POSITIONING/WORK STATION
Position the machine on a work bench or on a flat base so
that the machine is supported as stably as possible.
The equipment must be set up where it can stand secure, i.e.
it should be bolted to a workbench, a universal base frame
or similar. When working with the machine, ergonomic fac-
tors must be considered; the ideal height of the work table or
the base is reached when the base surface or the upper work
surface is 90 to 95 cm above the ground. The positioning of
the machine must provide for at least 80 cm of clearance in
all directions and in order to allow for cleaning and repair
work as well as necessary adjustments in observance of
safety conditions and with sufficient room to manoeuvre.
CAUTION: Position the machine in a zone which is suitable
in respect to the environmental conditions and lighting. Never
forget that the general environmental conditions play an
extremely important role in accident prevention.
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 overloading.

7. Assembly

WARNING! For you own safety, only insert the
mains plug in an outlet when all assembly steps
have been completed and you have read and un-
derstood the safety and operating instructions.
Lift the saw out of the packaging and place it on your work
bench. (Positioning of the saw on the work bench - see the
next page under „POSITIONING / WORK STATION")
Installation of the dust bag (fig. 2)
• Squeeze together the metal ring on the chip bag (12)
and attach it to the outlet opening in the motor area.
Assembling the work piece clamping device
(fig. 1.1)
• Loosen the locking screw (17) and attach the work piece
clamping device (10) to the left or right of the fixed saw
bench.
• Afterwards, retighten the locking screws (17).
Assembling the work piece supports (fig. 1.1 –
1.2)
• Loosen the cross-head screw (14) and guide the work
piece support through the specified hole on the side of
the fixed saw bench.
• Make sure that the work piece support (15) is also
guided through the two plates (19) on the underneath.
• Afterwards, retighten the cross-head screw (14).
• Repeat this process on the other side.
Assembling the support stand (fig. 1.1 – 1.2)
• Loosen the cross-head screws (18) on the underneath of
the saw and guide the support stand (16) through the
specified holes on the back of the saw.
• Afterwards, retighten the cross-head screws (18).

8. 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 ma-
terial types which are not listed, particularly food.
• Mitre saw without guard.
• Materials larger than the specified cutting data:
90°/90°
90°/45°
45°/90°
45°/45°

9. Settings

CROSS-CUTTING
ATTENTION: Before carrying out the following adjust-
ments, 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 machine 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) us-
ing the pointer (25). Then the handle must be re-tightened.

10. Working instructions

After you have carried out all the tasks described above, you
can begin working.
ATTENTION: Always keep your hands away from the cut-
ting 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 moveable stop rail
(27a) inwards.
