4.2 Chip extraction

Connect the machine to a suitable external dust
extractor during all work generating a considerable
amount of dust. The air velocity must be at least 20
m/s (65.6 ft / sec.).
The internal diameter of hose connector 3 (Fig. 1) is
35 mm ( 1 3/8 in.).

4.3 Saw blade selection

Use a sharp tool to obtain a good cut quality and
select a tool from the following list according to
material and application:
For cuts along and across the grain in soft or
hard wood:
- TCT circular saw blade Ø 230 x 2.5 x 30 mm ( 9
1/16 x 3/32 in. x 30mm ), 24 teeth
For cuts especially along the grain in soft or hard
wood:
- TCT circular saw blade Ø 230 x 2.5 x 30 mm ( 9
1/16 x 3/32 in. x 30mm ), 12 teeth
For cuts especially across the grain in soft or
hard wood:
- TCT circular saw blade Ø 230 x 2.6 x 30 mm ( 9
1/16 x 7/64 in. x 30mm ), 56 teeth
