aligning the index on the bearing with its corresponding
position on the graduated scale on the work surface. This
position corresponds to the actual distance from the bearing
bracket to the blade.
ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING ANGLES (Fig. 9 –
10)
CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING ANGLES:
If you have to carry out any adjustment, follow the instructions
below:
90° horizontal and vertical
•
To obtain an angle of 90° between the fence and the
blade loosen the bolts (B1-B2) located on the fence 18
by using an Allen wrench; adjust the angle by positioning
a 90° square between the fence ad the blade 7; then
tighten the nuts (B1-B2).
•
To obtain an angle of 90° between the blade and the
bench, loosen the nut and adjust the screw (G1) located
on the joint by using an Allen wrench; adjust the angle by
positioning a 90° square between the rotating support 5
and the blade 7; then tighten the nut.
45° horizontal and inclined
•
To obtain an angle of 45° between the fence and the
blade loosen the bolts (B3-B4) located on the fence 18
by using an Allen wrench; adjust the angle by positioning
a 45° square between the fence ad the blade 7; then
tighten the nuts.
•
To obtain an angle of 45° between the blade and the
bench, loosen the nut and adjust the screw (G2) located
on the joint by using an Allen wrench; adjust the angle by
positioning a 45° square between the rotating support 5
and the blade 7; then tighten the nut.
WARNING:
After carrying out all the adjustments, check
you have obtained the desired result, Dopo aver
eff ettuato le varie regolazioni, verifi cate in pratica
con le rispettive squadre, se il risultato ottenuto è
quello desiderato.
FIXING THE MITRE SAW TO A BEARING SURFACE
(Fig. 11)
Place the machine on a bench or on a base / trestle which is
plane enough, in order that the machine is stable enough.
In order to work while taking into account ergonomic criteria,
bench's or base's height must allow you to place the base
plane or the upper workbench between 90 ad 95 cm from
the fl oor (Fig. 11).
It is recommended to place the machine in the working area
in order that the surrounding area of the machine is 80 cm
at least, in order to carry out any cleaning, maintenance and
necessary adjustments in the safer possible conditions and
with a suffi cient swinging room. Fix the machine to the bench
by using the four holes located on the base.
Before use, the mitre saw must be fi rmly fi xed to a plane
surface.
1.
At the base's ends there are four holes to fi x it to a plane
or to a bearing surface.
2.
If the mitre saw must be often moved, install it on a
plywood base (at least 20 mm wide) that you can thus
fi x with a C clamp to any bearing surface.

TRANSPORTATION OF THE MITRE SAW
1.
During the transportation of the mitre saw, ensure that
the cutting arm is lowered.
2.
The locking pin 12 of the workbench (Fig. 2), the
inclination locking handwheel 21 (Fig. 4) and the
extension 20 (Fig. 2) locking screw must all be correctly
blocked.
USE
WARNING!
Always keep hands away from the cutting area
and do not try to approach it when the machine
is running. Before any cutting operation, check
that all safety guards are sound and correctly
positioned.
WARNING
THE MACHINE IS FITTED WITH A MAINS
SWITCH TO BE ACTIVATED BEFORE ANY WORK
IS PERFORMED. ONCE WORK HAS BEEN
COMPLETED, TURN OFF THE MAINS SWITCH.
USE AS A CUTTING-OFF MACHINE (Fig. 2-3)
Preparing the machine in mitre saw mode
Remove and set aside in a safe place the lower guards
23 (Fig. 13).
-
Raise the upper table as far as possible.
-
Release the head with the block pin 16.
-
Raise the machine head as far as possible.
-
Secure the workpiece fi rmly against the angular bearings
18 of the base with your left hand, thus ensuring absolute
immobility during cutting.
-
Put your right hand on the handgrip 1 and press the
button 9 in order to release the head.
-
Actuate the motor with the main switch start button 2 on
the handgrip.
-
Lower the head and gradually bring the blade into contact
with the workpiece.
-
Complete cutting and raise the head to its original
position.
-
Turn off the motor by releasing the main switch button
2.
-
Replace the lower guards. (Fig.15).
WARNING!
If cutting with double inclination (rotation and
inclination of the head) keep the workpiece fi rmly
against the machine with your right hand and lower
the head with your left hand (Fig. 12).
USE AS A CIRCULAR SAW (Fig. 13-14)
WARNING!
When working on the upper table, it is necessary
to install the lower protective cap 23 supplied (Fig.
13).
The machine is equipped with a pusher the
dimensions and shape of which are in compliance
with the safety standards (Fig. 14).
