Rotating table
To make miter cuts, loosen the rotating
table lock screw (41) and turn the rotat-
ing table (40) to the desired position.
The turning range is 50° to the left and
60° to the right.
The rotating table en
gages at preset
stops and engages at the 0°, 15°, 22.5°,
30°, 45°, and 60° positions.
After selecting the desired angle,
TIGHTEN THE ROTATING TABLE
LOCK SCREW (41) before you start to
cut.
To prevent the miter angle from chang-
ing while cutting, the rotating table lock
screw must be securely tightened even if
you are using one of the preset stops
( 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30°, 45°, or 60°).
Push/pull action
The track arm permits the cutting of work
pieces having a larger cross section.
The track
can be used for all type of cuts
(standard cross cuts, miter cuts, bevel
cuts, compound miter cuts).
When making smaller cuts not requiring
the track am, lock the track arm in posi-
tion with the track arm lock screw (42).
Adjusting the cutting depth
The cutting depth can be adjusted at the
limit screw (43).
After adjusting the cutting
depth, make
sure that the limit screw is securely fas-
tened before you proceed with your
work.
If you want to make grooves, adjust the
cutting depth at the limit screw (43),
secure the limit screw adjustment,
loosen
the track arm lock screw and
make your grooves as desired.
Hinged fence
The hinged fence (44) permits the saw-
head assembly to tilt up to 48° to the
right for bevel cuts.
To provide firm support for the wor
k
piece (as much supporting area as pos-
sible), the hinged fence is to be used as
follows:
x Whenever possible, for example for
straight cuts, it should be up and be
firmly secured in place with the Phil-
lips h
ead screw (45).
x If the sawhead assembly is tilted
between 22.5° and 48° to the right,
the hinged fence might be in the
way. In this case, loosen the Phillips
head screw (45) and swing the
hinged fence to the rear.
x If the sawhead assembly is tilted
between 0° and 22.5° to the right
OR between 0° and 48° to the left,
the hinged fence does not interfere
with operation: loosen the Philli
ps
head screw (45), swing the hinged
fence up and then tighten the Phil-
lips head screw (45).
