Use of the lower cutting table
Warning!
1
The risk of accidents due to a contact with the cutting
disk appearing at the upper table. For your own safety,
carry out the following preparation before working with
the lower table.
2
It is mandatory to carry out any settings with the cable
unplugged.
Safety setting of the upper cutting table for cutting
operations with the lower table
The mandatory requirement is that in the upper table the teeth
of the disc must not remain exposed. Cover the disc of the
upper table with the upper rectangular aluminium protector.
Link the two strapping bands in the back and front part of the
upper table. Ensure the fastening by tightening the black wing
nut for this purpose.
WARNING
IF THE PROTECTOR IS NOT INSTALLED, THE MACHINE
WILL NOT WORK.
1
If the machine is in the down position, loosen the upper
table level knobs (4), raise the upper table to its maximum
height and retighten the knobs (4).
2
Pull the pin (5) to unlock the head (F) and lift it to its
vertical position.
3
If the machine has a lower guard in place (2), remove it
and set it aside.
Cutting operation with the lower cutting table
Warning!
1
Respect the limits regarding the size and material of the
workpiece.
2
Use clamps to fasten the workpiece whenever possible.
3
Never lock the motor power switch when working with the
lower cutting table.

Preparation for horizontal angled cutting on the
lower table
To select the desired angle follow the steps below:
Mitre cutting (X axis = -45°/ +45°, Y axis = 90°)
Y
Mitre cutting occurs when the head stays in a vertical position,
perpendicular to the lower cutting table.
The head can rotate on its axis from -45° to +45°.
To adjust the mitre angle, loosen the angle selector screw (1)
and use the head's handle to rotate the lower cutting table (A)
to the desired angle.
Y
The lower cutting table has a plate that marks the angle on
the scale ruler of the lower table.
Once you have found the desired cutting angle, tighten the
angle selector screw (1).
In addition, the lower table is designed to allow easy angle
adjustment by intervals of 5°.
To take advantage of these pre-sets, loosen the screw (1).
The table will continue to rotate as you engage the head's
handle and will stop automatically when it reaches any of the
indicated angles, halting slightly at each angle and making a
characteristic noise until the head's handle is engaged again.

Bevel cutting (X axis = 90º, Y axis = -45° / 0°)
Y
Y
Bevel cutting occurs when the head tilts on its axis and no
longer remains perpendicular to the cutting table.
Bevel cutting occurs when the head tilts on its axis and no
longer remains perpendicular to the lower cutting table.
This tool only allows the head to swing to the left side.
Y
Before tilting the head, you must loosen the knob on the
lateral guide (14) in order to slide it out to facilitate the bevel
cut.
To adjust the bevel cut angle, loosen the head tilt knob (7) and
tilt the head to the desired angle. The machine is set to tilt to
-45° by default.
Y
Use the scale ruler located next to the knob (7) to fine-tune
the cutting angle.
Once you have found the bevel cutting angle, retighten the
knob (7).
Compound cutting (X axis = -45° / +45°, Y axis = -45° / 0°)
Y
Y
Compound cutting involves a combination of bevel and mitre
cutting angles. To find your compound cut, follow the steps
indicated for performing bevel and mitre cuts simultaneously.
Carrying out the cutting operation on the lower
table
1
Prepare workpiece by fastening it in a completely safe
manner.
2
Start the electrical machine by pushing switch.
3
Wait for some seconds until the cutting disk reaches its
maximum speed.
4
Slowly lower the operating head by a continuous manner
and without jerks, using hand grip.
5
Exert pressure in the blade's direction of advance with an
intensity being suitable for the material to be cut.
6
Once the cutting operation has been completed, raise
operating head again. Stop the machine by pushing
switch.
Using extension brackets (H) for long cuts
The tool includes 2 extension brackets for cutting long
workpieces (H).
The brackets are inserted into the slots (8) and fastened by
tightening the screw located on the lower table near the slots.
If the workpiece to be cut is long, users are required to use the
brackets for safety reasons.
Using the upper cutting table as a circular saw
Warning!
Before any operation on the upper cutting table, the machine
must be set up adequately.
