2. Push the rip fence from the side onto
the saw table (6).
3. Move the rip fence on the saw table.
Make sure that both scales are set to
the same value.
4. Close the quick release lever of the rip
fence.
✔
You can now switch on the machine
and saw straight cuts.
Angular cuts
Notes
• There are two options for sawing diag-
onally:
• Sawing with a tilted saw table
• Sawing with a mitre gauge fence
• For cutting dovetail-shaped tines and
tenons or wedges, move the saw table
to the corresponding position on the
angle scale.
• After each new adjustment, we recom-
mend a trial cut in order to check the set
dimensions.
Sawing with a tilted saw table
Fig. A centre
1. Set the saw table to the desired incli-
nation (see “Tilting the saw table”).
2. If possible, attach the rip fence to the
right side of the saw table. This will
prevent the workpiece from slipping.
Sawing with a mitre gauge fence
Fig. A below
1. Set the mitre gauge fence (19) to the
desired angle.
2. Slide the rail of the mitre gauge fence
into the guide on the saw table (6).
3. With the machine switched off, check
that the guide is completely inside the
rail at the start of the cut.
If not, you should saw the cut different-
ly, for example with a tilted saw table.
4. If possible, attach the rip fence to the
left side of the saw table.
✔
You can now switch on the machine
and saw diagonal cuts with the mitre
gauge fence.
✔
You can now switch on the machine
and saw diagonal cuts with the saw
table tilted.
Curved cuts
Notes
• ⚠
CAUTION!
Your fi ngers are particu-
larly at risk when cutting curves! Take
special care.
• Remove the rip fence and the mitre
gauge fence.
• Use an auxiliary template for executing
repeat curved, irregular cuts.
• When making curved and irregular cuts
in the workpiece, push the workpiece
evenly forward using both hands, with
your fi ngers closed. Keep your hands
in the safe area when holding the work-
piece.
Ending the operation

OFF switch. Press the O button. Wait
for the band saw blade to come to a
complete standstill.
2. Pull out the mains plug.
3. Release the tension of the band saw
blade, see “Checking and adjusting
the tension of the band saw blade”.
The life of the band saw blade is re-
duced if stored with tension.
4. Clean the machine.
