Removing the single support leg (fig. B1 & B2)
The single support leg (9) is clamped to the main frame (1) (fig. B1).
• Place the main frame against the workbench as shown (fig. B1) with
the support leg pointing towards you.
• Slacken the locking knob (20).
• Pull the leg down to release it from the upper bracket.
• Remove the leg by sliding it out of the lower bracket (21).
Fitting the end legs (fig. C1 - C4)
• Insert the lower parts (7) into the upper parts (8) of the end legs (fig. C1).
• Insert a locking knob (22) into each of the upper parts.
• Expose the lower parts for approx. 40 cm and tighten the locking
knobs.
• Insert a locking knob (23) into the square socket (24) on the upper part
of each leg (8) (fig. C2).
• Slide a leg (8) onto each side of the end of the main frame (1) (fig. C3).
Note that the left and right legs are different. The locking knobs should be
facing outwards, the legs should be angled outwards as shown (fig. C4).
Mounting the roller support table to your flip-over saw in mitre saw
mode (fig. D1 - D5)
The roller support table can be mounted either to the left or to the right of the
saw (fig. D1). It is also possible to mount a roller support table to both sides.
• Insert two locking knobs (25) into the threaded sockets in the cross
member (26) (fig. D2).
• Insert the short, straight ends of the irregular steel tubes (5) into the
holes in the cross member as shown and lightly tighten the locking
knobs (25) (fig. D2).
• Insert a screwdriver into the hole in the tubes as shown to rotate the
tubes and align them with the holes (28) in the side of the base of your
saw (fig. D3 & D4).
• Adjust the legs to approximately the correct height.
• Slacken the two locking knobs (27) in the base of the saw and move
the table towards the saw, guiding the tubes (5) into the holes (28)
(fig. D4 & D5).
• Insert only the bright turned end of the tubes into the saw base.
• Rotate the tubes until the table is correctly aligned with the saw table.
• Firmly tighten the locking knobs in the base of the saw and the locking
knobs in the cross member.
• Set the legs to the correct height and tighten all locking knobs.
Mounting the guide fence (fig. A, E1 - E4)
The guide fence (2) is provided with a cut-to-length extension (10) (fig. A).
• Insert the foot of one of the clamping screws M6 x 22 (29) into the slot
(30) in the fence (2) (fig. E1).
• Place the hole (31) in the upper left corner of the bracket (32) over the
clamping screw (fig. E2).
• Place a flat washer M6 on the clamping screw and screw on a star
knob (33).
• Mount the second bracket in the same way.
• Insert the foot of a clamping screw M6 x 22 (34) into the slot in each of
the two struts (36) (fig. E3).
• Position the brackets (32) with the holes onto the clamping screws.

Mounting the cut-to-length stop (fig. F1 & F2)
The stop fits into the narrow slot (38) on top of the fence.

• Insert the foot of a clamping screw M6 x 22 (43) into the end of the slot
(44) in the extension.
• Slide the clamping screw until it is located in the cut-out (45) in the
fence (2) (fig. G2).
• Insert a locking knob into the socket on the underside of the support
bracket.
• Insert the foot of a clamping screw M6 x 22 (48) into the fence
extension (10) and slide the support bracket (12) onto the extension
(fig. G3).
• Slide the clamping screw (48) to the rear until it engages in the cut-out
(49) (fig. G4).
