6. Repeat steps 3-5 until the blade is at 45° to the
table. Once alignment is achieved, tighten the locknut (5 -
Fig. 12).
33.9° Bevel Adjustment (Fig. 12, 13, 14)
1. Set the mitre angle to zero degree. Fully extend
both sliding fence.
2. Loosen the bevel lock handle (4 - Fig. 14) and tilt
cutting arm completely to the 33.9° left position stop by
pushing in on the bevel detent pin toward the rear of the

12) until the blade is 33.9° to the table.
5. Repeat steps for the right bevel 33.9° bevel
adjustment.
Mitre Angle Adjustment (Fig. 14)
The sliding compound mitre saw scale can be easily
read showing mitre angles from 0° to 45° to the left, and
0° to 60° to the right. The most common angle cut setting
slots have positive stops, permitting fast adjustments to the
desired position. Follow the process below for quickest and
most accurate adjustments.

1. Turn the upper arm assembly to the 0° bevel
position, and lock in position.
2. Using a hex key wrench, loosen the four fence
locking hex socket bolts (1) one full turn, until the fence (2)
is loose.
3. Lower the cutting head assembly and lock it in the
down position with the stop pin.
4. Using a combination square (3), lay the heel of
the square against the blade, and the rule against the
fence (2) as shown. Check to see if the fence is 90° to the
blade.
5. If an adjustment is necessary, shift the fence
forward or backward until the fence is square to the blade.
Tighten the four fence locking bolts (1).
CAUTION: If the saw has not been used recently,
recheck blade squareness to the fence and readjust if
needed.
Positive Stop Mitre Angle Adjustment (Fig. 16)
1. Unlock the mitre table by lifting up on the mitre
quick-cam table lock (3).
2. While raising the positive stop locking lever (2) up,
grasp the mitre handle and rotate the mitre table left or right
to the desired angle.
3. Release the positive stop locking lever and set the
mitre at the desired angle making sure the lever snaps into
place.
4. Press down on the mitre quick-cam table lock (3)
until it locks the mitre table in place.
NOTE: The lever will only lock into place at one of the
ten positive stops. To lock the table at all other degrees,
see next section.
Quick-Cam Mitre Table Lock Operation (Fig. 16)
If mitre angles required are NOT one of the nine
positive stops noted above, the mitre table can be locked at
any angle between these positive stops by using the mitre
quick-cam table lock.
1. Unlock the mitre table by lifting up on the mitre
quick-cam table lock (3).
2. While holding the positive stop locking lever (2) up,
grasp the mitre handle and move the mitre table left or right
to the desired angle.
3. Release the positive stop locking lever.
4. Press down on the mitre quick-cam table lock(3)
until it locks the mitre table in place.
NOTE: The mitre quick-cam table lock should lock the
table and prevent it from moving. If adjustment is needed,
see next step.
Quick-Cam Mitre Table Lock Adjustment (Fig. 16)
1. Press down and lock the quick-cam the mitre quick-
cam table lock.
2. Turn the stop nut (5) to the left as shown using a 13
mm wrench to extend the locking arm against the base of
the mitre saw.
3. Test the quick cam mitre lock to verify it locks the
table into position securely.
4. Turn the lock nut (6) to the right as shown to lock the
mitre locking mechanism into place.
The Upfront Supports Adjustment (Fig. 31, 32)
1. Wide pieces need upfront supports (1). Rotate the
two upfront supports (1) toward the rear of the saw.
NOTE: These supports (1) should be placed into the 0
position as shown in Fig. 31 before transporting.
Adjusting The Vice (Fig. 6-1) (Mod. SRF305/1800E)
NOTE: The dual-switch vice is used for hold-down
clamping and predetermined angle (45°) clamping. When
starting the tube workpiece cut or crown moulding cut,
switch the vice to predetermined angle clamping.
1. Unlock the knob, and detach the vice holder from
the support rod.
2. Insert the support rod into the rear hole of the vice
holder.
NOTE: The flat side of the support rod should be
faced to the knob.
3. Adjust the support rod to the desired location, and
then tighten the knob.
CONNECTING TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Through poor conditions of the electrical MAINS,
shortly voltage drops can appear when starting the
EQUIPMENT. This can influence other equipment (e.g.
blinking of a lamp). If the MAINS-IMPEDANCE Zmax <
0.32 OHM, such disturbances are not expected. (In case
of need, you may contact your local supply authority for
further information).
Check that the power supply and outlet used is
in accordance with your mitre saw. Have a look at the
rating plate of the motor or the rating on the mitre saw.
Any changes should always be carried out by a qualified
electrician.
This is a double insulated tool which eliminates the
need for earthed power supply system.
WARNING! Avoid contact with the terminals on the
plug when installing (removing) the plug to (from) the power
supply outlet. Contact will cause a severe electrical shock.
Using an Extension Lead
The use of any extension lead will cause some
