Unpacking

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely

that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing.

If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the

parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified.

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
1. Remove all loose parts from the carton.
2. Remove the packing materials from around the saw.
3. Using the operating handle (7) carefully lift the saw from

the carton and place it on a level work surface.

4. The saw has been shipped with the saw arm locked in the

down position. To release the saw arm, push down on the

top of the saw arm, pull on the release knob (6) (fig. A),

rotate it 45° and let go (fig. B), slowly raise the saw arm.

WARNING.

Do not lift the saw whilst holding on to the

guards. Use the operating handle (7).

Transportation

Lift the mitre saw only when the

saw arm is locked in the down

position, the saw is switched off

and the plug is removed from the

power point.
Only lift the saw by the operating

handle (7) or outer castings

(fig. C). Do not lift the saw

using the guards.

Bench mounting

The saw base has 5 holes in the

base to facilitate bench mounting

(fig. D).
1. Mount the saw to a level,

horizontal bench or work table

using bolts (not supplied) and

fix the saw to the bench using

5 bolts.

2. If desired, you can mount the saw to a piece of 13mm or

thicker plywood which can then be clamped to your work

support or moved to other job sites and re-clamped.

CAUTION.

Make sure that the mounting surface is not

warped as an uneven surface can cause binding and

inaccurate sawing.

Release knob

The release knob (6) is provided

for holding the cutting head down

whilst transporting or storing the

mitre saw (fig. E). The saw must

never be used with the release

knob locking the head down.

Slide lock

When tightened, the slide lock

(22) prevents the saw head from

sliding. Tighten the slide lock

during transportation (fig. F).

Mitre table locks

The mitre table locks (18) are

used to lock the table at the

desired mitre angle (fig. G).
The mitre saw cuts from

0° to 45° both left and right.

To adjust the mitre angle loosen

the mitre table locks and rotate
