Cutting with the mitre saw
There are three types of sawing possible. Cutting while the head is moving down or cutting while the lowered and locked head
moves horizontally. The third type is the plunge cutting, where the head is lowered to a pre-set height, held in this position and
then moved horizontally.
Move the head and secure it by tightening the guide lock screw (XIII). Adjust the angles of the head and make a simulated cut
without connecting the saw to the power supply. Check that the circular saw does not come into contact with the table, retaining
plate or any other part other than the workpiece.
The retaining plate has an adjustable element which can be moved if the movement of the circular saw is disturbed. The moving
element must be locked with a screw (XIV).
When cutting workpieces longer than the size of the work table, external fi xing elements, e.g. clamps, supports, vices, etc. should
be used to securely and safely fi x the workpiece to the mitre saw table.
When cutting with the lowered head moving along the guides, lower the head and secure it with the locking pin. Unlock the guides
by loosening the locking screw. Adjust the angles of the head and make a simulated cut without connecting the saw to the power
supply. Check that the circular saw does not come into contact with the table, retaining plate or any other part other than the
workpiece. Check that the movement on the guides is smooth. If necessary, change the position of the retaining plate section.
If the head is set at a certain height, loosen the fi xing screw of the head-lowering limiter, move it and lock it in this position by
tightening the screw (XV). Then adjust the lowering height of the head by screwing in the screw and lock it with the ring (XVI).
Adjust the angles of the head and make a simulated cut without connecting the saw to the power supply. Check that the circular
saw does not come into contact with the table, retaining plate or any other part other than the workpiece. Check that the movement
on the guides is smooth. If necessary, change the position of the retaining plate section.
Fix the workpiece to the table so that it always rests against the retaining plate. Use the supplied clamp to fi x the workpiece.
Fasten the clamp pin on one side of the table. Secure the pin by tightening the screw (XVII). Adjust the height of the clamp arm
and secure it by tightening the screw (XVIII). Place the workpiece on the table and fi x it by tightening the clamping disc (XIX).
The switch has a safety lock to prevent unintentional pressing. Before pressing the switch, move and hold the lock, and then press
the switch. There is no need to hold the lock while the switch is pressed. Releasing the switch blocks it again.
After pressing the switch, allow the circular saw to reach the rated speed and only then start cutting. The switch does not have a
lock to secure it in the "ON" position. It is forbidden to fi rst apply the saw to the workpiece and then start the tool. This can jam or
damage the saw or cause damage to the workpiece. This can lead to injuries.
When resuming cutting, let the circular saw reach its rated speed and then guide it into the cut.
Do not overload the disc or overheat the carbide disc blades when cutting. When cutting, the circular saw should be guided with
a smooth motion, avoiding excessive pressure. The pressure to be exerted on the cutting head should not be greater than that
which is suffi cient to cut the workpiece. Avoid hitting the workpiece with the circular saw.
If the saw is blocked in the workpiece, immediately release the pressure on the tool switch, disconnect it from the power source,
and then unjam the saw.
Inspect the saw for any damage or deformation which may have occurred at the time of jamming and replace the saw with a new
one which is free from damage. Also check the cause of the jam, for example, that there are no metal parts in the workpiece which
could cause the saw to jam. Before starting work, remove the cause of the jamming.
Once you have fi nished cutting, remove the spinning saw from the cut and only then release the pressure on the switch. Wait for
the circular saw to stop completely. Disconnect the saw from the power supply by removing the battery from the machine socket
and then remove the workpiece from the table.
Proceed with maintenance after fi nishing work.
MAINTENANCE AND OVERHAUL
CAUTION! Remove the battery from the machine's socket before performing adjustment, technical service or maintenance activ-
ities. Having fi nished working, check the power tool for damage by visually inspecting the exterior and the body and the handle,
the functioning of the electric switch, the vents for clogging, the motor brushes for sparking, the noise level of the bearings and
the drive transmission, and how the power tool starts and runs. During the warranty period, the user is not allowed to disassemble
the tool or replace any components or parts, as this will void the warranty rights. Any irregularities found during overhaul or the
operation signal the need for repair at a service centre. For this purpose, contact the manufacturer. Having fi nished your work,
clean the housing, the vents, all switches, all handles and guards with compressed air (at 0.3 MPa maximum), a brush or a dry
cloth. Do not use any chemicals or cleaners. Do not use sharp tools for cleaning. Remove the circular saw and clean the inside of
the guards, the fi xing of the circular saw, as well as the saw itself from dust and other impurities generated during operation. Clean
handles, knobs and other adjusting parts with a dry, clean cloth.
