Mitre cutting at 0° to 45° and rotary table to 0°
(Fig. 2, 13, 16)
• The machine can carry out mitre cuts to the left of
0°- 45° to the work surface.
• Move the machine head to the upper position. Set
the rotary table (11) to the 0° position.
• Loosen the lock screw (21) and tilt the machine
head to the left, using the handle (5) until the indica
-
tor (43) on the machine head points to the required
value on the angle indicator (42). Retighten the lock
screw (21) and carry out the cut as described in
„
Chop cutting at 90° and rotary table at 0°
“.
Mitre cutting at 0° to 45° and rotary table at -50°
to + 60° (Fig. 13, 17)
• This machine can carry out mitre cuts to the left
from 0° to 45° to the work surface and, simultane
-
ously, from -50° to + 60° to the fence rail (double
mitre cut). Move the machine head to the upper
position.
• Loosen the rotary table (11) by releasing the locking
button. Set the required angle for the rotary table.
• Tighten the locking button (13) to secure the rotary
table (11).
• Loosen the lock screw (21) and tilt the machine
head to the left to the required angle (42), using the
handle (5). Retighten the lock screw (21).
• Carry out the cut as described in „
Chop cutting at
90° and rotary table at 0°
“.
Dust extraction (Fig. 13)
• The saw is equipped with an extraction nozzle (46)
for extracting dust. By using this, it is easy to attach
the machine to any dust extraction unit.
9. Maintenance and cleaning
m
WARNING
Before any adjustment, service or maintenance, dis-
connect the mains supply!
Replacing the saw blade (Fig. 18, 19, 20)
• Disconnect the mains; the saw blade must come to a
complete standstill.
• Set the saw to table mode as described in „
Use as
table saw
“.
• Loosen the screw (47) on the saw blade guard (37)
and lift the saw blade guard (37) from the bracket.
• To disassemble the upper saw table (4), loosen two
upper screws (48) on the upper saw table (4) and two
lower screws (49). Loosen the screw in the handle (5)
with an Allen key (30).
• Lift off the upper saw table.
• Set the saw to chopping mode as described in „
Use
as chop and mitre saw
“.
• Using one hand, place the Allen key (29) on the
flange screw (50).
•
Push the saw-shaft lock (6) firmly, and slowly turn
the flange screw (50) clockwise. After a maximum
of one turn, the saw-shaft lock (6) clicks into place.
•
Now using a little more force, loosen the flange
screw (50) clockwise.
•
Unscrew the flange screw (50) completely and re
-
move the outer flange (51).
•
Take the saw blade (12) from the inner flange (52)
and pull it upwards.
•
Carefully clean the flange screw (50), the outer
flange (51) and inner flange (52).
• Loosen the counter nut (41) and adjust the set
screw (40) until the angle between the saw blade
(12) and the rotary table (11) is 90°.
• Tighten the counter nut (41) again.
• Then check the position of the angle indicator (42).
If required, loosen the indicator (43) with a crosstip
screw driver, set it to the 0° on the dial (42) and
retighten the lock screw.
Chop cutting at 90° and rotary table at 0°(Fig. 2,
11)
• Turn on the saw by squeezing the on/off switch (22).
• Before starting to saw, wait until the saw blade has
reached its maximum rotational speed.
• Place the work piece on the lower sawing table (11)
and press it onto the fence rail with the left hand.
The material to be cut always has to be held tightly
to the surface so it does not move during cutting.
• Press the unlocking button (2) with the other hand
and move the machine head, using the handle (5),
evenly and with slight pressure downwards through
the work piece. After completing the cutting pro-
cess, return the machine head to the upper rest po-
sition and release the on/off switch (22).
WARNING!
Because of the return spring, the machine automati-
cally springs upwards, i.e. do not let go of the handle
after cutting but move the machine head upwards
slowly and with slight counter pressure.
Chop cutting at 90° and rotary table at -50° to +
60° (Fig. 11, 14)
This machine can carry out bevel cuts to the left and
to the right from -50° to + 60° to the fence rail.
• Loosen the rotary table (11) by releasing the locking
button (13).
• Using the locking button (13), set the rotary table
(11) to the required angle, i.e. the mark (c) on the
rotary table has to correspond to the required angle
on the dial (10) on the lower saw table (9).
• Tighten the lock screw (13) to secure the rotary ta-
ble (11).
• Carry out the cut as described in „
Chop cutting at
90° and rotary table at 0°
“.
Fine adjustment of the stop for mitre cutting at
45° (Fig. 2, 11, 13, 15)
• Stop bracket (d) not included.
•
Set the rotary table (11) to the 0° position.
• Loosen the lock screw (21) and tilt the machine
head to the left to 45°, using the handle (5).
• Lower the machine head after pushing the unlock-
ing button (2) on the handle (5).
•
Attach the stop bracket (d) at 45° between the saw
blade (12) and the rotary table (11).
•
Loosen the counter nut (45) and adjust the Allen
screw (44) until the angle between the saw blade
(12) and the rotary table (11) is exactly 45°.
•
Tighten the counter nut (45) again.
• Then check the position of the angle indicator (42).
If required, loosen the indicator (43) with a crosstip
screw driver, set it to the 0° on the dial (42) and
retighten the lock screw.
