Parallel Adjustment (Fig. A, J, K, P, Q)

WARNING: A misaligned fence, not parallel to the blade,
increases the risk of kickback!
For optimum performance, the blade must be parallel to the
rip fence. This adjustment has been made at the factory. To
re-adjust:
Position 1 Fence Alignment
1. Install the fence in position 1 and unlock the rail lock
lever
5
. Locate both locator pins
29
that support the fence
on the front and rearrails.
2. Loosen the rear locator pin screw and adjust the alignment
of the fence in the groove until the fence face is parallel to
the blade. Make sure you measure from the fence face to
the front and back of the blade to ensurealignment.
3. Tighten the locator screw and repeat on the left side of
theblade.
4. Check rip scale pointer adjustment(Fig.K).
Position 2 Fence Alignment
1. To align position 2 fence locator pins
29
, ensure
position 1 pins have been aligned, refer to Position 1
FenceAlignment.
2. Loosen the position 2 pins, then using the blade wrench
holes as a guide for positioning, align the pins(Fig.Q).
3. Tighten the locator pins(front and rear).
Adjusting the Rip Scale (Fig. A, K)
1. Unlock the rail lock lever
5
.
2. Set the blade at 0° bevel and move the fence in until it
touches theblade.
3. Lock the rail locklever.
4. Loosen the rip scale indicator screws
31
and set the rip
scale indicator to read zero(0). Retighten the rip scale
indicator screws. The yellow rip scale(top) reads correctly
only when the fence is mounted on the right side of
the blade and is in position 1(for zero to 62 cm ripping)
not the 82.5 cm rip position. The white scale(bottom)
reads correctly only when the fence is mounted on the
right side of the blade and in position 2(for 20.3 cm to
82.5cmripping).
The rip scale reads correctly only when the fence is mounted to
the right of theblade.
Rail Lock Adjustment (Fig. A, L)
The rail lock has been factory-set. If you need to re-adjust,
proceed as follows:
1. Lock the rail lock lever
5
.
2. On the underside of the saw, loosen the jam nut
33
.
3. Tighten the hex rod
34
until the spring on the locking
system is compressed creating the desired tension on the
rail lock lever. Retighten the jam nut against the hexrod.
4. Flip the saw over and check that the fence does not move
when the lock lever is engaged. If the fence is still loose,
tighten the springfurther.
Bevel Stop and Pointer Adjustment (Fig. M)
1. Raise the blade fully by rotating the blade height
adjustment wheel
6
clockwise until itstops.
2. Unlock the bevel lock lever
7
by pushing it up and to the
right. Loosen the bevel stop screw
36
.
3. Place a square flat against the table top and against the
blade between teeth. Ensure the bevel lock lever is in its
unlocked, or upposition.
4. Using the bevel lock lever, adjust the bevel angle until the
blade is flat against thesquare.
5. Tighten the bevel lock lever by pushing itdown.
6. Turn the bevel stop cam
35
until it firmly contacts the
bearing block. Tighten the bevel stop screw
36
.
7. Check the bevel angle scale. If the pointer does not read 0°,
loosen pointer screw
37
and move the pointer so it reads
correctly. Retighten the pointerscrew.
8. Repeat at 45°, but do not adjustpointer.
Mitre Gauge Adjustment (Fig. A)
To adjust mitre gauge
10
loosen knob, set to desired angle and
tightenknob.

excessively worn blades.The maximum rotation speed
of the tool must not exceed that of the sawblade.
• Do not attempt to cut excessively smallpieces.
• Allow the blade to cut freely. Do notforce.
• Allow the motor to reach full speed beforecutting.
