Help assembling a saw table
Hello - I have a disassembled saw table for which I have no instructions, and want to ask whether anyone is familiar with the brand/type and can assist.
It is branded Power Chief, and is made in NZ. The manufacturer is Enviro-Module Industries Ltd, PO Box 14-452 panamure, Auckland, NZ. I can't get any search hits on this.
A brief description:
Blue enamelled steel. Table is 500 X 900 with a slot nearly bisecting it lengthways. There are 3 x 500 mm L-rails; 2 of which are vitreous enamelled. There are foldout legs, 4 x flat 25 mm X 500 mm pieces. There are many bolts etc, 4 nylon roller assemblies, and other sundry hardware.
Despite staring and experimenting, no logical assembly jumps out at me. I don't know what the final product should look like, but assume it is a table which enables a portable saw to be used to slide through cuts.
Any assistance appreciated. Thank you.

There is a company called Power Chief International in Auckland - perhaps they might know something

Deary me, that's a big slot (or a very small table-top...) Almost as if it's an "Unterflur-Zugsage" (read "Pull-Push Saw")
Got any more photos (specifically of the under-table assembly)?
Never seen one of them before, that's for sure.
Best Wishes,
Batpig.

Do you have any pictures of the other side of the 'table top'?
Are those U shaped legs hinged together?
