• Close the star button again when the distance be-
tween the blade and the 90° angle is at a minimum.
The bench should then be at 90° to the saw blade.
• Release the lock screw (D) and bring the indicator
to the zero position. Fasten the screw.
Please note: the angle scale is a useful piece of
supplementary equip ment, but should not be used
for precision work. Use scrap wood for saw tests,
adjust the bench if neces sary.
Note: The bench should not be on the motor
block, this can cause undesirable noise.
Horizontal saw bench and diagonal cuts,
fig. 2 + 3
• The saw bench can be positioned into a 450 di-
agonal position or be left in the horizontal position.
• You can read off the approximate slope angle
by using the angle scale located under the work
bench. For more exact adjustment, use scrap wood
for some saw tests; adjust the bench if necessary.
9.2 Blade guard assembly, fig. 4
Install the blade guard to the holder as shown in the
diagram. Secure the screws with a nut and washer.
• Lift the saw onto the frame and base and push it
onto the workbench.
• Familiarize yourself with the saw operating ele-
ments and features.
9.3 Changing the saw blades
Warning: Switch off the saw and remove the
mains supply plug before installing saw blades
in order to avoid injuries caused by unintentional
activation of the saw.
A. Flat saw-blades fig. 6
Use the adapter with flat saw-blades. The distance
results from the setting gauge.
The saw-blade is fixed with Allen screws.
A 1 Saw-blade removal, fig. 7 + 8, 10
• Extract the saw blade by sliding the table's inlay
up, then unscrew the tightening screw (1).
• Slightly press the upper arm (M) down (fig. 10).
• Then remove the saw blade by pulling it forward
out of the supports and through the access perfo-
ration in the table.
A 2 Inserting the saw-blade:
• Put the saw-blade with the two adapters into the
lower support, the other end into the upper sup-
port.
• Slightly press the upper arm (M) down (fig. 10) be-
fore hooking it in.
• Tighten the blade with the tightening screw (1) (fig.
7) by rotating it clockwise. Check the tightness of
the blade. Keep on rotating clockwise in order to
tighten the blade even more.
B. Saw-blade with pins
B 1 Saw blade removal, fig. 7 + 8
• Extract the saw-blade by first unscrewing the tight-
ening screw (1).
• Remove the saw-blade from the upper and lower
support by slightly pressing the saw´s upper arm
down (fig. 10, M).
B 2 Inserting the saw-blade, fig. 7, 9-11
• Lead one end of the saw-blade through the per-
foration in the table and insert the saw-blade pins
into the notch. Repeat this procedure at the upper
blade support.
• Before hooking it in, slightly press the saw´s upper
arm down. (fig. 9; No. 10)
• Check the position of the blade pins at the sup-
ports (fig. 11).
• Tighten the blade by means of the tightening
screw. Check the blade´s tightness. Keep on ro-
tating clockwise in order to tighten the blade even
more. (fig. 7).
9.4 Chip extraction
ATTENTION: Only operate the device with an extrac-
tion system.
Connect a suitable chip extraction system (not includ-
ed in the scope of delivery) to the suction connection.
ATTENTION: Check and clean the suction channels
at regular intervals.
10. Operation
10.1 General information
• The saw does not cut wood automatically. Rather,
the operator must push and guide the wood toward
the moving saw blade.
• The teeth only cut the wood on the downstroke.
• The wood must be slowly pushed and guided to-
ward the saw blade, since the teeth of the blade
are very small.
• Those who want to use the saw must go through
the process of learning how to do so. During this
time, a few blades will invariably break.
• When cutting thicker wood, special attention must
be paid not to bend or twist the saw blade.
• Handling the saw blade properly increases its ser-
vice life.
10.2 On/off switch (16)
• Switching on: Press the "I" button.
• Switching off: Press the "0" button.
ATTENTION
The machine is equipped with a safety switch against
reactivation if the voltage drops.
