Adjusting the Angle of Cut (fi g. 4)
The tool can be used for mitre cuts up to 45°.
• Loosen the fence bolts (hh) to release the fence (h).
• Set the fence (h) to the required angle. The angle
can be read on the scale (ii).
• Tighten the fence bolts (hh) to lock the fence (h).
Checking and Adjusting the Mitre Scale (fi g. 1, 4)
• Loosen the fence bolts (hh) to release the fence
(h) (fi g. 4).
• Pull down the arm and lock it in this position
using the lock-down chain (t) (fi g. 1).
• Place a square (jj) against the fence (h) and the left
side of the cutting disc creating a perfect 90°
(fi g. 4). Check that the 0° marking on the scale (ii)
aligns with the marking on the table (kk).
• Tighten the fence bolts (hh) to lock the fence (h).
• Release the lock-down chain (t) and return the
arm to its upper rest position (fi g. 1).
Adjusting the Spark Defl ector (fi g. 1)
• Loosen the screw (s).

Mounting (fi g. 6, 7)
CAUTION: Tool must be supported on
stable, level, non-skid surface to prevent
unexpected movement when operating.
PROCEDURE FOR PERMANENT MOUNTING
• Drill two holes 8 mm (5/16") through the work
surface (fig. 6).
• Insert 1/4-20 screws down through the holes in
the base and through holes in mounting surface.
The approximate length of the screws should
be the thickness of the mounting surface plus
102 mm (4").
• Tighten both screws securely.
CRADLE MOUNTING
• Cut two boards approximately 508 x 50.8 x
101.6 mm (20" long x 2" high x 4") wide.
• Place chop saw at desired work location.
• Place boards tightly along side, and nail to work
surface (fig. 7).
Prior to Operation
• Install the appropriate cutting disc. Do not use
excessively worn discs. The maximum rotation
speed of the tool must not exceed that of the
cutting disc.

• Make sure the disc rotates in the direction of the
arrows on the accessory and the tool.
• Secure the workpiece.
• Always set the spark defl ector correctly.
