OPERATION
3. The Rip Fence
An adjustable Rip Fence is positioned to the RH side of the
blade. The Rip Fence can be locked into the desired position by
tightening a wing nut found underneath the Rip Fence Carrier.
(Fig. 20)
The Rip Fence rail is an integral part of the machine table and
contains a measurement scale to aid setting.
Do not position the Rip Fence to the LH side of the blade.
Forwards and backwards adjustment of the rip fence is possible.
Loosen the two socket headed screws with a suitable Allen
key and slide the aluminium extrusion to the desired position.
Tighten the socket screws firmly. (Fig. 21)
Note: We recommend that normally the rip fence be adjusted
so that the rear of the guide is level with the rear of the blade
where it emerges from the table.
The aluminium fence guide can be attached to the fence carrier
in a 'Hi' and a 'Lo' position. The 'normal' and factory supplied
position is with the fence set to the 'Hi' setting.
The 'Lo' setting can be useful when cutting very thin sheet
material.
To re-position the Rip Fence to the 'Lo' setting:
•
Loosen the two socket headed screws.
•
Slide the aluminium extrusion from the carrier.
•
Re-attach the aluminium extrusion to the carrier in the 'Lo'
position.
•
Tighten the two socket headed screws with the fence in the
required position. (Fig. 22)
BASIC TABLE SAW OPERATIONS
WARNING:
Never attempt freehand cuts on this machine.
Always use the Rip Fence Guide to minimise the possibility
of the blade binding and kickback. We recommend that
the saw blade protrudes through the material to be cut by
approximately 3mm.
Adjust the cutting height of the blade by adjusting the height
of the machine table as previously described. This machine is
not suitable for cutting rebates or stopped grooves.
A workshop dust extraction device can be connected to the
extraction port found at the rear of the machine if required.
