CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
Make sure that the socket is in a good condition. We
would like to remind you that the power supply must
be connected to a magnetic-thermal circuit breaker
which protects all lines from short-circuits and over-
loading.
Area of application
Intended application possibilities
The machine cuts:
• Wood and materials similar to wood
• Plastic
Unintended application possibilities
The machine is not suitable for:
• Ferritic materials, steel and cast iron, as well as
other material types which are not listed, particu-
larly food.
• Mitre saw without guard.
• Materials larger than the specified cutting data:
90°/90°
90°/45°
45°/90°
45°/45°
Settings
CROSS-CUTTING
ATTENTION: Before carrying out the following
adjustments, please check whether the motor of the
machine is switched off.
Pivoting the table plate (Fig. 2)
The mitre saw can be pivoted left and right with the
rotary table. Exact angle adjustment is possible on
the basis of the scale. The angle can be precisely and
quickly adjusted from 0° to 45° with locking positions
at 15°, 22.5° and 30°.
To pivot the rotary table, loosen the set screw (21)
and rotate the unit using the handle (20) until the
desired angle is reached. Then secure it with the set
screw (21).
Tilt of the saw unit (Fig. 3)
The saw unit can be tilted at an angle of up to 45°.
Loosen the handle (23) on the rear side of the ma-
chine and tilt the unit to the desired angle position
according to the scale. The angle can be set on the
basis of the scale (24) using the pointer (25). Then
the handle must be re-tightened.
Working instructions
After you have carried out all the tasks described
above, you can begin working.

ATTENTION: Always keep your hands away from
the cutting zone and never attempt to reach in while
cutting.
FIXING A WORKPIECE
Clamp the work piece on the work table with the
workpiece clamp (10 - Fig 1) in order to fix it in place.
Cross-cutting (Fig. 1, 1.3, 4)
Attention! For 90° mitre cuts, the moveable stop
rail (27a) must be fixed in the inner position.
• Open the set screw (27b) on the moveable stop
rail (27a) with an Allen key and push the move-
able stop rail (27a) inwards.
• The moveable stop rail (27a) must be locked in a
position far enough from the inner position that
the distance between the stop rail (27a) and the
saw blade (5) is no more than 8 mm.
• Before making the cut, check that no collision
could occur between the stop rail (27a) and the
saw blade (5).
• Secure the locking lever (27b) again.
• Loosen the locking knob (26).
• Lift the saw unit by the handle (2) until it locks in
place in the top position.
• Lock the material with the clamping device (10)
on the fixed saw table to prevent the material
from moving during the cutting operation.
• Press the workpiece evenly on the stop strips
(27); make sure that you hand remains outside
the cutting area of the saw blade.
• With your right hand on the handle (2), press the
locking lever (3) so that the unit can also be pivoted
downward.
• The motor starts when the start button (1) is
pressed.
• Slowly bring the saw blade down to the work-
piece and cut through it with moderate pressure.
• When the cutting operation is completed, move
the machine head back to its upper (home) posi-
tion and release the ON/OFF button (1).
Attention! The machine executes an upward stroke
automatically due to the return spring, i.e. do not
release the handle (2) after completing the cut;
instead allow the machine head to move upwards
slowly whilst applying light counter pressure.
Mitre cut 0°- 45° (Fig. 1, 1.3, 3)
The crosscut saw can be used to make mitre cuts
of 0° - 45° in relation to the work face.
Important! To make miter cuts (inclined saw
head), the adjustable stop rail (27a) must be fixed
at the outer position.
• Open the set screw (27b) for the adjustable stop
rail (27a) with an Allen key and push the adjust-
able stop rail outwards.
