WARNING!
Before changing the settings of the mitre saw, make sure it is unplugged from any power
source.
The following setting procedures have to be followed, to grant a safe, precise and efficient
operation.
Once all the settings are made, make sure that all the wrenches and tools are away from the
machine and that screws, bolts and protections are correctly fixed and active
Do not use the mitre saw before having carefully followed these procedures
While making these settings, make sure that all the protections are properly working and are in
good conditions
Broken or damaged parts have to be replaced by a qualified mechanic, before using the
machine.
FIXING THE MITRE SAW ONTO A BENCH
Before its use, the mitre saw has to be fixed onto a bench
Four holes are placed on the corners of the base, to screw it onto a bench or a working surface.
If you want to use lateral extensions, assemble them before fixing the machine on a bench.
If the machine is to be frequently moved, fix it on a plywood base (20mm thick or more) so that it will be
possible to fix it on a base with clamps.
WARNING : Make sure that the plywood base is flat, otherwise this could affect the cutting
precision.
Check and verify the following settings for a correct cutting precision
CHECK AND SETTING OF THE ANGLES
The different positions for angle cutting have been set at the origin by the factory.
Nevertheless, in order to grant a precise work, verify that all angles are correct before cutting.
SETTING THE CUT-END GUIDE FOR 90° CUT
1.
Make sure that the disk is perpendicular to the guide
2.
Block the mitre saw's head in the low position, close the lock-knob (see A - Fig.1). in the transport
position.
3.
Loosen the base rotation knob and position it at 0° . Re-tighten the base rotation knob.
4.
Loosen the head bevel knob located on the back of the machine and set the position the head at 0° .
Tighten again the head bevel knob.
5.
Position one of the sides of a square (not delivered) against the cut-end guide and the other side against
the disk of the mitre saw. Make sure that the square is correctly positioned along the disk, but not touching
the teethes. When the square is correctly positioned, its two sides must show a continuous contact with
the disk and the cut-end guide.
6.
If this is not the case you can set the cut-end guide as follows:
• Loosen the hexagonal screws and the two knobs fixing the guide extensions. Slide out the two
extensions and pull them off.
• Loosen the 2 screws (A) Fig. 9 of the two sides of the cut-end guide.
• Position the square against the disk and move the cut-end guide until it shows a continuous contact
with the other side of the square.
• Tighten the 2 screws (A) and reassemble the cut-end guide extensions.
