General Instructions for 230V Machines...
The following suggestions will enable you to observe good working practices, keep yourself and fellow workers safe and maintain your tools and equipment in good working order.
Good Working Practices/Safety
Mains Powered Tools
WARNING!!
!
KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT OUT OF THE REACH OF YOUNG CHILDREN
Primary Precautions
These machines are supplied with a moulded 13 Amp. Plug and 3 core power cable. Before using the machine inspect the cable and the plug to make sure that neither are damaged. If any damage is visible, have the damaged item inspected/repaired by a suitably qualified person. If it is necessary to replace the plug, it is preferable to use an 'unbreakable' type that will resist damage on site. Only use a 13 Amp plug, and make sure the cable clamp is tightened securely.

General Instructions for 230V Machines...
Work Place/Environment
The machine is not designed for sub-aqua operation, do not use when or where it is liable to get wet. If the machine is to be used outside and it starts to rain (unusual though this would be in U.K.), stop work and move it inside. If machine has got wet; dry it off as soon as possible, with a cloth or paper towel.
DO NOT use 230V a.c. powered machines anywhere within a site area that is flooded or puddled, and do not trail extension cables across wet areas.
Keep the machine clean; it will enable you to more easily see any damage that may have occurred. Clean the machine with a damp soapy cloth if needs be, do not use any solvents or cleaners, as these may cause damage to any plastic parts or to the electrical components.
Keep the work area as uncluttered as is practical, this includes personnel as well as material.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD CHILDREN BE
ALLOWED IN WORK AREAS
!
It is good practice to leave the machine unplugged until work is about to commence, also make sure to unplug the machine when it is not in use, or unattended. Always disconnect by pulling on the plug body and not the cable. Once you are ready to commence work, remove any tools used in the setting operations (if any) and place safely out of the way. Re-connect the machine. It is also recommended that you use switched supply outlets.
Carry out a final check e.g. check the cutting tool, drill bit, saw blade etc., is securely tightened in the machine, check you have the correct speed and function set, check that the cutting path of the timber is unobstructed, etc..
Most machines these days are fitted with NVR contact switches so that machines cannot remain inadvertently switched 'ON'. However, it is a good habit to train yourself to check that the machine is not 'Switched On' prior to connecting the mains supply. (In case you happen to be using one of the older machines).
Make sure you are comfortable before you start work, balanced, not reaching etc..
If the work you are carrying out is liable to generate flying grit, dust or chips, wear the appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves, masks etc.. If the work operation appears to be excessively noisy, wear ear-defenders. If you wear your hair in a long style, wearing a cap, safety helmet, hairnet, even a sweatband, will minimise the possibility of your hair being caught up in the rotating parts of the machine, likewise, consideration should be given to the removal of rings and wristwatches, if these are liable to be a 'snag' hazard. Consideration should also be given to non-slip footwear, etc.
DO NOT work with cutting or boring machines of any description if you are tired, your attention is wandering or you are being subjected to distraction. A deep cut, a lost fingertip or worse; is not worth it!
Fuse as required. If extension leads are to be used, carry out the same safety checks on them, and ensure that they are correctly rated to safely supply the current that is required for your machine.

FREEPHONE 0800 371822
DO NOT use this machine within the designated safety areas of flammable liquid stores or in areas where there may be volatile gases. There are very expensive, very specialised machines for working in these areas, THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM.
Check that cutters, drills, blades etc., are the correct type and size, are undamaged and are kept clean and sharp, this will maintain their operating performance and lessen the loading on the machine.
If possible always fit dust extraction to machines that are producing high rates of sawdust, shavings, chips etc.
Above all, OBSERVE…. make sure you know what is happening around you, and USE
YOUR COMMON SENSE.
REMEMBER, YOU ARE ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY
THIS MACHINE IS DESIGNED TO CUT TIMBER AND TIMBER DERIVATIVE PRODUCTS. DO NOT use for any other materials.
Specific Instructions/Precautions
for the Saw Table...
Make sure the saw blade is the correct type for the job in hand. DO NOT force the saw, if the saw begins to 'stall' you are 'forcing the cut' or over working the saw. Ensure that the saw blade is clean and sharp. Resin build up on the blades will increase the friction of the saw passing through the timber, and cause over heating of the blade, blunt teeth will work harder tearing the fibre of the timber as opposed to shearing it, also with subsequent overheating. Both faults unnecessarily load the machine beyond normal usage, and shorten its longevity.
DO NOT use blades that are deformed in any way. DO NOT remove the blade guard. The design of the riving knife on the machine will not
allow for slotting or 'blind' grooving, so there is no reason to remove the guard.
DO NOT remove the riving knife. DO NOT use any blades that cut a smaller kerf than the riving knife thickness.
Make sure the riving knife is correctly adjusted to the blade and is securely fastened. If the table insert becomes damaged or broken, and will not support the timber 'up close' to the blade, replace it.
DO NOT start the saw with the workpiece touching the blade. DO NOT commence sawing until the blade has run up to full speed.
After switching off, never try to slow the saw down more quickly by applying side pressure (with a piece of wood?) to the blade. Apply the old joiner's adage of never getting hands within one handbreadth of the blade. Leave the machine disconnected from the mains supply until you are about to commence work.

ALWAYS disconnect the machine if you are leaving it unattended. NEVER leave the vicinity of the machine unless the blade has come to a complete stop. DO NOT attempt to carry out any maintenance, corrective work, setting up etc., unless the
machine is disconnected from the mains supply. If any tools have been used during setting up procedures, make sure they are removed from the machine and stowed safely away. DO NOT attempt to carry out cross cutting operations 'freehand', always use the mitre fence for small stuff and the sliding carriage for larger work pieces. Unless you are an experienced machine operator, do not attempt to 'rip' freehand, always use the guiding facility of the rip fence. It is perfectly acceptable to support guide and feed the timber with your hands whilst ripping stuff of some length, however, as you approach the blade ensure that the push stick is to hand, and you use it. REMEMBER the emphasis of the 'push' should be between the blade and the fence and close to the fence. Use your free hand to support and guide the material on the offside of the saw blade and at least 100mm away from it. If the timber does not extend to at least 100mm to the offside of the saw blade, the material possibly? does not need guiding or supporting. CHECK (especially on site), that there are no foreign objects e.g. old nails, screws, small stones etc embedded in the material you are about to cut. If necessary take a wire brush to the timber before working. If you are being assisted whilst using the saw (by a 'take off' or 'support' number?), remember there is only one sawyer at a machine, and they stand in front of it. The assistant does not push, pull, guide etc., unless specifically asked or instructed to do so by the sawyer.

Adjusting the Riving Knife
Adjusting the Fence to the Blade
Raise the saw blade to its highest point and remove the saw blade guard. Remove the four hex screws and place carefully aside, remove the table insert. Using the spanner provided loosen the riving knife and adjust until the tip of the riving knife is 3mm away from the saw blade & re-tighten. (See fig 54).
NOTE: Check that the riving knife is parallel to the saw blade by placing the fence up against them. (See fig 55).
The fence assembly must be parallel to the saw blade for producing accurate cuts. Firstly loosen the fence clamp assembly knob (N), slide the fence until it reads “ZERO” on the table support arm scale (X). (See figs 56 & 57).
“Zero”
NOTE: Use the ‘T’ slot to the right side of the saw blade as a reference to check the fence is parallel. (See figs 58 & 59). Regularly check the fence is parallel to ensure a perfect cut.

Adjusting the Cutting Height
Adjust the blade height with the hand wheel (F), see fig 62, so that the blade teeth are protruding through the work piece.
Adjusting the pivot
Release the locking handle (A), the saw can be angled up to a maximum of 45˚ by turning the hand wheel (B). (See fig 63).
NOTE: If the blade is at maximum height, it will need to be lowered by 10mm when the pivot angle is 30˚ or more.

Operating Instructions...
NOTE: Before using your table saw, go round and make sure everything is
secure, fastened down, that all tool, are cleared away from the work area.
!
CHECK the blade for sharpness, missing teeth, resin buildup, etc., clean if
necessary. Check the blade is securely clamped in place. (i.e. not loose).
!
Give the machine a 'quick' burst check ( i.e. quick ON-OFF) to ensure everything is O.K. If everything is satisfactory, the table saw is ready for use.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD
CHILDREN BE ALLOWED IN WORK AREAS
!
WARNING!
!
KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT OUT OF THE REACH OF YOUNG CHILDREN
CONNECT THE SAW TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
!
CONNECT A DUST EXTRACTION VACUUM TO THE
DUST EXTRACTION OUTLET ON YOUR TABLE SAW
!
Feeding Work by Hand
Start up the saw, wait until it has reached full speed and slowly feed the timber through using both handles, (making sure to keep your hands well clear of the blade and using a push stick for small pieces), until the timber is behind the riving knife. Switch off the saw, wait until the blade has come to a complete stop and remove the timber. (See figs 64 & 65).

Raise the saw blade to its highest point, remove the saw blade guard, remove the four hex screws that secure the table insert, place carefully aside and remove the table insert. Using the spanner provided, put the spanner onto the flats on the nut. (See figs 67 & 68).
Note: Be careful not to disturb the shims beneath the table insert, as the shims are set so the table insert is level with the table surface.
Slacken off the saw bolt (remember right hand thread). Remove the saw nut, then remove the sawplate washer and the saw blade. (See figs 68 & 70). Now is a good time to give the interior of the machine, the dust extraction channels, etc. a thorough clean. Check the new blade for damage, missing teeth,sharpness etc. Fit the new blade, ensure that the teeth are pointing towards the front of the machine. Put the sawplate washer onto the shaft and twist on the saw bolt. Spin the bolt up finger tight and check the saw is correctly seated.

Tighten up the saw bolt, check the riving knife is aligned with the saw blade, and correctly positioned. Replace the table insert and secure with the 4 hex screws. Replace the saw blade guard. When everything is satisfactory, turn the saw blade once by hand to check it doesn't foul anywhere.
Reconnect the machine to the mains supply. Give the machine a 'quick' burst check ( i.e. quick ON-OFF) to ensure everything is O.K. If everything is satisfactory, continue to use the machine. Check the old blade for sharpness, missing teeth, resin build up, etc., clean if necessary and send for refurbishment/resharpening if required. If the blade is not to be re-sharpened, clean and pack away in its storage case.
Maintenance...
Sawplate washer
Remove the
saw blade
Keep the saw as clean and free from saw dust build up as is practical. Periodically, remove the saw gullet and vacuum out and clean out the saw box and the extraction housing. Remove any resin build up in the saw box, using a proprietary resin cleaner.
Clean the threaded drive shafts of the rise and fall and tilt mechanisms. At the same time check the belt drive, i.e. the belt is not 'glazing' with resin build up, likewise with the pulley wheels. Check the belt tension. If the belt is becoming slack, loosen the motor hold down bolts and drive the motor backward with its adjusting bolt.
Check the saw blade regularly for chipped, missing, damaged teeth etc. and remove any resin build up from the blade, riving knife etc.
If you have finished using the saw bench, clean above and below the work table and using a damp cloth wipe the saw bench over. If the saw bench is not going to be used for a period of time, smear a light coat of oil over the work table and place a dust sheet over the saw bench. (Order no: 600410).
