SET-UP AND ADJUSTMENT
Unpacking
1. Remove the packaging materials from around the Mitre Saw and remove all
parts from the packaging.
2. Using the carry handle (5), carefully lift the Mitre
Saw from the packaging and place it on a level
work surface (Fig. 1).
WARNING!
Do not lift the Mitre Saw whilst
holding on to the guards. Use the carry
handle (5).
3. The Mitre Saw has been shipped with the cutting
head (3) in the locked down position. To release
the cutting head (3), push down on the top of the
cutting head (3), pull the head locking pin (4),
rotate it 90° (Fig. 2) and let go, then gently raise
the cutting head (3).
Transportation
Ensure the Mitre Saw is turned off and disconnected from the power source before
transporting. Lift the Mitre Saw only when the cutting head (3) is in the locked
down position and the slide bars are also locked in place. Only lift the Mitre Saw
by the carry handle (5) and rear castings. Do not lift the Mitre Saw using the upper
fixed blade guard (10), retractable safety guard (11) or the operating handle (6).
Bench Mounting
The base (20) of the Mitre Saw has four bench mounting
holes (23) that can be used to mount it to a workbench
or mitre saw stand (Fig. 3).
1. Mount the Mitre Saw onto a workbench or mitre
saw stand. Ensure the surface is level and balanced.
2. Use four screws and bolts (not included) to secure
the Mitre Saw to the workbench or mitre saw stand.
Note:
If required, the Mitre Saw can be mounted onto a 13mm piece (or thicker) of
plywood which can then be clamped to the work bench or mitre saw stand. This
provides the flexibility to transport the Mitre Saw to other work areas.
Note:
Ensure the mounting surface is not warped as an uneven surface can cause
binding and inaccurate cutting.
You can purchase an Ozito Mitre Saw Stand to fit this unit, available at your
local Bunnings Warehouse.
