ENGLISH

• Set your saw to the prescribed angles and make a few trial cuts.

• Practice fitting the cut pieces together.

• Example: To make a 4 sided box with 25° exterior angles (angle

“A”) (fig. S2), use the upper right arc. Find 25° on the arc scale.

Follow the horizontal intersecting line to either side to get the mitre

angle setting on the saw (23°).

Likewise follow the vertical intersecting line to the top or bottom to

get the bevel angle setting on the saw (40°). Always try cuts on a

few scrap pieces of wood to verify the settings on the saw.

Cutting Base Mouldings

The cutting of base moulding is performed at a 45° bevel angle.

• Always make a dry run without power before making any cuts.

• All cuts are made with the back of the moulding laying flat on the

saw.

positions at 31.62° mitre and 33.85° bevel. These settings are for

standard crown mouldings with 52° angles at the top and 38° angles

at the bottom.

adjustment knob (15) to allow for groove cutting.

• Flip the grooving stop (12) towards the front of the saw.

• Adjust the grooving depth adjustment knob (15) to set the depth of

the groove cut. It might be necessary to release the lock nut (66)

first.

• Place a piece of scrap material of approx. 5 cm between fence and

workpiece in order to perform a straight groove cut.

DUST EXTRACTION (FIG. A2 & A5)

This machine is provided with a dust extraction point (24) for connection

of a dust extraction kit (36) (available as an option).

WARNING! Whenever possible, connect a dust extraction

device designed in accordance with the relevant regulations

regarding dust emission.

Connect a dust collection device designed in accordance with the

relevant regulations. The air velocity of externally connected systems

shall be 20 m/s +/- 2 m/s. Velocity to be measured in the connection

tube at the point of connection, with the tool connected, but not

running.

CUTTING SMALL PIECES (FIG. J1)

The upper part of the left side of the fence (3) can be adjusted to

provide maximum support when cutting small pieces.

• Put the saw blade into vertical position.

• Loosen the plastic knob (29) at least 3 full turns.

• Adjust the fence as close to the blade as possible.

• Tighten the knob securely.

SUPPORT FOR LONG PIECES (FIG. A4)

• Always support long pieces.

• For best results, use the legstand (35) to extend the table width of

your saw (available from your dealer as an option). Support long

workpieces using any convenient means such as saw-horses or

similar devices to keep the ends from dropping.

TRANSPORTING (FIG. A6, B)

WARNING: Never use the guards to lift or transport the

saw.

In order to conveniently carry the tool, a carrying strap can be attached

to the base. The carrying strap (see fig. A6) is available as an option.

• To transport the saw, lower the head and depress the lock down

pin (14).

• Lock the rail lock knob with the saw head in the front position, lock

the mitre arm in the right mitre angle, slide the fence (3) completely

inward and lock the bevel lever (11) with the saw head in the

vertical position to make the tool as compact as possible.

• Always use the hand indentations (30) shown in fig. B to transport

the saw.
