REMOVAL / INSTALLATION

ALWAYS TURN OFF AND UNPLUG THE SAW BEFORE REMOVING / INSTALLING A RIVING KNIFE.

ELECT A RIVING KNIFE

Two riving knives are provided:

- A combination riving style splitter and blade guard with

nti-kickback pawls A;

- A European style riving knife without blade guard B.

The riving knife must always be used with a blade guard.

f you already own an independently attached blade-

guard such as our Excalibur 50-EXBC10, use the riving knife

B. If you do not already own a blade guard, use the

splitter/blade guard assembly A.

HE BLADE MUST NEVER REMAIN EXPOSED WHEN USING THE SAW. TO PREVENT THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURIES,

ALWAYS COVER THE BLADE WITH A BLADE GUARD.

INSTALL AND ADJUST RIVING KNIFE

1. Set the blade to 90º and raise it to its highest position.

(Refer to “Blade height and tilt adjustment” instructions

on page 17 if needed).

2. Remove the table insert.

3. If already installed, remove the splitter or riving knife

by loosening the locking lever A and pulling the split-

ter or riving knife up out of its mounting bracket.

4. To install

: Fit the bottom end of the splitter or riving

knife into the slot in the mounting bracket and push

downward until it bottoms out, then tighten the locking

lever A to lock it in place.

5. Re-install the table insert.

LEVEL THE TABLE INSERT

Place the insert into the table and use a straightedge to

determine whether the insert is level with the table top A.

Turn each of the 6 adjusting screws A with the supplied

Allen key until done.

Suggestion: Start by adjusting one rear screw and its

diagonal opposite in front, then tweak the remaining

screws.

Note: If the sawblade has already been installed, use the rais-

ing handwheel to lower the blade below the table surface

before leveling the insert.
