Setting mitre and bevel angles
To ensure precise cuts, the basic settings of the power tool must be checked and adjusted as necessary after intensive use.
Setting Bevel Angles (saw blade) (see figure A)
The bevel angle can be set between 0° and 45°.
- Loosen the locking lever (16) by turning it anticlockwise.
Note: When the locking lever is fully loosened, gravity causes the saw blade to tilt into a position that corresponds to approximately 30°.
- Pull or push the hand wheel (18) along the slotted link until the angle indicator (59) shows the required bevel angle.
- Hold the hand wheel in this position and retighten the locking lever (16).
For quick and precise setting of the standard bevel angles of 0° and 45°, there are pre-set stops ((24)),((22)).
Setting mitre angles (angle guide) (see figure B)
The mitre angle can be set between 30° (left-hand side) and 30° (right-hand side).
- Loosen the locking knob (60) if it is tightened.
- Turn the angle guide until the angle indicator (61) shows the required mitre angle.
- Retighten the locking knob (60).
