Operating hints:
Work only with a sharp and flawless sawblade.
Take care that the selection of the saw blade depends on the
material to be cut.
Use a suitable wedge to prevent round timber from turning under
the pressure of the cut.
Use suitable table extensions and supporting aids for difficult to
handle workpieces.
Always hold and guide the workpieces safely during machining.
The fence must securely be locked before machine use.
Do not perform any operation freehand.
Guide and push the workpiece against the fence.
Take care when slotting.
When ripping narrow workpieces (<120mm) use as push‐stick or
push wood.
Push sticks and push woods shall be made from plastic, wood or
plywood.
Push sticks must have a minimum length of 400mm and a V‐mouth.
To cut wedges, a special push wood must be used.
Make sure that small cut off workpieces will not be caught and
thrown away by the rising saw blade teeth.
Remove cut and jammed workpieces only when motor is turned
off and the machine is at a complete standstill.
Pay particular attention on reducing the risk of kickback.
The supplied raving knife must always be used.
