5.10 Extractor socket (Fig. 1c)
The bandsaw is equipped with an extractor socket
(6) for extracting sawdust and chips. Connect the
bandsaw to a chip extraction system (not inclu-
ded in delivery) by connecting the hose of the
extraction system to the extractor socket (6).
5.11 Push stick holder (Fig. 16)
When not in use, the push stick (35) must always
be kept in the holder (36).
6. Operation
6.1 On/Off switch (Fig. 17)
•
To turn the saw on, press the green button „I".
•
To turn the saw off again, press the red button
„0".
•
Important! You can switch on the bandsaw
only when the upper and lower side covers
(12) are fully shut. Both side covers (12) have
a safety switch which must latch home with an
audible click.
6.2 Parallel stop (Fig. 18)
•
The parallel stop (24) can be mounted on the
saw table (15) to the left and right of the blade
(26).
•
Release the eccentric lever (21) and push the
parallel stop (24) sideways onto the saw table
(15).
•
The parallel stop (24) can be set to the requi-
red dimension with the help of the scale (23).
•
You can clamp the parallel stop (24) in the re-
quired position by pressing the eccentric lever
(21).
•
Caution! When you tension the eccentric
lever (21) always make sure it is pointing
downwards so as not to block the feeding of
the workpiece.
•
Important! You can increase the tension
of the parallel stop (24) if required. Proceed
as follows: Release the eccentric lever (21),
turn it one or more revolutions in clockwise
direction in order to increase the tension, then
secure the eccentric lever again.
•
Make sure that the parallel stop (24) is always
positioned parallel to the blade (26).
6.3 Angular cuts (Fig. 4)
To enable you to perform angular cuts parallel to
the blade (26), the table (15) can be tilted from 0°
to 45°.

•
Slacken the wing handle (18) and the quick-
lock lever (20).
•
Tilt the saw table (15) until the required angle
value is set on the angle scale (16).
•
Re-tighten the wing handle (18) and the
quick-lock lever (18).
•
Warning! Always secure the saw table with
both handles – the wing handle (18) and the
quick-lock lever (20).
•
Caution! With the saw table (15) tilted, place
the parallel stop (24) to the right of the blade
(26) looking in feeding direction on the side
pointing downwards (provided the workpiece
is wide enough) in order to stop the workpiece
from slipping off.
7. Operation
Warning!
•
After every new adjustment we recommend
you to make a trial cut in order to check the
new settings.
•
For all cutting operations it is important to
position the blade guide (11) as close as pos-
sible to the workpiece (see 5.5).
•
Always guide the workpiece with both hands,
holding it flat on the table (15) in order to pre-
vent the blade (26) from jamming.
•
Feed the workpiece at a uniform speed that
enables the blade to cut through the material
without difficulty and without blocking.
•
Use the parallel stop (24) on all cuts for which
it can be used.
•
It is better to make a complete cut in one
pass rather than in a stop-and-go operation in
which the workpiece might need to be pulled
back. If you have to pull back the workpiece
nevertheless, switch off the bandsaw first and
wait for the blade (26) to stop before pulling
the workpiece back.
•
The workpiece must always be guided by its
longest side during cutting.
Danger! When cutting narrow workpieces, it is
essential to use a push stick. The push stick (35)
must always be kept ready to hand in its holder
(36) on the side of the saw.
