Bench Mounting (Fig. B)
1. Holes
22
are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench mounting.
Bolts with a diameter of 8mm and 80mm in length is suggested.
Always mount your saw firmly to prevent movement. To enhance the
portability, the tool can be mounted to a piece of 12.5mm or thicker
plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to
other job sites andreclamped.
2. When mounting your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that the
mounting screws do not protrude from the bottom of the wood.
The plywood must sit flush on the work support. When clamping the
saw to any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses where
the mounting screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will
interfere with the proper operation of thesaw.
3. To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the mounting surface is
not warped or otherwise uneven. If the saw rocks on the surface, place
a thin piece of material under one saw foot until the saw is firm on the
mountingsurface.


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.
WARNING: The teeth of a new blade are very sharp and can
bedangerous.

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.: DT4320 issuggested.
1. Insert the 6mm hex key

flange
33
making sure that the teeth at the bottom edge of the blade
are pointing towards the fence (away from the operator).
6. Replace the outer flange
5
, making sure that the location lugs
36
are
engaged correctly, one on each side of the motorshaft.

ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn
machine off and disconnect battery pack before making any
adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.
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.
Adjusting the Traverse Bars for Constant Cutting
Depth (Fig. A, B, F, H)
The blade must run at a constant cutting depth along the full length of the
table and must not touch the fixed table at the rear of the slot or at the front
of the rotating arm. To achieve this, the traverse arms must be perfectly
parallel to the table when the saw head is fullydepressed.
1. Press the lower guard lock up release lever
2
(Fig.A).
2. Press the saw head fully to the rear position and measure the height
from the rotating table
14
to the bottom of the outer flange
5
(Fig.F).
3. Turn the saw head traverse lock
18
(Fig.B).
4. Keeping the saw head fully depressed, pull the head to the end of
itstravel.
5. Measure the height indicated in figureF again. Both values should
beidentical.
6. If adjustment is required, proceed as follows (Fig.H):
a. Loosen the locknut
37
in the bracket
38
and adjust the screw
39
as required, proceeding in smallsteps.
b. Tighten the locknut
37
.

WARNING: Always check that the blade does not touch the table at
the rear of the slot or at the front of the rotating arm at 90° vertical
and 45° bevel positions. Do not switch on before having checkedthis!
Adjusting the Fence (Fig. I)
Turn the sliding fence lock knob
9
anti-clockwise to loosen. Move the
sliding fence
16
to a position that avoids the blade cuts it,then tighten the
fence lock knob by turningclockwise.
Checking and Adjusting the Blade to the Fence
(Fig. B, J, K)
1. Slacken the mitre latch
13
.
2. Place your thumb on the mitre arm
12
and squeeze the mitre latch
13
to release the rotating table/mitre arm
14
.
3. Swing the mitre arm until the latch locates it at the 0° mitreposition.
4. Pull down the head and lock it in this position using the lock down
button
23
.
5. Check that the two 0° markings
40
on the mitre scale
15
are
justvisible.
6. Place a square
41

16
and blade
8
.

WARNING: Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth with thesquare.
7. If adjustment is required, proceed asfollows:
a. Loosen the screws
42
and move the scale/mitre arm assembly left
or right until the blade is at 90° to the fence as measured with the
square (Fig.J).
b. Retighten the screws
42
.

1. Loosen the bevel clamp handle
20
(Fig.L).
2. Press the saw head to the right to ensure it is fully vertical and tighten
the bevel clamphandle.

does not indicate zero on the bevel
scale
21
, loosen the screws
45
