8 OPERATION
There are two types of sawing methods:
Lengthwise sawing : Sawing the workpiece in the length of the wood grain.
Cross-cutting or cutting off : Sawing off the workpiece crosswise.
If it concerns a panel, we do not usually distinguish between the wood grain, but we name the
method where we saw off a part of the width of the panel (lengthwise sawing) and when we
cut off the length (cross-cutting or cutting-off).
For both sawing methods one of the fences must be used. Therefor never
saw without a fence!
Attention!
Before you start sawing, first check the following:
1.
Is the saw blade secured?
2.
Are all the locking handles secured?
3.
Is the fence parallel to the saw blade?
4.
Is the protective cap working properly?
5.
Are you wearing safety goggles?
6.
Is the saw blade not rubbing against anything?
It is absolutely necessary to take these points into consideration before you
start work!
8.1
Lengthwise sawing
Secure the fence to the correct measuring position and remove the cut-off guide from the
bench carriage.
Turn the saw blade approximately 2 mm higher than the total thickness of the wood to be
sawn.
Press the wood lightly towards the bench and let it glide against the cut-off fence.
Remain at least 3 cm. from the front of the saw blade before you switch on
the engine. The side of the wood which is against the fence must be
completely straight. Keep your hands at least 10 cm away from the saw
track to be followed.
Switch on the engine and wait until the saw blade has reached the maximum number of
revolutions before you start sawing.
While you press the wood against the bench and the fence, you can carefully push the
wood through the saw blade without forcing it.
Never pull the workpiece backwards. If necessary, switch off the engine first without
altering the position of the workpiece.
