mitre saw stand. Use four 

screws or bolts (not included) 

to secure.

Trenching refers to restricting the depth of cut and permits a “trench” 

to be cut in the workpiece.

Bevel Angle Adjustment

Trenching

1.   Ensure the cutting  head is 

raised, move the trenching 

stop to the right as far as it 

will go.

2.   To adjust the trenching 

depth rotate the trenching 

depth adjustment screw.

3.   To check that the blade 

stops at the desired position, 

lower the cutting head 

until the trenching stop 

adjustment screw touches 

the trenching stop.

4.   When the correct depth is 

set. Lock it in position using 

the trenching depth lock nut.

Slide Lock

When cutting a narrow piece of 

wood it is not necessary to use 

the slide mechanism. In these 

circumstances, push back the 

cutting head and ensure the slide 

locking knob is tight to prevent the 

cutting head from sliding.

To ensure the saw is standing securely when not mounting to a 

workbench or mitre saw stand. Screw the Additional Support Feet 

to the feet of  the mitre saw with the fasteners provided. Then swing 

out the Stabilising Bar to the rear until it engages.
