m WARNING
Danger of injury for eyes due to swirling chips
• Wear protective goggles.
• Only operate the product with a suitable chip ex-
traction system. Do not use a common house-
hold vacuum cleaner.
1. Connect a suitable chip extraction system (not
included in the scope of delivery) to the extrac-
tion port (33).
2. Connect the extraction hose (34) of a suitable
chip extraction system (e.g. a multi-purpose vac-
uum cleaner) to the extraction port (33).
ATTENTION
Check and clean the extraction channels at regular
intervals.

9. Transport

The machine may only be transported with suitable
lifting devices (crane or fork lift). The connection point
for the rope (crane) is on the upper band wheel cabi-
net. Never lift from the saw bench. If the machine is to
be moved frequently within the work area, use of the
wheel assembly special accessory is recommended.

10. Working instructions

After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out
a trial cut in order to check the set dimensions. After
switching 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.
Make sure, that you select a saw blade that is appro-
priate for the material you intend to cut.
Connect the power tool to a dust reception facility
when cutting wood.
Do not use saw blades made out of high-speed steel
(HSS steel).
Use the push stick or the feed lever for sliding the
wood, to guide it safely past the saw blade.
In times of non-use keep the push stick or the push
block with the electrical power tool at all times.
Saw Blade – Diagonal Adjustment
• The saw blade may be swiveled from 90° to 45°
after the wing nut has been loosened.
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out
a trial cut in order to check the set dimensions.
Readjust the angle adjustment on the adjusting bolts

Saw Blade Height Adjustment
The saw blade is adjustable from 0 to 83 mm cutting
height after the wing nut has been loosened.
For safe and clean working, choose a minimal saw
blade projection for the workpiece.
Dem Spaltkeil wie im Bild 22 gezeigt einstellen.
Adjust the riving knife as shown in picture 22.
The riving knife is an important safety device which
guides the workpiece and prevents the cutting joint
from closing behind the saw blade and the workpiece
from being kicked backwards. Check the riving knife
thickness. The riving knife should never be thinner
than the body of the saw blade or thicker than the
cutting joint width.
Only use saw blades with a diameter of 315 mm and
a thickness of 2.4 mm (3.0 mm teeth).
Lower the suction hood onto the workpiece during every
working cycle. The hood must be positioned horizontal-
ly above the saw blade during every working cycle.
Length Cuts
Insert the length stop for parallel cuts.
Use the stop ruler with the high stop side for cuts
above 120 mm and the stop ruler with the low stop
side for cut widths under 120 mm.
Lead the workpiece with the push stick.
Diagonal Cuts
For diagonal and angle cuts, insert the cross-cutting
guide.
Operational Information
Working on circular saws
Cutting wide workpieces, Fig. 24
Width of the workpiece to be machined over 120 mm
Operating cycle: Adjust the ripping fence in accord-
ance with the width of the workpiece. Ensure that
your hands are resting in a safe place. The work-
piece may only be forward-fed in the tool area with
the right hand or with the aid of a push-stick if narrow
workpieces are cut off in the cutting process. Move
the fence back to the middle of the saw or use a
short auxiliary fence if there is a danger of the work-
piece being jammed between the circular sawblade,
the riving knife and the fence.
Only the upper suction hood has been left out in the
individual case in order to display the operating cycle
or device more clearly.
The upper suction hood is required for all of the op-
erating cycles.
Cutting narrow workpieces, Fig. 25
Be sure to use a push stick when making longitudinal
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.
