• Do not cut light alloy and ferrous metal (containing iron or
steel) or masonry or fibre cement product with this mitre
saw.
• Depress the head lock up release lever (cc) to release
the lower guard (b),then raise the lower guard as far as
possible.
1. With the lower guard held in the raised position, depress the
spindle lock button (x) with one hand, then use the supplied
blade spanner (i) in the other hand to loosen the left-hand
threaded blade locking screw (nn) by turning clockwise.
WARNING! To use the spindle lock, press the button as
shown and rotate the spindle by hand until you feel the lock
engage.
Continue to hold the lock button in to keep the spindle from
turning.
2. Remove the blade locking screw (nn) and the outside arbor collar
(pp).
3. Install the saw blade (oo) onto the blade adaptor (qq) seated
directly against the inside arbor collar (rr), making sure that the
teeth at the bottom edge of the blade are pointing toward the back
of the saw (away from the operator).
4. Replace the outer arbor collar (pp).
5. Tighten the blade locking screw (nn) carefully by turning counter-
clockwise while holding the spindle lock engaged with your other
hand.
WARNING! Be aware the saw blade shall be replaced in
the described way only. Only use saw blades as specified
under Technical Data; Cat.no.: DT4323 is suggested.
Adjustments
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off
and disconnect machine from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting
or changing set-ups or when making repairs. Be sure
the trigger switch is in the OFF position. An accidental
start-up can cause injury.
Your mitre saw was accurately adjusted at the factory. If readjustment
due to shipping and handling or any other reason is required, follow the
steps below to adjust your saw. Once made, these adjustments should
remain accurate.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE MITRE SCALE (FIG. 10, 11)
1. Release the mitre lock lever (e) and swing the mitre arm until the
latch locates it at the 0° mitre position. Do not lock miter lock
lever (e).
2. Pull down the head until the blade just enters the saw kerf (s).
3. Place a square (tt) against the left side of the fence (v) and blade
(oo) (fig. 10).
WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with
the square.
If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
4. Loosen the three screws (ss) and move the scale/mitre arm
assembly left or right until the blade perpendicular to the fence as
measured with the square.
5. Retighten the three screws (ss). Pay no attention to the reading of
the mitre pointer at this point.
ADJUSTING THE MITRE POINTER (FIG. 10–12)
1. Release the mitre lock lever (e) and depress the mitre detent (t) to
release the mitre arm (a1).
2. Move the mitre arm to set the mitre pointer (uu) to the zero position,
as shown in figure 12.
3. With the mitre lever loose, allow the mitre latch to snap into place
as you rotate the mitre arm past zero.
4. Observe the pointer (uu) and mitre scale (f). If the pointer does not
indicate exactly zero, loosen the screw (a2), move the pointer to
read 0° and tighten the screw.
MITRE LOCK ROD ADJUSTMENT (FIG. 22)
If the base of the saw can be moved while the mitre lock lever (e) is
locked, the mitre lock rod must be adjusted.

1. Unlock the mitre lock lever (e).
2. Place the mitre lock lever (e) in the up position.
3. Using a hex wrench, loosen the set screw (v v) on the pivot pin.
NOTE: Some models will not have this set screw, proceed to
step 4.
4. Adjust the mitre lock rod in 45˚ clockwise turn increments to
increase the lock force.
5. Check that the table does not move when the lever (e) is locked at
a random (not preset) angle.
6. Tighten set screw (v v).
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE BLADE TO THE TABLE (FIG. 13–18)
1. Loosen the bevel clamp handle (p).
2. Press the mitre arm to the right to ensure it is fully vertical with
the angle position stop (z) located against the vertical position
adjustment stop (bb) and tighten the bevel clamp handle.
3. Pull down the head until the blade just enters the saw kerf (s).
4. Place a set square (tt) on the table and up against the blade (oo)
(fig. 15).
WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with
the square.
If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
5. Loosen the lock nut (ww) a few turns, and while making sure the
stop screw (bb) is firmly in contact with the angle position stop (z),
turn the vertical position adjustment stop screw (bb) in or out until
the blade is at 90º to the table as measured with the square.
6. Firmly tighten the lock nut (ww) while holding the stop screw (bb)
stationary.
7. If the bevel pointer (xx) does not indicate zero on the bevel scale
(q), loosen the screw (yy) that secures the pointer and move the
pointer as necessary.
ADJUSTING THE FENCE (FIG. 19)
The upper part of the fence can be adjusted to provide clearance,
allowing the saw to bevel to a full 48° both left and right.
To adjust the left fence (v):
1. Loosen the plastic knob (k) and slide the fence to the left.
2. Make a dry run with the saw switched off and check for clearance.
Adjust the fence to be as close to the blade as practical to provide
maximum workpiece support, without interfering with the up and
down movement of the arm.
3. Tighten the knob securely.
WARNING: The guide grooves (zz) can become clogged
with sawdust. Use a stick or some low pressure air to clear
the guide grooves.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE BEVEL ANGLE (FIG. 19, 20)
1. Loosen the left side fence clamping knob (k) and slide the upper
part of the left side fence to the left as far as it will go.
2. Loosen the bevel clamp handle (p) and move the saw arm to
the left until the angle position stop (z) rests on the bevel position
adjustment stop (aa). This is the 45° bevel position.
If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
3. Loosen the locknut (ww) a few turns and turn the bevel position
adjustment stop screw (aa) in or out until the pointer (xx) indicates
45° with the angle position stop (z) resting on the bevel position
adjustment stop.
4. Firmly tighten the lock nut (ww) while holding the stop screw (aa)
stationary.
5. To achieve a 3° right bevel or a 48° left bevel, the two adjustment
stop screws must be adjusted to allow the saw arm to move the as
necessary.
GUARD ACTUATION AND VISIBILITY
The blade guard on your saw has been designed to automatically raise
when the arm is brought down and to lower over the blade when the
arm is raised.
The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing saw
blades or for inspection of the saw. NEVER RAISE THE BLADE GUARD
MANUALLY UNLESS THE SAW IS TURNED OFF.
