Note:
The screws for securing the auxiliary stops must
not protrude above the surface.
The auxiliary stops should be used only for 0°
mitre cuts.
The auxiliary stops should not affect the function
of the protective covers.

Horizontal mitre angles

You can set any horizontal mitre angle between 50°
(on the left) and 60° (on the right). Alternatively, you
can use the standard preset mitre angles.
The arrow on the pointer (14.1) indicates the cur-
rent horizontal mitre setting. The two marks on
the right and left of the pointer arrow allow you to
adjust the angle more accurately to half a degree.
The two marks must be congruent with the straight
lines on the scale.

cates the desired mitre angle. You can adjust the
vertical mitre angle more accurately using the
fi ne adjustment rotary handle (15.4).
– Close the clamping lever (15.1).
