Safety / Operation
9 GB/IE
J Always ensure that all the clamps and stops are
firmly held in place.
J Never saw through more than one workpiece at
a time.
J Ensure that the saw blade has reached full
speed before starting your cut and avoid using
too much force. In that way you will prevent the
saw blade from being blocked.
L Operation
L Assembly
Do not connect the chop and mitre saw to the mains
before you have worked through the following assembly
instructions and completely assembled the device.
1. Slide the lateral support stirrups
Y
into the
openings provided for them on the left and right
of the saw table
T
until they meet the stop and
then fully tighten the clamp screws
U
.
2. Screw the saw table setting knob
O
into the
threaded hole provided.
3. Loosen the saw table setting knob
O
again.
Press the mitre angle stop
I
and turn the saw
table
T
using the saw table setting knob
O
into
the basic position (0° setting).
4. When the mitre angle stop
I
has engaged in
the basic position (0° setting), turn the saw table
setting knob
O
to tighten it again.
5. Lightly press the switch handle
W
downwards
and pull out the transport lock
o
. The saw motor
unit
Q
tips upwards.
6. Ensure that the machine is standing in a stable
position and check that the floor around the
machine is flat, clean and free of loose particles
such as sawdust chippings and sawing waste.
Using the four mounting holes
}
provided, fasten
the chop and mitre saw on to a firm, level surface.
7. If you have not fastened the machine tightly
down to a working surface, pull out the rear
support stirrup
e
as far as possible to provide
maximum support to the machine.

Checking and setting your saw
Warning! Always disconnect the mains supply
(by pulling the plug out of the mains socket) before
you change any settings or check the condition of
the machine.
1. Parallel saw blade
j Check that the saw blade is correctly installed; it
must be parallel to the sawing slot in the table. To
make any necessary settings proceed as follows;
j Bring the saw table
T
into the basic position
(0° setting). Release the transport restraint by
lightly pressing the saw motor unit
Q
down-
wards and pulling out the transport lock
o
. Un-
lock the machine by pushing the safety lever
E
to the right. Lower the saw motor unit
Q
and
check that the side face of the saw blade is parallel
with the left hand edge of the sawing slot in the
table. The blade and the edge must be absolutely
parallel to one another. If necessary you can
change the setting by loosening the three
mounting screws
A
directly behind the saw
blade (see Fig. A) using the supplied 6 mm Allen
key (d) and bring the saw motor unit
Q
into
parallel alignment. Then retighten the mounting
screws.
2. Stop plate
j It is particularly necessary to check the stop
plate
q
if it has been removed from the machine
and put back again. The stop plate
must be
perpendicular (at 90°) to the saw blade. This
setting can only be made after the saw blade
has been set as described above. To check the
stop plate
q
, we recommend that you use a set
square. Set one end of the set square against
the stop plate and the other end against the side
face of the saw blade. If necessary you can
change the setting as follows:
j Loosen the two screws on the rear face of the
stop plate
q
using the supplied 6 mm Allen key
(d) and bring the stop plate
q
into a perpendi-
cular (90°) alignment to the side face of the saw
blade. Tighten the screws again.
