Clamping the Workpiece (see figure F)
To ensure optimum working safety, the work-
piece must always be firmly clamped.
Do not saw workpieces that are too small to
clamp.
– Press the workpiece firmly against the
fence 6.
– Insert the material clamp 14 provided into
one of the holes 27 intended for it.
– Loosen the wing bolt 33 and adapt the mate-
rial clamp to the workpiece. Tighten the wing
bolt again.
– Firmly clamp the workpiece by turning the
threaded rod 34 in clockwise direction.
Loosening the Workpiece
– To release the material clamp, turn the
threaded rod 34 in anticlockwise direction.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle
f
When adjusting the cutting angle, never ac-
tuate the On/Off switch 19. Danger of injury
if the machine should accidentally start.
f
Before sawing, always tighten the clamping
lever 25. Otherwise the saw blade could be-
come jammed in the workpiece.
Adjusting Horizontal Mitre Angles
(see figure G)
The horizontal mitre angle can be set in the
range from 46° (left side) to 46° (right side).
– Release clamping lever 25, if tightened.
This allows the saw table to move freely.
– Turn the saw table 11 left or right by handle
9 until the angle indicator 35 indicates the
desired mitre angle.
– Tighten clamping lever 25 again.
For quick and precise setting of often used mi-
tre angles, the saw table 11 engages at the de-
tents of the following standard angles:
–45°/ –30°/ –22.5°/ –15°/
0°/ 15°/ 22.5°/ 30°/ 45°
Adjusting Vertical Bevel Angles (see figure H)
The vertical bevel angle can be set in the range
from 0° to 45°.
– Loosen the clamping lever 23.
– Tilt the tool arm by the handle 1 until the an-
gle indicator 36 indicates the desired bevel
angle.
– Hold the tool arm in this position and retight-
en the clamping lever 23.
For quick and precise setting of the standard
angles 0° und 45°, end stops are provided on
the housing.
– Loosen the clamping lever 23.
– For this, tilt the tool arm by the handle 1 to
the stop toward the right (0°) or to the stop
toward the left (45°).
– Retighten the clamping lever 23 again.
Starting Operation
f
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage
of the power source must agree with the
voltage specified on the nameplate of the
machine. Power tools marked with 230 V
can also be operated with 220 V.
Switching On (see figure I)
– To start the machine, press the On/Off
switch 19 and keep it pressed.
Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 19
cannot be locked; it must remain pressed during
the entire operation.
The tool arm can only be guided downward
when pressing lever 3.
– For sawing, you must additionally press lever
3 in addition to actuating the On/Off switch.
Switching Off
– To switch off the machine, release the
On/Off switch 19.
