If adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
•
Loosen the lock nut (M) a few turns.
•
Turn the depth stop bolt (M) in or out as to
achieve the required cutting depth.
•
Tighten the lock nut (M).
Warning: Always adjust the depth stop to its
original position when replacing the cutting disc.

Press the lever (I) toward the jaw until it
engages with the clamp shaft.
•
Rotate the handle (H) clockwise and clamp
the workpiece securely.
