This machine utilises four interchangeable 250mm diameter circular saws: a general purpose blade, a fine panel cutting blade, a saw for acrylics and a coarse blade for ripping hardwood planks down end grain. The blade can be tilted to 45° as can the extended crosscut fence. This arm is calibrated square and dimensionally accurate. It can be removed for wide ripping and extended. The fence has two stops for extended repetition cuts. The sliding carriage which supports the cross-cut arm is also removable and can be taken off for large plank rips. For ripping or deep cutting solids the Wadkin has a 75mm height capacity. The 1.2m pull-off-table at the rear of the saw must be in place at all times; it supports sawn work and ensures saw operatives pulling work from saw are a safe distance from cutting blade. It is industry spec and capable of highly accurate and extended work demands.

Only qualified and experienced operatives are permitted to work this highly dangerous woodworking machine, it can only be operated by qualified, experienced authorised workshop staff. Members can request machining time and so hire SP 130 as other equipment by the hour.
