• Swing the machine head (4) upwards and lock with
the locking bolt (23).
• Fold the saw blade guard (5) upwards.
• Use one hand to insert the Allen key (C) in the flange
screw (28).
• Firmly press the saw shaft lock (30) and slowly ro-
tate the flange screw (28) in clockwise direction. The
saw shaft lock (30) engages after no more than one
rotation.
• Now, using a little more force, slacken the flange
screw (28) in the clockwise direction.
• Turn the flange screw (28) right out and remove the
outer flange (29).
• Take the blade (6) off the inner flange (31) and pull
out downwards.
• Carefully clean the flange screw (28), outer flange
(29) and inner flange (32).
• Fit and fasten the new saw blade (6) in reverse order.
• Important!
The cutting angle of the teeth, in other words the di-
rection of rotation of the saw blade (6) must coincide
with the direction of the arrow on the housing.
• Before continuing your work make sure that all safe-
ty devices are in good working condition.
• Important!
Every time that you change the saw blade (6), check
to see that it spins freely in the table insert (10) in
both perpendicular and 45° angle settings.
• Important!
The work to change and align the saw blade (6) must
be carried out correctly.
8.11 Using the laser (fig. 17)
• To switch on:
Press the ON/OFF switch laser (33) 1x. A laser line
is projected onto the material you wish to process,
providing an exact guide for the cut.
• To switch off:
Press again the ON/OFF switch laser (33).
8.12 Adjusting the laser (fig. 18)
If the laser (32) ceases to indicate the correct cutting
line, you can readjust the laser. To do this, open the
screws (32b) and remove the front cover (32a). Loosen
the Philips head screws (D) and set the laser by moving
sideways until the laser beam strikes the teeth of the
saw blade (6).
After you have adjusted and tightened the laser, mount
the front cover and hand-tighten the two screws (32b).
8.13 Changing the speed (fig. 17)
The mitre saw has 2 speed ranges:
• To operate the mitre saw at a speed of 3200 rpm
(metal), set the speed regulation switch (38) to po-
sition I.
• To operate the saw at a speed of 4500 min
(wood), set the speed regulation switch (38) to po-
sition II.

Transport
• Tighten the locking handle (11) to lock the rotary ta-
ble.
• Press the machine head (4) downwards and secure
with the locking bolt (23).
• Fix the saw's drag function with the locking screw for
drag guide (20) in rear position.
• Carry the equipment by the fixed saw table (15).
• When reassembling the equipment proceed as de-
scribed under section 7.
• To store the cable, wrap the cable around the two
cable holders (37). (Fig. 22)
10. Maintenance
m Warning!
Prior to any adjustment, maintenance or service work
disconnect the mains power plug!
General maintenance measures
Wipe chips and dust off the machine from time to time
using a cloth. In order to extend the service life of the
tool, oil the rotary parts once monthly. Do not oil the
motor.
When cleaning the plastic do not use corrosive prod-
ucts.
Cleaning the moving saw blade guard safety de-
vice (5)
Always check the saw blade guard for debris before
using the machine.
Remove old sawdust and splinters using a brush or
similar tool.
