10.1.1 Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 21)
Be sure to use a push stick (16) when making longitudi
-
nal cuts in workpieces smaller than 120 mm in width. A
push block is supplied with the saw! Replace a worn or
damaged push stick immediately.
•
Adjust the parallel stop to the width of workpiece you
require. (see 9.4)
•
Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always use the
push stick (16) in the area of the saw blade.
•
Always push the workpiece through to the end of the
splitter.
m
Caution! With short workpieces, use the push stick
from the beginning.
10.2 Making cross cuts (Fig. 22)
-
Slide the cross stop (13) into one of the grooves
(32a/32b) in the table and adjust to the required angle.
(see 9.6). If you also want to tilt the blade (5), use the
groove (31a) which prevents your hand and the cross
stop from making contact with the blade guard.
-
Press the workpiece firmly against the cross stop (13).
- Switch on the saw.
-
Push the cross stop (13) and the workpiece toward the
blade in order to make the cut.
-
Important:
Always hold the guided part of the workpiece. Nev-
er hold the part which is to be cut off.
-
Push the cross stop (13) forward until the workpiece is
cut all the way through.
- Switch off the saw again. Do not remove the offcut until
the blade has stopped rotating.
10.2.1 Making angular cuts (Fig.22)
Angular cuts must always be made using the parallel
stop (7).
-
Set the blade (5) to the desired angle. (See 9.3)
-
Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the work
-
piece width and height (see 9.4)
-
Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece
width (see 10.1).
10.3 Cutting particle boards
To prevent the cutting edges from cracking when working
with particle boards, you should not set the saw blade (5)
more than 5mm greater than the thickness of the work-
piece (also see 9.2).
11. Transport
1. Before any transport, turn the power tool off and dis
-
connect it from the power supply.
2.
At least two people are needed to carry the power
tool.
3. Protect the power tool from blows, impact and strong
vibrations, e.g. during transport in vehicles.
4. Secure the power tool against tilting and sliding.
5. Never use guards for handling or transport.
-
On the guide rail for the rip fence (12) there are 2 scales
(27/28) which display the gap between the fence rail
(25) and the saw blade (5).
-
Set the rip fence (7) to the required specification on the
sight-glass (29) and secure it with the locking handle
for the rip fence.
9.5 Using the table width extension (Fig. 18)
-
The table width extension (14) should always be used
for particularly wide work pieces.
-
Loosen the locking handle (30) and pull out the table
width extension enough so the work piece can lie on it
without tilting.
-
9.6 Cross stop (Fig. 19)
-
Push the cross stop (13) into a slot (31 a/b) on the saw
table.
-
Loosen the locking handle (32).
-
Rotate the cross stop (13) until the required angle is
set. The scale (33) shows the set angle.
-
Re-tighten the locking handle (33).
10. Operation
Working instructions
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out a trial
cut in order to check the set dimensions. After switching on
the saw, wait for the blade to reach its maximum speed of
rotation before commencing with the cut.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end of
the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.)
Take extra care when starting the cut!
Never use the equipment without the suction function.
Regularly check and clean the suction channels.
10.1 Making longitudinal cuts (Figure 20)
Longitudinal cutting (also known as slitting) is when you
use the saw to cut along the grain of the wood.
Press one edge of the workpiece against the parallel stop
(7) while the flat side lies on the saw table (1). The blade
guard (2) must always be lowered over the workpiece.
When you make a longitudinal cut, never adopt a working
position that is in line with the cutting direction.
-
Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the work
-
piece height and the desired width. (See 9.4)
- Switch on the saw.
-
Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on the work
-
piece and push the workpiece along the parallel stop
(7) and into the blade (5).
-
Guide at the side with your left or right hand (depend
-
ing on the position of the parallel stop) only as far as
the front edge of the saw blade guard (2).
-
Always push the workpiece through to the end of the
splitter (4).
-
The offcut piece remains on the saw table (1) until the
blade (5) is back in its position of rest.
- Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end of
the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.) (e.g. roller table etc.)
