When the tightening screw (13) is loosened, you
can tilt the machine head (4) to the left by up to
45°.
Warning!
Never connect the plug to a power source before
you have completed all the installation work,
made all the necessary settings, and read and
understood all the safety and operating
instructions.
7.4 Crosscut 90° and turntable 0° (Fig. 8)
For cutting widths up to 170 mm it is possible to fix
the saw’s drag function with the thumb screw (14) in
rear position. If the cutting width exceeds 170 mm
you must ensure that the thumb screw (14) is
slackened and that the machine head (4) can be
moved.
Move the machine head (4) to its upper position.
Use the handle (2) to push back the machine
head (4) and fix it in this position if required
(dependent on the cutting width).
Place the piece of wood to be cut against the
stop rail (7) and on the turntable (8).
Lock the material with the clamping device (19)
on the base plate (9) to prevent the material from
moving during the cutting operation.
Push down the release lever (1) to release the
machine head (4).
Press the ON/OFF switch (3) to start the motor.
Use the handle (2) to apply steady and light
downward pressure to cut all the way through the
workpiece.
When the cutting operation is completed, move
the machine head back to its upper (home)
position and release the ON/OFF button (3).
Important! The integral resetting springs will
automatically lift the machine head. Do not simply
let go of the handle (2) after cutting, but allow the
machine head to rise slowly, applying slight
counterpressure as it does so.
7.5 Crosscut 90° and turntable 0°- 45° (Fig. 9)
The crosscut saw can be used to make right and left
angular cuts of 0°- 45° in relation to the stop rail.
Using the handle (2), set the turntable (8) to the
desired angle, i.e. the scale pointer (11) on the
turntable must coincide with the desired angular
setting (12) on the stationary base plate (9).
Retighten the locking grip (10) to secure the
turntable (8) in place.
Make the cut as described in section 7.4.
7.6 Miter cut 0°- 45° and turntable 0° (Fig. 10/12)
The crosscut saw can be used to make miter cuts of
0° - 45° in relation to the work face.
Move the machine head (4) to its upper position.
Fasten the turntable (8) in 0° position.
Undo the clamping lever (13) and use the handle
(2) to tilt the machine head (4) to the left until the
pointer (23) coincides with the required angle
value (15).
Retighten the clamping lever (13) and make the
cut as described in section 7.4.
7.7 Miter cut 0°- 45° and turntable 0°- 45° (Fig. 11)
The crosscut saw can be used to make miter cuts to
the left of 0°- 45° in relation to the work face and, at
the same time, 0° - 45° in relation to the stop rail
(double miter cut).
Move the machine head (4) to its upper position.
Release the turntable (8) by slackening the
locking grip (10).
Use the handle (2) to adjust the turntable (8) to
the angle required (in this connection see also
section 7.5).
Retighten the locking grip (10) in order to secure
the turntable in place.
Undo the locknut (13) and use the handle (2) to
tilt the machine head (4) to the left until it
coincides with the required angle value (in this
connection see also section 7.5).
Retighten the locknut (13). Cut as described
under section 7.4.
7.8 Changing the saw blade (Fig. 13)
Pull out the power plug.
Swing up the machine head (4).
Swing up the adjustable blade guard (6).
Press the saw shaft lock (17) with one hand while
holding the wrench (32) on the flange bolt (25)
with the other.
Firmly press on the saw shaft lock (17) and
slowly rotate the flange bolt (25) in clockwise
direction. The saw shaft lock engages after no
more than one rotation.
Now, using a little more force, slacken the flange
bolt (25) in clockwise direction.
Turn the flange bolt (25) until it is completely
removed.
Take the blade (5) off of the inner flange and pull
out.
Mount and fasten the new blade in reverse order.
Important! The cutting angle of the teeth (i.e. the
direction of rotation of the saw blade) must
coincide with the direction of the arrow on the
housing.
The blade flanges must be thoroughly cleaned
prior to mounting the blade.
Reattach the movable blade guard (6) in reverse
order.
Ensure that the saw shaft lock (17) is slackened.
