and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. NOTE THE SAFE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS, WARNINGS AND
CAUTIONS. USE THIS PRODUCT CORRECTLY AND WITH CARE FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY
CAUSE DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY. PLEASE KEEP INSTRUCTIONS SAFE FOR FUTURE USE.
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
! WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical equipment and appliances, before using, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs
and all electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate
safety devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an
RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are
plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device
by contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by
a qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance
and the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power
supply. See 1.1.1. & 1.1.2. above and use a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply leads, plugs for wear and damage and power connections, to
ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply
to be used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13 amp plug may require
a fuse smaller than 13 amps for certain products, see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damage leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired by
a qualified electrician. A U.K. 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted. In case of damage, cut it off
and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(UK only - see diagram at right). Ensure the unit is correctly wired via a three-pin plug.
a) Note that this saw is double insulated and therefore there is no GREEN/YELLOW earth wire.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the cable outer insulation
extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products are fitted with live (BROWN) and neutral (BLUE) wires only. Double insulated products are always marked with
this symbol . To re-wire, connect the brown & blue wires as indicated above. DO NOT connect the brown or blue to the earth terminal.
1.1.10. Some products require more than a 13 amp electrical supply. In such a case, NO plug will be fitted. You must contact a qualified electrician
to ensure a 30 amp fused supply is available. We recommend you discuss the installation of a industrial round pin plug and socket with your electrician.
1.1.11. Cable extension reels. When a cable extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A cable reel with an RCD
fitted is recommended since any product which is plugged into the cable reel will be protected. The section of the cores of the cable
is important and should be at least 1.5mm2, but to be absolutely sure that the capacity of the cable reel is suitable for this product and
for others that may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use of 2.5mm2section cable.
1.2. GENERAL SAFETY

1.3. SPECIFIC SAW SAFETY RULES
#Connect to a suitable extraction system. Failure to do so will result in the build-up of sawdust which will become a fire hazard.
#Keep riving knife and blade guard in place and operational, and replace table insert when worn.
#Ensure that the saw blade is suitable for the material to be cut.
!WARNING! Before each use, check that the saw blade is secure and not worn or damaged.
#Use the blade guard for all “through-sawing” operations. Through-sawing operations are those where the blade cuts completely through the
workpiece as in ripping or cross-cutting.
#Check workpiece to ensure that there are no nails or other items which may foul the saw blade.
#Hold the work firmly against the fence bar.
#Only feed the workpiece into the blade against the rotation of the blade.
#Avoid subjecting the saw blade to excessive strain - never force the workpiece. Maintain a controlled, steady progression.
#Should the saw blade jam, switch the power off immediately to prevent damage to the motor.
#To avoid “kickback” (when a workpiece is violently thrown back towards the operator) implement the following:
a) Keep the blade sharp. b) Keep the fence parallel to the saw blade. c)DO NOT release the workpiece before it is pushed all the way
past the saw blade. d) DO NOT rip work that is twisted or warped or does not have a straight edge to guide along the fence.
#Use a push stick for ripping narrow stock.
#Provide adequate support to the rear and sides of the saw table for long or wide workpieces.
$DO NOT use your hands alone (“free-hand”) to guide the workpiece. Hold work firmly against the fence bar to guide work through the saw.
$DO NOT place yourself in an awkward operating position where a slip could cause your hand to move into the blade.
$DO NOT stand, or have any part of your body, in line with the path of the saw blade.
$DO NOT use the fence as a cut-off gauge when cross-cutting.
$DO NOT hold what will become the off-cut (the waste part of the workpiece).
!WARNING! DO NOT reach behind or over the saw blade.
!WARNING! DO NOT attempt to free a jammed saw blade without first switching off and removing the plug from the mains power supply
and ensure that the blade has come to a complete stop.
$DO NOT cut metals or substances that may produce toxic dust. Saw must only be used to cut wood or wood derived materials.
$DO NOT attempt to cut round section wood.
$DO NOT use solvents to clean plastic parts. Use a soft damp cloth only.
#Store saw and blades in a safe, dry childproof location.

TS12CZ.V2 - 1 - 080107
4.15 Attaching the wheels. The wheels, axle and wheel brackets should be assembled as shown in fig.2. The wheel brackets are ‘handed’
and should be orientated as shown in fig.7. Take the wheel axle and attach two circlips to the two grooves nearest to the centre of the
axle. Slide a wheel over each end of the axle followed by the correct bracket. Retain the wheels and brackets by attaching another
circlip to each end of the axle.
4.16 Attach the wheel brackets to legs 5 & 6 respectively using two sets of fixings for each bracket as shown in fig.7. Leave the fixings
loose at this stage.
4.17 Final tightening of bolts. Prior to turning the machine upright, finally tighten all bolts except those holding the wheel brackets.
4.18 Turn the saw over to stand upright. Do not do this on your own but get someone to help you as the machine is too heavy and large for
one person to lift and manoeuvre.
4.19 Loosen the wheel brackets slightly and position the wheels so that they are just touching the ground. Re-tighten the wheel brackets.
4.20 Attaching the transit handles. The transit handles need to be assembled to legs 3 and 4 as shown in fig.3. Take the two brackets
(part no.125) and bolt one to each leg using two sets of fixings for each one. Slide each handle (part no.122) into the bracket and
retain it with an M8 x 50mm pivot bolt (part no.124) and locknut.
4.21 Bolt the push stick hook to leg 4 in the position shown in fig.4.
4.22 Assembling the angle ruler. Slide the angle ruler assembly onto the sliding guide at the side of the table. Pass two M6 x 16mm bolts
through the angle ruler plate and retain them loosely with the two butterfly nuts as shown in fig.X . The fence is usually vertically
orientated as indicated in fig.Y. When cutting thin and narrow workpieces the fence can be assembled flat onto the table as shown in
fig.Z. Fit the fence to the angle plate by sliding one of the grooves in the bar over the head of each M6 bolt. The fence bar is free to
slide backwards and forwards against the angle plate and can be locked in any position by tightening the butterfly nuts.
4.23 For cross cutting, the fence assembly will be a sliding fit in the fence guide on the side of the table. The angle of the fence can be
altered for cross cutting by loosening the large black knob. The required angle can be set using the scale before re-tightening the knob.
NOTE: When rip cutting set the angle to zero so that the fence is always parallel to the blade. Check this alignment on a
regular basis when rip cutting.

!WARNING! As with all power tools, there are potential hazards involved in the
use of this saw. It is, therefore, vital to ensure you have read and understood all
the safety instructions in Section 1. Familiarise yourself again with the specific
saw safety rules for each step of the following operation. Failure to do so could
cause serious damage and/or personal injury and may invalidate your warranty.
Disconnect the saw from the mains power before making any adjustments or
removing/fitting the blade. Ensure that all screws and nuts are secure and that the
blade is in good condition and correctly fitted.
Wear approved safety eye and respiratory protection.
!WARNING! Wood dust can be harmful to health by inhalation and skin contact
and concentrations of small dust particles in the air can form an explosive mixture.
Therefore, ensure that there is adequate ventilation and that the saw is attached to a
dust-extraction unit.
7.1. Cross cutting
7.1.1 When cross cutting, the fence assembly is mounted to the sliding guide on
the side of the table and will slide within the guide (fig.14). For angled cuts
loosen the large black knob on the angle plate and set the required angle
using the scale provided. Firmly tighten the black knob.
7.1.2 Adjust the side to side positioning of the fence bar so that as the workpiece is
moved towards the blade the bar is out of the line of cut and will not make
contact with any part of the blade guide.
7.1.3 If a bevelled cut is required set the blade angle as described above.
7.1.4. When the cross cut has been completed, the waste off-cut will be
unsupported and will either remain on the saw table or fall off. Before starting,
therefore, consider how you will handle the off-cut.
7.1.5. Check that everything is ready and that the blade guard is fully down.
Plug the saw into the mains power supply and switch the saw on.
7.1.6. Hold workpiece firmly against the guide assembly and table as shown in fig.13
7.1.7. Slowly move the workpiece forward into the rotating blade. Continue holding
the workpiece firmly whilst passing it completely past the blade so that it is cut into two.
7.1.8. Before drawing the workpiece back towards yourself, move it slightly to the side so that it is clear of the saw blade.
7.1.9 Switch the machine off.
!WARNING! DO NOT attempt to pick up an off-cut before the saw blade has completely stopped.
!WARNING! DO NOT use the fence as a cut-off gauge when cross-cutting.

TS12CZ.V2 - 1 - 080107
7.2. Rip cutting
!WARNING! The safety precautions stated at the beginning of this section must
be adhered to.
Ripping is when a board or similar workpiece is held against the fence and
cut along the length (fig.15). The fence is used to position and guide the
workpiece during cutting. The workpiece is laid flat on the saw table with one
edge held tightly against the fence. The riving knife will prevent the saw cut from
closing and binding the blade. Proceed as follows:
7.2.1 To rip cut, the sliding plate assembly is mounted onto the fence guide at the
front of the table and the fence is attached to it by slackening the two black
plastic knobs, sliding the fence onto the two M6 bolt heads, setting in position
and locking in place by tightening the two black plastic knobs.
7.2.2 Set the width of cut and then clamp the fence assembly in place by pushing
down the locking handle (fig.15).
7.2.3. Adjust the blade height to just exceed the thickness of the workpiece.
7.2.4. Ensure that the blade guard and its side plates are free to move as the workpiece
passes beneath them.
7.2.5. Before starting consider how you will handle the workpiece and the off-cut when
ripping is complete. Depending on the size and type of workpiece, off-cuts and
workpiece may remain on the table or fall to the floor. Ensure that the table
extension provided is fitted at the rear of the main saw table to prevent long
workpieces and off-cuts from falling. Off-cuts that remain on the table must not be
touched until the blade has completely stopped.
7.2.6. Ripping a workpiece more than 120mm wide
a) Hold the workpiece firmly against the fence and the table, and turn the saw on.
b) Ensure you are NOT standing in line with the blade. Hold workpiece firmly with both hands, pushing it along fence and into blade (fig. 15).
c) Continue to gradually feed the workpiece past the saw blade keeping your hands away from the blade guard.
d) Move the workpiece completely past the saw blade.
e) Once the cut is complete handle the workpiece and off-cut according to 7.2.5.
7.2.7. Workpiece less than 120mm but more than 30mm wide
Use the push stick provided to feed workpiece forward.
7.2.8. Workpiece 30mm wide or less
When ripping stock 30mm or less, position the fence as for thin workpieces (See fig.Z) and use a push block.
7.3. On/Off switch
The saw has a No-volt load switch which automatically switches the power off in the case of a power interruption. The
saw will not then restart ‘automatically’ when the power supply is reinstated.
