ADJUSTMENT OF UPPER BLADE GUIDE'S HEIGHT (Fig.11):

Upper blade guide's (11) Fig.1 height must be adjusted:
- after any cutting operation, in order that it is suitable for workpiece height (during cutting, upper blade
guide position must be about 3 mm over the workpiece);
- after saw blade or workbench adjustment (for example after saw blade replacing or tension operation, or
after workbench adjustment).
Loosen saw blade guide locking knob (20) Fig.2.
a.
Turn saw blade guide adjustment knob (19) Fig.2 and lower saw blade guide (11) Fig.1 the nearest to the
b.
workpiece, in order that there is a gap of about 2-3 mm between it and the workpiece.
Tighten saw blade guide locking knob (20) Fig.2.
c.
WARNING:
BEFORE ADJUSTING UPPER BLADE GUIDE, DISCONNECT THE MACHINE AND WAIT
FOR THE SAW BLADE TO STOP COMPLETELY.
RIGHT-ANGLE WORKBENCH ADJUSTMENT (Fig.12 and 13) :
Cut is perfectly perpendicular if workbench surface is perpendicular to the saw blade. To obtain this adjustment,
proceed as follows:
Raise upper blade guide (11) Fig.12.
a.
Loosen workbench angle locking lever (18) Fig.2.
b.
Place a square (not provided) between the saw blade (26) Fig.2 and the workbench (15) Fig.1.
c.
Angle the workbench (15) Fig.1 by turning the adjustment wheel (19) Fig.2 until it is placed at 90° with the
d.
saw blade.
Tighten workbench angle locking lever (18) Fig.2.
e.
After placing the workbench at right angle with the saw blade, loosen the nut (42) Fig.13, then adjust the
f.
hex head screw (41) Fig.13 until the head of the screw touches machine's support.
Tighten the nut (42) Fig.13 to fix the hex head screw (41) Fig.13.
