4. Firmly tighten the threaded rod of the workpie-
ce clamp (21) to fix the workpiece in place. To
loosen, simply untighten the threaded rod of
the workpiece clamp (21).
The knob for workpiece clamp (44) can be used
to more quickly adjust the height of the workpiece
clamp (21). After adjusting the height, always firmly
tighten the threaded rod of the workpiece clamp (21)
to fix the workpiece in place.
Adjusting the fence (fig. H)
Always adjust the fence to the specific type
of cut.
When sawing mitre and/or bevel angles, you have
to move the adjustable fence (7) depending on
the cutting direction. This way, the workpiece is
always properly supported by the fence under each
condition. To do so:
1. Loosen the locking bolt for adjustable fence (35);
2. Adjust the fence according to the desired cut. For
mitre or straight cuts the fence has to be moved
inwards towards the blade (max 8 mm) without
touching it. For bevel cuts, the fence has to be
moved outwards away from the blade (max 8
mm) without touching it;
3. Tighten the locking bolt for adjustable fence (35);
4. To ensure the blade won't get in touch with the
adjustable fence (35), it is advised to make a
test run of the movement of the blade, without
turning the machine on.
Adjusting the mitre angle (fig. A)
The mitre angle can be adjusted between 45° left side
and 45° right side. For quick and precise setting of
commonly used mitre angles, presets are provided on
the saw table on 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45° angles.
Adjusting the mitre angle to a preset:
1. Loosen the knob for mitre adjustment (14);
2. Pull the lever for mitre adjustment (15) and
rotate the table (11) left or right to the desired
preset. The angle can be read on the scale for
mitre angle (16) using the indicator for mitre
angle (17).
3. Release the lever. The lever must be felt to
engage in the detent of the preset.
4. Tighten the knob for mitre adjustment (14).

Adjusting the mitre angle to any required angle:
1. Loosen the knob for mitre adjustment (14);
2. Pull the lever for mitre adjustment (15) and rotate
the table (11) left or right to the desired position.
The angle can be read on the scale for mitre an-
gle (16) using the indicator for mitre angle (17).
3. Release the lever and tighten the knob for mitre
adjustment (14).
Adjusting the bevel angle (fig. A, B)
The bevel angle can be set between 0° and +45° to
the left side. To do so:
1. Loosen the adjusting knob for bevel adjustment
(22);
2. Tilt the saw by using the handle (2) until the indi-
cator (19) reads the desired position on the scale
for bevel angle (20);
3. Tighten the adjusting knob for bevel adjustment
(22).
Switching the machine on/off (Fig. A)
• To start the machine, press and hold the lock-off
button (1) and press the on/off switch (3).
• To stop the machine, release the on/off switch (3).
Making a cross cut (fig. I, J)
Follow these steps to cut perpendicular to the grain
of the wood:
1. Adjust the mitre angle to and the bevel angle to 0°;
2. Move the adjustable fence to the inner position,
towards the blade. The maximum distance
between the adjustable fence (35) and the saw
blade (6) is 8mm, as shown on figure J. Make
sure the fence does not touch the blade.
3. Firmly clamp the workpiece;
4. Turn on the machine. Make sure that the saw
blade has reached full speed;
5. Now bring the handle slowly downwards so that
the saw blade cuts through the piece of work
and passes through the slot in the table. Do not
put undue pressure on the saw, let the machine
do the work;
6. Bring the handle gently up again and switch it
off by letting go of the switch.
Making a mitre cut (fig. J, K)
Follow these steps to make an angled cut to the
face of the wood:
1. Adjust the mitre angle to the desired position
and the bevel angle to 0°;
2. Move the adjustable fence to the inner position,
towards the blade. The maximum distance
