The mitre fence 6 is equipped with an adjustable stop
any position from 0 to 60˚ left and right and is locked with the locking knob
Simply slide the mitre fence onto the table and lock it at the required angle.
Setting the Bevel Angle (Fig. K)
1. Loosen the locking lever 12 .
2. Tilt the table to the required angle and lock the lever.
3. To set the angle to 90˚, place a square against the blade and adjust the stop
touches the underside of the table.
Adjusting the Blade Guard (Fig. L)
1. The blade guard 3 must always be positioned approximately 10 mm above the surface of
the workpiece.
2. Turn the knob 15 in order to adjust the height of the guard.
Changing Speed (Fig. M1–M2)
The bandsaw has two speeds. The low speed is obtained with the drive belt
small drive pulley 34 . The high speed is obtained with the drive belt

Prior to Use
• Carefully check the adjustable upper and lower blade blocks, movable door and the dust
extraction tube to ensure they operate properly.
• Ensure chips, dust or workpiece particle cannot lead to blockage of one of the functions.
If workpiece fragments are jammed between bandsaw blade and lower blade block,
disconnect the machine from the power supply and follow the instructions given in
section Mounting the Bandsaw Blade. Remove the jammed parts and reassemble the
saw blade.
OPERATION
Instructions for Use

WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and
disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF position.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
• Do not force the cutting action. Allow the motor to reach full speed before cutting.
• Select an appropriate saw blade.
• Never run the machine without the guards in place.
• Do not over tension the blade.
Ensure the machine is placed to satisfy your ergonomic conditions in terms of table height
and stability. The machine site shall be chosen so that the operator has a good overview and
enough free surrounding space around the machine that allows handling of the workpiece
without any restrictions.
To reduce effects of vibration make sure the environment temperature is not too cold,
machine and accessory is well maintained and the workpiece size is suitable for this machine
The attention of UK users is drawn to the "woodworking machines regulations 1974" and any
subsequent amendments.

1. Install the rip fence as described in Mounting and Adjusting the Rip Fence.
2. Set the rip fence for the width of cut required by using the scale.
3. Slowly feed the workpiece into the blade, keeping it firmly pressed onto the table and
against the fence. Allow the teeth to cut and do not force the workpiece through the
blade. The blade speed should be kept constant.
4. Use a push stick when close to the blade.
