ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
CHECK AND ALIGN THE RIVING KNIFE AND SAW BLADE (FIG.31-32)
If the riving knife is out of alignment with the saw blade, adjustment is needed.
• Unplug the saw.
• Raise the saw blade by turning the height adjusting knob clockwise.
• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard assembly. Place a framing
square or straight edge against both the saw blade and the riving knife.
(see Fig. 31)
NOTE: Place framing square between carbide teeth and measure from blade.
This step will insure framing square is square against blade from the front to back
of blade.
• The saw blade and riving knife are aligned when the framing square contacts both
the blade and splitter evenly with no gaps.
TO ADJUST
• Remove the anti-kickback pawls and blade guard assembly.
• Loosen the screws holding the mounting bracket. (see Fig. 32)
• Reposition the riving knife left or right as needed to align the riving knife with the
saw blade.
• Once properly aligned, securely retighten the screws.
NOTE: The blade guard and riving kinfe must always be correctly aligned so that
the cut workpiece will pass on either side of the plitter without binding or twisting to
the side.
WARNING: Improper riving knife alignment can cause kickback and serious
injury.
ADJUSTING THE REAR TABLE EXTENSION
• When ripping a short workpiece, the rear extension table should be positioned as
close to the rear of the main table as possible.
• When ripping a long workpiece that requires extra support as the cut is completed,
the rear extension table should be pulled out as far as possible, until the locating
seat prevents it from moving out any further.
CAUTION: PIECES OVER 24" (0.6M) SHOULD BE HELD BY TWO PERSONS
OR ROLLER TO ACCEPT THE CUT PIECES.
INSTALLING AND USING THE RIP FENCE (FIG.33-34)
• The rip fence can be used on either side of the saw blade.
• The fence (1) is moved by lifting the handle (2) and sliding the fence to the
desired.
• Position the fence on the right side of the table, along the edge of the mitre gauge
groove.
• Lock the fence handle. The fence should be parallel with the mitre gauge groove.
• If adjustment is needed in order to make the fence parallel to the groove, follow
these step:
• Loosen the two bolts (3), and lift the handle (2).
• Hold the fence bracket (4) firmly against the front of the saw blade. Move the
far end of the fence until it is parallel with the mitre gauge groove.
• Push the handle down to lock it, and tighten both screws.
• If fence is loose when handle is in the lock (down) position, follow these steps:
• Lift the handle (2) and turn the adjusting nut (5) clockwise until the rear clamp
is snug. Do not turn the adjusting screw more than 1/4 turn at a time.
• Over-tightening the adjusting screw could bend the rear clamping lever, which
may cause the fence to come out of alignment.
