8. Check the saw blade that will be fitted to ensure it is not heavily worn, bent or damaged
and no teeth are missing
9. Check the arrow marking of the blade matches the Rotation Indicator (26). The teeth
must point down towards the workpiece
10. Check the blade mounting is clean and clear of swarf and dust and fit the blade into the
recess of the Fixed Blade Guard and onto the blade mounting
11. Press the Spindle Lock and re-fit the blade flange and Blade Securing Bolt and tighten
securely anti-clockwise without over-tightening. Do not leave the hex key in the bolt
after tightening
12. Rotate the Rotating Blade Guard back over the blade and re-fit the blade guard screw to
the lower guard operating arm (Image II & I)
13. Check the normal operation of the Rotating Blade Guard by pressing the Release Lever
and moving the cutting head up and down with the Operating Handle
14. Re-connect to mains power and run the saw for a short time to make sure the blade is
rotating and operating correctly
Operation
WARNING: ALWAYS wear eye protection, adequate respiratory and hearing protection, as well
as suitable gloves, when working with this tool.
Adjusting the mitre angle
The Mitre Angle Locking Knob (20) is used to lock the table at the desired mitre angle. The
mitre saw cuts from 0° to 45° both left and right. To adjust the mitre angle:
1. Loosen the Mitre Angle Locking Knob
2. Rotate the mitre angle with the Operating Handle (1) to the desired position using the
Mitre Angle Indicator (9) and Mitre Angle Gauge (11). The mitre table features positive
click stops at 0, 5, 10, 15, 22.5, 30, 35, 40 and 45° both left and right for quick setting of
common mitre angles
3. Retighten the Mitre Angle Locking Knob to lock the angle setting
WARNING: Be sure to tighten the Mitre Angle Locking Knob before making a cut. Failure to do
so could result in the table moving during the cut and cause serious personal injury.
Adjusting the bevel angle
The Bevel Angle Locking Knob (31) is used to set the blade at the desired bevel angle. The
mitre saw bevel cuts from 0° to 45° to the left only. To adjust the bevel angle:
1. Ensure the Mitre Angle Locking Knob (20) is tight
2. Loosen the Bevel Angle Locking Knob (31)
3. Tilt the cutting head with the Carrying Handle (38)
4. Use the Bevel Angle Indicator (32) and Bevel Angle Gauge (30) to set the correct angle
5. Retighten the Bevel Angle Locking Knob to secure in position
WARNING: Be sure to tighten the Bevel Angle Locking Knob before making a cut. Failure to do
so could result in the saw arm moving during the cut and cause serious personal injury.
Switching on and off
• To turn the saw on, depress and hold the On/Off Trigger Switch (2)
• To turn the saw off, release the On/Off trigger switch
Making a cut
• A compound mitre cut involves using a mitre angle and a bevel angle at the same time.
It is used to make picture frames, cut mouldings, make boxes with sloping sides, and for
roof framing
• Always make a test cut on a piece of scrap wood before cutting the workpiece.
1. Pull on the Release Lever (3) and lift the cutting head to its full height
2. Loosen the Mitre Angle Locking Knob (20)
3. Rotate the Mitre Base (17) until the Mitre Angle Indicator (9) aligns with the desired
angle on the Mitre Angle Gauge (11)
4. Retighten the Mitre Angle Locking Knob
WARNING: Be sure to tighten the Mitre Angle Locking Knob before making a cut. Failure to
do so could result in the table moving during the cut, causing serious personal injury.
5. Loosen the Bevel Angle Locking Knob (31) and move the cutting head to the left or right
to the desired bevel angle (between 0° and 45°). Tighten the Bevel Angle Locking Knob
6. Place the workpiece flat on the table with one edge securely against the Fence (8). If the
board is warped, place the convex side against the fence. If the concave side is placed
against the fence, the board could break and jam the blade
7. When cutting long pieces of timber, support the opposite end of the timber with a roller
stand or a work surface that is level with the saw table
8. Use the Clamp (6) to secure the workpiece wherever possible. NOTE: It is possible to
remove the Clamp by loosening the Clamp Mounting (7 & 18) and moving it to the other
side of the table. Make sure the Clamp Mounting is tight before using the Clamp
9. Before turning on the saw, perform a dry run of the cutting operation to check that there
are no problems
10. Hold the Operating Handle (1) firmly and squeeze the On/Off Trigger Switch (2). Allow
the blade to reach maximum speed
11. Press the Release Lever (3) and slowly lower the blade into and through the workpiece
1400W Compound Mitre Saw
12. Release the On/Off Trigger Switch and allow the saw blade to stop rotating before
raising the blade out of the workpiece. Wait until the
the workpiece

Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any inspection,
maintenance or cleaning.
Bevel Angle 0° Adjustment
Checking angle
1. Loosen the Bevel Angle Locking Knob (31) and position the cutting head at the maximum
height with the Bevel Angle Indicator at 0° on the Bevel Angle Gauge (30). Tighten the
Bevel Angle Locking Knob
2. Lower the cutting head so the exposed blade is in the Blade Channel (13) and lock in
this position with the Latching Pin (36)
3. Recheck that the cutting head is upright and the Bevel Angle Indicator is still at 0°
4. Place a set square on the table with one short edge against the Mitre Base (17) and the
other short edge against the blade (avoiding the TCT tips) - see Image IV
Note: If the blade is not square with the Mitre Base, adjustment is required
Changing angle
1. There are two Hex Bolts at the base of the cutting head section (the left bolt is indicated
on Image V). These allow adjustment to move the cutting head assembly to tilt to the
right or left so the blade vertical angle will change
2. Turn the thin nut (locking nut) on the required bolt thread so it is at a higher position, and
make a small adjustment to the bolt with the provided hex key (the adjustment should
be very small).
3. Re-tighten the thin nut
4. You may need to adjust the bevel angle by loosening the Bevel Angle Locking Knob so
you can move the cutting head to the left to access the bolt you need
5. Return the cutting head to its upright position and recheck the angular alignment against
the square
6. Repeat the above steps until a 90° angle is achieved
7. Tighten the Bevel Angle Locking Knob
8. A minor adjustment can be made with the Bevel Angle Indicator (32) so it is set to 0°
when the set square is at a 90° angle (Image IV)
Mitre Angle 0°Adjustment
The major adjustment of the mitre angle 0° position is achieved by altering the Fence (8)
position
1. Loosen the Mitre Angle Locking Knob (20)
2. Rotate the mitre angle with the Operating Handle (1) to the desired 0° position using the
Mitre Angle Indicator (9) and Mitre Angle Gauge (11)
3. Retighten the Mitre Angle Locking Knob to lock the angle setting
4. Lower the cutting head so the exposed blade is in the Blade Channel (13) and lock in
this position with the Latching Pin (36)
5. Use a set square to check the 90° angle between the Fence (8) and the Saw Blade (23) -
see Image VI
6. Adjust the position of the Fence by loosening Fence Bolt (L) (19) and Fence Bolt (R) (35)
so the Fence is at exactly 90° using the set square
7. Re-tighten the two Fence Bolts
8. Re-check that the Mitre Angle Indicator is still at 0°. A very minor adjustment can
be made of the Mitre Angle Indicator by loosening the screw and making a small
adjustment to the indicator direction
9. Release the Latching Pin and allow the cutting head to return to its top position
Replacing the Table Insert
IMPORTANT: If the table insert is damaged or heavily worn, it must be replaced to ensure safe
operation of the tool.
1. To replace the Table Insert (14) loosen the Fence Bolt (L) (19) and unscrew and remove
Fence Bolt (R)(35) and angle the Fence (8) away from the Table Insert. Unscrew the
Table Insert Screw (12) and remove the Table Insert
2. Clean the Blade Channel (13) and fit the new Table Insert. Refit and tighten the Table
Insert Screw
3. Move the Fence back to the correct position and refit the Fence Bolt (R). Ensure the
Fence is at the correct angle with a square before tightening the two Fence Bolts
4. To ensure the fence is at the right angle, with the tool powered off, bring down the blade
and use a square to make sure the blade and fence are at exactly 90°
