5. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.

5.1 General information

•
The equipment must be set up where it can
stand securely, i.e. it should be bolted to a
workbench, a universal base frame or similar.
•
All covers and safety devices have to be pro-
perly fitted before the equipment is switched
on.
•
It must be possible for the blade to run freely.
•
When working with wood that has been pro-
cessed before, watch out for foreign bodies
such as nails or screws, etc.
•
Before you actuate the On/Off switch, make
sure that the saw blade is correctly fitted
and that the equipment's moving parts run
smoothly.
5.2 Assembling the saw (Fig. 1-4)
•
Insert the two workpiece supports (10) into
the lateral holes on the fixed saw table (18).
Secure the workpiece supports (10) with the
screw (12), which serves as an end stop. Use
a crosstip screwdriver to do this.
•
The workpiece support (10) can be moved
to adjust it to the length of the workpiece you
want to saw. Once the workpiece support (10)
is in the correct position, the adjustment is
fixed with the locking grip (11).
•
To fit the sawdust bag (27) to the discharge
opening (28) on the crosscut saw, spread the
metal ring apart on the opening. When the
metal ring is back in its original shape, the sa-
wdust bag is held securely in position.
•
The clamping device (8) can be fitted on the
left or right of the fixed saw table (18).
•
Fit the transport handle (43) with the two
screws (46).
•
A crosstip screwdriver is not supplied with the
product.
•
Note: The 6mm hexagon key (45) for chan-
ging the saw blade should be kept on the
back of the machine (see Fig. 20).

5.3 Adjusting the saw (Fig. 1-3,5)
•
To adjust the turntable (19), the locking lever
(20) must be in the top position. Only then is it
possible to adjust the turntable while holding
the release button (21) pressed down. (see
Fig. 5)
•
Turn the turntable (19) and scale pointer (22)
to the desired angular setting on the scale
(23).
•
The saw has locking positions at angles of -
45°, -30°, -22.5°, -15°, 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30° and
45°, at which the turntable (19) audibly clicks
into position. Once the turntable is engaged,
the setting must be additionally secured by
pressing the locking lever (20) down.
•
If different angle settings are required, the
turntable (19) may be secured in position
using only the locking lever (20).
•
To release the saw from its position at the
bottom, pull the retaining pin (30) out of the
motor mounting while pressing down lightly
on the machine head (4).
•
Swing up the machine head (4).
•
To adjust the machine head (4) for a miter
cut, the locking grip (26) must be in the top
position.
•
Then you can tilt the machine head (4) to the
left by up to 45°. After the desired angular set-
ting has been set on the scale pointer (24) on
the scale (25), secure the machine head (4)
again with the locking grip (26).
•
To tilt the machine head to the right by up to
45°, proceed as follows:
- Tilt the machine head (4) by approx. 10° to
the left.
- Press and hold the release lever (9).
- Swing the machine head (4) over the 0°
line to the right.
- After reaching approx. 10° on the right-
hand side, let go of the release lever (9).
- When the scale pointer (24) reaches the
desired angular setting on the scale (25),
secure the machine head (4) again with the
locking grip (26).
•
To return the machine head to 0° on the scale
(25) there is no need to press the release
lever (9) again.
•
To ensure that the saw is standing securely,
adjust the adjustable foot (17) by turning it so
that the saw stands in a horizontal and firm
position.
•
The machine head (4) can be moved back-
wards and forwards using the drag function.
To prevent the drag function, the guide rails
can be fixed in a specific position with the
