CONNECTING YOUR MACHINE TO THE POWER SUPPLY: (240V)
To eliminate the possibility of an electric shock your machine has been fitted with a BS
approved, non rewireable moulded plug and cable which incorporates a fuse, the value
of which is indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced an
approved BS1362 fuse must be used of the same rating, marked thus .
The fuse cover is detachable, never use the plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement
fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the
plug (i.e. red). Fuse covers are available from your Draper Tools stockist.
If the fitted plug is not suitable, it should be cut off and destroyed. *The end of the cable
should now be suitably prepared and the correct type of plug fitted. See below.
*WARNING:
A plug with bare flexible wires exposed is hazardous if engaged in a live power socket
outlet.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE IS DOUBLE INSULATED.
Blue – Neutral, Brown – Live.
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter ‘N’ or coloured black or blue.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter ‘L’ or coloured red or brown.
CONNECTING YOUR MACHINE TO THE POWER SUPPLY (110V)
To eliminate the possibility of an electric shock your machine has been fitted with a
BS approved, rewireable plug and cable. If the fitted plug is not suitable, it should be
removed, the end of the cable should be suitably prepared and the correct type of plug
fitted. See below.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE IS DOUBLE INSULATED.
Single phase 110 volt machines must be connected using the relevant coding and
matching the colour of the flexible cable to that of the plug. The procedure is as follows:
1. Connect brown coloured core to plug terminal marked letter ‘L’ (live).
2. Connect blue colour core to plug terminal marked letter ‘N’ (neutral).

OPERATION & USE
Make sure that the mains voltage matches the
voltage stated on the machine’s rating plate.
FITTING THE SAW BLADE (Fig.2)
Switch the machine off and disconnect it from the
power supply.
Set the base plate to the highest position (maximum
depth of cut).
Open the mobile lower blade guard (A).
Rotate the blade until the hole can be seen below the
base plate. Insert a suitable pin through the hole and
using the hex key supplied (D), undo and remove
flange screw (C) and blade flange (B).
Change the blade ensuring that the arrow on the
blade points in the same rotation as the arrow on the
upper blade guard.
Refit the blade flange (B) and flange screw (C) and
tighten.
Before replacing the new saw blade, make sure that
the contact surfaces of the setting discs are clean.
Saw teeth must be wider than the riving knife (F).
(The arrow printed on the fixed guard of the machine
indicates the cutting direction of the teeth).
IMPORTANT:

SWITCH
The on/off switch (G) is fitted with a safety button (H)
so that it is not possible to start the saw by accident.
To start the saw press the safety button (H) then
depress switch (G) and hold. The saw will stop when
switch (G) is released (Fig.3).
SETTING CUTTING DEPTH
For a clean perfect cut, it is recommended to adjust
the cutting depth according to the wood thickness by
having the saw blade protrude through the material.
In order to adjust the cutting depth, loosen the wing
nut (J) and move the machine upwards or downwards
(Fig.4), to the desired position and tighten the wing
nut (J).
SETTING CUTTING ANGLE
It is possible to cut vertically and with an inclination
of up to 45º. Angle is set by loosening wing nut (K),
tilt the base using the scale as a guide and retighten
wing nut (K) (Fig.5).
RIVING KNIFE
The riving knife (L) avoids the saw blade from
binding/seizing during cutting operations and it must
always be used for safety purposes. The machine is
supplied with the riving knife adjusted.
When mounting a new saw blade, the riving knife
must be adjusted:
Raise the mobile guard (A) and loosen screw (M).
Move the riving knife so the arc of the knife is 2-3mm
(5mm max.) from the saw blade tips (Q) and is 2-3mm
(5mm max.) higher than the base of the blade (R).
Tighten screw (M) (Fig.6).
PARALLEL CUTTING GUIDE
For parallel cuts, use cutting guide (N). Cutting width
is adjusted by loosening knob (P) sliding guide to
required position indicated by the scale on the guide.
Tighten wing nut (P) (Fig.7).
CUTTING INDICATOR
Item 13 (Fig.1) is used as a cutting indicator with the
blade in horizontal position.
NOTE:
It is advisable to perform test cuts after
any adjustment.

MAINTENANCE &
PART REPLACEMENT
Regular inspection and cleaning reduces the
necessity for maintenance operations and will
keep your tool in good working condition.
The tool bearings and gears are life-long
lubricated, however it is advised to check the
condition of the grease in the gearbox every
100 hours, if necessary replace the grease. The
motor must be correctly ventilated during tool
operation. For this reason avoid blocking the
air inlets with hands. After use disconnect the
tool from the power supply and clean carefully,
use compressed air through ventilation slots.
DISPOSAL
At the end of the machine’s working life, or
when it can no longer be repaired, ensure that
it is disposed of according to the standard
regulations of the country in which it is being
used, and that the disposal operation is
carried out by specialized personnel following
authorized guidelines.
In all circumstances:
– Do not abandon in the environment;
– Do not dispose of together with solid urban
waste products;
– Contact the special recycling centres.
WARNING
Disconnect the plug from the power supply
socket before replacing any parts.
BRUSHES
The brushes must be replaced after approx.
150-200 working hours, or if they are less than
5-6mm in length.
WARNING
For correct tool operation always change the
brushes in pairs, not separately. The use of
original Draper spare parts is recommended.
After having fitted new brushes allow the
motor to run for at least five minutes without
load for the brushes to bed in.
IMPORTANT:
This operation should only be performed by
an authorized person.
REPLACING THE POWER SUPPLY CABLE
Check that the power supply cable is in
good condition, if not have it replaced by an
authorized person.
