9. Using the saw
9.1 On/Off switch (Fig. 14)
- The saw can be switched on by pressing the green
pushbutton (11) „I".
- The red pushbutton (11) „0" has to be pressed to
switch off the saw.
9.2 Cutting depth (Fig. 14)
Turn the round handle (8) to set the blade to the re-
quired cutting depth.
- Turn anti-clockwise: larger cutting depth
- Turn clockwise: smaller cutting depth
-
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out a
trial cut in order to check the set dimensions.
9.3 Setting the angle (Fig. 14)
With the table saw you can make diagonal cuts to the
left oriented to the stop bar from 0 ° to 45 °.
m Check before each cut, that between the stop bar
(e), cross-stop (13) and the saw blade (5) a collision is
not possible.
- Loose the fixing handle (9).
- Set the required angle on the scale.
- Lock the fixing handle (9) again in the required angle
position.
9.4 Working with the rip fence
9.4.1 Setting the fence height (Fig. 15)
- The fence rail (25) of the rip fence (7) has two guiding
surfaces with different heights.
- Depending on the thickness of the material to be cut,
the higher side of the fence rail (25) has to be used
for thick material (work piece thickness above 25 mm)
and the lower side of the fence rail for thin material
(work piece thickness below 25 mm).
- For the adjustment, loosen the bolts on the side of the
rip fence (7) and push the fence rail (25) on the guide,
depending on the required position.
- Tighten the bolts again.
9.4.2 Rip fence assembly (Fig. 16)
- Fix the rip fence (7) by placing it at the back and
pulling the locking lever (23) down.
- For disassembly, pull the locking lever up and remove
the rip fence (7).
- The locking force of the rip fence can be set with the
rear knurled nut.
9.4.3 Setting the cutting width (Fig. 17)
- The rip fence (7) must be used for lengthwise cutting
of wood.
- Place the rip fence (7) on the guide rail (12) to the
right or left of the saw blade.
- On the guide rail for the rip fence (12) there are 2 sca-
les (27/28) which display the gap between the fence
rail (25) and the saw blade (5).
- Set the rip fence (7) to the required specification on
the sight-glass (29) and secure it with the locking
handle for the rip fence.
9.5 Using the table width extension (Fig. 18)
- The table width extension (14) should always be used
for particularly wide work pieces.
- Loosen the locking handle (30) and pull out the table
width extension enough so the work piece can lie on it
without tilting.

9.6 Cross stop (Fig. 19)
- Push the cross stop (13) into a slot (31 a/b) on the
saw table.
- Loosen the locking handle (32).
- Rotate the cross stop (13) until the required angle is
set. The scale (33) shows the set angle.
- Re-tighten the locking handle (33).
10. Operation
Working instructions
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out a
trial cut in order to check the set dimensions. After switch-
ing on the saw, wait for the blade to reach its maximum
speed of rotation before commencing with the cut.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end of
the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.)
Take extra care when starting the cut!
Never use the equipment without the suction function.
Regularly check and clean the suction channels.
10.1 Making longitudinal cuts (Figure 20)
Longitudinal cutting (also known as slitting) is when you
use the saw to cut along the grain of the wood.
Press one edge of the workpiece against the parallel stop
(7) while the flat side lies on the saw table (1). The blade
guard (2) must always be lowered over the workpiece.
When you make a longitudinal cut, never adopt a work-
ing position that is in line with the cutting direction.
- Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the work-
piece height and the desired width. (See 9.4)
- Switch on the saw.
- Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on the
workpiece and push the workpiece along the parallel
stop (7) and into the blade (5).
- Guide at the side with your left or right hand (depend-
ing on the position of the parallel stop) only as far as
the front edge of the saw blade guard (2).
- Always push the workpiece through to the end of the
splitter (4).
- The offcut piece remains on the saw table (1) until the
blade (5) is back in its position of rest.
- Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end
of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.) (e.g. roller table
etc.)
10.1.1 Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 21)
Be sure to use a push stick (16) when making longitudi-
nal cuts in workpieces smaller than 120 mm in width. A
push block is supplied with the saw! Replace a worn or
damaged push stick immediately.
• Adjust the parallel stop to the width of workpiece you
require. (see 9.4)
• Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always use the
push stick (16) in the area of the saw blade.
• Always push the workpiece through to the end of the
splitter.
m Caution! With short workpieces, use the push stick
from the beginning.
10.2 Making cross cuts (Fig. 22)
- Slide the cross stop (13) into one of the grooves
(32a/32b) in the table and adjust to the required an-
gle. (see 9.6). If you also want to tilt the blade (5), use
the groove (31a) which prevents your hand and the
cross stop from making contact with the blade guard.
- Press the workpiece firmly against the cross stop (13).
- Switch on the saw.
