CAUTION! Make sure the saw is unplugged from the power source before making any adjustment.
To ensure the safe, accurate and efficient operation of the saw, the following adjustments procedures must all be complet-
ed.
When all adjustments have been made, make sure all of the keys and tools are removed from the machine, and that all
screws, bolts and other fasteners are properly tightened.
Do not use the saw until you have followed these procedures.
Check that all external parts are working properly and are in good condition while making these adjustments.
Any and all damaged or broken parts must be replaced by a qualified technician before using the saw.
Check the following settings to be sure to get an accurate cut.
1. CHECKING AND SETTING ANGLES IN RELATION TO THE BLADE
The different angle settings for mitre cuts were adjusted when the machine was manufactured. However, to ensure accurate
work, check the precision of the angles before using your mitre saw.
ADJUSTING THE REAR SUPPORT GUIDE FOR 90° MITRE CUT:
Make sure the blade is perpendicular to the guide.
1. Lock the saw head in the down position.
2. Loosen the table rotation handle and set it to 0°. Tighten the table rotation handle.
3. Loosen the bevel locking handle of the saw head at the rear of the machine and set the head at 0°.
Then tighten the bevel locking handle of the head saw.
4. Place one of the ends of a square (A) Fig.7 (not included) against the guide (B) and the other against the saw blade.
Make sure the square is properly positioned along the
blade without coming into contact with the teeth. When the square is
correctly positioned, the two ends of the latter
must be fully in contact with the saw blade and
the guide.
5. If the blade is not in contact with the square, adjust the
guide as follows:
• Slide the two extensions of the guide outwards
as described in the preceding paragraph.
• Loosen the guide's 4 adjusting bolts (C) Fig.7.
• Place the square against the saw blade. Move the
guide until it is fully in contact with the extremity
of the square.
• Tighten the adjustment bolts of the guide (C).
ADJUSTING THE SAW TABLE IN RELATION TO THE BLADE:
Make sure the blade is perpendicular to the saw table.
1. Lock the saw head in the down position.
2. Loosen the table rotation handle and set it to 0°.
Tighten the table rotation handle.
3. Loosen the bevel locking handle of the saw head
at the rear of the machine and set the head to 0°.
Then tighten the bevel locking handle
of the saw head.
4. While lowering the saw head, place one end
of a square (A) Fig.8 (not included) against the saw table and
the other end against the blade. Make sure that the two
sides of the square are in contact with the blade without touching its
teeth. When the square is correctly positioned,
both ends of it are fully
in contact with the saw blade as well as the table
the mitre saw. To do this, turn the saw blade by hand
