9.3 Setting the angle (Fig. 14)
With the table saw you can make diagonal cuts to the
left oriented to the stop bar from 0 ° to 45 °.
m Check before each cut, that between the stop bar
(e), cross-stop (13) and the saw blade (5) a collision is
not possible.
- Undo the fixing handle (13).
- Set the desired angle on the scale by pressing and
turning the hand wheel (12).
- Lock the fixing handle (13) again in the required angle
position.
9.4 Working with the rip fence
9.4.1 Setting the stop height (figs. 15-16)
- The stop rail (27) of the rip fence (15) has two guide
surfaces with different heights.
- Depending on the thickness of the material to be cut,
the stop rail (27) as shown in fig. 16 must be used for
thick material (about 25 mm workpiece thickness) and
that shown in fig. 15 for thin material (less than 25 mm
workpiece thickness).
9.4.2 Turning the stop rail (figs. 15-16)
- Loosen the wing nuts (28) first for rotating the stop rail
(27).
- Now, the stop rail (27) can be removed from the guide
rail (29) and pushed over it again using the correspon-
ding guide.
- Tighten the wing nuts (28) again.
- The stop rail (27) 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).
9.4.3 Setting the cutting width (fig. 17)
- The rip fence (15) must be used for longitudinal cut-
ting of wood parts.
- The rip fence (15) should be mounted on the right
side of the saw blade (3).
- Set the rip fence (15) on top of the guide rail for rip
fence (14).
- On the guide rail for rip fence (14), there are 2 scales
which indicate the distance between the rip fence (15)
and the saw blade (3).
- Select the appropriate scale depending on whether
the stop rail (27) is rotated for processing thick or thin
material:
High stop rail (thick material):
Low stop rail (thin material):
- Set the rip fence (15) to the desired level in the sight
glass and fix it with the eccentric lever for the rip fence
(30).
9.5 Transverse stop (fig. 18)
- Push the transverse stop (13) into a groove (31) of the
saw bench.
- Loosen the handle screw (32).
- 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 (32) again.
- The stop bar (34) can be moved on the transverse
stop (13). Loosen the nuts (33) and push the stop
rail (34) to the desired position. Tighten the nuts (34)
again.
Caution!
- Do not push the stop rail (34) too far towards the saw
blade.
- The distance between the stop rail (34) and saw blade
(3) should be about 2 cm.

10. 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.
Suitability of the saw blades:
- 24 teeth: soft materials, large chip depth, coarse cut
profile
- 48 teeth: hard materials, small chip depth, fine cut
profile
10.1 Making longitudinal cuts (Figure 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
(15) while the flat 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 (15) in accordance with the work-
piece height and the desired width. (See 9.4)
- Switch on the saw.
- Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on the
workpiece and push the workpiece along the parallel
stop (15) 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.)
10.1.1 Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 20)
Be sure to use a push stick (9) when making longitudinal
cuts in workpieces smaller than 120 mm in width. A push
block is supplied with the saw! Replace a worn or dam-
aged push stick immediately.
• Adjust the parallel stop to the width of workpiece you
require. (see 9.4)
• Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always use the
push stick (9) 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.
10.1.2 Making angular cuts (Fig. 21)
Angular cuts must always be made using the parallel
stop (15).
- Set the blade to the desired angle. (See 9.3)
- Set the parallel stop (15) in accordance with the work-
piece width and height (see 9.4)
- Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece
width (see 10.1).
