• Lock the rail lock knob with the saw head in the front position, lock the
mitre arm in the utter right mitre angle, slide the fence (3) completely
inward and lock the bevel lever (11) with the saw head in the vertical
position to make the tool as compact as possible.
• Always use the hand indentations (31) shown in fig. B2 to transport the saw.
