ADJUSTING THE RIVING KNIFE
Check the thickness and the measures of
the riving knife. The riving knife has to be
thicker than the blade body but thinner than
the tooth thickness.
1 Disconnect the mains supply at the main
switch and secure it against switching on.
2 Remove the table insert.
3 Put the saw-blade in its highest position.
4 Loosen the bolt of the riving knife
fastening.
5 Adjust the riving knife in such a way that
the distance between the knife and the
teeth sticking out above the tabletop is
maximum 3 mm. The highest point of the
riving knife has to be 3-5 mm under the
highest point of the teeth (fig. 5).
6 Fasten the bolt of the riving knife
fastening tightly.
7 Put the table insert back.
8 Connect the mains supply.
