5. If adjustment is required, loosen the screws
position should now also be accurate. If this is not the case, the blade is not perpendicular
to the rotating table (see below).
Checking and Adjusting the Blade to the Table (Fig. I1, I2)
1. Loosen the bevel clamp knob
(Fig. I1).
22
2. Press the saw head to the right to ensure it is fully vertical and tighten the bevel
clamp handle.
3. Pull down the head until the blade just enters the saw kerf.
4. Place a set square

on the table and up against the blade
be 90°.
WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with the square.
5. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
a. Loosen the bevel clamp knob
22
(Fig. I1) and turn the vertical position adjustment
stop screw
71
in or out until the blade is at 90° to the table as measured with the
square
66
(Fig. I2).
Checking and Adjusting the Mitre Angle (Fig. A1, A2, H)
The straight cross-cut and 45° mitre positions are pre-set.
1. Pull up the rotating table location plunger
turn (Fig. A1).
2. Loosen the rotating table clamp
3
. The handle allows a ratchet-type action when full
rotation of the handle is not possible.
3. Grip the control handle
(Fig. A2), compress the guard release lever
14
saw about halfway (Fig. A1).
4. Turn the sawhead with its rotating table to the required position.
5. Tighten the rotating table clamp

6. Using the red marks
, the mitre saw table
68
between 0° and 45° (Fig. H).
7. Proceed as for pre-set positions. The rotating table location plunger cannot be used for
intermediate angles.
WARNING: Always make a trial cut in a piece of waste wood, to check for accuracy.
Adjusting the Fence (Fig. J1, J2)
The moveable part of the left side of the fence can be adjusted to provide maximum support
of the workpiece near the blade, while allowing the saw to bevel to a full 45° left. The sliding
distance is limited by stops in both directions. To adjust the fence
1. Lift the lever
72
to release the fence
7
2. Slide the fence to the left.
3. Make a dry run with the saw switched off and check for clearance. Adjust the fence to
be as close to the blade as practical to provide maximum workpiece support, without
interfering with the up and down movement of the arm.
4. Push the lever
72
down to secure the fence in place.
Checking and Adjusting the Bevel Angle (Fig. J1, K1, K2)
1. Slide the side fence to the left as far as it will go (Fig. J1).
2. Loosen the bevel clamp handle
22
and move the saw head to the left. This is the 45°
bevel position.
3. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
a. Turn the stopscrew
in or out as necessary until the pointer

1. Put the blade into 0° cross-cut position with the rotating table location plunger
correctly located and the rotating table clamp
2. Slacken the riving knife clamp bolt

3. Take the riving knife
from its storage position against the saw head (Fig. A2).

4. Depress the guard release lever
13
to release the blade guard
guard as far as possible (Fig. A1).
5. Slide the riving knife bracket
76
fully into the mounting slot
clamp bolt.
6. Gently release the lower guard until it is held in place behind the edge protruding from
the inside of the riving knife.
7. Remove the under-table guard.
8. Pull down the saw head and swing the height adjuster
engages on the pin provided in the base (Fig. E2).
9. Turn the wheel
55
of the adjuster to make the blade and riving knife protrude from the
bench saw table
24
(Fig. A3) to provide maximum cutting depth in bench saw mode.
WARNING: The blade should not foul the lower blade guard.
10. Pull the table release lever

to the left, lift the front edge of the table and flip it back
through 180° until the teeth of the table-locking device

Position of the Riving Knife (Fig. M)
Fit the riving knife
16
as described above. Once fitted, the riving knife does not require
further adjustment.
Fitting the Upper Blade Guard (Fig. N)
The upper blade guard
25
is designed to be quickly and easily attached, via a spring-loaded
plunger to the hole in the riving knife
for bench saw mode.
Secure the upper blade guard
plunger in the guard to engage.
WARNING: Never use your saw in bench saw mode without the upper guard
correctly fitted.
Mounting and Adjusting the Parallel Fence (Fig. O)
The dual height parallel fence
fence can be mounted on either side of the blade.
To mount the fence into the appropriate position, proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the knob
77
.
2. Slide the bracket on from the left or the right. The clamping plate
front edge of the table.
3. Tighten the knob
77
.
4. Check that the fence is parallel to the blade.
5. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
a. Adjust the fence so that it is parallel to the blade by checking the distance between the
blade and the fence at the front and rear of the blade. To do so, turn the adjustment
screw in the fence support in or out as necessary.
The default set-up of the fence is to the right-hand side of the blade.
To prepare the fence for use to the left-hand side of the blade, proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the knob
77
.
2. Pull out the bracket
79
and replace it in the other end.
3. Fit the fence to the table.
4. Tighten the knob

WARNING: Use the 11 mm profile for ripping low workpieces to allow access between the
blade and the fence for the push stick
WARNING: The rear end of the fence should be level with the front of the riving knife.
Changing from Bench saw to Mitre Saw Mode (Fig. A3, D, E2, L1)
1. Remove the parallel fence
2. Turn the wheel
55
of the height adjuster
saw mode (Fig. E2).
3. Proceed as described in the section Turning the Sawhead and Table Over.
4. Slacken the riving knife clamp bolt
blade guard

(Fig. L1).
5. Lower the blade guard.
6. Place the riving knife in its storage position against the saw head.
7. Replace the under-table guard
Prior to Operation
•
Install the appropriate saw blade. Do not use excessively worn blades. The maximum rotation
speed of the tool must not exceed that of the saw blade.
•
Do not attempt to cut excessively small pieces.
•
Allow the blade to cut freely. Do not force.
•
Allow the motor to reach full speed before cutting.
•
Make sure all locking knobs and clamp handles are tight.
OPERATION
Instructions for Use
WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and
disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories.
WARNING:
•
The attention of UK users is drawn to the "woodworking machines regulations 1974"
and any subsequent amendments.
•
Ensure the material to be sawn is firmly secured in place.
•
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool and do not exert side pressure on the
56
saw blade.
•
Avoid overloading.
Ensure the machine is placed to satisfy your ergonomic conditions in terms of table height
and stability. The machine site shall be chosen so that the operator has a good overview and
enough free surrounding space around the machine that allows handling of the workpiece
without any restrictions.
To reduce effects of vibration make sure the environment temperature is not too cold,
machine and accessory is well maintained and the workpiece size is suitable for this machine.
