WARNING!
Always ensure the Mitre Saw is switched off and the plug is
removed before performing any adjustments or maintenance procedures.
Power Cable Maintenance
If the power cable (30) needs replacing, the task must be carried out by an
electrician or a power tool repairer in order to avoid a safety hazard.
Changing the Blade
CAUTION!
Never try to use a blade that is larger than the stated capacity of
the Mitre Saw. It might come into contact with the blade guards and risk personal
injury or damage to the Mitre Saw. This will not be covered under warranty.
CAUTION!
Never use a blade that is too thick to allow the outer blade
washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. It will prevent the blade screw
from properly securing the blade onto the spindle.
CAUTION!
Ensure that any spacers and spindle rings that may be required
suit the spindle and blade that are fitted.
1. Ensure the plug is disconnected from the mains
power supply.
2. Ensure the cutting head (4) is raised. If the head
locking pin (5) is locked in place, pull the head
locking pin (5) and gently raise the cutting head (4)
(Fig. 23).
3. Manually lift the retractable safety guard (9) until
the round cut-out in the retractable safety guard (9)
lines up with the bolt head in the centre of the
blade (10) (Fig. 24).
4. Insert the allen key (11) provided into the blade
bolt in the centre of the blade (10) (Fig. 25).
