Spindle lock button |
| |
K | ||
The spindle lock button (26) | ||
| ||
prevents the blade in the |
| |
saw from rotating (fig. K). |
| |
Depress and hold the spindle |
| |
lock button while installing, |
| |
changing, or removing the |
| |
blade. |

L | ||
blade guard | ||
| ||
The rotating lower blade |
| |
guard (12) provides |
| |
protection from both sides of |
| |
the blade (fig. L). It retracts |
| |
over the upper blade guard |
| |
(9) as the saw is lowered |
| |
into the workpiece. |

Dust bag |
| |
M | ||
The dust bag (15) fits over | ||
| ||
the dust extraction port (27). |
| |
For more efficient operation, |
| |
empty the dust bag when |
| |
it is no more than half full. |
| |
This allows better air flow |
| |
through the bag (fig. M). |
| |
Attaching the side bars |
| |
| ||
N | ||
The side support bars (37) | ||
| ||
help to support the material |
| |
when working with long |
| |
workpieces. There are two |
| |
location holes (38) for a |
| |
support bar on either side of |
| |
the table. Loosen the lock |
| |
screws (39) with the 6mm |
|
hex key. Ensure the side bars are fully inserted before using them to support the workpiece (fig. N).
The side support bar locking screws (39) must be tightened to secure the support bars in position (fig. O).
Trench depth adjustment
In its normal position, the trenching stop (31) permits the saw blade to cut right through a workpiece. When the saw arm is lifted, the trenching stop can be moved to the left so that the trenching depth adjustment screw (30) contacts the stop as the saw arm is lowered. (fig. P). This restricts the cut to a “trench” in the workpiece. The depth of the trench can be adjusted with the trenching depth adjustment screw (30)
(fig. Q) and locked in position with the trenching depth lock nut (32) (fig. R).
