– Press lever 3, swing back the retracting
blade guard 5 to the stop and hold it in this
position.
– Place the new saw blade onto the interior
clamping flange 35.
When mounting the saw blade, pay atten-
tion that the cutting direction of the teeth
(arrow direction on the saw blade) corre-
sponds with the direction of the arrow on
the blade guard!

tighten the screw turning in anticlockwise di-
rection.

tle in order to relieve the transport safety-
lock 29.

Clamping the Workpiece (see figure G)
To ensure optimum working safety, the work-
piece must always be firmly clamped.
Do not saw workpieces that are too small to
clamp.
– Press the workpiece firmly against the
fence 15.
– Insert the material clamp 16 provided into
one of the holes 23 intended for it.
– Loosen the wing bolt 37 and adapt the mate-
rial clamp to the workpiece. Tighten the wing
bolt again.
– Firmly clamp the workpiece by turning the
threaded rod 38 in clockwise direction.
Loosening the Workpiece
– To release the material clamp, turn the
threaded rod 38 in anticlockwise direction.
Extending the Saw Table (see figure H)
Long workpieces must be underlaid or support-
ed at their free end.
The flexible saw-table extension plug-in system
14 enables a variety of extension possibilities.
– Insert the saw-table extension 14 into the
openings 28 of the saw-table base or into the
openings 32 of the second saw-table exten-
sion.
