of the saw blade can be readjusted for 0°. To
do this, adjust the adjustment screw (47).
7.6 Accessory slide used as an angle stop/
cross stop (Fig. 27)
•
The slide can be used as an angle stop/cross
stop in the same way as the universal stop
(see 6.8).
•
Slacken the clamping lever (106).
•
Turn the stop rail (101) until the desired angle
is reached. 0° for use as a cross stop (90°
cuts) – a different angle for angle cuts.
•
Retighten the clamping lever (106).
•
Important! Do not push the stop rail too far
toward the blade (5). The distance between
the stop rail and the blade should be approx.
2 cm.
8. Operation
Warning!
•
After every new adjustment we recommend
you to make a trial cut in order to check the
new settings.
•
After switching on the saw, wait for the blade
to reach its maximum speed of rotation before
commencing with the cut.
•
Take extra care when starting the cut!
•
Never use the equipment without the suction
function.
•
Regularly check and clean the suction chan-
nels.
8.1 Making longitudinal cuts (Figure 17)
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 fl at side lies on the
saw table (1). The guard hood (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 workpiece height and the desired width.
(See 7.3.)
•
Switch on the saw.
•
Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on
the workpiece and push the workpiece along
the parallel stop (7) and into the blade (4).
•
Provide guidance at the side with your hand
only as far as the front edge of the guard
hood.

•
Always push the workpiece through to the
end of the splitter (5).
•
The offcut piece remains on the saw table
(1) until the blade (4) 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.).
8.1.1 Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 18)
Be sure to use a push stick (3) when making
longitudinal cuts in workpieces smaller than 150
mm in width. A push stick is supplied with the
saw! Replace a worn or damaged push stick im-
mediately.
8.1.2 Cutting very narrow workpieces
(Fig. 19)
•
Be sure to use a push block (10) when ma-
king longitudinal cuts in very narrow workpie-
ces with a width of 50 mm and less.
•
The low guide face of the parallel stop is best
used in this case.
•
The push block (10) is supplied with the saw.
•
Replace the push block without delay when it
becomes worn.
8.2 Making bevel cuts (Fig. 16/20)
Bevel cuts must always be used using the parallel
stop (7).
•
Set the blade (4) to the desired angle. (See
7.5.)
•
Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with
the workpiece width and height (see 7.3)
•
Carry out the cut in accordance with the work-
piece width (see 8.1.1. and 8.1.2)
8.3 Making cross cuts (Figs. 21, 27)
Cross cuts must always be performed using the
holder (24) together with the stop rail (23) as a
cross stop (see 7.4); in addition, cross cuts can
also be performed using the accessory slide as a
cross stop (see 7.6). In this case the workpiece is
cut through crosswise.
•
Set the cross stop or accessory slide to the
desired angle (see 7.4 or 7.6).
•
Press the workpiece firmly against the stop
rail (23 or 101).
•
Switch on the saw.
•
Push the cross stop or accessory slide and
the workpiece toward the blade in order to
make the cut.
•
Warning! Always hold the guided part of the
workpiece. Never hold the part which is to be
cut off.
