Setting the sawing angle

Danger!
Running saw band may cause serious severance injury!
The swivel-mounted saw bow may pose pinch point hazard!
• The machine may only be operated by one person.
• The sawing angle may only be adjusted when the machine motor is turned off.
• Before setting the sawing angle, the operator must ensure that the work area is
clear.
• The operator must ensure that the saw bow is placed in the rear start position
Mitre cuts
The BS 450 has a mitre range from 0 to 45 degrees. This allows the operator to make
mitre cuts to one side.
 If not already done, slide the saw bow in the rear position.
 Make sure that in the pivot area of the saw bow there is no person and no obstacles.
 Loosen the quick-tensioning lever on the saw-angle adjustment equipment.
 Carefully and slowly swivel the saw frame in the appropriate direction until the pointer shows
the desired angle value on the angle scale.
 Secure the set angle position of the saw frame by tightening the quick-tensioning lever.
 Depending on the set saw angle, a tension device that is holding the workpiece in place may
now be on the cutting line. If this is the case, reposition the tension device (see Chap. 7.5).
