4. Now use the 2 keys: one for the flange and one for
the nut and now clamp it.
5. Now put the inlay back in the bench and fasten it.
5. ADJUSTING THE CUT-OFF GUIDE
1. In order to adjust the cut-off fence the tension but-
ton must be loosened by one turn. In this way the
scale part can move freely. Place a protractor (90°)
against the contact side on the one hand and the di-
rection of sliding on the other hand. Now turn the
scale part in such a way that both sides of the pro-
tractor connect correctly. Now turn the tension
button back until it is fastened.
6. USE OF THE MITRING SET-UP
1. By turning the handle at the side of the machine you
can adjust the saw blade to a maximum of 45°.

5. WORKING INSTRUCTIONS

There are two types of sawing methods:
- Lengthwise sawing
Sawing the workpiece in the length of the wood
grain.
- Cross-cutting or cutting off
Sawing off the workpiece crosswise.
If it concerns a panel, we do not usually distinguish be-
tween the wood grain, but we name the method where
we saw off a part of the width of the panel (lengthwise
sawing) and when we cut off the length (cross-cutting
or cutting-off).
Note: For both sawing methods one of the fences must
be used. THEREFORE NEVER SAW WITHOUT A
FENCE!
ATTENTION! BEFORE YOU START SAWING,
FIRST CHECK THE FOLLOWING:
1. Is the saw blade secured?
2. Are all the locking handles secured?
3. Is the fence parallel to the saw blade?
4. Is the protective cap working properly?
5. Are you wearing safety goggles?
6. Is the saw blade not rubbing against anything?
It is ABSOLUTELY necessary to take these points into
consideration before you start work!
1. LENGTHWISE SAWING
1. Secure the fence to the correct measuring position
and remove the cut-off guide from the bench car-
riage.
2. Turn the saw blade approximately 2 mm higher
than the total thickness of the wood to be sawn.
3. Press the wood lightly towards the bench and let it
glide against the cut-off fence.

ATTENTION! REMAIN AT LEAST 3 CM FROM
THE FRONT OF THE SAW BLADE BEFORE YOU
SWITCH ON THE ENGINE. THE SIDE OF THE
WOOD WHICH IS AGAINST THE FENCE MUST
BE COMPLETELY STRAIGHT. KEEP YOUR
HANDS AT LEAST 10 CM AWAY FROM THE SAW
TRACK TO BE FOLLOWED.
4. Switch on the engine and wait until the saw blade
has reached the maximum number of revolutions
before you start sawing.
5. While you press the wood against the bench and
the fence, you can carefully push the wood through
the saw blade without forcing it.
6. Never pull the workpiece backwards. If necessary,
switch off the engine first WITHOUT altering the
position of the workpiece.
2. LENGTHWISE SAWING WITH A (VER-
TICAL) MITRE
This method is practically the same, except that the
saw blade is placed at the angle required.
ATTENTION! WITH THIS TYPE OF METHOD THE
FENCE MAY ONLY BE ALONG THE RIGHTHAND
SIDE OF THE SAW BLADE.
3. LENGTHWISE SAWING OF NARROW
WORKPIECES
Assume that this process is EXTREMELY DANGE-
ROUS. Take all the necessary safety measures and conti-
nually push the workpiece through (until behind the saw
blade) using a synthetic aid instead of by hand.
4. CROSSWISE SAWING
1. Remove the fence and apply the cross-cut fence in
the righthand carriage.
2. Adjust the height of the saw blade (see lengthwise
sawing).
3. Press the workpiece against the cross-cut fence
and keep at least 2,5 cm distance from the front of
the saw blade.
4. Switch on the engine and wait until the maximum
number of revolutions has been reached.
5. Press the workpiece against the fence and the ben-
ch. Carefully push the wood through the saw blade.
Continue until BEHIND the saw blade. Then
switch off the engine and keep this position until
the saw blade has stopped completely before you
remove the wood.
6. NEVER pull the wood back. If necessary, switch the
engine off and keep the position until the saw blade
has stopped completely.
5. CROSSWISE SAWING WITH A VERTI-
CAL MITRE
This method is practically the same, except that the
saw blade is placed in the angle required.
