Install the new blade. Make sure the rotation
arrow on the blade matches the clockwise
rotation arrow on the upper guard.
Note: The blade teeth should always point
downward at the front of the saw.
• Install the outer blade flange
and flange bolt. (Fig. 39)
• Lock the arbor and tighten the arbor
screw using moderate force, but do
not overtighten.
• Ensure the Hex Key is removed and the
arbor lock has released before proceeding.
• Ensure the blade guard is fully functional
before using the machine.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
OF THE PRECISION ANGLES
Note: This machine has been accurately
set up and adjusted at the factory. If it is
suspected that some of the precision angles
have been lost (due perhaps to normal
workshop attrition) they can be reset by
following the procedure outlined below.
Note: Several checks/adjustments are possible
on this machine. The operator will require a set
square (not supplied) to carry out these checks
and adjustments.
WARNING: Checks/adjustments must
only be conducted with the machine
disconnected from the power supply.
BEVEL ANGLES (0˚ & 45˚)
0˚ Bevel Stop Adjustment
Ensure that the cutting head is in the locked
down position with the latching pin fully
engaged in its socket.
Ensure that the cutting head is upright,
against its stop and the bevel pointer is
indicating 0˚ on the scale. (Fig. 23)
Place the set square on the table with one
edge against the table and the other edge
against the blade (avoiding the TCT tips).
(Fig. 24)
If the blade is blade is not at 90 degrees
(square) with the rotary table, then
adjustment maybe required.
• Loosen the bevel lock handle and tilt the
cutting head to the left.
• Loosen the locknut on the Bevel Angle
adjustment screw. (Fig. 25)
• Use a Hex Key to turn the screw in or out to
adjust the blade angle.
• Return the cutting head to its upright
position and recheck the angular alignment
against the set square.
• Repeat the above steps until correct angular
alignment is achieved.
• Tighten the Bevel Angle Adjustment
locknut securely.
0˚ Bevel Pointer Adjustment
Note: The operator must be satisfied that the
blade is set exactly perpendicular to the table
when in the upright position and against its stop.
• If the pointer is not in exact alignment
with the 0˚ mark on the protractor scale
adjustment is necessary.
• Loosen the Bevel Pointer screw using a #2
Phillips screwdriver. (Fig. 26)
• Adjust the Bevel Pointer so that it is in
alignment exactly with the 0˚ mark.
• Retighten the screw.
45˚ Bevel Stop Adjustment
• Loosen the bevel lock handle and tilt the
cutting head completely to the left until it
rests against the 45˚ stop.
• Use a set square to see if it at 45 degrees to
the Rotary table (avoid the TCT tips).
• If the saw blade is not in exact alignment
adjustment is necessary.
• Return the cutting head to its
upright position.
• Loosen the locknut on the 45˚ Bevel
adjustment screw.
• Use a Hex Key to adjust the adjustment screw
in or out as required. (Fig. 27)
• Tilt the cutting head to the 45˚ setting and
recheck for alignment with the set square.
• Repeat the above steps until the correct
angular alignment is achieved.
• Tighten the adjustment screw locknut
securely once alignment is achieved
