Lift the saw out of the packaging and place it on your
work bench. (Positioning of the saw on the work bench
- see the next page under „POSITIONING / WORK STA-
TION“)
Installation of the dust bag
• Squeeze together the metal ring on the dust bag (12)
and attach it to the outlet opening in the motor area.
Assembling the work piece clamping device (fig. 1.1)
• Loosen the locking screw (17) and attach the work
piece clamping device (10) to the left or right of the
fixed saw bench.
• Afterwards, retighten the locking screws (17).
Assembling the work piece supports (fig. 1.1 – 1.2)
• Loosen the cross-head screw (14) and guide the work
piece support through the specified hole on the side of
the fixed saw bench.
• Make sure that the work piece support (15) is also
guided through the two plates (19) on the underneath.
• Afterwards, retighten the cross-head screw (14).
• Repeat this process on the other side.
Assembling the support stand (fig. 1.1 – 1.2)
• Loosen the cross-head screws (18) on the underneath
of the saw and guide the support stand (16) through

Settings
CROSS-CUTTING
ATTENTION: Before carrying out the following adjust-
ments, please check whether the motor of the machine
is switched off.
Pivoting the table plate (Fig. 2)
The mitre saw can be pivoted left and right with the rota-
ry table. Exact angle adjustment is possible on the basis
of the scale. The angle can be precisely and quickly ad-
justed from 0° to 45° with locking positions at 15°, 22.5°
and 30°.
To pivot the rotary table, loosen the set screw (21) and
rotate the unit using the handle (20) until the desired
angle is reached. Then secure it with the set screw (21).
Tilt of the saw unit (Fig. 3)
The saw unit can be tilted at an angle of up to 45°.
Loosen the handle (23) on the rear side of the machine
and tilt the unit to the desired angle position according to
the scale. The angle can be set on the basis of the scale
(24) using the pointer (25). Then the handle must be re-
tightened.
Working instructions
After you have carried out all the tasks described above,
you can begin working.
ATTENTION: Always keep your hands away from the
cutting zone and never attempt to reach in while cutting.
FIXING A WORKPIECE
Clamp the work piece on the work table with the workpi-
ece clamp (10 - Fig 1) in order to fix it in place.
Cross-cutting (Fig. 4)
• Loosen the locking knob (26).
• Lift the saw unit by the handle (2) until it locks in place
in the top position
• Press the workpiece evenly on the stop strips (27);
make sure that you hand remains outside the cutting
area of the saw blade.
• With your right hand on the handle (2), press the lo-
cking lever (3) so that the unit can also be pivoted
downward.
• The motor starts when the start button (1) is pressed.
• Slowly bring the saw blade down to the workpiece and
cut through it with moderate pressure.
• Pivot the unit back to the upper starting position into
it locks in place.
• Release the handle (2) so that the motor switches off.
Saw blade replacement (Fig. 5)
• Pull out the mains plug.
• Place the saw unit in „cross-cutting“ position
• Unlock the moving saw blade guard (6) by pressing
the lock (3 - Fig. 1); in the process, raise the saw bla-
de guard so that the saw blade is free.
• Actuate the spindle lock (22 - Fig. 3).
• Loosen the saw blade fastening screw (28) - (
Atten-
tion: left-handed thread).
• Remove the screw (28) and saw blade flange (29).
• Carefully remove the saw blade (risk of injury from the
saw blade teeth).
• Place a new saw blade on the inner saw blade flan-
ge. In the process, observe the rotational direction of
the saw blade.
