Metabo KGS216M 1500 W 240 V 216 mm Sliding Mitre Saw

Product Information

The most noticeable feature of this mitre saw is its versatility. This saw can cut various materials including wood, plastic, and coated panels up to different widths and depths and in different shapes.

The first most important factor you must consider is the quality of the blade of the saw. Good quality blades give you a fine and smooth cut. Blades that are not of good quality can damage the material. They also give inaccurate cutting and do not last for a long time. One of the benefits of Metabo not using such heavy gauge aluminium is the overall reduction in weight. Even though this saw takes up almost as much space, it’s much lighter than the Bosch. Coming in at 13.5 kg, it’s much easier to carry around using the big top handle. Verify that the folding blade guard is functioning properly. It should move freely and automatically cover the saw blade when the saw is folded up to the starting position. It should also allow unobstructed access to the saw blade without touching other parts when folded down. Because of the sliding and bevelling features on this saw, Metabo have been forced to construct the fence in two pieces. The top half slides out of the way to allow the blade to pass by, but it means the fence is thin and a bit wobbly. Compared with the solid sliding fence on the Bosch GCM8SJL it’s not the best.

Why You Can Trust DIY Garden

Already know basics? Jump on the third step. We would recommend reading the manual to have some knowledge about the mitre saw. Adjustable and extendable table width extensions, removable to put long panels, slabs etc. underneath. I immediately came across a bit of a problem. Supplied with the saw is a hex key with a Philips head screwdriver on one end. This works if you want to adjust the fence or change the blade but manipulating the laser guide and angle indicators was another matter entirely.

Verify the rotation direction of the saw blade. When viewed from the left (open) side, the arrow on the saw blade should correspond to the direction indicated by the arrow on the blade guard. Ensure that the saw blade is securely tightened and does not vibrate or become unbalanced during use. Tighten the tension screw firmly using the supplied hex key. Svorka je nepoužitelný klump - nelze přitáhnout, nedrží a povoluje - na pravé straně je navíc její poloha limitována samotným motorem pily, který s ní v 90% koliduje

To adjust the laser, you’ll need to undo a tiny grub screw with a hex key. Unfortunately, it’s a bit of an odd size at 2.5 mm, and I don’t have half sizes on my normal set. The next issue was when I tried to adjust the angle indicators. These are held in place with T20 size Torx head screws, which again aren’t included. Nemá délkový doraz, při řezání více menších kusů stejných rozměrů (řezal jsem asi 180 kusů dubových pásků 20x5mm a 15x5mm) je to na hlavu a je nutno si pomoct jinakAlong with all the above-mentioned features, this Metabo saw also features a working light for good vision in low light. With the help of this light, it helps you to work even in dark properly.

The first test of the performance of this mitre saw is to find out how well it came set up from the factory. The next challenge is finding out how easy it is to adjust the angles and the laser guide if it’s not perfectly set up.
