8.3 Adjusting the cutting height (Fig. 6)
Slacken the four thumb screws (24).
The saw table (1) can be raised or lowered to
adjust it to the required cutting height.
The cutting height can be read off the scale (x)
of the vertical support (25).
Fix the saw table (1) with the thumb screws (28).
Important: Always tighten the thumb screws
securely to prevent the saw table dropping
accidentally.
8.4 Adjusting the angle (Fig. 6)
Undo the two fixing screws (26).
Swing the table (1) to the right and position it at
the required angle using the scale (a) on the
vertical support (25).
Re-tighten the two fixing screws (26).
Important! Always tighten the screws in order to
prevent the table tilting accidentally.
9. Sawing operations
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry
out a trial cut in order to check the set
dimensions.
9.1 Cutting narrow workpieces
(width less than 120 mm) (Fig. 7)
Adjust the parallel stop (7) to the width of
workpiece you require.
Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always
use the push stick (3) in the area of the saw
blade (4).
(A push stick is supplied with the saw!)
Always push the workpiece through to the end of
the splitter (5).
Caution! With short workpieces, use the push
stick from the beginning.
9.2 Cutting extremely narrow workpieces
(width less than 30 mm) (Fig. 8)
Adjust the parallel stop (7) to the width of the
workpiece you want to cut.
Use a push block (a) to push the workpiece up
to the end of the splitter (5).
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the
end of a cut (e.g. with a roller stand).
The saw is not supplied with a push block!
9.3 Making covered cuts (Fig. 9)
Covered cuts and groove cuts are possible thanks to
the removable blade guard and the infinitely
adjustable cutting height facility.
Remove the blade guard (2) (see 7.3).
Set the splitter (5) approx. 2 mm lower than
the uppermost tooth on the blade.
Set the required cutting depth (see 8.3).
Adjust the parallel stop (7) to the required width.
Push the workpiece into the blade (4), making
sure that the workpiece lies firmly on the table
(1).
Arrange the cutting sequence so that the cut-out
strip drops off on the right-hand side of the blade
(4). This is important in order to prevent jamming
between the parallel stop (7) and the blade (4)
(risk of kick-back).
9.4 Bevel cuts (Fig. 10)
Always use the parallel stop (7) when cutting bevels.
Fix the saw table in the required angle position
(see 8.4).
Move the workpiece along the parallel stop (7).
In this connection see also section 9.1 or 9.2,
depending on the width of the workpiece.
9.5 45°-cuts on small workpieces (Fig. 11)
You must always use the parallel stop (7) and the
angle stop (14) when making 45° cuts.
Mount the angle stop (14) on the parallel stop
(7).
Adjust the parallel stop (7) to the required length
of the workpiece and clamp securely.
Insert the workpiece in the angle stop (14).
Switch on the saw and push the angle stop (14)
together with the piece of wood along the
parallel stop (17) into the blade (4).
Switch off the saw when the cut is completed.
10. Maintenance
Remove dust and dirt regularly from the
machine. Cleaning is best done with
compressed air or a rag.
Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
