Positioning the table insert 5mm machine screw Workpiece Saw blade 5mm machine screw Workpiece Saw blade Table insert Table insert Workpiece Saw blade Table insert 5mm machine screw [Right angle cutting] Fig. 8-a [Left bevel angle cuff ng] Fig. 8-b [Right bevel angle cutting] Fig. 8-c Table inserts are installed on the turntable. When shipping the tool from the factory, the table inserts are so fixed that the saw blade does not contact them. The burr of the bottom surface of the workpiece is remarkably reduced, if the table insert is fixed so that the gap between the side surface of the table insert and the saw blade will be minimum. Before using the tool, eliminate this gap in accordance with the following procedure. (1) Right angle cutting Loosen the three 5 mm machine screws, then secure the left side table insert and temporarily tighten the 5 mm machine screws of both ends. Then fix a workpiece (about 7-7/8" (200 mm) wide) with the vise assembly and cut it off. After aligning the cutting surface with the edge of the table insert, securely tighten the 5 mm machine screws of both ends. Remove the workpiece and securely tighten the 5 mm center machine screw. Adjust the right hand table insert in the same way. (2) Left and right bevel angle cutting Adjust the table insert in the manner shown in Fig. 8-b and Fig. 8-c following the same procedure for right angle cutting. Q CAUTION: After adjusting the table insert for right angle cutting, the table insert will be cut to some extent if it is used for bevel angle cutting. When bevel cutting operation is required, adjust the table insert for bevel angle cutting. 2. Checking the saw blade lower limit position Check that the saw blade can be lowered 23/64" to 7/16" (9 mm to 11 mm) below the table insert as shown in Fig. 9-a. When you replace a saw blade with a new one, adjust the lower limit position so that the saw blade will not cut the turntable or complete cutting cannot be done. To adjust the lower limit position of the saw blade, follow the procedure (1) indicated below. (Fig. 9-b) Furthermore, when changing the position of a 8 mm depth adjustment bolt that serves as a lower limit position stopper of the saw blade. 17

Table
inserts
are
installed
on
the
turntable.
When
shipping
the
tool
from
the
factory,
the
table
inserts
are
so
fixed
that
the
saw
blade
does
not
contact
them.
The
burr
of
the
bottom
surface
of
the
workpiece
is
remarkably
reduced,
if
the
table
insert
is
fixed
so
that
the
gap
between
the
side
surface
of
the
table
insert
and
the
saw
blade
will
be
minimum.
Before
using
the
tool,
eliminate
this
gap
in
accordance
with
the
following
procedure.
(1)
Right
angle
cutting
Loosen
the
three
5
mm
machine
screws,
then
secure
the
left
side
table
insert
and
temporarily
tighten
the
5
mm
machine
screws
of
both
ends.
Then
fix
a
workpiece
(about
7-7/8"
(200
mm)
wide)
with
the
vise
assembly
and
cut
it
off.
After
aligning
the
cutting
surface
with
the
edge
of
the
table
insert,
securely
tighten
the
5
mm
machine
screws
of
both
ends.
Remove
the
workpiece
and
securely
tighten
the
5
mm
center
machine
screw.
Adjust
the
right
hand
table
insert
in
the
same
way.
(2)
Left
and
right
bevel
angle
cutting
Adjust
the
table
insert
in
the
manner
shown
in
Fig.
8-b
and
Fig.
8-c
following
the
same
procedure
for
right
angle
cutting.
Q
CAUTION:
After
adjusting
the
table
insert
for
right
angle
cutting,
the
table
insert
will
be
cut
to
some
extent
if
it
is
used
for
bevel
angle
cutting.
When
bevel
cutting
operation
is
required,
adjust
the
table
insert
for
bevel
angle
cutting.
2.
Checking
the
saw
blade
lower
limit
position
Check
that
the
saw
blade
can
be
lowered
23/64"
to
7/16"
(9
mm
to
11
mm)
below
the
table
insert
as
shown
in
Fig.
9-a.
When
you
replace
a
saw
blade
with
a
new
one,
adjust
the
lower
limit
position
so
that
the
saw
blade
will
not
cut
the
turntable
or
complete
cutting
cannot
be
done.
To
adjust
the
lower
limit
position
of
the
saw
blade,
follow
the
procedure
(1)
indicated
below.
(Fig.
9-b)
Furthermore,
when
changing
the
position
of
a
8
mm
depth
adjustment
bolt
that
serves
as
a
lower
limit
position
stopper
of
the
saw
blade.
