Adjusting the Mitre Angle
Warning!
Ensure the mitre table lock knob (25) is tight before making a cut.
If it is not secured, the table may move during operation and cause serious
personal injury.
The mitre table lock knob (25) is used to lock the
rotating mitre table (23) at the required mitre angle
(Fig. 4).
The Mitre Saw cuts from 0° to 45° both left and right.
The rotating mitre table (23) features positive stops at 0°,
15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45° for quick and accurate setting of
common mitre angles. The mitre angle indicator (26)
shows what mitre angle the Mitre Saw is set to.
To adjust the mitre angle proceed as follows.
1. Loosen the mitre lock table knob (25) by turning in an anti-clockwise direction.
2. You can now set the desired mitre angle by rotating
the mitre table (23) to the left or right, use the mitre
angle indicator (26) to select the required mitre angle
(Fig. 5).
3. When the desired mitre angle is set, tighten the
mitre table locking knob (25) by turning in a
clockwise direction.
Adjusting the Bevel Angle
The bevel lock knob (13) is used to lock the cutting head (4) at the required bevel
angle. The Mitre Saw bevel cuts from 0° to 45° to the left.
1. Turn the bevel lock knob (13) in an anti-clockwise
direction to release the bevel lock and adjust the
cutting head (4) to the required bevel angle as
shown by the bevel angle indicator (12) (Fig. 6).
2. Turn the bevel lock knob (13) in a clockwise
direction to tighten the bevel lock at the required
bevel angle.
Warning!
Ensure the bevel lock knob (13) is tight before making a cut. If it is
not secured, the cutting head (4) may move during operation and cause
serious personal injury.
