Setting the Riving Knive Gap
1. Raise the saw blade up to it maximum height and
remove the crown guard assembly.
2. Check the clearance between the riving knife and
the saw blade, it should have a gap of (MIN 3mm - MAX
8mm), see fig 111.

guard assembly and place safely aside, see fig 112.

4. Loosen the nut holding the riving knive, see fig 113
and adjust the knife until the required distance is
correct. Make sure the graduation line for the size of

retighten the nut and replace the inner guard.

Rip Fence
1. Lift up the clamping handle and slide the rip fence
up against the blade, push down the handle to lock the
fence assembly, check the fence lines up with the ‘0’ on
the scale, see fig 115.
2. If adjustment is required slacken the nuts holding
the rip fence scale (24), see fig 116 and adjust until
the ‘0’ on the scale lines up with the fence.
NOTE: Nip up the nuts evenly to prevent the rip
fence scale becoming misaligned.
