5. Operating Instructions

The Einhell TC-MS 2112 T offers both miter saw and table saw functionalities. Always select the appropriate mode for your cutting task.

5.1. Miter Saw Function

For cross-cutting and angle cuts on workpieces.

1. Adjusting Miter Angle: Loosen the locking knob for the turntable. Rotate the turntable to the desired angle (up to 45° left or right). Securely tighten the locking knob.
2. Adjusting Bevel Angle: Loosen the locking mechanism for the saw head. Tilt the saw head to the desired bevel angle (up to 45° to the left). Securely tighten the locking mechanism.
3. Positioning Workpiece: Place the workpiece firmly against the fence and the turntable. Use clamps if necessary.
4. Making the Cut: Depress the safety switch and then the main power switch. Allow the blade to reach full speed. Slowly lower the saw head through the workpiece. Once the cut is complete, release the power switch and allow the blade to stop before raising the saw head.

2. Adjusting Blade Height: Use the height adjustment knob to set the desired blade exposure above the table (0-33 mm).
3. Using Parallel Guide: Position the parallel guide to achieve the desired cutting width. Securely lock the guide in place.
4. Positioning Workpiece: Place the workpiece on the table, ensuring it is flat and against the parallel guide.
5. Making the Cut: Depress the safety switch and then the main power switch. Allow the blade to reach full speed. Using the push stick, slowly feed the workpiece through the blade. Never use your hands to push the workpiece directly into the blade.
