tighten firmly the bolts on the sawing table (c)
and on the support (d).
Clamping device for longitudinal fence, fig. 8

cer-head screws M 6 x 50, two washers 6 mm,
and two wing nuts M 6. Do not tighten!

through the square tube into the cross-cutting
gauge and tighten with washer 8 mm and handle.

a right angle to the saw blade using the hexagon
bolt (e). Use a right-angle gauge to this purpose,
and subsequently make a trial cut.

other. On the two crane bows, carrying belts can
be attached for supporting the machine on a crane.
Saw blade guard, fig. 12
• The saw blade guard is fitted ready for use.
