NOTE!
In emergency, press the red stop button on the
switch by the left hand.
NOTE!
The cutting wheel, irrespective of its position or
the position of the cutter head, may touch neither the
table, nor the back square!
To bring the cutter head after this cutting procedure
back to 90° position, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the machine -> the cutting wheel must
stop rotating!
2. Loosen the locking lever and fix the cutter head
again in the top position.
3. Loosen the rear nut on the cutter head.
4. Tilt the cutter head until the 90° position is reached.
5. Tighten firmly the rear nut on the cutter head again.
6. Fix the cutter head by the locking lever again.
NOTE!
Hold firmly the cutter head with the hand
in the 90°¬ position. Tightening the nut can turn the
square back so that the angle of the cutter head is
not exactly 90°.
NOTE!
The cutting wheel, irrespective of its position
or the position of the cutter head, may not touch the
cutting table!
6.4.2 Water supply
Heavily polluted water decreases the service life of the
water pump and cutting wheel.
For frequent use, change water several times a day, and
collect, filter and dispose of the cutting mud
Clean the suction strainer of the water pump every time
the water is changed
6.5 Stop cutting operation
Use the red stop switch on the motor to stop the machine.

electrical and electronic waste and version transposed
into national law, used power tools must be collected
separately and sent for recycling in an environmental-
friendly manner.
5.4 Fill the water tank
The water tank must be filled before the machine is
started. Use clear, clean water for this.
ATTENTION!
The water pump may not run without water,
otherwise it can be damaged.
6. OPERATION
6.1 Intended working position of the operator
For table saw machines the operator takes position in
front of the machine to be able to slide the cutting table
forwards/backwards and to adjust the cutter head.
6.2 Start-up preparation
To safely use the machine as intended, the following
preconditions must be met:
- The machine stands firmly.
- The water tank is filled with clean, clear water.
- The machine has been checked for damage, loose screw
connections and integrity.
- The water supply is functional.
- Rotation direction arrows on the cutting wheel and guard
match.
- An appropriate cutting wheel must be installed, which
meets optimum conditions.
6.3 Start-up
The machine is switched on by the main switch. For this
purpose, press the green button to start
After the start, check the following:
The cooling water must be pumped to the cutting wheel
by the water pump in the sufficient quantities and drain off
on both sides. If this is not the case, stop the machine im-
mediately! The motor is equipped with thermal insulation
activated when the temperature rises too high.
Wait approx. 30 minutes before restarting the machine
until the motor cools down
6.4 Cutting operation
6.4.1 Normal cutting in 90° position
When cutting in 90° position, the cutter head remains at a
fixed point. For adjustment, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the machine -> the cutting wheel must stop
rotating!
2. Loosen the adjusting screw.
3. Set the cutter head in the desired position.
4. Tighten the adjusting screw -> check if the cutter head
is adjusted in height and make sure that it cannot
move.
5. Put the material to be cut onto the table (for table saw
machine position it directly at the material stop).
6. Check the position of the material using the angle stop.
7. Start the motor and the water pump and open the
water tap.
8. Put one hand on the cutter head handle.
9. Then slowly drag the cutter head without pressure over
the material on the table. The blade cuts the material.
NOTE!
The cutting wheel, irrespective of its position or
the position of the cutter head, may not touch the table!
NOTE!
In emergency, press the red stop button on the
switch by the left hand.
Cutting method: 45° bevel cuts
The machine offers the possibility of performing 45° bevel
cuts. To perform 45° bevel cuts, proceed as follows:
1. Pull the cutting table forward to free place for the cutter
head.
2. Loosen the rear nut on the cutter head.
3. Tilt the cutter head until the 45° position is reached.
4. Tighten firmly the rear nut on the cutter head again.
5. Fix the cutter head with the locking lever in the lowest
position.
6. Put the material to be cut onto the cutting table and
position it directly at the material stop.
7. Check the position of the material using the back
square.
8. Start the machine.
9. Grab the handle of the cutting table by the left hand
and the cutting head handle by the right hand.
10. Slowly slide the cutting table forward, without pres-
sure, against the cutting wheel, and pull it back after
cutting through the material.
