depth limiter (35) to the outside. Turn the screw
(34) in or out to set the required cutting depth and
then retighten the knurled nut on the screw (34).
Check the setting by completing a test cut.

7.6 Chip box (Fig. 35-36/Item 23)
The saw is equipped with a chip box (23) for sawdust
and chips. The chip box (23) can be fitted onto the
extractor adapter (33).
To empty the chip box (23), flip the box open as
shown in Figure 36 and carefully empty it by tapping.
Alternatively, a suitable dust extraction device can be
fitted to the extractor adaptor (33).
7.7 Changing the saw blade (Fig. 1, 37-40)
Pull out the power plug!
Swing the machine head (4) upwards and lock in
n
this position with the fastening bolt (27).
Press the release lever (3) and swing up the saw
n
blade guard (6) to the point where the recess in
the saw blade guard (6) is above the flange bolt
(39).
Press the saw shaft lock (5) with one hand while
n
holding the wrench (P) on the flange bolt (39) with
the other.
Firmly press on the saw shaft lock (5) and slowly
n
rotate the flange bolt (39) in clockwise direction.
The saw shaft lock (5) engages after no more
than one rotation.
Now, using a little more force, slacken the flange
n
bolt (39) in the clockwise direction.
Turn the flange screw (39) right out and remove
n
the external flange (40).
Take the blade (7) off the inner flange and pull out
n
downwards.
Carefully clean the flange screw (39), outer flange
n
(40) and inner flange.
Fit and fasten the new saw blade (7) in reverse
n
order.
Important. The cutting angle of the teeth, in other
n
words the direction of rotation of the saw blade
(7) must coincide with the direction of the arrow
on the housing.
Check to make sure that all safety devices are
n
properly mounted and in good working condition
before you begin working with the saw again.
Important. Every time that you change the saw
n
blade, check to see that it spins freely in the table
insert (12) in both perpendicular and 45° angle
settings.
Important. The work to change and align the saw
n
blade (7) must be carried out correctly.

8. Operation as metal saw
Important. Wear gloves (risk of injury) and
suitable safety goggles.
You can make crosscuts with and without miter in
n
the angle ranges listed in section 7.) When
working with metal, you can only make crosscuts
due to risk of kick-back. In this case the drag
guide (24) must be fixed with the locking screw.
Before using the equipment, sweep any small
n
metal chips away from the machine to protect
yourself against injury. Always clamp the
workpiece with the vertical clamping device (8)
and the horizontal clamping device (21).
Press the ON/OFF switch (2). Wait until the saw
n
blade reaches full speed before making a cut.
Press the release lever (3). With the drag guide
n
(24) fixed in place, use the handle (1) to move the
machine head (4) downwards steadily, quickly
and exerting slight pressure until the workpiece is
completely cut through.
When the cutting operation is completed, move
n
the machine head (4) back to its upper (home)
position and release the ON/OFF button (2).
Let the saw blade run to a complete stop before
n
removing the workpiece.
Important: The integral resetting springs will
n
automatically lift the machine head. Do not simply
let go of the handle (1) after cutting but allow the
machine head (4) to rise slowly, applying slight
counterpressure as it does so.
9. Transport (Fig. 1-3)
Retighten the locking grip (14) to secure the
n
turntable (17) in place.
Activate the release lever (3), press the machine
n
head (4) downwards and secure with the
fastening bolt (27). The saw is now locked in its
bottom position.
Fix the saw's drag function with the locking screw
n
for the drag guide (25) in the rear position.
Carry the machine on the fixed saw table (18), or
n
if the saw is mounted to the base frame, on the
relevant trough handles on the base frame.
To set up the equipment again, proceed as
n
described in section 6.2.
