Prism clamp (fig. N)
The prism clamp is used for supporting cutting
round and square materials.
• Clamp the workpiece using the prism clamp (42)
as shown.
Quick travel feature (fig. D)
The clamp has a quick travel feature.
• To release the clamp, rotate the handle (20) one
or two turns counterclockwise and pull the lever
(19) toward the handle (20).
Setting the clamping position (fig. D)
The clamping position can be set to match the
cutting blade.
• Pull the clamp lever (28) toward the handle (20)
to release the fence.
• Move the fence (7) as required.
• Push the clamp lever (28) back down to the
cutting table (9) to lock the fence.
If the clamp lever resistance is too light,
slightly tighten the two adjusting bolts on
the fence.
Setting the angle of cut (fig. D & G)
Your Elu toothed chopsaw can be used for mitre
cuts up to 45°.
• Pull the clamp lever (28) toward the handle (20)
to release the fence (fig. D).
• Set the fence (7) to the required angle. The angle
can be read on the scale (29). Use the slot edge
(30) as a reference (fig. G).
• Push the clamp lever (28) back down to the
cutting table (9) to lock the fence (fig. D).
If additional clamping is required, the angle of cut can
be further fixed in the 90° and 45° cross-cut positions.
• Align the fence (7) with slot (31) or slot (32) in order
to fix the 90° or 45° cross-cut position (fig. G).
• Align the fence (7) with slot (33) or slot (34) in
order to fix the 90° or 45° cross-cut position for
large workpieces.
• Place the screw (41) through the fence into one
of the holes (35) and tighten.
Checking and adjusting the mitre scale (fig. D, H & I)
• Pull the clamp lever (28) toward the handle (20)
to release the fence (fig. D).

• Pull down the arm and lock it in this position by
pushing in the lock-down pin (36) (fig. I).
• Place a square (37) against the fence (7) and the left
side of the cutting blade creating a perfect 90° (fig. H).
Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth
with the square.
• Push the clamp lever (28) back down to the
cutting table (9) to lock the fence (fig. D).
• Pull out the lock-down pin (36) and return the
arm to its upper rest position.
• Check that the 0° marking on the scale (29)
aligns with the edge of the slot (30) (fig. H).
If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
• Loosen the screws (38).
• Align the 0° marking on the scale (29) with the
edge of the slot (30).
• Retighten the screws (38).
Adjusting the spark deflector (fig. J)
• Loosen the screw (39).
• Set the spark deflector (40) as appropriate.
• Tighten the screw (39).
Instructions for use
• Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
• Do not apply excessive pressure to
the tool.
• Avoid overloading. Should the tool
become hot, let it run a few minutes
under no load condition.
Prior to operation:
• Install the appropriate cutting blade. Only use
sharp or correctly sharpened blades.
The maximum rotation speed of the tool must
not exceed that of the cutting blade.
• Make sure the blade rotates in the direction of
the arrows on the accessory and the tool.
• Secure the workpiece.
• Make sure all locking knobs and clamp handles
are tight.
• Always set the spark deflector correctly.
• Do not attempt to cut excessively small pieces.
Never perform cuts on small workpieces bundled
together.
