below, ensuring the sleeve
is on the same side as the motor. Slide the sleeve along
the motor as far as possible to prevent it falling off in
use. If necessary shorten the sleeve by rolling it back
to avoid excess material obstructing the cooling air
intake. (Fig.2)
(If you have fitted a Triton Saw Stabilising Bracket, you
may need to re-locate the rubber cushion strip and
outer band clamp further along the motor for more
secure sleeve access.)
Wrap the sub-flap over the bearing channel and attach
it to the top section of the bag using the hook and loop
facings. Fold the main flap across the saw and onto the
sub-flap, lining up the hook and loop facings. (Fig.3)
Push the four foam pieces into the bearing channels.
Fit the table, ensuring the saw chassis is locked in
position.
Fit the pouch over the stiffener ring at the bottom of the
dust bag and use the tab to tighten it. (Fig. 4)
Hook and loop seams in two of the corners allow
access for saw adjustments.
Connecting the Hoses
Screw the Bayonet Connector onto the hose (note: left-
hand thread), and fit it to the dust port in the overhead
guard. (Fig 5)
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
If you have the optional Triton Dust Collector (DCA300),
push fit the other end of the hose into one of the dust
inlets. If extracting dust directly into your vacuum
cleaner, screw the Tapered Connector onto the hose
and push the wand of your vacuum cleaner into it. (Fig.
6)
Inserting the Saw Slot Infill Plug
(Series 2000 Workcentres only)
With the saw blade set at full height, push the plug into
the saw slot just in front of the blade. Ensure the plug is
flush with the table.
Position the overhead guard support until it just clears
the back of the saw blade. This dramatically reduces
the amount of dust escaping. Rotate the blade by hand
to ensure the teeth do not hit the guard support.
