INSTALLATION OF THE TOOL
The tool is provided almost completely assembled, but before work may commence, it is required to install the screw which locks
the rotation of the table and possibly the supports and clamps of the table, depending on the work to be done.
The locking screw must be inserted in the hole in the working table arm (II), but it must not be tightened, since it will prevent any
possibility of rotation of the table.
The supports make it easier to place on the table long elements whose length exceeds the size of the working table. It is required
to install them in the holes at both sides of the table. In order to do so, loosen the fixing screw, insert the support into the holes and
tighten the screw, so that the support does not fall out during work (III).
Attention! It is prohibited to carry the mitre saw, holding it only by the supports.
The clamp of the table permits to press the element to be processed to the surface of the working table. It is required to loosen the
locking screw and insert the clamp arm into the hole of the working table. Then tighten the locking screw fast and safe (IV).
In case of elements whose length exceeds significantly the size of the working table, it is required to use the external fixing ele-
ments, e.g. clamps, supports, anvils, etc., in order to fix the material to be processed on the table of the mitre saw fast and safe.
PREPARATION FOR WORK
Actions to be carried out before work may commence
The machine must be fixed in the place of work, to the working table, a stand or a similar support. All the guards and safety ele-
ments must be properly fixed before the machine is turned on. Make sure the circular saw may rotate freely. During work with
wooden materials, it is required to check it for foreign bodies, such as nails or screws, etc. Before the machine is turned on, make
sure all the mobile parts may move smoothly within the whole range, and the circular saw is properly fixed. Before the plug of
the cable is connected to the mains, make sure the parameters of the mains correspond to those indicated in the rating plate of
the machine.
The mitre saw must be placed on an even and stable surface, for example on the working table. The assembly height must be
selected depending on the height of the operator, so that full operation is possible without overreaching, and ensuring a stable
and safe position of the operator.
The base of the working table has holes which permit to screw it to the floor. It is required to use for this purpose screws and, if
necessary, nuts.
The working table has a shifting containment plate, which once the perpendicular cutting angle has been modified may block the
movement of the cutting head. In such cases it is required to rotate the locking lever of the containment plate and move it to such
position when it is no obstacle (V).
Installation and replacement of the circular saw
Attention! Before installation or replacement of the circular saw may start, it is required to disconnect the mitre saw from the mains,
removing the plug from the socket of the mains.
During replacement of the circular saw, it is required to use protective gloves.
Lift the head of the circular saw, press the locking lever (VI) and move away the guard of the circular saw to the end. Lower the
lock, which will permit to lock the guard of the circular saw in that position. Loosen the screw (VII) and move the guard of the
circular saw away, so as to obtain free access to the fixing screw of the circular saw. Press the spindle lock, and then turn the
key clockwise until the rotation of the spindle is locked. Then loosen the disc fixing screw (VIII). Remove the fixing plate and the
circular saw.
Before installation of a new circular saw, it is required to clean the fixture from dust. The circular saw must be installed in such a
manner that the direction of its rotation complies to the direction of rotation indicated with the arrow on the guard. Then install the
fixing plate and holding the lock of the spindle, fasten the fixing screw of the circular saw. The guards must be installed in a reverse
sequence as compared to the dismantling order.
Once installation has been finished, make sure the circular saw rotates freely in the perpendicular position and at 45 grades.
Attention! Once the angle of the table has been modified, make sure the circular saw or the cutting head do not hit any obstacles
during work. It is required to check, without turning the tool on, whether the whole working range of the mitre saw may be used. If
necessary, it is required to realise adequate adjustments to remove obstacles.
WORK WITH THE MITER SAW
Setting of the working table (IX)
The table may rotate within the range of +/- 45 grades. In order to rotate the table, it is required to loosen the locking screw, press
and hold the locking lever and turn the table to the required the angle. In order to facilitate settings of the angle of the table, it is
possible to use the scale at the base of the table. The locking mechanism permits to lock the movement of the table at several,
most frequently used cutting angles. In order to do so, it is required to release the locking lever, so that it is placed in the notch at
