TRACKING THE BLADE
See page 137.
NOTE: Adjust blade tension properly before making tracking
adjustments.
To adjust:
1. Disconnect the product from the power outlet.
2. Loosen the upper and lower front cover lock knobs.
Open the upper and lower front cover.
3. Watch the blade's position on the upper tire as, by hand,
you slowly turn the upper wheel clockwise. If the blade
moves away from the centre of the tire, the tracking must
be adjusted.
If the blade has moved left or right of centre:
1. Turn the blade tracking adjustment knob (clockwise
if blade has moved left; counterclockwise if blade has
moved right) while turning the wheel by hand until the
blade moves back and rides in the centre of the tire.
2. Check the position of the blade on the lower tire. The
blade should be completely on the tire (gullet of the
blade teeth in the centre). If not, adjust the tracking until
the blade is on both tires.
3. Rotate the upper wheel by hand in a clockwise direction
for a few more turns. Make sure the blade stays in the
same location on the tires. Readjust, if necessary, until
blade is tracking properly.
4. Close the upper and lower front covers. Tighten the front
cover lock knobs.
5. Switch on the product.
Verify that the saw blade is centred on the tire (through the
tracking view window). If not centred, repeat above steps.
ADJUSTING THE THRUST BEARINGS
See page 138-139.
The thrust bearings support the back edge of the blade
during cutting. The blade should not contact the thrust
bearings when you stop cutting. It is important that both
upper and lower thrust bearings be adjusted equally.
1. Disconnect the product from power outlet.
2. Using a hex key, loosen the thrust bearing lock screw.
3. Adjust the position of the thrust bearing. The thrust
bearing should be 0.5 mm from the back of the saw
blade. Use a feeler gauge to check the distance.
4. Tighten the thrust bearing lock screw.
ADJUSTING THE BLADE GUIDES
See page 138-139.
1. Disconnect the product from power outlet.
2. Using a hex key, loosen both blade guide lock screws.
3. Adjust the positions of the blade guides. The blade
guides should be 0.25 mm from the saw blade. Use a
feeler gauge to check the distance.
4. Tighten both blade guide lock screws.
ADJUSTING THE BLADE GUIDE SUPPORTS
See page 138-139.
1. Disconnect the product from power outlet.
2. Using a hex key, loosen the blade guide support lock screw.
3. Adjust the position of the blade guide support. The front
edge of the blade guide support should be 6.5 mm from
the blade teeth gullet.
4. Tighten the blade guide support lock screw.
SETTING BEVEL TO 45°
See page 143.
When setting the table to an angle near 45°, follow the
instruction below to remove the angle plate from the work table.
1. Using a hex key, loosen the screws fixing the angle plate.
2. Remove the metal plate from the work table. Always
keep the screws on the plate.
3. Replace the metal plate and tighten the screws after the
bevel cutting operation.
REPLACING THE BLADE
See page 144-145.
Replace the blade after 4 hours of cutting softwood, or 2
hours of cutting hardwood.
1. Disconnect the product from power outlet.
2. Loosen the front cover lock knobs. Open the upper and
lower front covers.
3. Remove the bolt, washers and wing nut on the work table.
4. Loosen the blade guide assembly lock knob. Rotate
the blade guard adjustment knob clockwise to lower the
blade guard.
5. Open the flap on the blade guard. Lift the blade tension
adjustment lever.
6. Carefully remove the blade. Wear safety gloves.
7. Observe the correct teeth direction of the new blade.
Insert the blade through the table opening and blade
guides, and place it around the wheels.
NOTE: The blade may need to be turned inside out if the
teeth are pointing in the wrong direction. Hold the blade with
both hands and rotate it inward.
8. Close the flap on the blade guard. Lock the blade
tension adjustment lever.
9. Track the blade, adjust both upper and lower blade
guides, blade guide supports and thrust bearings as
instructed in this manual.
10. Reinstall the bolt, washers and wing nut on the work table.
11. Close the upper and lower front covers. Tighten the front
cover lock knobs.
ADJUSTING THE DRIVE BELT TENSION
See page 146.
1. Disconnect the product from power outlet.
2. Loosen the lower front cover lock knob. Open the lower
front cover.
3. Loosen the hex screw above the motor housing. Do not
remove it.
4. Move the motor housing to the left or right to decrease or
increase drive belt tension respectively.
5. The belt is properly tensioned when moderate finger
pressure on the belt between the two pulleys causes a
12-13 mm deflection.
6. Tighten the hex screw above the motor housing.
CUTTING TIPS
Scroll cutting and circle cutting
For general type scroll cutting, follow the pattern lines by
pushing and turning the workpiece at the same time. Do not
try to turn the workpiece while engaged in the blade without
pushing it – the workpiece could bind or twist the blade.
The smallest diameter circle that can be cut is determined
by blade width. A 6.35 mm (1/4") wide blade will cut a
minimum diameter of 38 mm (1-1/2").
HANDLING JAMMED MATERIAL
In case of a jam, following the instructions below:
1. Turn off the product. Wait until the product has come to
a complete stop.
2. Disconnect the product from the power outlet.
3. Carefully remove the workpiece from the blade along the cut.
WARNING! Never remove jammed cutoff pieces until
the blade has come to a full and complete stop.
