Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 20)
Be sure to use a push stick (14) when making longitudi-
nal cuts in workpieces smaller than 120 mm in width. A
push block is supplied with the saw! Replace a worn or
damaged push stick immediately.
• Adjust the parallel stop to the width of workpiece you
require.
• Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always use the
push stick (14) in the area of the saw blade.
• Always push the workpiece through to the end of the
splitter.
m Caution! With short workpieces, use the push stick
from the beginning.
Making angular cuts (Fig. 21)
Angular cuts must always be made using the parallel
stop (13).
- Set the blade to the desired angle.
- Set the parallel stop (13) in accordance with the work-
piece width and height
- Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece
width.
Making cross cuts (Fig. 22)
- Push the transverse stop (7) into the groove (32) of
the saw table and set it to the required angle.
- Use the stop rail.
- Press the workpiece rmly against the cross stop (7).
- Switch on the saw.
- Push the cross stop (7) and the workpiece toward the
blade in order to make the cut.
- Important:
Always hold the guided part of the workpiece.
Never hold the part which is to be cut off.
- Push the cross stop (7) forward until the workpiece is
cut all the way through.
- Switch off the saw again. Do not remove the offcut
until the blade has stopped rotating.
Cutting particle boards
To prevent the cutting edges from cracking when work-
ing with particle boards, you should not set the saw
blade (3) more than 5mm greater than the thickness of
the workpiece.
Transport
1. Turn off the power tool before any transport and
disconnect it from the power supply.
2. Apply the power tool at least with two people, do
not touch the table extensions.
3. Protect the power tool from knocks, bumps and
strong vibrations, such as during transport in vehi-
cles.
4. Secure the power tool against overturning and slid-
ing.
5. Never use the safety devices for handling or trans-
porting purposes.
Maintenance
m Warning! Prior to any adjustment, maintenance or
service work disconnect the mains power plug!
General maintenance measures
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor hous-
ing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the
equipment with a clean cloth or blow it down with com-
pressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the equipment imme-
diately after you use it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a damp cloth and
some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents or sol-
vents; these may be aggressive to the plastic parts in
- Tighten the wing nuts (28) again.
- The stop rail (30) can be applied to the left or right of
the guide rail (29) as needed. To this end, only install
the bolts from the other side of the guide rail (29).
Setting the cutting width (g. 17)
- The rip fence (13) must be used for longitudinal cut-
ting of wood parts.
- The rip fence (13) should be mounted on the right
side of the saw blade (3).
- Place the parallel stop (13) onto the saw table in a
downwards direction.
- The parallel stop (13) can be set to the required di-
mension with the aid of the scale on the saw table.
- Clamp the parallel stop (13) securely with the lever
(31).
Transverse stop (g. 18)
- Push the transverse stop (7) into a groove (32) of the
saw bench.
- Loosen the handle screw (35).
- Turn the cross stop (7) until the desired angle is set.
The arrow on the transverse stop is at the set angle.
- Tighten the knurled screw (35) again.
- The stop bar (33) can be moved on the transverse
stop (13). Loosen the nuts (34) and push the stop
rail (33) to the desired position. Tighten the nuts (34)
again.
Caution!
- Do not push the stop rail (33) too far towards the saw
blade.
- The distance between the stop rail (33) and saw blade
(3) should be about 2 cm.
Operation
Working instructions
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out a
trial cut in order to check the set dimensions. After switch-
ing on the saw, wait for the blade to reach its maximum
speed of rotation before commencing with the cut.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end of
the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.)
Take extra care when starting the cut!
Never use the equipment without the suction function.
Regularly check and clean the suction channels.
Making longitudinal cuts (g. 19)
Longitudinal cutting (also known as slitting) is when you
use the saw to cut along the grain of the wood.
Press one edge of the workpiece against the parallel stop
(13) while the at side lies on the saw table (1). The blade
guard (4) must always be lowered over the workpiece.
When you make a longitudinal cut, never adopt a work-
ing position that is in line with the cutting direction.
- Set the parallel stop (13) in accordance with the work-
piece height and the desired width.
- Switch on the saw.
- Place your hands (with ngers closed) at on the
workpiece and push the workpiece along the parallel
stop (13) and into the blade (3).
- Guide at the side with your left or right hand (depend-
ing on the position of the parallel stop) only as far as
the front edge of the saw blade guard (4).
- Always push the workpiece through to the end of the
splitter (6).
- The offcut piece remains on the saw table (1) until the
blade (3) is back in its position of rest.
- Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end
of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.) (e.g. roller table
etc.)
