Sawbench
Fig."13"
The saw bench is set at the factory.
The continuous saw bench swing range reaches
trom + 47° to - 20°.
The greatest swing range allows 45° mitered cuts.
The setting must be carried out while the ma-
chine is at a tull stop!
One can readjust the bench at a 90° angle to the
sawband using the setting screw (1) under the
bench. (Use a square as an aid)!
Table adjustment to + 47°
• Loosen both lock levers (2).
• Tum the handle (3) clockwise.
• Re-tighten the lock handles (2) in the
desired position according to the scale.
Table adjustment to - 20°
• Loosen both lock levers (2).
• Tum the handle (3) one quarter revolution
to the right and swing the adjustment
screw (1) on the ball handle to the lett.
• Tum the handle (3) counterclockwise.
Prepare the workplace where the machine is to be
placed. Insure sufficient room to allow safe work
without malfunctions. The machine is designed to

The following recommendations are examples
of the safe use of band saws.
The following safe working methods should be
seen as an aid to safety. They cannot be applied
suitably completely or comprehensively to every
use. They cannot treat every possible dangerous
condition and must be interpreted carefully.
• Connect the machine to a suction unit when
working in closed rooms. A suction device which
conforms with commercial regulations must be
used for suction in commercial areas.
• Loosen the sawband when the machine is not in
operation (e.g. after finishing work). Attach a noti-
ce on the tension of the saw band to the machine
for the next user.
• Collect unused sawbands and store them safely
in a dry place. Check for faults (teeth, cracks)
before use. Do not use faulty sawbands!
• Wear suitable gloves when handling sawbands.
• All protective and safety devices must be securely
mounted on the machine before beginning work.
• Never clean the sawband or the sawband guide

Test the exact angle setting of the table with a
sampie piece before beginning work.
Parallel alignment of the sawband
to the saw bench
Fig. „14"
Exact parallel alignment is especially important
for work with the traverse cutting gauge special
accessory.
Check parallel alignment with the fence rail and a
low angle.
Place the fence rail on the saw band running
upwards and downwards. Place the low angle
on the fence rail as weil as along the longitudinal
groove.
If there are deviations, loosen the 8 hexagonal
nuts of the table attachment swinging segment and
readjust the saw bench appropriately.
Re-tighten the hexagonal nuts firmly!

At least 2 persons are required to lower the
machine from the pallet. Starting in the working
position, tip the machine to the left and pull out the
pallet to the right.
with a hand-held brush or scraper while the saw-
band is running. Resin-covered sawbands impair
working safety and must be cleaned regularly.
• For your own protection, wear protective glasses
and hearing protection. Wear a hairnet if you
have long hair. Roll up loose sleeves over the
elbows.
• Always position the sawband guide as near the
workpiece as possible when working.
• Insure sufficient lighting in the work area and
around the machine.
• Always use the fence for straight cuts to keep the
workpiece from tipping or slipping away.
• When working on narrow workpieces with manual
feed, use the push stick.
• For diagonal cuts, place the saw bench in the
appropriate position and guide the workpiece on
the fence.
• To cut dove-tails and dove-tailed tenons or
wedges swing the saw bench to the plus or minus
position. Insure safe workpiece guidance.
• For arced and irregular cuts, push the workpiece
