INSTALLATION
1. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Before connecting the machine to the mains, one must make sure
that it complies with current regula-tions in the country where it is
used and that the voltage and frequency are as indicated on the
char-acteristics plate.
When extensions are used, make sure that the cross section of
the cables is suited to their length. If using roll up extensions,
make sure that they unroll completely in order to prevent
overheating.
WARNING – before plugging in the machine, make sure that
the switch lock button is released.
2. WORKPLACE
The tool that you have purchased is a transportable or semi-
stationary electric tool. Only one operator is needed to use it,
given its structure, weight and ease of handling.
In normal use, the operator is in front of the machine with the
handle to his right. The right hand on the handle allows the
machine to be handled completely, in fact, the switch and a safety
hook may be accessed without releasing the handle.
CONSTANT ELECTRONICS
The built-in module permits:
- Soft start.
- The maintenance of a practically constant rated speed up to
rated power.
- An overload protection system by means of current cut-off
in the case of motor overload, in which case the burring machine
shuts down and re-starts when the grinding pressure has been
reduced.
MITRE SAW ADJUSTMENT - SQUARING
The mitre is delivered by the manufacturer already adjusted and
squared according to standard pa-rameters.
WARNING – before making any adjustment of the mitre,
unplug the machine.
1. BLADE UNIT LIFTING
An internal spring keeps the motor unit at rest position (raised).
In this position, a safety hook prevents the unit from being
activated accidentally.
1.1 To unlock the motor unit and to be able to use the machine as
a mitre saw, activate the front button D (Fig.1) (the operation may
be carried out with the right hand on the handle).
1.2. To use the machine as a bench circular saw, unlock the
motor unit as indicated in 1.1, and after lowering it completely,
block it with pin P (Fig.1a).
2. BLADE PENETRATION ADJUSTMENT
The depth of penetration has already been adjusted by the
manufacturer during testing.
As incorrect adjustment may cause sharpness to be lost quickly
and/or the teeth of the blade to be broken, further adjustment
might be needed, in which case it will be necessary to work as
follows:
- Activate bolt A (Fig.1а) and the corresponding lock nut to
create a lower limit for the motor housing ideal for preventing
the blades from coming into contact with the turntable.
WARNING – once for this operation is complete, make sure
that the blade is NOT in contact with the turntable and that
the lock nut is tightened.
3. TURNTABLE ADJUSTMENT
0º Regulation (Fig.3)

- Set the turntable to zero.
- Loosen the handles V, remove the guides X – Optional
accessory and loosen bolts Y.
- Set a square between the saw blade and guide M (Fig.1).
- Keeping the turntable at zero, move the guide to 90º on the
square.
- Tighten bolts Y, assemble guides X and adjust handles V –
optional accessory.
4. ADJUSTING THE SAW BLADE WITH RESPECT TO THE
WORKING PLANE
90º adjustment (Fig.2)
- Lower the head of the machine and lock with pin P (Fig.1a)

- Set the turntable to zero and lock.
- Set the head to 45º and lean a 45º square between the base
and the saw blade.
- Loosen lever O and adjust using bolt Z.
- Regulate the 45º using bolt Z1 (Fig.1a), after releasing the
lock nut.
