Only use the flanges and washers that are supplied with the tool,
•
and replace them if they become damaged or scored.
Do not operate the tool under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
•
medication. Keep loose items of clothing away from moving parts of
the saw. Keep hands away from blade whilst in motion.
After installing a new blade, always run the machine for approximately
•
one minute before cutting.
Ensure that you use all necessary personal safety protection
•
equipment and follow all safety guidelines at all times.
Machine Set Up
Power Supply
It is recommended that the Rage 4 ADVAN-SAW should be used on a
separate power supply, and be protected by a Residual Current Device.
Any extension cable should be no longer than 15 Metres and should be
1.5mm
for 240v and 2.5mm

Changing Blades: Ensure the machine is unplugged. Remove the 4
guard screws (fig. 1.) and rotate the blade cover. Press in the spindle
lock (fig. 2.) and check that it is fully engaged by manually rotating the
blade. Using the supplied 8mm Hex wrench, undo the hex bolt that
secures the blade by turning it counter clockwise, and remove the bolt,
washer, outside blade flange and blade. Note: Do not remove inside
blade flange. Press in the spindle lock. Replace blade, making sure that
the printed side of the blade is facing you then refit the outside blade
flange, washer, and hex bolt. Turn the hex bolt clockwise to tighten. Note:
Check that the spindle lock is fully released by manually rotating the
blade before use. Rotate the blade cover back into position and tighten
the 4 guard screws.
Dust Exhaust Port
If the saw is to be used on material which will create dust an exhaust
tube is supplied which will allow the connection of a vacuum extraction
system. To fit the exhaust tube remove the 4 screws from the blanking
plate at the rear of the machine (fig. 3) and using the same screws attach
the exhaust tube.
Adjustment Of The Cutting Angle
The vice can be adjusted from 0 to 45 degrees. Loosen the orange lever
on the vice and adjust to the required cutting angle. Tighten lever to lock
in position.
Adjustment Of The Stationary Vice
To achieve maximum cutting capacity, at 90 degrees, the stationary vice
must be repositioned further back in the machine. Slacken the vice lever,
remove the Philips screw and lift off the handle, the bolt can then be
unscrewed, next remove the Allen screw and reposition the vice to the
back two holes, replace the bolt, lever and Allen screw, set angle to 0
degree and tighten lever to lock in position.
Metal Cutting Saw Safety
Operating Advice
Always securely clamp the material to be cut in the vice. To start the tool,
you must depress the main trigger switch to power the motor. With the
motor head in the raised position, switch on the motor and allow to come
up to full speed. Lower the motor head to begin cutting. When starting
a cut take care to introduce the blade to the material slowly, using light
pressure at first to keep blade from grabbing, and then continue with
normal pressure. Do not force the tool – let the speed of the saw blade
do the work. Cutting performance will not improve by applying more
pressure on the tool, and blade and motor life will be reduced. Use less
pressure as the blade exits through the material. On completion of the
cut, return the motor head to its upright position and switch off the power.
Keep the tool clean of metal chips and other dirt and debris.
Work piece Clamping
Position the work piece in the vice so that if a jam occurs, the blade will
for 110v machines.
