4. Configuració
Proper assembly and initial adjustments are crucial for safe and accurate operation.
4.1 Muntatge
The saw requires some assembly upon arrival. Follow the detailed instructions in the separate assembly guide provided with your product. Pay close attention to the installation of the top table and ensure all components are securely fastened. Some users have reported initial stiffness or difficulty with the top table mechanism; ensure all locking pins and adjustment levers are correctly engaged and lubricated if necessary.
4.2 Initial Adjustments and Calibration
- Calibrate Angles: Before first use, calibrate the vertical and horizontal cutting angles to ensure precision. Use a reliable protractor or square to verify the 90-degree and 45-degree stops.
- Adjust Parallel and Angular Guides: For top table operation, adjust the parallel guide to the desired cutting width. For miter cuts, set the angular guide on the swivel table to the required angle.
- Saw Head Tilt: The saw head can be tilted up to 45° to the left for bevel cuts. Ensure it is securely locked at the desired angle before operation.

5. Instruccions de funcionament
The Einhell TC-MS 3017 T offers two primary modes of operation: miter saw and top table saw.
5.1 Miter Saw Operation
- Ensure the saw is in miter saw configuration, with the top table lowered and secured.
- Place the workpiece firmly against the fence and secure it with the workpiece clamp.
- Set the desired miter angle on the swivel table and lock it.
- If a bevel cut is required, tilt the saw head to the desired angle (up to 45° left) and lock it.
- Start the motor. Allow the blade to reach full speed before beginning the cut.
- Slowly lower the saw head through the workpiece, maintaining a steady, controlled motion.
- Un cop finalitzat el tall, deixeu anar el gallet i deixeu que la fulla s'aturi completament abans d'aixecar el capçal de la serra.
- Maximum cutting capacity for miter cuts is 170 x 85 mm.

5.2 Top Table Saw Operation
- Convert the saw to top table configuration by raising and securing the top table. Ensure the miter saw head is locked in its uppermost position.
- Adjust the parallel guide to the desired cutting width.
- Place the workpiece on the top table, ensuring it is flat and stable.
- Engegueu el motor.
- Carefully feed the workpiece into the blade, keeping it firmly against the parallel guide. Use a push stick for narrow pieces.
- Mantenir una velocitat d'alimentació constant.
- Once the cut is complete, turn off the motor and wait for the blade to stop before removing the workpiece.
- Maximum cutting capacity for top table cuts is 85 mm.
