MAINTENANCE OF THE CROSSCUT AND MITRE SAW
Before starting any work on the saw always pull the plug from the socket.
!
• The replacement carbon brushes (d) supplied may only be changed and fitted at an authorised repair centre.
• Clean the crosscut and mitre saw frequently. For the best results do this straight after the work has been completed.
• Do not allow liquids to get inside the saw. Use a soft cloth for cleaning the housing. Do not use petrol, solvents or cleaners
that might attack the plastic.

TIPS AND TRICKS

• If you often wish to use the saw in a lot of different places we recommend that you mount it on a 20mm thick plywood base. You can carry
the saw easily on this and attach it to many kinds of surfaces.
• Never position curved workpieces in such a way that they curve away from the stop plate. This creates a gap between the stop plate
and the workpiece, which could lead to the workpiece jamming during the cut.
• Cut a curved workpiece initially a little longer / larger than necessary and only after this should you cut it to the exact length required.
A large curve is always detrimental to accuracy.
• To improve safety, mount an additional wooden guide (75 x 500 x 12 mm) on the saw. There are some suitable holes provided on the stop
plate for this.
Further practical tips for power tools can be found in the accompanying booklet on safety advice.
