4. Loosen the end stop screw (22) and the counternut
(22a). Use an open-ended spanner AF 8/10 (A).
5. Turn the end stop screw (22) clockwise to lower the
end stop point or anti-clockwise to increase it.
6. Align the saw table (8) at right angles to the band saw
blade (6) using an angle bracket*, bring the end stop
screw (22) into the desired position and retighten the
lock nut (22a). Use an open-ended spanner AF 8/10 (A).

8.3 Use as a stationary machine
(Fig. 1)
The product must be mounted on a workbench for contin-
uous use.
• The product must be securely installed, i.e. bolted
down on a workbench or fixed machine stand.
• There are fixing holes in the foot (9) for this purpose.
1. Mark the drill holes.
– Place the product as it will be installed later.
– Mark the positions of the holes to be drilled on the
workbench.
These are given by the holes in the foot (9).
We recommend installing close to the edge.
2. Drill the holes (at least 8 mm diameter) through the
workbench.
3. Place the product over the drilled holes congruent with
the holes in the foot (9) and insert suitable screws*
through the holes from above and tighten them.

8.4 Extraction port set (17) (Fig. 1)
The product is equipped with an extraction port.
The suction nozzle (17) has three different diameters.
Connect a dust extractor when processing dusty materi-
als.
ATTENTION
The dust extraction system must be suitable for the ma-
terial to be processed.
Use a special extraction device to extract particularly
harmful or carcinogenic dusts.
1. Connect the hose of a suitable dust extraction sys-
tem* (e.g. industrial hoover) directly to the desired ex-
traction port set (17).
* = may not be included in the scope of delivery!
8.5 Push stick retainer (Fig. 10)
1. Fit the screw (I) with the nut (J) for the push stick re-
tainer to the frame (21).
Use a 5 mm Allen key (D) and an 8/10 mm open-end
spanner (A).
2. Attach the push stick (13) to the screw (I).
Note:
If unused, the push stick must always be stowed in the
push stick retainer.

• 1 x Allen key 3 mm* (B)
• 1 x Allen key 4 mm* (C)
• 1 x Allen key 5 mm* (D)
• 1 x Allen key 6 mm* (E)
* = may not be included in the scope of delivery!
9.1 Which band saw blade to use
Check that the tool attachment is fitted securely.
Tool attachments that are not fitted correctly or securely
may come loose during operation and injure you.
The band saw blade included in the scope of delivery is
intended for universal use. The following criteria should
be considered when selecting the band saw blade:
• It is possible to cut tighter radii with a narrow band
saw blade than with a wide band saw blade.
• Use wide band saw blades to perform straight cuts.
This is important in particular when cutting wood. The
band saw blade has a tendency to follow the wood
grain and therefore deviates easily from the desired
position.
• Fine-toothed band saw blades cut more smoothly, but
also more slowly than coarse band saw blades.
• Only use undamaged band saw blades that are in per-
fect condition. Band saw blades that are bent, blunt or
damaged in any other way can break.
9.2 Tensioning the band saw blade (6)
(Fig. 11)
ATTENTION
If the band saw is at a standstill for an extended period,
the band saw blade tension must be relieved, i.e. before
switching the band saw on it is necessary to check the
band saw blade tension.
1. To tension the band saw blade (6), turn the clamping
screw (2) clockwise.
Notes:
• The correct tension of the band saw blade can be de-
termined by pressing the finger laterally against the
band saw blade, roughly centrally between the two
band wheels. The band saw blade should only de-
press slightly (approx. 1-2 mm) here.
• The sufficiently tensioned band saw blade makes a
metallic sound when tapped.
• Relieve the band saw blade tension if it is not in use
for an extended time, so that it does not become over-
stretched.
ATTENTION
With high tension, the band saw blade may break.
