Checking:
(see figure 9)
- Adjust an angle gauge to 90° and
position it between the stop rail (17) and
the saw blade (6) on the turntable (15).
The leg of the angle gauge must be flush
with the saw blade (6) over the complete
length.
Adjusting:
(see figure 8/9)
- Loosen all four set screws (33) and turn
the stop rail (17) until the leg of the angle
gauge is flush with the stop rail over the
complete length.
- Retighten the four set screws again.
When the mitre angle pointer (12) is not
in line with the 0° mark of mitre angle
scale (14) after adjusting, loosen the
screw on the mitre angle pointer (12)
with a philips screwdriver and align the
angle pointer pointed to the 0°mark.
8.5 Cross cut 90° and turntable 0°
(Fig. 10/12)
In the case of cutting widths up to approx.
100 mm it is possible to fix the traction
function of the saw with the locking screw
(25) in the rear position. In this position the
machine can be operated in cross cutting
mode. If the cutting width is over 100 mm
then it is necessary to ensure that the locking
screw (25) is loose and the machine head (4)
can move.
• Move the machine head (4) to its upper
position.
• Use the handle (1) to push back the
machine head (4) and fix it in this
position if required(dependent on the
cutting width).
• Place the piece of wood to be cut at the
stop rail (17) and on the turntable (15).
• Lock the material with the clamping
device (7) on the fixed saw table(16) to
prevent the material from moving during
the cutting operation.
• Operate the release lever (3) to release
the machine head (4).
• Press the ON/OFF switch (2) to start the
motor.
• With the drag guide (26) fixed in place:
Use the handle (1) to move the machine
head (4) steadily and with light pressure
downwards until the saw blade (6) has
completely cut through the work piece.
• With the drag guide (26) not fixed in
place:
Pull the machine head (4) all the way
to the front. Lower the handle (1) to the
very bottom by applying steady and
light downward pressure. Now push the
machine head (4) slowly and steadily to
the very back until the saw blade (6) has
completely cut through the work piece.
• When the cutting operation is completed,
move the machine head (4) back to its
upper (home) position and release the
ON/OFF switch (2).
Attention! The machine executes an upward
stroke automatically due to the return
spring, i.e. do not release the handle (1)
after completing the cut; instead allow the
machine head to move upwards slowly
whilst applying light counter pressure.
8.6 Cross cut 90° and metre cut 0°
- 45° (Fig. 10/11)
The crosscut saw can be used to make
crosscuts of 0° -45° to the left and 0° - 45° to
the right in relation to the stop rail.
• Loosen the metre lock handle (10) in case
it is tightened, press the metre detent
lever (11) and use the mitre lock handle
(10) to adjust the turntable (15) to the
desired angle. The mitre angle pointer
(12) on the turntable must match the
desired angle on the mitre angle scale
(14) on the fixed saw table (16).
• Re-tighten the mitre lock handle (10) in
order to secure the turntable (15).
