• Tilt the extension arm to the left at the required angle, which
you can read on the head tilt angle scale (34) using the head
tilt angle indicator (35) (fig. E).
• Tighten the head locking lever (14).
If it is necessary to adjust both angles (in both planes,
horizontal and vertical) for combination sawing, always
set the mitre sawing angle first.
CHECKING OPERATION OF THE LASER
The laser unit emits a laser beam that projects the line on a
workpiece that indicates how the workpiece will be cut. The
proper adjustment of the laser line projection has been
adjusted during the production process. Nevertheless, for
precision works, check this adjustment before starting to saw.
• Place batteries in the battery compartment (36) (fig. F)
paying attention to polarity.
• Set the working table in the position, where the working
table angle indicator (21) is aligned with the point of 0º on the
angle scale of the working table (20), while the head tilt angle
indicator (35) (fig. E) is aligned with the point of 0º on the
head tilt angle scale (34) (fig. E).
• Fasten a piece of waste material to the working table (25)
and make a cut.
• Release the extension arm and leave waste material fixed
to the working table of the saw.
• Set the laser switch button (37) to the ON position „I"
(marked).
• The projected light beam should be parallel to the
previously made cut.
LASER ADJUSTMENT
When the laser guiding beam is adjusted, do not look at the
source of the laser beam or its reflection on a reflective
surface. Always switch off the laser unit, when the laser is not
used.
Whenever the projected light beam is not parallel to the previously
made cut, proceed as follows:
• Slightly rotate the laser to the left or right (38) (fig. G) in the
laser unit housing (26), until the laser beam is position in
parallel. Do not rotate the laser unit using force and by more
than a few degrees.
• When any lateral adjustment is necessary, loosen the laser
unit mounting bolts (39) and move the laser unit to the left or
right, until the red line is parallel to the cut
• Dust arising from cutting may suppress laser light, therefore
it is necessary to clean the laser lens occasionally.
STARTING THE SAW
Before the switch button is pressed, ensure that the mitre saw
is assembled and adjusted properly and accordingly to
instructions in this manual.
• The described mitre saw is designed for the right-handed.
• Press the switch lock button (3).
• Press the switch button (4).
• Allow the saw motor to reach its full rotational speed.
• Press the cutting disc guard lever (5).
• Lower the extension arm towards a workpiece.
• Release pressure on the cutting disc guard lever (5).
• Make a cut.
STOPPING THE SAW
• Release pressure on the switch button (4) and wait until the
cutting disc comes to full stop.
• Raise the extension arm of the saw by putting it aside from
the workpiece.
Temporary sparking of brushes inside the electric motor
is normal when the mitre saw stops. Do not stop the
cutting disc by applying lateral pressure.
CUTTING WITH THE SAW
The workpiece should be fastened so it does not impede
using the mitre saw. Before switching the saw on, move
its head to the lower position to ensure that the saw head
and cutting disc guard are free to move. Make sure the
cutting disc guard can reach its extreme position.
Before the cut is commenced, make sure the working table locking
knob (23) and the head locking lever (14) of the mitre saw are
tightened and secured.
• Connect the mitre saw to the power mains.
• Make sure the power cord is away from the cutting disc and
base of the device.
• Place the workpiece onto the working table and make sure
it is secured so as it cannot move during the cut.
• Move the mitre saw heat to the extreme rear position and
lock the guide (13) using the guide locking knob (12).
• Unlock the head and cutting disc guard.
• Press the switch lock button and start the saw with the
switch (wait until the cutting disc reaches its maximum
rotational speed).
• Slowly lower the saw head.
• Start cutting by moderately pressing the head down.
Insufficient tightening of the locking knobs may cause
unexpected movement of the cutting disc to the upper
surface of the workpiece. It puts an operator to danger of
being hit with a piece of material.
CUTTING WITH THE MOVEMENT OF THE SAW
EXTENSION ARM (HEAD) OF THE MITRE SAW
The feeding of the saw extension arm allows forward and backward
movement of the cutting disc to cut wider workpieces.
• Set the extension arm in the upper position.
• Loosen the guide locking knob (12).
• Before switching on the saw, pull the extension arm to
yourself while holding it in the upper position.
• Press the switch lock button (3) and start the saw.
• Release the extension arm and wait until the cutting disc
reaches its maximum speed.
• Release the cutting disc guard.
• Lower the extension arm and start cutting.
• When cutting, move the extension arm to the back (away
from yourself).
• Once the workpiece has been cut, release pressure on the
switch button, and before you lift the saw arm to the upper
position, wait until the cutting disc stops rotating.
Never cut by moving the saw head towards yourself.
Otherwise, the cutting disc might catch the work piece,
which puts the operator in danger of recoil.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Before any operations related to installation, adjustment,
repairs or maintenance are commenced, the plug of the
power cord should be disconnected from the socket.
CLEANING
• When the work is completed, remove thoroughly all pieces
of material, chips and dust from the working table insert, area
around the cutting disc and its guard.
• Ensure the ventilation holes of the motor casing are clean,
there are no chips or dust.
