applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained,
the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly in-
crease the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working pe-
riod.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work pat-
terns.

Assembly
 Avoid unintentional starting of the machine. During as-
sembly and for all work on the machine, the power plug
must not be connected to the mains supply.
Delivery Scope
Please also observe the representation of
the delivery scope at the beginning of the op-
erating instructions.
Before starting the operation of the machine
for the first time, check if all parts listed be-
low have been supplied:
– Mitre saw with mounted saw blade
– Dust bag 19
– Material clamp 27
– Hex key 24
– Tilt protector 25 with fastening screws 32
Note: Check the power tool for possible damage.
Before further use of the machine, check that all protective
devices are fully functional. Any lightly damaged parts must
be carefully checked to ensure flawless operation of the tool.
All parts must be properly mounted and all conditions fulfilled
that ensure faultless operation.
1 609 92A 109 | (30.4.15)
Damaged protective devices and parts must be immediately
replaced by an authorised service centre.
Mounting Individual Components
– Carefully remove all parts included in the delivery from
their packaging.
– Remove all packaging material from the machine and the
accessories provided.
– For easier working when mounting the supplied product
features, please observe that the machine is in the trans-
port position.
Mounting the Tilt Protector (see figure A)
Before using the power tool for the first time, the tilt protector
25 must be mounted.
– Turn the power tool over and place it carefully on the blade
guard 4 and the saw table 12.
– Insert the tilt protector 25 into the mounting holes provid-
ed in the base plate until the threaded holes of tilt protec-
tor and base plate are flush.
– Insert the fastening screws 32 into the threaded holes and
tighten them using the hex key 24 provided.
– Turn the power tool over so that it is back in the correct po-
sition for working.
 Never remove the tilt protector. Without the use of the
tilt protector, the machine does not stand safely and can
tip over, especially when sawing at maximum mitre/bevel
angles.
Mounting to a Working Surface (see figure B)
– Fasten the power tool with suitable screw fasteners to the
working surface. The mounting holes 8 serve for this pur-
pose.
Dust/Chip Extraction
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some
wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's
health. Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic
reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered as
carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment
additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials contain-
ing asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Always use dust extraction.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-
rials to be worked.
The dust/chip extraction can be blocked by dust, chips or
workpiece fragments.
– Switch the machine off and pull the mains plug from the
socket outlet.
– Wait until the saw blade has come to a complete stop.
– Determine the cause of the blockage and correct it.
