8.4 Sawdust bag (fig. 4)
The saw is equipped with a sawdust bag (17) for sawdust and
chips.
• Squeeze together the metal ring on the dust bag and attach
it to the outlet opening in the motor area.
• The sawdust bag (17) can be emptied by means of a zipper
at the bottom.
Connection to an external dust extractor
• Connect the vacuum hose with the dust extraction spout.
• The industrial vacuum cleaner must be suitable for the mate-
rial being worked.
• When vacuuming dust that is especially detrimental to health
or carcinogenic, use a special vacuum cleaner.
8.5 Checking the moving saw blade guard safety
device (5)
The saw blade guard protects against accidental contact with
the saw blade and from chips flying around.
Check function
To do so, fold the saw downwards:
• The saw blade guard must provide free access to the saw
blade without touching other parts.
• When folding the saw upwards into the starting position, the
saw blade guard must cover the saw blade automatically.
9. Attachment and operation
9.1 Attaching the cross cut mitre saw (fig.1 - 3)
• Release the rotary table (13) by loosening the set screw (7).
• Using the handle (3), set the rotary table (13) to the desired
angle.
NOTE
The cross cut mitre saw can be pivoted left and right with the
rotary table. Exact angle adjustment is possible on the basis
of the scale. The angle can be precisely and quickly adjusted
from 0° to 45° with locking positions at 15°, 22.5° and
30°.
• Retighten the set screw (7) in order to secure the rotary table.
• Pressing the machine head (4) lightly downwards and re-
moving the locking bolt (25) from the motor bracket at the
same time disengages the saw from the lowest position.
• Swing the machine head (4) up.
• It is possible to secure the clamping device (15) to the left
or right on the stationary saw table (9). Insert the clamping
device (15) in the hole on the rear side of the stop rail (8)
and secure it with the star grip screw (19).
• It is possible to tilt the machine head (4) a max. 45° to the
left by loosening the locking screw (23).
• Workpiece supports (18) must always be secured and used
during work.
9.2 Precision adjustment of the stop for crosscut at
90° (fig. 5)
No stop angle included.
• Lower the machine head (4) and secure it using the locking
bolt (25).
• Loosen the locking screw (23).
• Position the angle stop (A) between the saw blade (6) and
the rotary table (13).
• Loosen the lock nut (26a).
• Adjust the adjusting screw (26) until the angle between the
saw blade (6) and rotary table (13) is 90°.
• Re-tighten the lock nut (26a).
9.3 Crosscut at 90° and rotary table at 0° (fig.
1/2/3/6)
Important! To make 90° crosscuts, the adjustable
stop rail (8a) must be fixed at the inner position.
• Open the set screw (8b) for the adjustable stop rail (8a) and
push the adjustable stop rail (8a) inwards.
• The adjustable stop rail (8a) must be fixed far enough in
front of the innermost position that the distance between the
adjustable stop rail (8a) and the saw blade (6) amounts to
a maximum of 8 mm.
• Before making a cut, check that the adjustable stop rail (8a)
and the saw blade (6) cannot collide.
• Secure the set screw (8b) again.
• Move the machine head (4) to its upper position.
• Place the piece of wood to be cut at the stop rail (8) and on
the rotary table (13).
• Lock the material with the clamping devices (15) on the fixed
saw table (9) to prevent the material from moving during the
cutting operation. See section 9.12.
• Release the lock switch (2) and press the ON/OFF switch
(1) to start the motor.
• Use the handle (3) to move the machine head (4) steadily
and with light pressure downwards until the saw blade (6)
has completely cut through the work piece.
• When the cutting operation is completed, move the machine
head back to its upper (home) position and release the ON/
OFF button (1).
Attention!
The machine executes an upward stroke automatically due
to the return spring, i.e. do not release the handle (3) after
completing the cut; instead allow the machine head to move
upwards slowly whilst applying light counter pressure.
9.4 Crosscut at 90° and rotary table between 0°
and 45°(fig. 1/2/3/6)
The cross cut mitre saw can be used to make crosscuts of 0°
-45° to the left and 0° -45° to the right in relation to the stop
rail.
Important!
To make 90° crosscuts, the adjustable stop rail (8a)
must be fixed at the inner position.
• Open the set screw (8b) for the adjustable stop rail (8a) and
push the adjustable stop rail (8a) inwards.
• The adjustable stop rail (8a) must be fixed far enough in
front of the innermost position that the distance between the
adjustable stop rail (8a) and the saw blade (6) amounts to
a maximum of 8 mm.
• Before making a cut, check that the adjustable stop rail (8a)
and the saw blade (6) cannot collide.
• Secure the set screw (8b) again.
• Release the rotary table (13) by loosening the set screw (7).
• Using the handle (3), set the rotary table (13) to the desired
angle.
• Retighten the set screw (7) in order to secure the rotary table.
• Cut as described under section 9.3.
