- The distance between the teeth of the
saw blade and the keel must never be
greater than 5 mm.
- Use only saw blades whose body is
thinner than the thickness of the keel
and at the same time whose teeth are
wider than this thickness.
6.5 ADJUSTING THE MAXIMUM
RAISED POSITION
To adjust the maximum raised position turn screw
Y (Fig. 7) remembering that the machine locks into
resting position.
7. APPLICATIONS OF MITERING, INTENDED
CONDITIONS OF USE
This machine enables you to cut pieces of wood, plastic
and aluminium angles efficiently and precisely.
The rule on the machine is grooved which allows you
to quickly position a wood support to prevent any
splintering of the material being cut (Fig. 22). Use of
the knobs is strongly recommended when cutting fragile
or thin materials.
It is essential to use clamps (see section
10) for cutting aluminium angles, plastic
or long pieces (Fig. 21).
Do not start any cut until the blade has reached its full
speed of rotation.
7.1 CUTTING AT 0° x 0°
Proceed as shown in (Fig. 4)
7.2 CUTTING AT 0° x 45°
Release handle D (Fig. 5), lower the head to the 45° stop
or any other intermediate angle as required, and tighten
handle D in the selected position (Fig. 6).
7.3 CUTTING AT 45° x 0°
Press down lever E2 (Fig. 17) and turn the plate towards
the left or right until the index marks 45º or any of the
standard positions (15º, 22º30', 30º, 45º).
Should you wish to make a cut that does not match
any of the plate's standard positions, push down lever
E2 (Fig. 17) and then push it towards trigger E3 (Fig.
18). This will unlock the plate, enabling you to regulate
the exact angle you require. Then lock the plate using
knobs K (Fig. 5).
7.4 CUTTING AT 45° x 45°
Press down lever E2 (Fig. 17) and turn the plate towards
the left until it locks into place at 45º. Loosen handle D
and lower the head to the stop at 45º or the intermediate
angle you wish. Lock it in place once again (Fig. 5).
The machine also enables you to tilt the head to any
position on the plate (only by turning it to the left).
Ensure that the moving arm is well secured
in position when mitering.
7.5 SPECIAL CUTS 200 x 45 mm
In the 0°x0° position this machine can make cuts up to
200 x 45 mm. For these cuts a 36 mm high extension
must be placed on the lower table and then the cut can
be made as normal. This is possible due to the retractable
saw protector R (Fig. 14) which retracts as the cut is made.
7.6 MULTIPLE CUTS
To make multiple cuts the length stop A1 must be insta-
lled and regulated to the required measurement (Fig. 3)
8. CUTS ON THE UPPER TABLE,
INTENDED CONDITIONS OF USE
(only with models TM33L)
On the upper table only plastics and wood
can be cut, never aluminium or angles.
To use the machine in this cutting mode the lower cover
N (Fig. 11) should be positioned on the machine which
prevents any accidental contact of the saw disc under
the table. Fit the right-hand side of the fairing onto
the machine first, followed by the left-hand side. Once
both parts are fitted on, proceed to join them using
closure clamps D1 (Fig. 11). Then lock the machine in its
transporting position using catch B (Fig. 6), checking that
the cover is perfectly in place and fixed. Release knob A
and lower the handle (Fig. 8). Release knob L, withdraw
the upper aluminium angle which covers the blade
protector and use it as a lateral cutting guide, locking
it again at the required distance from the saw (Fig. 10),
this protector has a side slot that includes two nuts E4
(Fig. 10) designed to lock the wooden fillet that extends
up to the vertical axis of the centre of the saw blade.
Placing this wooden fillet (Fig. 20) is necessary when
making short cuts (dowels or stocks). This is because in
this type of cutting, when the cut piece is ejected from
the centre of the leaf, if it lacks space in coming out, the
turning of the blade, which could cause the accidental
expulsion of the part, will retain it.
The exit position of the saw with respect to the table is
regulated by releasing knobs M (Fig. 9) and placing the
