ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION
WARNING:
Always disconnect the saw from the power source
before making any adjustments.
MITRE HANDLE LOCKING KNOB
Attach the Mitre Handle Locking Knob by screwing it into its
service position at the end of the Mitre Handle.
(Fig. 1)
PERMANENTLY MOUNTING THE TABLE/MITRE SAW
To reduce the risk of injury from unexpected movement, place
the machine in the desired location either on a workbench or
other suitable machine stand. The base of the machine has four
mounting holes through which suitable bolts (not supplied) can
be placed to secure the Mitre Saw. If the machine is to be used in
one location only, permanently fasten it to the workbench using
appropriate fastenings (not supplied). Use locking washers and
nuts on the underside of the workbench.
(Fig. 2)
• Tighten the Mitre Handle Locking Knob to secure the
Rotary Table at 0° mitre angle.
(See Figs 29-31)
• Tighten the Bevel Lock Lever to secure the Cutting Head at
0° bevel angle.
(See Fig. 12)
• To avoid possible injury from flying debris, position the saw
so that other people or bystanders cannot stand too close
(or behind) it where they could be in ‘harms way’.
• Locate the saw on a firm, level surface where there is plenty
of room for handling and properly supporting (especially
long) workpiece(s).
• The machines table and the rotary table should be level and
the machine should not rock.
• Bolt or clamp the saw securely to its support stand
or workbench.
FOR PORTABLE USE:
• Mount the saw on a piece of kitchen worktop or on a (min)
18mm thick piece of plywood or MDF (600mm x 400mm min
size recommended) using appropriate fastenings (not supplied).
• It may be necessary to countersink the washers, nuts, etc. to
the underside of the worktop, plywood or MDF mounting
board to avoid an uneven work surface.
• Use G-clamps to attach the mounting board to the work
surface.
