► Open the clamping lever [10.2].
► Move the stop ruler until the shortest dis­
tance to the saw blade when working is a
maximum of 3/16" (4.5 mm).
► Close the clamping lever again.
Removing the stop ruler
A stop ruler may need to be removed for some
mitre cuts, since it may otherwise collide with
the saw unit.
► Insert the screw [10.3] into the threaded
hole and tighten it as far as possible (down­
wards).
► You will then be able to pull out the stop
ruler sideways.
► Loosen the screw again by three rotations
once you have reinserted the stop ruler.
Auxiliary stop
11.1
11
To increase the stop area, you can install an
auxiliary stop made of wood [11.2] in the
holes [11.1] in each of the two stop rulers. This
allows you to set up larger workpieces more
securely.
In doing this, be aware of the following:
– The screws you use to secure the auxiliary
stops must not protrude from the surface.
– The auxiliary stops must only be used for 0°
cuts.
– The auxiliary stops must not impede the
functionality of the guards.
8.7 Horizontal mitre angle
The horizontal mitre angle can be continuously
adjusted between 50° (left side) and 60° (right
side). In addition, there are snap-in positions
for common mitre angles.
The arrow of the indicator [12.1] points to the
set horizontal mitre angle. The two markings on
the right and left of the indicator arrow enable
16
precise setting of half-degree angles. For this
to work, both of these markings must line up
with the degree dashes on the scale.

Standard horizontal mitre angles
The following mitre angles have snap-in posi­
tions:
Left: 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30°, 45°
Right: 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 30°, 45, 60°
► Move the machine into the working position.
► Pull the clamping lever [12.3] upwards.
► Press the notch lever [12.2] downwards.
► Rotate the saw table until you get to the mi­
tre angle you want.
► Release the notch lever. You must feel the
notch lever engage.
► Press the clamping lever downwards.
11.2
Optional horizontal mitre angles
► Move the machine into the working position.
► Pull the clamping lever [12.3] upwards.
► Press the notch lever [12.2] downwards.
► Rotate the saw table until you get to the mi­
tre angle you want.
► Press the clamping lever downwards.
► Release the notch lever.
8.8 Vertical mitre angle
► Move the machine into the working position.
► Open the clamping lever [13.1].
► Turn the selector switch [13.2] to the ad­
justment range you would like (0°–45°,
+/-45° or +/-47°).
► Swivel the saw unit until the indicator [13.3]
points to the mitre angle you would like. You
can fine-tune the setting of the vertical mi­
tre angle using the rotary handle for preci­
sion adjustment [13.4].
► Close the clamping lever[13.1] again.
