DUST EXTRACTION PORT
WARNING: Dust can potentially be a danger to the machine’s
operator and to anyone nearby. We recommend that if you
intend to use this machine to cut material(s) that create dust
(timber, plywood, certain plastics, etc.) that the dust extraction
port is tted to the machine. This will then allow a workshop
dust extraction system to be connected
to the machine.
The operator should also wear a suitable dust mask, and any
other relevant PPE (Personal Protective Equipment).
TO FIT THE DUST EXTRACTION PORT:
• Remove the four cross-headed screws and their associated washers
from the blanking plate at the rear of the machine. (Fig. 9)
• Remove the blanking plate.
• Using the four removed screws fit the Dust Extraction Port in place
of the blanking plate.
Note: When using a dust extraction system with this machine
follow the instructions supplied with the dust extraction
system regarding safe operating procedures.
SPEED HANDLE
Note: A drilled and threaded hole is located on the handwheel
rim adjacent to one of the handwheel arms.
Fit the Speed Handle, if desired, to the vise hand-wheel. The
handle simply screws into the threaded hole. (Fig. 10)
Use a cross-headed screwdriver (not supplied) to tighten the
handle into its service position.

• The machine’s base should be clean and free from any ‘swarf’
or sawdust, etc. before the workpiece is clamped into position.
