INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Special safety instructions
Check that the ventilation slots on the motor are
not blocked.
Never stop the saw blade by applying pressure to
the saw or to the side of the blade.
Always use the correct type of blade for the type of
work to be performed. The saw is intended for
sawing wood, particle board, fibre board, plastic or
similar and must not be used for anything else.
Never use blades that are bent or have missing
teeth.
Never use blades that are too large or small.
Never use high-speed steel blades.
Never use blades with a maximum RPM less than
that of the tool.
Check that the orientation of the blade matches
the rotation direction of the motor. The saw blade
teeth must point downwards towards the saw table
on the front of the saw.
Always use protective gloves when handling the
blade. Never put your hand under the mitre saw or
try to remove material from the working area
while the blade is rotating. Never place your
fingers or hand on the item being cut in front,
behind or under the mitre saw while it is running.
Never saw more than one item at a time.
Use extra supports (table, trestles or similar) for
long items so they do not tip off the workbench
when sawing.
Do not saw items that are so small they cannot be
safely clamped.
Never adjust the mitre angle or bevel angle while
the saw is running.
Always keep the spindle and flanges for fitting saw
blades clean.
Never use the mitre saw if the blade guard is not
working correctly.
The blade guard should close automatically when
the mitre saw is not in use, and must NEVER be
secured open.
Never allow the blade to be in contact with the
item to be cut, or other objects, when starting
the saw.
Check that the item does not contain nails,
screws or other objects that may damage the saw
blade.
The saw blades will not stop immediately when
you release the on/off button.
Preparation and adjustment
Assembly and preparation
Attach the mitre saw to a workbench using
assembly bolts.
To lift the top of the saw so that it is ready for
use, you must push the top down slightly and
press the release latch (1) down. The top of the
saw can now be lifted to the raised position and
locked in place.
Setting the mitre angle
Loosen the mitre adjustment screw (9), and turn
the saw table (7) to the required mitre angle
(max. 45° to the left or right). The angle can be
read on the graduated scale (8) at the front of the
saw table. Tighten the adjustment screw and
check that the guide (6) cannot be moved.
Setting the bevel angle
Undo the bevel angle adjustment bolt (13) using
a socket wrench, and tilt the top of the mitre saw
to the desired angle (0-45° from vertical).
Retighten the bevel angle adjustment bolt. You
can read the bevel angle on the angle gauge (12).
Connecting the extractor nozzle
Attach the hose from the extractor nozzle to the
extractor nozzle pipe (14), and ensure the
extractor nozzle is on when the saw is in use.
Fitting table extensions
Insert the table extensions in the holes (11) on
the side of the base (10) if large items are to be
sawn.
