Support for short and long pieces (fi g. 3)
CUTTING SHORT MATERIAL
It is advisable to use the length stop (mm) for short
workpieces both for batch sawing and for short individual
workpieces of different lengths. The length stop can only be
used in conjunction with a pair of optional guide rails (ii).
CUTTING LARGE MATERIAL
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury,
always support long workpieces.
Figure 3 shows the ideal confi guration for sawing long
workpieces when the saw is used free-standing (all items
available as an option).
These items (except the legstand and the material clamp)
are required both on the infeed and the outfeed side:
- Legstand (nn) (supplied with mounting instruc-
tions).
- Guide rails (500 or 1,000 mm) (ii).
- Stands (mm) to support the guide rails. Do not
use the stands to support the machine! The
height of the stands is adjustable.
- Material support plates (jj).
- Table end plate (hh) for supporting the rails (also
when working on an existing bench).
- Material clamp (kk).
- Swivelling stop (ll).
1. Place your saw on the legstand and fi t the guide
rails.
2. Firmly screw the material support plates (jj) to the
guide rails (ii).
3. The material clamp (kk) now functions as a length
stop.
4. Install the table end plates (hh).
5. Install the swivelling stop (ll) to the rear rail.
6. Use the swivelling stop (ll) to adjust the length of
medium and long workpieces. It can be adjusted
sideways or swung out of the way when not in use.
Dust extraction (fi g. 1, 6)
WARNING: Whenever possible, connect a dust
extraction device designed in accordance
with the relevant regulations regarding dust
emission.
Connect a dust collection device designed in accordance
with the relevant regulations. The air velocity of externally
connected systems shall be 20m/s +/- 2 m/s. Velocity to
be measured in the connection tube at the point of con-
nection, with the tool connected but not running.
A separate dust kit is available as an option.
1. Fit the dust extraction tubes (qq) to the nozzles (q);
the longer hose to upper nozzle.
2. Connect the hoses to the three-way connector (rr).
Transporting (fi g. 1)
WARNING: In order to conveniently carry the
mitre saw, the base is provided with two hand
indentations (ff).
1. To transport the saw, set the bevel and mitre positions
to 0°.
2. Press the lower guard lock up release lever (b)
(fi g.1).
3. Press the head down and press the lock down button
(w) (fi g. 2).
4. Bring the saw blade to rest position and press the
traverse lock (r).
MAINTENANCE
Your BTI power tool has been designed to operate over
a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper
tool care and regular cleaning.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn
unit off and disconnect machine from power
source before installing and removing acces-
sories, 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: If the saw blade is worn replace it
with a new sharp blade.
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of the main
housing with dry air as often as dirt is seen
collecting in and around the air vents. Wear
approved eye protection and approved dust
mask when performing this procedure.
