Adjusting the Mitre Angle
Setting Standard Mitre Angles (see figure H)
For quick and precise setting of commonly used mitre angles, detents (14) are provided on the saw table:
Leftward | Rightward |
|---|---|
0° | |
45°; 31.6°; 22.5°; 15° | 15°; 22.5°; 31.6°; 45°; 60° |
- Loosen the locking knob (11) if it is tightened.
- Pull the lever (12) and rotate the saw table (37) left or right to the required detent.
- Release the lever again. The lever must be felt to engage in the detent.
- Retighten the locking knob (11).
Setting Any Mitre Angle (see figure I)
The mitre angle can be set between 52° (left side) and 60° (right side).
- Loosen the locking knob (11) if it is tightened.
- Pull the lever (12) and at the same time press the locking clamp (10) until this clicks into the slot provided for it. This means the saw table can now move freely.
- Turn the saw table (37) left or right by the locking knob until the angle indicator (57) shows the required mitre angle.
- Retighten the locking knob (11).
- To loosen the lever (12) again (for setting standard mitre angles), pull the lever upwards.
The locking clamp (10) springs back into its original position and the lever (12) can click back into the detents (14).
