Note: Check the power tool for possible dam-
age.
Before further use of the machine, check that all
protective devices are fully functional. Any light-
ly damaged parts must be carefully checked to
ensure flawless operation of the tool. All parts
must be properly mounted and all conditions
fulfilled that ensure faultless operation.
Damaged protective devices and parts must be
immediately replaced by an authorised service
centre.

Stationary or Flexible Mounting

To ensure safe handling, the machine must
be mounted on a level and stable surface
(e. g., workbench) prior to using.

Mounting to a Working Surface

– Fasten the power tool with suitable screw
fasteners to the working surface. The holes 3
serve for this purpose. (see figure a1)
or
– Clamp the power tool with commercially
available screw clamps by the feet to the
working surface. (see figure a2)

Mounting to the GTA 3700 Worktable

(see figure b)
Read all safety warnings and instructions
included with the worktable. Failure of ob-
serving safety warnings and instructions can
lead to electrical shock, fire and/or cause se-
rious injuries.
Assemble the worktable properly before
mounting the power tool. Perfect assembly
is important in order to prevent the risk of
collapsing.
– Adjust the clearance between the holding-fix-
ture sets to 440 mm.
– Mount the power tool in the table saw work-
ing position. (see "Working Position",
page 67)
The relevant mounting holes for the GTM 12
are shown in the figure.

Flexible Mounting (not recommended!)

In exceptional cases, when it is not possible to
mount the machine onto a level and stable work
surface, it can be set up using the tilt protector.
The tilt protector 6 is used for this purpose.
Never remove the tilt protector. Without the
use of the tilt protector, the machine does
not stand safely and can tip over, especially
when sawing at maximum mitre/bevel an-
gles.

Dust/Chip Extraction

Dusts from materials such as lead-containing
coatings, some wood types, minerals and metal
can be harmful to one's health. Touching or
breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic reac-
tions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the
user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are
considered as carcinogenic, especially in con-
nection with wood-treatment additives (chro-
mate, wood preservative). Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Use dust extraction whenever possible.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working
place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class
respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country
for the materials to be worked.
The dust/chip extraction can be blocked by
dust, chips or workpiece fragments.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains
plug from the socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a com-
plete stop.
– Determine the cause of the blockage and cor-
rect it.

Integrated Dust Extraction

(see figure c)
For basic dust collection, use the dust bag 8
provided.
During sawing, the dust bag must never come in-
to contact with the movable machine parts.
