7.8 Crosscut fence setup
Crosscut fence setup shall never be
performed when the machine is
running.
The cross-cut table has 2 precision
holes, allowing the crosscut fence to
be put in 2 positions:
At the back and front of the cross-cut
table.
Simply put the fence onto the cross-
cut table and lock it in position using
the two knobs.
Fig 21
The 90° adjustable stops are factory
set.
Calibration of the scale on the cross-
cut fence:
The scale on the fence is factory set
and needs no further adjustments.
To check the settings, put the stop at
a certain measure and cut off a
sample.
Measure the exact length of the
sample, unlock the screw which holds
the fence pivoting T-nut and move the
fence until the measurement
corresponds to the length of the
previously cut length.
When using the telescopic extension,
the second material stop has to be set
to the very end to make the different
scales correspond with one another.
The best way to check if all scales
correspond is to make several test
cuts on the different scales.
When, after some time, the protection
cap at the front on the cross-cut fence
is cut away, a new one has to be
installed (part no.: JTSS1500-542).
7.9 Mitre fence setup (JTSS-1700)
Mitre fence setup shall never be
performed when the machine is
running.
To set the required angle: unlock the
rod (E) of the wood clamp and the
indexable handle (F).
The 45° and 90° positive stops (G) are
factory set.
Fig 22
When, after some time, the protection
cap at the front on the cross-cut fence
(H) is cut away, a new one has to be
installed (part no.: JTSS1500-542).
7.10 Rip fence setup
Rip fence setup shall never be
performed when the machine is
running.
To move the fence, lift the handle (1).
To lock the fence in position push the
handle (Z) down.
Fig 23
When cutting small workpieces with
the sawunit inclined at 45°, the fence
must be used in the low position.
Simply unlock the clamping handle
(Z), slide off the fence and slide it
back on in the low position and lock.
The rip fence has a micro adjust
feature. Push down the knob (Y) to
engage rack and pinion.
9
When cross cutting using the parallel
fence, to avoid the wood getting stuck
between the fence and the riving knife
(resulting in a highly dangerous
kickback) it is necessary to position
the fence so that its end corresponds
with the front of the sawblade.
Start the machine with precaution.
The rip fence must be parallel to the
sawblade and is adjusted at the
factory.
8. Maintenance and inspection
General notes:
Maintenance, cleaning and repair
work may only be carried out after
the machine is protected against
accidental starting by pulling the
mains plug.
Repair and maintenance work on the
electrical system may only be carried
out by a qualified electrician.
Clean the machine regularly.
Inspect the proper function of the dust
extraction daily.
Keep the inside of the cabinet clear of
sawdust and wood chips. Make sure
the motor fan and fan cover are also
kept clear of sawdust.
After a days use push the sliding table
all of the way forward and backward.
Remove rust from the table e.g. with
WD-40® and a Scotch-Brite™ Hand
Pad.
Never smoke while cleaning the
machine, and especially when using
petrol, kerosene or other inflammable
products.
This could lead to an explosion and
serious burns for the operator.
All protective and safety devices must
be re-attached immediately after
completed cleaning, repair and
maintenance work.
Defective safety devices must be
replaced immediately.
Check saw blades regularly for faults.
Replace a defective sawblades
immediately.
A worn table insert must be replaced.
Main drive belt tensioning:
Check regularly the condition of the
belts and, if necessary, tighten or
replace.
