PARALLEL GUIDE FENCE (Fig. 1)
Attach the two face plates (a) to the parallel guide fence (B)
with the four machine screws (C) supplied. Insert screw
(D) through spring washer (E) and flat washer (F). Secure the
rods onto the guide fence (B) with the screw assembly.
DUST EXTRACTION PORT (Fig. 2)
The majority of operations will require the dust extraction to
be fitted, however some operations will be impossible with
the port fitted. These require appropriate safety equipment
to be worn. Fit the dust extraction port (G) into the recess.
Pass the two machine screws (H) up through the base and
into the nuts in the port. Secure the port without damaging
the plastic parts by over tightening the machine screws.
NOTE:
With the dust extraction port fitted, the plunger
stroke is reduced to 38mm.
DUST EXTRACTION:
Inhalation of dust particles can be detrimental to health.
The dust outlet must be connected with a dust extraction
machine.
NOTE:
Due to the outlet diameter, a size adaptation may be necessary. All wood dust (including
dust form composites like chipboards and fibre boards etc.) is hazardous to health; it can affect the
nose, the respiratory system and the skin. For example MDF (medium density fiberboard) which
contains formaldehyde is a known carcinogen. In addition to the above measures a correctly fitted
dust mask, suitable for the activity and in accordance to the relevant standard, must be worn.
For work activities involving exposure to fine wood dust a mask should be used.
