ADJUSTING (Fig. 4-5-6-7-8)

HAZARD: All the adjustment procedures
illustrated below must be performed when the
machine's engine is off.
3.1 ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING ANGLE-HEAD
ROTATION (Fig. 4)
This mitre-saw can cut both to the left and to the right.
The pre-set positions are: 15° - 22°30' - 30° - 45° and 50°.
To position the machine as above, loosen the handwheel
23, release the machine head by pushing the lever 24
downwards and rotate the rotary support by using the
handgrip 1.
The head will automatically stop each time the index 25 is
in alignment with the corresponding position indicated on
the graduated plate.
For all intermediate positions, once the the index is in
alignment with the position on the plate, block the rotating
bearing by means of the handwheel 23.
3.2 ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING ANGLE - HEAD
ANGLE (Fig. 5)
The machine head can be tilted to a maximum of 45° to the
left.
Release the knob 26 at the rear of the machine and tilt the
head until it comes into contact with the clamp at 45°
(calibrated upon inspection).
For all other intermediate positions, align index 27 on the
rear of the head with the corresponding position marked on
the graduated scale 28 of the swivel joint.
HAZARD:
During double angle cutting (rotation plus head
tilting) hold the work piece securely to the
machine using the right hand and guide the
lowering of the head with the left hand (Fig. 17).
3.3 ADJUSTMENT/INSTALLATION OF BAR CLAMP
(Fig. 6)
To cut work pieces of the same length, use the bar clamp
supplied in order to avoid repeating the same measuring
procedure more than once.
Screw the bar 29 into the hole in the base and block it with
the dowel 30: loosen the handwheel 31 and position the
clamp 32 at the appropriate distance from the blade; then
tighten the handwheel 31.
3.4 ADJUSTMENT HEIGHT OF UPPER WORK
SURFACE (Fi.g 7)
JUST FOR CIRCULAR SAW
HAZARD: When working on the upper surface,
it is absolutely necessary to install the lower
safety guard supplied.
To install the safety guard with the head uplifted, place it
on the angular bearings 33 of the base. Then lower the
head and block the body in this position by means of the
block pin 19.
To adjust the height of the upper work surface to obtain
desired cutting widths, follow the instructions below:
- loosen the two handwheels 34;
- move the bearing bracket 17 toward the blade;
- raise or lower the table using the relative knob until the
desired cutting height is reached;
- tighten the two handwheels 34;
3.5 ADJUSTMENT OF BEARING BRACKET (Fig.
8)
JUST FOR CIRCULAR SAW
Loosen the handwheels 36 and slide the bracket 17, aligning
the index 37 on the bearing with its corresponding position
on the graduated scale on the work surface.
This position corresponds to the actual distance of the
bearing bracket rest from the centre line of the blade.
3.6 WEDGE REGULATION
To ensure the dividing wedge is in the correct position,
keep it at a distance of between 3mm - 8mm from the
tooth of the blade. Should this not be the case, loosen the
screw which holds it attached to the arm and move it to the
aforementioned distance (Fig. 16).

USE

After having performed all the above procedures and
operations, you may begin cutting.
HAZARD: Always keep hands away from the
cutting area and do not try to approach it when
the machine is running.
4.1 USE AS A CUTTING-OFF MACHINE
(cutting on the lower work surface) (Fig. 9)
- Release the head, by unscrew the block pin 19.
- Raise the machine head as far as possible.
- Secure the workpiece firmly against the angular
bearings 33 of the base with your left hand, thus
ensuring absolute immobility during cutting.
- Put your right hand on the handgrip 1 and press the
button 9 in order to release the head.
- Actuate the motor by pressing first the main switch
release device 14 and then the main switch start
button 2 on the handgrip.
- Lower the head and gradually bring the blade into
contact with the workpiece.
- Complete cutting and raise the head to its original
position.
- Turn off the motor by release the main switch button
2.
