6. Before putting the machine into
operation
The machine must be set up where it can stand
securely, i.e. it should be bolted to a workbench,
a universal base frame or similar.
All covers and safety devices have to be properly
fitted before the machine is switched on.
It must be possible for the saw blade to run
freely.
When working with wood that has been
processed before, watch out for foreign bodies
such as nails or screws etc.
Before you actuate the On/Off switch, make sure
that the saw blade is correctly fitted and that the
machine’s moving parts run smoothly.
Before you connect the machine to the power
supply, make sure the data on the rating plate is
the same as that for your mains.
Important:
This machine was exactly adjusted before it left the
factory. For the best results you should check the
accuracy of the following settings and make
corrections as necessary.
6.1 Setting the angle stop to 90° and 45° (Fig.
5/6/7)
Release the angle clamping lever (13) and move
the cutting head (4) all the way to the right.
Secure the angle clamping lever (13).
Use an angular stop (a/b) to set the blade at 90°
in relation to the table.
If an adjustment is necessary, undo the locknut
(d) and turn the screw (c) so that the blade
makes an angle of 90° with the table.
Tighten the locknut (d).
Use the screw (c) to set the angle indicator (15)
to 0.
Use the same procedure to set the stop to 45°,
but instead move the cutting head to the left and
use the left screw (e).
6.2 Setting the stop face (Fig. 12)
Lower the cutting head and press in the locking
button (16). Make sure that the table shows a
miter angle of 0°.
Place an angular stop against the stop face and
the saw blade.
If the blade does not touch the angular stop,
undo the three screws (33).
Adjust the stop face so that it touches the angle
gage full-face. Retighten the screws.
7. Assembly and operation
Always place the workpiece against the stop face. A
twisted and bent workpiece that cannot be held flat
on the table or against the stop face may catch on
the blade and should not be used. Keep your hands
out of the sawing zone. The entire table area is out of
bounds for hands. It is marked with “No Hands”
signs.
7.1 Fitting the clamping device and extension
supports (Fig. 1/3/4)
Always use the clamping device (19) to secure
the workpiece in position. Insert the clamping
device in one of the mounts (30) provided and
fasten it in place with the clamping screw.
Insert the extension supports on the left and right
in the mounts (29) provided in the base plate
and tighten the clamping screw.
The standard end stop (18) can be used for
repeat cuts. In this case, slip the end stop onto
one of the extension supports and adjust with the
clamping screw.
7.2 Fitting the dust extraction device (Fig. 11/12)
Mount the dust extraction nozzle (28) in the outlet
opening under the cutting arm.
Mount the big end of the angle piece (35) on the
back of the crosscut and miter saw at the outlet
opening. The angle piece has to point to the side
or down.
On the angle piece you can either attach the dust
bag (24) or a suction hose for drawing off the saw
dust.
Mount the second angle piece on the upper dust
extraction socket (34) and plug on the suction
hose (26).
With With the Y-piece (27) you can join together
the upper and lower suction hose. Plug the hose
with adaptor (a) on the outlet of the Y-piece. You
can now connect a suitable dust extractor to the
adaptor.
7.3 Setting up the saw unit (Fig. 1/2)
To adjust the turntable (8), loosen the locking grip
(10) by approx. 2 turns, which frees the turntable
(8).
Turn the turntable (8) and scale pointer (11) to
the desired angular setting on the dial (12) and
lock into place with the locking grip (10).
To release the saw from its position at the bottom
(transport position), pull the retaining pin (16) out
of the motor mounting while pressing down lightly
on the machine head (4).
Swing the machine head (4) up until the retaining
hook latches into place.
