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.

 

Rotating lower

 

 

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).
