movement or loss of parts of the machine.
POSITION/WORK STATION
Place the machine on a work bench or on a sufficiently
flat base/pedestal to ensure the best possible stability.
Bearing in mind ergonomic criteria, the ideal height of
the bench or of the base should be such that the base
surface or the upper work surface is between 90 and 95
cm. from the ground.
Always ensure that there is at least 80 cm. of manoeu-
vring space in all directions around the machine in or-
der to perform all necessary cleaning, maintenance and
adjust ment operations safely with a sufficient amount of
space available.
CAUTION: Ensure the machine is placed in a suitable
position both in terms of environmental conditions and
lighting.
Always bear in mind that general environmental condi-
tions are of fundamental importance to prevent acci-
dents.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Check that the electrical system to which the machine is
connected is earthed in compliance with current safety
regulations and that the current socket is in perfect con-
dition.
The electrical system must be fitted with a magnetother-
mal protective device to safeguard all conductors from
short circuits and overload.
The selection of this device should be in line with the
following electrical specifications of the machine stated
on the motor.
NOTE: Your mitre-saw's electrical system is equipped
with an undervoltage relay which automatically opens the
circuit when the voltage falls below a minimum pre-est-
ablished limit and which prevents the self-reset of ma-
chine functions when voltage returns to normal levels.
If the machine stops involutarily, do not be allarmed.
Make sure that there has not been a voltage failure in the
electrical system.
ADJUSTING
ATTENTION: All the adjustment procedures illustrated be-
low must be performed when the machine's engine is off.
Cross-cutting Operation:
Swiveling the Table Top (Fig. 2)
By turning the table, the undercut mitre saw can be
moved to the left and right-hand side. Using the scale, an
exact angle setting is possible. 15°, 22,5°, 30°, angles
from 0° to 45° can be fast and precisely set.
For swinging the turning table, release the locking screw
(8) and turn the unit at the handle (1) until the desired
angle is obtained. Then secure with locking screw (8).
Tilting the Saw Unit (Fig. 3)
The saw unit can be tilted up to an angle of 45º.
Loosen the hand grip (24) on the back of the machine
and, using the scale, tilt the unit to the desired angular
pos ition. The angle can be determined using the indica-
tor (25) on the scale (23). Finally, the hand grip must be
securely re-tightened.
Operations
After having performed all the above procedures and
opera tions, you may begin cutting.
ATTENTION: Always keep hands away from the cutting
area and do not try to approach it when the machine is
running.
Cross-cutting Operation (Fig. 4)
• Release the locking button (13)
• Raise the saw unit using the hand grip (1) until the
unit locks into the uppermost position.
• Press the work piece uniformly against the block bars
(30), while assuring that your hand is outside the cut-
ting zone of the saw blade.
• With the right hand on the hand grip (1), press the
ratchet lever (9), so that the unit can be swiveled
downward.
• After pressing of the start button (2) the engine starts
running.
• Apply the saw blade slowly to the work piece and cut
through it by applying slight pressure.
• Swing the unit back into the starting position until it
locks into place.
• Release the hand grip (1), so that the motor shuts off.
Changing the saw blade (Fig. 5)
• Pull the power plug.
• Put the sawing unit in the upper position.
• Release the movable saw blade guard (11) by press-
ing the lock (9) and lifting the saw blade guard at the
same time to free the saw blade.
• Release the saw blade fixing screw (Attention: left-
handed thread).
• Remove bolt (3) and saw blade flange (4).
• Take off the saw blade with caution (risk of injury
through saw blade teeth).
• Place the new saw blade onto the inner saw blade
flange, observing the turning direction of the saw
blade.
• Put the outer saw blade flange in place and firmly
tighten the screw.
• Return the saw blade guard to the correct position.
Replacing the laser's batteries (fig. 6)
• Remove the laser battery compartment cover 16. Re-
move both batteries.
• Replace both batteries with the same or an equivalent
type. Make sure that the poles face in the same direc-
tion as the old batteries.
• Close the battery compartment cover.
