1. Thread the T-square into the lower clamp channel (on the underside
of the track) so that the flat side of the T-square is facing the length
of the track
2. Tighten the hex screw to secure the T-Square in position
3. Now, when you offer up the track to the workpiece, the T-Square lies
flat against the edge of the workpiece, ensuring the track is set at 90°
to the workpiece
Note: the T-Square takes up 140mm / 5-½" of track length.
Angle Guide (TTSAG)
• Provides a range of set angles +/- 55° for guaranteed precision cutting
• Unique double scale feature enables a full range of angles to either
side of 90°
1. Thread the angle guide into the lower clamp channel (on the underside
of the track) and loosely secure with the hex screw supplied.
2. With the straight edge of the angle guide against the edge of the
workpiece, rotate the track until the edge of the track is aligned with
the angle (marked on the angle guide) that you require
3. Tighten the hex screw to secure the angle guide in position at the angle
required
Note: The angle guide takes up 140–220mm (5-½" – 8-
2
⁄3") of track
length.
Parallel Guide (TTSPG)
• In certain circumstances, it may not be possible to use the track. In
such cases the saw can be used with the Parallel Guide. This enables
accurate cuts parallel to the edge of the workpiece without use of
the track
• The parallel guide can be used on the left or the right of the blade
1. Loosen the Front and Rear Parallel Guide Clamps (8 and 16) on the saw
2. Slide the parallel guide into the mounting slots in the saw baseplate
3. Use the scale on the guide to set the distance from the blade to achieve
the required width of cut
4. Retighten both the parallel guide clamps to secure the parallel guide
in position
Triton Dust Extraction System (TTSDES)
• For a cleaner, safer working environment, the Triton Dust Extraction
System is designed for use with the Triton Plunge Saw
• This semi-rigid bag has a 1000ml capacity and will collect over 90% of
the dust from the cut
• The non-woven material ensures a high filtering capacity and a vision
panel makes it is easy to see when the bag needs emptying
• For optimum efficiency, do not allow the bag to become more than ¾
full before emptying
• The Dust Extraction System simply push-fits onto the Dust Extraction
Port (3)
Maintenance
Ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is removed from
the power point before making any adjustments or carrying out
maintenance procedures.
Blade maintenance
• Regularly check that the blade is free from a build-up of gum resins or
sawdust. If necessary, clean with a solvent-based maintenance spray
or mineral turpentine
• Regularly check the saw blade for flatness. Use of the saw with
a buckled blade places excessive load on the motor and gearbox
assembly, and may affect your warranty rights
• Check the tungsten carbide teeth regularly for sharpness and
breakages; resharpen or replace the blade as required
Note: When resharpening, the bevel angles on the front of the teeth
should be retained.
Replacing the saw blade
• Only use 165mm (
6-1
⁄2") blades, with a kerf between 2.2 & 3.5mm (
3
⁄32"
&
9
⁄64"), designed for circular saws with a no-load speed rating of at
least 5000min
-1
• Never fit high speed steel blades or abrasive discs. Fitting of other
purpose or different-sized blades will void the warranty
• Do not fit inferior blades. Regularly check the blade is flat, sharp and
free of cracks or defects
See image E
1. Rotate the Mode Selection Lever (20) to Blade Change position
2. Press the Plunge Lock Button (2) and plunge the saw. The saw will lock
at the depth that allows access to the blade retaining bolt through the
panel in the Blade Housing (22)
3. Fit the Hex Key (21) to the bolt and depress the Spindle Lock (19)
4. Turn the Hex Key in the direction of blade rotation (anti-clockwise) to
undo the bolt and remove the bolt and outer flange
5. Carefully lift the worn blade off the inner washer on the shaft and slide
the blade out through the aperture at the bottom of the Blade Housing
and set aside
6. Carefully slide the new blade in through the bottom of the Blade
Housing and position it onto the inner washer on the shaft. The graphics
should face out and the arrow on the blade should point in the same
direction as the arrow on the housing
7. Refit the outer blade flange then lightly screw the blade retaining bolt
through the outer blade flange
8. Check that the blade is seated properly, depress the Spindle Lock and
tighten the bolt firmly with the Hex Key
9. Depress the Plunge Lock Button to release the plunge lock and allow
the blade to retract fully into the housing
Cleaning
• Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all times
• Remove dust and dirt regularly with a cloth or soft brush
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. A damp cloth is
recommended. Water must never come into contact with the saw
• Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals
Brush replacement
See image F and G
• The carbon brushes are a consumable item which should be inspected
periodically and replaced when worn
1. With the saw disconnected from power, unscrew the Brush Access
Caps (11). Remove the brushes by pulling carefully on the
protruding springs
2. If either brush is worn to less than 6mm (15/64") long, both brushes
must be replaced using genuine Triton replacement brushes, available
from authorised Triton saw repair centres
3. Replace/refit the brushes, refit the Brush Access Caps and tighten
firmly in place
Note: Triton Precision Power Tools will not be responsible for any
damage or injury caused by mishandling or unauthorised repair of this
tool.
