ternal threaded rod through the rollers and through the
workpiece support (1).

Operation
Working Advice
Always hold the workpiece firmly in place, especially long,
heavy pieces. Once the workpiece has been cut, the centre
of gravity may be displaced, causing the saw stand to tip
over.
Do not overload the saw stand. Always observe the max-
imum load bearing capacity of the saw stand.
Preparing the workpiece support
The free end of long workpieces must have something
placed underneath it or be supported.
Adjusting the height of the workpiece support
(see figure E)
– Place your workpiece on the saw table for the power tool.
– Release the locking knob (5) and adjust the height of the
roller support (7) so that your workpiece is straight.
– Re-tighten this locking knob.
Sawing workpieces of the same length (see figure F)
The length stop (8) can be used for easily sawing workpieces
of the same length.
– Pull the length stop (8) up until it engages.
– Position the workpiece support (1) at the required dis-
tance from the saw blade of the power tool.
– To insert the length stop (8), tilt the length stop in and
press it fully down.
Extending the saw stand (see figure G)
The saw stand can be extended on both sides.
– To stabilise the saw stand when machining long and
heavy workpieces, you can support the table
extension (2) with a support leg (13).
