Adjusting the saw:
1. Loosen the ratchet lock lever (71)
for sawhead tilt at the rear of the
saw.
2. Tilt the track arm holder slowly into
the desired position:
Pull the notch lever (72) in the di-
rection of the operator side =
stepless track arm holder adjust-
ment.
Push the notch lever (72) in the
direction of the rear side = locking
the track arm holder in preset
stop positions.
3 Note:
The track arm holder can be engaged
w
ith positive stops at 0°, 22.5°, 33.9°
and 45° angles.
3. Tighten the sawhead tilt lock lever.
A Caution!
In order to prevent the ang
le of inclinati-
on from changing during cutting, tighten
the lock lever of the track arm holder (al-
so when engaged with a positive stop!) .
4. Cut the workpiece as described un-
der 'Mitre cuts'.
7.4 Compound mitre cuts
3 Note:
The compound mitre cut is a combinati-
on of mitre and bevel cuts. This means
the
workpiece is cut at an angle other
than 90° to the rear guide edge and to
its upper surface.
Maximum cut dimensions: see section
'Cut dimens
ions for various cuts'.
ADanger when safety devices
are detached!
Depending on the mitre and bevel ang-
les the fence attachments (halves) may
have to be removed.
Install the fence halves again imme-
diately after cutting!
Without the fence attachments the
h
eight of the fence is insufficient for safe
sawing. Tall workpieces could tip over
backwards!
ADanger!
When cutting compound mitres the saw
blade is
much more exposed than it nor-
mally is – increased risk of injury.
Always maintain a sufficient di-
stance to the saw blade.
Starting position:
Transport locking pin pulled out.
Sawhead fully raised.
Movable fence halves pushed apart
and locked
in place or removed.
Rotary table locked in desired positi-
on.
Track arm holder tilted to desired
angle to
the workpiece's surface and
locked in place.
Cutting the workpiece:
Cut the workpiece as described un-
der 'Mitre cuts'.
