46
ACAUTION
There is a risk of crushing your fin- gers between the tilt lock lever and the track arm holder. Always posi- tion the tilt lock lever (by pulling it out and turning) so that there is suf- ficient space between the lock lever and the track arm holder.
The track arm holder has preset stops and engages at the 0°, 22.5°, and 45° positions.
AWARNING
Ensure all setting devices are fully tightened before making a cut.
Once you have found your desired tilt angle, TIGHTEN THE TILT LOCK LEVER (46) before starting to cut, so that the angle setting does not change,
even if you are using one of the pre- set stops at 0°, 22.5 °, or 45°.
7. Initial Operation
7.1Connection of a Dust Col- lector
AWARNING
Some types of wood dust (e.g. maple, oak, cedar) may cause aller- gic reactions and other health prob- lems, including but not limited to skin rashes and other skin prob- lems. If possible, work with a suita- ble dust collector connected to the saw. The dust collector must comply with the data stated in chapter 15, entitled "Technical Specifications".
Dust spout adapter installation
ξBefore a dust collector can be con- nected, the dust spout adapter (47), which comes with the machine, must be installed on the machine by pushing it into its holder as illus- trated.
