11.4.6 Adjusting the parallel stop (fig. 19)
If the parallel stop (1) including stop rail (1a) is not parallel to
the saw blade (6), it must be readjusted. Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the saw blade guard (4).
2. Set the saw blade (6) to the maximum cutting depth.
3. Position the parallel stop (1) such that the stop rail (1a)
makes contact with the saw blade (6).
PREREQUISITE:
The stop rail (1a) has already been set to
the lower guide surface (see 11.4.2).
4. If the stop rail (1a) is not in line with the saw blade (6),
loosen the Phillips screws (1d) in the parallel stop (1) with
an Phillips screwdriver and align the stop rail (1a) parallel
to the saw blade (6).
5. Tighten the Phillips screws (1d) again.
6. Again, position the parallel stop (1) away from the saw
blade (6).
11.5 Using the transverse stop
Do not push the stop rail (3a) too far towards the saw blade
(6). The distance between the stop rail (3a) and the saw blade
(6) needs to be approx. 2 cm.
11.5.1 Setting the transverse stop (fig. 20)
1. Secure the stop rail (3a) on the transverse stop (3) by tight-
ening the wing nut (3b).
2. Slide the transverse stop (3) into one of the guide grooves
of the saw table (2).
3. Loosen the locking handle (3c) and turn the transverse stop
(3) until the desired angle has been set.
4. Turn the locking handle (3c) again.
11.6 Laser (fig. 21)
The laser (24) allows precision cutting with your circular table
saw. The laser light is generated by a laser diode. The line can
be used as a visual marker of the cutting line during precision
cutting. The laser switch (25) is accessible through a recess on
the top when the saw blade guard (4) is fitted.
Observe the safety instructions for working with the laser (see
chapter 6).
11.6.1 Switching the laser on/off
1. To switch the laser on, set the laser switch (25) to position
“I” (laser on). A red laser beam is now projected from the
laser aperture. When the workpiece is guided along the
cutting line marking of the laser during sawing, clean cuts
are achieved.
2. To switch the laser off, set the laser switch (25) to position
“0” (laser off). The laser beam goes out.
3. Please always switch off the laser (24) when it is not need-
ed to save the batteries.
ATTENTION
The laser beam can be blocked by dust and chip deposits. For
this reason, remove these particles from the saw blade guard
after each use.
11.6.2 Adjusting the laser
If the laser (24) is no longer showing the correct cutting line, it
can be readjusted.
1. Loosen the adjustment screw (24a) on the laser diode.
2. Move the laser so that the laser beam hits the cutting teeth
of the saw blade (6).
3. Tighten the adjustment screw (24a) again.
12. Sawing
m
WARNING
Danger of injury due to incorrect mounting
-
Check that the product is properly assembled.
-
Check the saw blade for mobility and the moving parts
for ease of movement.
ATTENTION
Wait after the saw has been switched on, until the saw blade
(6) has reached full speed, before starting the cutting process.
12.1 Working instructions
m
WARNING
Danger of injury!
Improper handling may result in serious injury.
-
Observe and follow the safety and working instructions.
• When making longitudinal cuts, do not stand in front of the
circular table saw, but position yourself at an angle to the
cut.
• Always use the parallel stop for angled cuts.
• Use a push stick or wooden push block in order to guide
the workpiece past the saw blade. Replace a damaged or
worn push stick.
• Secure larger workpieces against tipping after the cutting
process. To do so, use for example a reel-off stand.
• After the circular table saw has been switched on, wait until
the saw blade has reached full speed, before starting the
cutting process.
• Only operate the table saw with an extraction system.
• After every new setting, we recommend performing a test
cut, in order to check the dimensional settings.
• Check and clean the extraction channels at regular intervals.
12.2 Performing longitudinal cuts (fig. 22)
With a longitudinal cut, you cut a workpiece in its longitudinal
direction. Hold the edge of the workpiece against the parallel
stop (1), whilst the flat side lies on the saw table (2).
1. Adjust the parallel stop (1) according to the workpiece
height and the desired width (see 11.4).
2. Lower the saw blade guard (4) onto the saw table (2).
When sawing, the saw blade guard (4) is pushed by the
workpiece.
3. Switch on the extraction system and then the circular table
saw.
4. Place your hands flat on the workpiece with your fingers
closed and slide it along the parallel stop (1) into the saw
blade (6).
5. Guide the workpiece sideways by holding it only with the
left hand up to the front edge of the saw blade guard (4).
6. Always use the push stick (35) to push the workpiece
through to the end of the riving knife (5).
