ASSEMBLY OF THE BENCH SAW ON THE
WORKBENCH
Fig.B & C
Before adjusting the saw, make sure the plug is
removed from the socket.
Fig. B shows the distance of the holes to be drilled in the
workbench on which to fasten the machine. Drill holes
of 8 mm.
Only use the machine after it has been assembled
completely and it has been screwed onto the
workbench or the frame.
• Fig. C shows the part to be sawn out (310 x 310 mm),
so that the sawdust can fall through it and piling up is
prevented!
Only if you do not use an extraction system!
• Fasten the machine with bolts.
If the frame is used, it must be fixed on the floor with
four screws and the machine must be fixed on the
frame with four screws. Check the screws before
switching the machine on.
ASSEMBLY AND ATTACHMENT OF THE RIP
FENCE
Fig.D
• Attach the aluminium fence (A) to the positioning
block (B).
• Now you can attach the complete rip fence to the
bench top.
• Slide the rip fence via one end of the positioning rail
(C) over the bench top.
• By turning the handle (D) tightly, the rip fence can be
fixed in the desired position.
• Adjust the position of the aluminium fence profile (A)
such that the end corresponds to the rear edge of the
saw.
ASSEMBLY OF THE RIVING KNIFE AND OF
THE PROTECTIVE CAP
Fig.E
• Turn the saw blade completely upwards.
• Remove the bench inlay.
• Assemble the riving knife on the set-up for this
purpose and use hereby the Allen screws and the
filling rings. Ensure that the riving knife falls properly
into the opening (= groove).
• Now put the inlay back in the bench and fasten it.
• Now assembly the protective cap onto the riving
knife and use hereby the profiled nut and self-locking
nut.
Now lay a lath against the saw blade and the riving
knife and check whether it falls properly into the
extension of the saw blade. If this is not the case: Loosen the
fastening bolts and place or remove the filling rings.
• Above the saw table the radial distance between the
riving knife and the toothed rim of the saw blade shall
not at any point exceed 5 mm at the depth of cut set.
• The tip of the riving knife shall not be lower than 5
mm from the tooth peak, as shown.

ASSEMBLY OF THE SAW BLADE
First remove the plug from the mains before the
saw blade is assembled or replaced.
• Remove the inlay from the bench. Use a screwdriver
for this purpose.
• Turn the saw axle completely upwards. Remove the
nut and the outside flange from the saw axle.
• Now slide the saw blade over the saw axle and now
put the outside flange and the nut back. Tighten the
nut by hand.
• Now use the 2 keys: one for the flange and one for
the nut and now clamp it.
• Now put the inlay back in the bench and fasten it.
MOUNTING THE PUSH STICK HOLDERS
Mount both push stick holders (no.130) on the side of
the machine using the bolts and rings supplied (nos.127,
128 and 129).
ASSEMBLY AND ATTACHMENT OF THE
CROSSCUT GUIDE
Fig.D
• Before you can use the crosscut guide, the fence (A)
must be attached to the guide block (B).
• To adjust the crosscut guide, loosen the locking knob
(E). This allows you set the correct cut angle. By
tightening the locking knob, the cut angle is fixed.
USE OF THE MITRING SET-UP
By turning the handle at the side of the machine you can
adjust the saw blade to a maximum of 45°.

OPERATION

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
between 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).
For both sawing methods one of the fences must be
used. Therefor 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!
