Working with the Parallel Stop

Adjusting the Stop Height

(Figures 22 and 24)
- The stop rail (39) of the parallel stop (6) has two guide
surfaces at different heights.
- Depending on the thickness of the materials to be cut, the
stop rail (39) has to be used differently. For thin material
(workpiece thickness less than 25 mm), use Figure 22. For
thick material (workpiece thickness more than 25 mm), use
Figure 24.

Turning the Stop Rail

(Figures 22 and 24)
nuts (h).
- Now the stop rail (39) can be pulled off the guide rail (16)
and pushed back over it again with the groove.
- Tighten the knurled nuts (h) again.

Adjusting the Cutting Width

(Figures 25-26)
- When wooden pieces are being cut lengthwise, the parallel
stop (6) has to be used.
- The parallel stop should be mounted on the right-hand side
of the saw blade (4).
- Insert the parallel stop into the side of the guide rail (16)
(Figure 26).
- On the guide rail for the parallel stop (6) there are 2 scales
(j/k). These show the distance between the stop rail (39) and
saw blade (4) (Figure 25).
- Select the suitable scale according to whether the stop rail
(39) has been turned around for working with thick or thin
material:
High stop rail (thick material): scale (j)
Low stop rail (thin material): scale (k)
- Adjust the parallel stop (6) to the desired level on the sight

Adjusting the Stop Length

(Figure 27)
- In order to prevent the material being cut from jamming, the
stop rail (39) can be moved in the longitudinal direction.
- Rule of thumb: the rear end of the stop abuts on an imagi-
nary line. This begins at about the middle of the saw blade
and runs towards the back at an angle of 45°.
- Adjust the required cutting width.
- Release the knurled nuts (h) and push the stop rail (39) for-
ward until the imaginary 45° line is touched.
- Tighten the knurled nuts (h) again.

Adjusting the Parallel Stop

(Figure 28)
- Caution! Remove the guard.
- Adjust the saw blade (4) to the maximum cutting depth.
- Adjust the parallel stop (6) such that the stop rail (39)

touches the saw blade (adjustment for thick material.
- If the parallel stop (6) is not parallel to the saw blade (4),
please proceed as follows. Release the screws (m) on the
parallel stop until the parallel stop (6) can be aligned to be
parallel with the saw blade (4) (Figure 28).
- Retighten the screws (m).

Transverse stop

(Figure 29)
- When the wood is being cut to size, the transverse stop (40)
must be extended with the stop rail (39) of the parallel stop
(6) (Figure 29)
- Push the transverse stop (40) into a groove (33) of the saw
table.
- Loosen the knurled screw (34).
- Turn the transverse stop (40) until the desired angle is set.
The notch on the guide bar shows the angle that has been
set.
- Retighten the knurled screw (34).
- In order to extend the transverse stop (40) with the stop rail
(39), the stop rail (39) has to be removed from the parallel
stop (6). Now the stop rail has to be mounted as shown in
Figure 29; use the knurled nuts (31) for this purpose.
Caution!
- Do not push the stop rail (39) too far in the direction of the
saw blade.
- The distance between the stop rail (39) and saw blade (4)
should be approximately 2 cm.

Adjusting the Scale of the Transverse Stop

(Figure 29 and 30)
- Create a 90° stop angle with respect to the saw blade (4).
- Connect the transverse stop (40) to the stop rail (39) of the
parallel stop 6) (see also Transverse Stop).
- Loosen the knurled nuts (31) of the transverse stop (40).
- Position the transverse stop (40) so that the stop rail is at an
angle of 90° to the saw blade (4). Now align the transverse
stop with the help of the 90° angle exactly to the saw blade
and tighten the knurled nuts (31) again.
- Check whether the transverse stop shows exactly 90°. If this
is not the case, please proceed as follows:
- Release the two screws with which the scale of the transverse
stop (40) is attached to it. Now the scale can be adjusted to
the correct position.
- Now retighten the screws.

Angle Adjustment

(Figure 29 and 3)
With the table circular saw it is possible to make bevel cuts to
the left at an angle of 0° to 45° to the stop rail. Before each cut,
make sure that no collision is possible between the stop rail (39),
cross-cutting gauge and the saw blade (4).
- Release the locking handle (9)
- Turn the handwheel (11) to set the desired angle on the
scale (10).
- Lock the locking handle (9) in the desired angular position.
