ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION!
Be sure that the mitre saw is switched off and disconnected from any current source
before any adjustment, maintenance or cleaning work and before changing the blade.
After carrying out all the adjustments, ensure that all wrenches and tools are away from
the machine, and that all screws, bolts and other locking devices are correctly blocked.
Do not use the mitre saw before following these procedures.
While carrying out these adjustments, check that all parts of the machine correctly work
and are in good conditions.
Any damage or broken part must be replaced by a skilled person before use.
