Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results. 1. SAFETY ACCESSORIES. Always use the blade guard and riving knife on all ''through-sawing'' operations.
SITE CONSIDERATIONS General Condition: 1.Electrical connection: Steady state voltage: 0.9-1.1 of nominal voltage. Frequency: 0.99-1.01 of nominal frequency continuously; 0.98-1.02 short time The mains connection must have maximum16A fuse. Electrical supply which has protection devices of under-voltage, over-voltage, over-current as well as a residual current device (RCD) which maximum residual current rated at 0.03A. 2.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SLIDING PANEL SAW 5
A. Crosscut Table–Provides a wide, stable platform for supporting full-size panels during crosscutting operations. K. Blade Angle Hand-wheel–Adjust the angle of the saw blades. L. Mitre Gauge–This gauge aligns the wood for a cross-cut. B. Flip Stops–Used for quick measurements for crosscutting. M. Rip Fence–Fully adjustable with fine adjustments. Fence face can be positioned for standard cutting operations, or in the lower position for blade guard clearance during narrow ripping operations. C.
UNPACKING The Sliding Panel Saw is shipped from the manufacturer in a carefully packed crate. If you discover the machine is damaged after you have signed for delivery, please call Customer Service immediately for advice. When you are completely satisfied with the condition of your shipment, you should inventory its parts. The Sliding Panel Saw is a heavy machine. DO NOT over-exert yourself while unpacking or moving your machine you will need assistance and power equipment.
ASSEMBLY 1 . Attach the Cast iron extension table to major table with 4-M8x20 hex head screws / washers . Moving & Placing Saw Base Unit The Sliding Panel Saw is a heavy machine. Serious personal injury may occur if safe moving methods are not followed. To be safe, you will need assistance and power equipment when moving the shipping crate and removing the machine from the crate. Use lifting straps with a minimum of 500 kgs lifting capacity.
Install the support leg Fig 7 1. Attach the support leg to steel plate extension table with 2-M8x20 Hex head screws, washers and nuts. And tighten them. 2 . Adjust the support leg ensure the steel plate extension table at the same lever with the cast iron extension table. Install the rip fence rail 1. Place 5-M8x25 square head screws, washers and hex nuts onto major table and extension tables (washers and nuts inside table).
Fitting the rip fence and align the rail 1.Move the blade tilt to 0˚ (blade 90˚ to table), and raise the main blade as the way up. 2 . Place the cross-cut table support (A) onto the swing arm assembly, and hand tighten the lock nuts. The support needs further adjustment. 2.Fit the profile of the rip fence carrier into the opposite profile on the rip fence rail. Install the Sliding panel assembly 3.Slide the rip fence touch the main blade. 1 .
Adjust the sliding panel level: Install the cross cut fence 1 . Place a level rule (cross cut fence) on to major table and sliding panel . 1. Drop the cross cut fence into the forward or rear guide pin hole. 2. Loosen 4-M8x25 hex screws(A) , adjust the M8x40 hex screw(B) to adjust the sliding panel level(fig 13). 2. Tighten the knurled nut. 3. Then re-tighten 4-M8x25 hex screws (A). 3. Turn the “Z” lock plate to quick aligning the fence to table. 4.
Install the dust port Install dust hoses Place the dust port onto the bottom of rear panel, tighten it with 4 M6x12 pan head screws washers and nuts (nuts inside stand). Fig 19 1. Install the 2” dust hose onto the blade guard with 2” hose clamp. 2. Put the 2” dust hose onto dust hose support, keep free with the working table. 3. Another end of 2” dust hose clamps to the main dust port on the bottom of rear panel. 4.
REPLACEMENT & ADJUSTMENT Fig 25 Replace the main blade Disconnect the saw from the power source! The main blade dimension suitable for MJ12 machine is 254x30x3( outer diameter, core diameter, thickness), 305x30x3, 315x30x3mm. Replace and adjusting the scoring blade But any time you change blade thickness, the appropriate sized riving knife and scoring blade must also be changed to match the size of main blade you install. To change main blade: 1.

2. Raise the main blade up as far as it will go. Fig 30 3. Mark the center of the blade with a felt tip pen. This will allow you to take your measurements from the exact same place on the blade. 4. Move the sliding panel all the way to one end, and using a precision ruler, measure the gap between the edge of the panel and your mark on the blade as shown in Fig 32.

3. Install the crosscut fence in the guide pin holes and lock it in place with the knurled nut. OPERATIONS Note First, drop the crosscut fence into the forward guide pin hole, turn the "Z"lock plate to align the fence, then tighten the knurled nut. Fig 34 Your safety is important. To preventing work-piece kickback, slide the edge shoe into sliding panel when needed. The edge shoe can slide into the front or rear portion of sliding panel.
Miter Cutting Note If the workpiece extends to the left of the saw blade more than 1200mm, then the crosscut fence slide needs to be extended. The cross cut table built two scales for forward and rear mount fence to perform mitre cut. 4. Load the workpiece onto the table saw. 5. Mount the hold down arm onto the stud and lock the work-piece in place. 6. Once all the necessary safety precautions have been taken, perform the cutting operation.
MAINTENANCE ELECTRICAL Main switch Always disconnect power to the machine before performing maintenance. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury. This machine is equipped with a knee touch no-volt release main switch and a limit switch. Cleaning The main switch is equipped a large size touch panel, during performance cutting work, any part of man body touched the switch panel, it can bring the saw stop. Cleaning the sliding panel saw is relatively easy.
