Bevel Cut; Compound Mitre Cut - GMC DB250SMS Bedienungsanleitung

Bevel cut

A bevel cut is made by
cutting across the grain of
the workpiece with the blade
angled to the fence and mitre
table. The mitre table is set
at the zero degree position
and the blade set at an angle
GB between 0º and 45º (Fig. u).
Use the slide action when
cutting wide workpieces.
1. Pull on the release knob (6) and lift the saw arm to its
full height.
2. Loosen the mitre lock (25).
3. Rotate the mitre table (21) until the pointer aligns with
zero on the mitre scale (22).
4. Retighten the mitre lock (25).
WARNING. Be sure to tighten the mitre lock before making
a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table moving
during the cut, causing serious personal injury.
5. Loosen the bevel lock (16) and pull out the 0º bevel
adjuster. Move the saw arm (5) to the left or right to the
desired bevel angle (between 0º and 45º). Tighten the
bevel lock (16).
6. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge
securely against the fence (19). If the board is warped,
place the convex side against the fence. If the concave
side is placed against the fence, the board could break
and jam the blade.
7. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite
end of the timber with the side bars (37), a roller stand or
a work surface that is level with the saw table.
8. Use the clamp assembly (10) to secure the workpiece
wherever possible.
9. It is possible to remove the clamp assembly (10) by
loosening the clamp assembly lock (11) and moving
it to the other side of the table. Make sure the clamp
assembly lock is tight before using the clamp.

10. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the
cutting operation to check that there are no problems.
11. Hold the operating handle (7) firmly and squeeze the
switch trigger (24). Allow the blade to reach maximum
speed.
12. Press the release latch (36) and slowly lower the blade
into and through the workpiece.
13. Release the switch trigger (24) and allow the saw
blade to stop rotating before raising the blade out of the
workpiece. Wait until the blade stops before removing
the workpiece.

Compound mitre cut

A compound mitre cut involves
using a mitre angle and a
bevel angle at the same
time (Fig. v). It is used in
making picture frames, to cut
mouldings, making boxes
with sloping sides and for roof
framing. Always make a test
cut on a piece of scrap wood before cutting into the good
material.
Use the slide action when cutting wide workpieces.
1. Pull on the release knob (6) and lift the saw arm to
its full height.
2. Loosen the mitre lock (25).
3. Rotate the mitre table (21) until the pointer aligns with the
desired angle on the mitre scale (22).
4. Retighten the mitre lock (25).
WARNING. Be sure to tighten the mitre lock before making
a cut. Failure to do so could result in the table moving
during the cut, causing serious personal injury.
5. Loosen the bevel lock (16) and pull out the 0º bevel
adjuster (18) and move the saw arm (5) to the left or
right to the desired bevel angle (between 0º and 45º).
Tighten the bevel lock (16).
