The Axminster Trade MJ12-1600 MKII Panel Saw has been designed for the
trade workshop or keen home furniture maker. Upgraded over the previous
model with a high torque 2.2kW output mtor, a deeper section cast iron table,
all welded chassis and a cast iron rip fence holder. Constructed in cast iron with
welded heavy gauge steel and fitted with a 1,600mm alloy extrusion sliding
table, it is robust and stable for everyday use.The good sized, deep section cast
iron main table is fitted with a cast iron extension table giving a combined
surface of 825 x 800mm, plus a further steel plate extension giving a total
working surface of 1,265 x 800mm. A heavy gauge cast iron rip fence holder
and deep section alloy fence rail is included.The sliding table is smooth
running,fully adjustable and gives a travel of 1,300mm through the blade.
A cross-cut support table, with a telescopic support arm, can be positioned
anywhere on the sliding table and has a telescopic fence 1,200-2,200mm long,
enough for full size boards.This can easliy be removed without tools for stor-
age if required. A powerful 2.2kW output 1ph high torque motor drives both
the main blade and a scoring blade.The size of the main blade can be a choice
of 254, 305 or 315mm, without removing the scoring blade.The scoring blade
is easy to adjust through the table top and can be retracted below the surface
when not required. Smooth acting blade controls, efficient dust extraction and
a micro adjustable rip fence contribute to easy use. Included as standard are a
315mm Axcaliber main blade, scoring blade, a rear feed-off table,small mitre
fence (of a clever design for use on the sliding table with a work clamp), an
edge shoe and table support legs. N.B. 16A supply required.

General Instructions for 230V Machines
7
The following suggestions will enable you to observe
good working practices, keep yourself and fellow
workers safe and maintain your tools and equipment
in good working order.
This machine is supplied with a moulded 16 Amp. Plug
and 3 core power cable. Before using the tool inspect
the cable and the plug to make sure that neither are
damaged. If any damage is visible, have the tool
inspected/repaired by a suitably qualified person. If it is
necessary to replace the plug, it is preferable to use an
‘unbreakable’ type that will resist damage on site. Only
use a 16 Amp plug, and make sure the cable clamp is
tightened securely. Fuse as required. If extension leads
are to be used, carry out the same safety checks on them,
and ensure that they are correctly rated to safely supply
the current that is required for your machine.
If the machine gets wet; dry it off as soon as possible
with a cloth. Do not use 230V a.c. powered tools in damp
locations and do not trail extension cables across wet
areas. Keep the tools clean, do not use any solvents or
cleaners, as these may cause damage to any plastic parts
or to the electrical components.
Keep the work area as uncluttered as is practical, this
includes personnel as well as material.
Under no circumstances should CHILDREN be allowed
in work areas.
It is good practice to leave the machine unplugged until
work is about to commence, also make sure to unplug
the machine when it is not in use, or unattended. Always
disconnect by pulling on the plug body and not the
cable. Once you are ready to commence work, remove
any tools used in the setting operations (if any) and
place safely out of the way. Re-connect the machine.
Carry out a final check e.g. check the cutting tool, drill bit
etc., are securely tightened in the machine, check you
have the correct speed and function set, check that the
power cable will not‘snag’etc.
Make sure you are comfortable before you start work,
Good Working Practices/ Safety

Mains Powered Tools Primary Precautions
WARNING! KEEP TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT
OUT OF THE REACH OF YOUNG CHILDREN
balanced, not reaching etc. If the work you are carrying
out is liable to generate flying grit, dust or chips, wear the
appropriate safety clothing, goggles, gloves, masks etc. If
the work operation appears to be excessively noisy, wear
ear-defenders. If you wear your hair in a long style,
wearing a cap, safety helmet, hairnet, even a sweatband,
will minimise the possibility of your hair being caught
up in the rotating parts of the machine, likewise,
consideration should be given to the removal of rings
and wristwatches, if these are liable to be a ‘snag’hazard.
Consideration should also be given to non-slip footwear,
etc. If you are allowing another person to use the
machine, ensure that they are suitably qualified to use it.
Do not use the machine if you are tired, your attention is
wandering or you are being subjected to distraction. A
deep cut, a lost fingertip or worse is not worth it!
Check that cutters, drills etc., are the correct type and
size, are undamaged and are kept clean and sharp, this
will maintain their operating performance and lessen the
loading on the machine. Above all, OBSERVE…. make
sure you know what is happening around you, and USE
YOUR COMMON SENSE.
Make sure the saw blade is the correct type for the job in
hand.
Do not force the saw, if the saw begins to ‘stall’ you are
‘forcing the cut’ or over working the saw. Ensure that
the saw blade is clean and sharp. Resin build up on
the blades will increase the friction of the saw passing
through the timber, and cause over heating of the blade,
blunt teeth will work harder tearing the fibre of the
timber as opposed to shearing it, also with subsequent
overheating. Both faults unnecessarily load the machine
beyond normal usage, and shorten its longevity.
Do not use blades that are damaged in any way.
Do not remove the blade guard.The design of the riving
knife on the machine will not allow for slotting or‘blind’
grooving, so there is no reason to remove the guard.
There is adequate clearance under the guard for the
capacity of the machine.
Do not use any blades that cut a smaller kerf than the
riving knife thickness. Make sure the riving knife is
correctly adjusted to the blade and is securely fastened.
If the table insert becomes damaged or broken, and will
not support the timber ‘up close’ to the blade, replace it.
Specific Safety Precautions

Specific Safety Precautions
8
Do not start the saw with the workpiece touching the
blade.
FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY NEVER
OPERATE THE TABLE SAW WITHOUT
THE RIVING KNIFE IN PLACE!
Do not commence sawing until the blade has run up to
full speed. After switching off, never try to slow the saw
down more quickly by applying side pressure (with a
piece of wood?) to the blade. Apply the old joiner’s adage
of never getting hands within one handbreadth of the
blade. Leave the machine disconnected from the mains
supply until you are about to commence work.
Always disconnect the machine if you are leaving it
unattended.
Never leave the vicinity of the machine unless the blade
has come to a complete stop.
Do not attempt to carry out any maintenance, corrective
work, setting up etc., unless the machine is disconnected
from the mains supply. If any tools have been used
during setting up procedures, make sure they are
removed from the machine and stowed safely away.
Do not attempt to carry out cross cutting operations
‘freehand’, always use the mitre fence for small material
and the sliding carriage for larger workpieces. Unless you
are an experienced machine operator, do not attempt to
‘rip’ freehand, always use the guiding facility of the rip
fence. It is perfectly acceptable to support, guide, and
feed the timber with your hands whilst ripping stuff of
some length, however, as you approach the blade ensure
that the push stick is to hand, and that you use it.
Remember the emphasis of the ‘push’ should be between
the blade and the fence and close to the fence. Use your
free hand to support and guide the material on the
offside of the saw blade and at least 100mm away from
it. If the timber does not extend to at least 100mm to the
offside of the saw blade, the material possibly does not
need guiding or supporting.
Check (especially on site), that there are no foreign
objects e.g. old nails, screws, small stones etc embedded
in the material you are about to cut. If necessary take a
wire brush to the timber before working.

PLEASE NOTE: The panel saw comes 80% assembled,
in order to reduce the footprint of the machine for
packaging, several items are dismounted from the
machine and need to be re-affixed. please check all
the boxes, packets etc, to make sure that all the parts have
been accounted for.
Having unpacked the boxes, (please dispose of any
unwanted packaging responsibly), put the parts and
components where by they are readily to hand. Break
down the main box by knocking the sides away (be
careful of exposed nails etc.), but leave the machine
sitting on its pallet. Remove the protective grease film
that is coating all the unpainted parts of the machine.
Use a proprietary de-greasing agent. Unfortunately, this
cleaning process is always a bit ‘mucky’. You are advised
to wear overalls or coveralls etc., during the process.
After cleaning, lightly coat the exposed metal surfaces
with ‘anti rust’ oil spray to prevent any rusting.
