Sawing
HAZARD! Always use a push block, if the distance D of the workpiece is
less than 120 mm (Fig. 4).
The front edge of the saw blade guard must rest on the workpiece.
If necessary, install the mitre and width guide, and make sure that the locking screw points
in the operator's direction.
Set the mitre and width guide to the desired sawing width. Check on both scales of the
upper saw blade that the mitre and width guide has been set parallel to the saw blade.
Start the saw blade by pushing the green switch (7) into the “ON” position.
Push the workpiece slowly towards the back and saw it in one single and flowing
movement.
If further sawing is not immediately required, then turn the machine off by pushing the red
swit
ch (7) into the “OFF” position.
