# Preparing for operation

##

The free end of long workpieces must have something placed underneath it or be supported.

The saw table can be extended left and right using the saw table extensions (7).

- Push the clamping lever (50) inwards.
- Pull out the saw table extension (7) to the required length (maximum 250 mm).
- To lock the saw table extension in place, push the clamping lever (50) back out.

##

When sawing mitre and/or bevel angles, you have to pull the left-hand or right-hand adjustable fence (5) outwards depending on the cutting direction, or remove it completely.

Bevel angle | Mitre angle |
--- | --- | ---
0°–47° (left) | ≤ 44° (right/left) | Loosen the locking screw (51). Pull the left-hand adjustable fence (5) all the way out.
0°–47° (left) | ≥ 45° (right/left) | Loosen the locking screw (51). Pull the left-hand adjustable fence (5) all the way out. Lift the adjustable fence upwards and out of the way. Remove the locking screw (51).
0°–47° (right) | ≤ 44° (right/left) | Loosen the locking screw (51). Pull the right-hand adjustable fence (5) all the way out. Lift the adjustable fence upwards and out of the way.
0°–47° (right) | ≥ 45° (right/left)

##

The glide mechanism of the glide arm (27) is preset at the factory and is not damped when the power tool is delivered.

The damping of the glide mechanism can be adjusted using the damper (52):

Hard – for more controlled work movements;

Soft – for fast saw cuts.

- For softer damping, loosen the two set screws (53) using the hex key (4 mm) (16)
- or
- tighten the two set screws (53) for harder damping.

##

To ensure maximum safety while working, the workpiece must always be firmly clamped.
Do not saw workpieces that are too small to clamp firmly.

- Press the workpiece firmly against the fences (6) and (5).
- Insert the supplied screw clamp (18) into one of the corresponding holes (54).
- Loosen the wing bolt and adjust the screw clamp to the workpiece. Tighten the wing bolt again.
- Tighten the threaded rod (56) to fix the workpiece in place.

### Releasing the workpiece

- To loosen the screw clamp, turn the threaded rod (56) anticlockwise.
