4. Operation
Using the mitre saw
Fig. 1
Before use, always check for faults or
defects!
• Set the desired sawing angle of the machine.
• Put the plug into the socket.
• Fix the piece of work in place using the clamps
(24): make sure that the material is well
clamped in place!
• Hold the material tightly on the left side while
making sure that you keep a safe distance
from the blade of the saw.
• Turn on the machine using the switch (1).
• Make sure that the saw blade has reached full
speed before allowing it to touch the piece of
work to be sawn.
• Use knob (2) to raise the protective cover lock.
• Now bring the saw slowly downwards so that
the saw blade saws through the piece of work
and passes through the slot in the table. Do
not put any pressure on the saw. Give the
machine time to saw through the piece of
work.
• Bring the machine gently up again and switch
it off by letting go of the switch (1).
