▪
Lower the blade guard (1) and verify that the operation of the guard does not bind or stick.
▪
Be sure the arbor lock is released so the blade turns freely before operating the saw.
WARNING! 1) To avoid injury, never use the saw without the cover plate
securely in place. It keeps the arbor bolt from falling out if it accidentally
loosens and helps prevent the spinning blade from coming off the saw. 2)
Make sure the collars are clean and properly arranged. Lower the blade into
the lower table and check for any contact with the metal base or the mitre
table. 3) To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure the switch is in
the OFF position and the plug is not connected to the power source outlet.
4) Never cut metals or masonry products with this tool. This mitre saw is
designed for use on wood and wood-like products only.
9 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
9.1
Transporting the mitre saw
To transport the power tool, use the retaining pin (17).
Pull the mitre saw downwards and lock it in the lowered position by pushing in the retaining
pin. That way, the saw is secured.
To unlock and lock the slide bar (13), turn the slide bar lock knob (21) counterclockwise or
clockwise. Slide the machine handle to the front and lock by turning the slide bar knob (21)
clockwise.
9.2
Dust and chip extraction
For integrated dust extraction, place the dust bag (18) on the sawdust outlet.
For external dust, you can use a vacuum cleaner hose.
The dust bag is only for a partial dust removal! It is designed to break the
dust extraction.
9.3
Clamping the work piece
Make sure the work piece can’t be catapulted. The clamp(11) is the most perfect gadget to
avoid this.
▪
Press the work piece against the fence (4) and between the clamp
▪
Tighten the clamp (11) clockwise to secure the work piece.
9.4
Horizontal mitre angle
The horizontal mitre angle can be set in the range from -45° to 45°. The horizontal mitre angle
scale shows the currently set in degrees.
▪
Loosen the turntable lock screw (26)
▪
To adjust the turntable (5), squeeze the trigger underneath the locking handle (6) and
hold it.
▪
Turn the turntable and scale pointer (25) to the desired angular setting on the dial (8) and
lock into place with the locking handle (6) and tighten the turntable lock screw (26)
9.5
Adjusting of the cutting angle
▪
Position the saw in the lower position and block it with the retaining pin.
▪
Now hold the try square (90°) against the guide rail and the saw blade. The latter must
make complete contact with the try square. If this is not the case, then you can adjust the
angle by loosening the counter nut and adjust with adjustment bolts until the angle
between the blade and the turn table equals 90°.
▪
To carry out this step, use the delivered key for loosening the screws. Do not forget to re-
tighten the screws afterwards.
