FOR PORTABLE USE:
• Mount the saw on a 18mm thick piece of
plywood or MDF (800mm x 500mm min size
recommended) using appropriate fastenings (not
supplied).
• It may be necessary to countersink the washers,
nuts, etc. to the underside of the plywood or MDF
mounting board to avoid an uneven work surface.
• Use G-clamps to attach the mounting board to the
work surface. (Fig. 2)
HOLD DOWN CLAMP (Fig. 3)
Two sockets (one either side) are incorporated into
the rear of the machines fence. These sockets are for
positioning the Hold Down Clamp.
• Fit the clamp to the retaining socket that best
suits the cutting application, ensuring that it is fully
pushed down.
• Tighten the fence thumbscrew to lock the pillar of
the clamp into the fence socket.
• Place the workpiece to be cut onto the saw table,
against the fence and in the desired position.
• Adjust the clamp using the thumbscrews and
knob so that it securely holds the workpiece to the
saw table.
Conduct a ‘dry run’ with the power disconnected.
Ensure that the Hold Down Clamp does not interfere
with the path of the blade, or with the path of any other
part of the Cutting Head as it is lowered
THE SLIDING UPPER FENCE SECTION
The Left Hand side of the Fence has an adjustable
upper section. Adjustment may be necessary to
provide clearance for the moving Cutting Head when
acute bevel or compound angles are selected.
To adjust the Fence:
• Loosen the thumbscrew. (Fig. 4)
• Slide the upper section of the Fence leftwards to
the required position and tighten the thumbscrew.
• Conduct a ‘dry run’ with the power off to confirm
that there is no interference between moving
parts as the Cutting Head is lowered.
