1
Lower the head down to the lower stop by means of 3.
2
Tighten or loosen screw 6 until button 5 smoothly
penetrates until abutting. Whilst retaining the screw,
fasten the nut.
Adjusting the vertical mitre angle to -45º (bezel)
Checking
1
Release vertical adjustment of the head by loosening
control element or nut 8.
2
Move head to the right stopper (90º/45º).
3
Check the angle by means of a duly calibrated angle
chart or a goniometer (minimum precision +- 5º) applying
Y
one of the surfaces thereof on cutting table and the other
on cutting disk.
4
Should the side of the angle chart not adjust exactly to
the disk or if the direct measurement of the goniometer
reached a deviation of more than +- 20º, proceed to
adjusting.
Adjusting
1
Place a goniometer (minimum precision +- 5º) applying
one of its sides on cutting table and the other on cutting
disk.
2
Act on adjusting screw 7 until obtaining a measurement
Y
of 90º/45º.
Adjusting the riving knife
The riving knife is the piece that holds the blade guard on the
upper table (17) in place.
Its function is to separate and divert the debris produced
when cutting on the upper table so that the debris does not
impact the user.
This metal part must always be separated from the blade by
at least 2 mm.
To adjust its position, follow the steps below:
Y
Set the machine in the down position.
3
Loosen the upper table adjustment screws (4) and raise
the table to its maximum height.
4
Use the screws located behind the cutting table adjuster
(4A) to adjust the knife's position.
CHANGING TOOLS
8.
Attention!
This operation must be carried out with the machine
unplugged and with the disk still. Use protective gloves.
- Use obligatorily disk according to normative EN 847-1
- Use obligatorily the regulatory push stick and save it away
if not use it.
- Use of fast steel disks prohibited (HSS)
- Use of defective or deformed prohibited
- Replace the table insert when worn
Removing the cutting blade
1
Lock the tool in the down position or leave at rest.
2
Remove the upper blade guard (17) by loosening the rear
screw and carefully pulling the part upwards.
3
Once the blade is exposed by the upper table, loosen the
adjustment screws on the upper table. Component 4A
has 2 cross-head screws; the other 3 adjustment points
(4) are hex screws.
4
Once the screws (4) have been loosened, gently pull the
upper table upwards and remove it.
5
Securing the blade locking lever (11) with your right hand,

turning clockwise.
Changing the cutting blade
1
Carefully clean all sawdust and dirt from the brackets,
flanges and inside of the guards.
2
Place the new cutting blade so that the direction of
the arrow on the front of the casing matches the arrow
engraved on the blade and the tilt of the blade's teeth.
3
Position the washer and screw. Tighten the screw
counter-clockwise
4
Put the upper table in place and tighten all the adjustment
screws (4).
5
Return the upper blade guard and tighten the screws to
secure it in place.
6
Check the correct operation by simulating a cutting
operation with no material present.
FIXING FOR OPERATION
9.
Whenever possible, the workpiece must be fixed in such a
manner that the hand does not intervene.
During the cut, keep the workpiece fixed to the support. ALL
MACHINES ARE PREPARED FOR MOUNTING CLAMPS
ALLOWING FASTENING THE PROFILE IN A SAFE
MANNER.
To avoid deformations of the workpieces during fixing thereof,
the use of wooden profiles being easily applicable to the
movable jaws of the clamps is advised. Clamps can be easily
extracted and leave the working surface totally clear.
For cutting long workpieces under safe conditions it is
essential to hold them with additional supports.
LIMITS REGARDING THE WORKPIECE SIZE
10.
Limits for all models as included in the present manual on
page 3.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
11.
Warning!
1
Do NOT use the machine if it is in a bad condition or
lacks parts including the prescribed upper guards (the
illustrations of the present manual may be used as an
orientative guide). Unplug it, remove it from the working
area and immediately send it to an authorized technical
service.
2
Know and comply with all safety measures before you
start the machine. Obligatory used of aspiration particle
system when cutting the wood.
Starting and stopping the machine
Information
1
The tool has 2 different mechanisms for engaging and
disengaging depending on the intended use. When
used as a mitre saw, it has only an engage/disengage
switch (12); when using the tool as a cutting table, the
on/off mechanism consists of 2 buttons that engage the
machine's motor directly (13). Both start-up and shut-off
systems are mutually exclusive and, for safety reasons,
cannot be used interchangeably or simultaneously.
2
The equipment is provided with a safety module protecting
it against unexpected starts. If, whilst the machine is
running, the supply of electrical power should cease, the
machine will not start after reestablishment thereof. To
release the protection push the starting button 2 twice.
Warnings!
1
Never leave running machine unattended.
2
Never start the machine with locked disk and, before
starting a cut, always wait until the cutting disk has
reached its maximum speed.
3
Before stopping the machine the disk must be clear and
be rotating freely.
