After the lock lever (61) at the rear has
been loosened the saw can be tilted

45° to the left of vertical.

Caution!
To keep the bevel angle from changing
while sawing, the locking lever of the
track arm holder must be tightened.
Rotating table
For mitre cuts the rotating table can, af-
ter the lock screw (63) and the table
lock lever (62) have been loosened, be
rotated 47° to the left or 47° to the right.
This way the cutting angle is changed
against the guide edge of the work

Caution
To ensure that the mitre angle does not
change during cutting tighten the lock
screw (63) of the rotating table (also in
the preset positions!).
Push/pull action
The track arm permits the cutting of
workpieces having a larger cross sec-
tion. The push/pull action can be used
for all types of cuts (standard cross
cuts, mitre cuts, bevel cuts and com-
pound mitre cuts as well as grooves).
The following illustration shows the
track arm in the forward position.
When the track arm is not needed se-
cure it in the rear position with the lock
screw (64).
