8.1 Connect the chip and dust

extraction unit

Danger!

Dust of certain timber species (e.g. beech, oak,

ash) can cause cancer when inhaled.

– Use only a suitable dust extraction unit when

working.

– In addition, use a dust mask, as not all saw dust

is collected or extracted.

If you connect the device to a chip and dust

extraction unit:

 Connect the chip and dust extraction unit / a

mobile all-purpose vacuum cleaner to the chip

extraction adapter nozzle (2). If needed,

connect the angled extraction adapter (3).

 Ensure that the dust extraction unit meets the

requirements stated in chapter 16. "Technical

Specifications".

 Observe the dust collector's operating

instructions as well!

8.2 Installing the workpiece clamping

device

The workpiece clamping device (11) can be

installed in two positions:

–For wide

workpieces:

Insert the workpiece clamping device into the

rear drilling (35) of the table.

– For narrow

workpieces:

Insert the workpiece clamping device into the

front drilling (36) of the table.

8.3 Power-supply connection

Danger! High voltage

Operate machine only on a power source meeting

the following requirements (see also chapter 16.

"Technical Specifications"):

– Mains voltage and system frequency must

conform to the voltage and frequency shown on

the machine´s rating label;

– fuse protection by a residual current operated

device (RCD) of 30 mA sensitivity;

– outlets properly installed, earthed or grounded,

and tested.

 Position power supply cable so it does not

interfere with the work and is not damaged.

 Use only rubber-jacketed extension cables with

sufficient lead cross-section (3 × 1.5 mm

 Use extension cables for outdoor areas. When

working outdoors, only use the correspondingly

marked extension cable approved for this

purpose.

 Avoid accidental start-up. Ensure that the on/off

switch is switched off when inserting the plug in

the socket.

 Before starting work, check to see that the

following are in proper working order.

 Assume proper operating position:

– at the front of the saw;

– in front of the saw;

– next to the line of cut.

Danger!

If possible, fix the workpiece using the workpiece

clamping device (11).

Danger of crushing!

When inclining or swivelling the saw head, never

reach into the hinge area or below the device!

 Hold the saw head during inclination.

 Use during work:

– workpiece support – for long workpieces, if

otherwise workpiece would fall off the table

after cutting;

– Chip and dust extraction unit.

 Cut only workpieces of dimensions that allow for

safe and secure holding while cutting.

 Always hold the workpiece down on the table

and do not jam it. Do not attempt to stop the saw

blade by pushing the workpiece against its side.

Risk of personal injury if the saw blade is

blocked.

9.1 Straight cuts

Starting position:

–Transport lock (16) pulled out.

–Saw head swivelled upwards.

– Cutting depth limitation (48) deactivated.

– Turntable is in 0° position, locking button (22)

for turntable is tightened.

– The inclination of the swivel arm to the vertical is

0°, locking lever (14) for inclined position is

tightened.

– Pulling device at the very rear.

–Set screw (18) of the pulling device has been

loosened.

– Set workpiece stop (30):

Release locking screw (31). Slide the movable

workpiece stop (30) (upper and lower part)

such that it supports the workpiece as well as

possible without touching the blade or the

protective cover. Fasten with locking screw

(31).

Cutting the workpiece:

1. Push the workpiece against the parallel guide/

ripping fence and clamp using the workpiece

clamping device (11).

2. For wider workpieces: pull the saw head

forwards (towards the operator) (pulling

device).

3. Activate the safety lock (29) ,press on/off

switch (27) and keep pressed.

4. Slowly lower the saw head at the handle all the

way down and, if required, push towards the

rear (away from the operator). During the

sawing process press on the workpiece just

enough for the motor speed not to lower too

much.

5. Cut the workpiece in one operation.

6. Release the on/off switch (27) and slowly let

the saw head swivel back into the upper

starting position.

9.2 Mitre cuts

Starting position:

–Transport lock (16) pulled out.

–Saw head swivelled upwards.

– Cutting depth limitation (48) deactivated.

– The inclination of the swivel arm to the vertical is

0°, locking lever (14) for inclined position is

tightened.

– Pulling device at the very rear.

–Set screw (18) of the pulling device has been

loosened.

– Set workpiece stop (30):

Release locking screw (31). Slide the movable

workpiece stop (30) (upper and lower part)

such that it supports the workpiece as well as

possible without touching the blade or the

protective cover. Fasten with locking screw

(31).

WARNING - Only for KGSV 72 Xact SYM: Align

parallel guides/ripping fences (30) flush (in one

line). (It is recommended to push the safety

catches (33) downwards to that both halves of

the table (9) / parallel guides/ripping fences (30)

lock in the 0° angular stop.)

– Push both locking levers (32) all the way

downwards.

Cutting the workpiece:

1. Loosen locking lever (22) of the turntable and

loosen safety catch (21).

2. Set the desired angle.

Note:

If the safety catch (21) is pushed upwards the

turntable locks in the 0°, 15°, 22.5°, 31.6°, 45°

and 60° angle levels. If the safety catch (21) is

pushed downwards all the way, the locking

function is deactivated.

3. Tighten the locking button (22) of the

turntable.

Caution!

 In order for the mitre angle not to change during

cutting, the locking handle (22) of the turntable

has to be tightened (also in the stop positions!).

4. Cut workpiece, as described for "Straight

cuts".

9.3 Inclined cuts

Starting position:

–Transport lock (16) pulled out.

– Saw head swivelled upwards.

– Cutting depth limitation (48) deactivated.

– Turntable is in 0° position, locking button (22)

for turntable is tightened.

– Pulling device at the very rear.

–Set screw (18) of the pulling device has been

loosened.

– Set workpiece stop (30):

Release locking screw (31). Slide the movable

workpiece stop (30) (upper and lower part)

such that it supports the workpiece as well as

possible without touching the blade or the

protective cover. Fasten with locking screw

(31).

For certain angle positions, it may be necessary

to remove the right-hand, movable upper part of

the workpiece stop (30) entirely, after loosening

the lock screw (31). Retighten locking screw

(31). (After the saw cut, reattach the upper part

and fasten with locking screw (31) so that it is

not lost.)

Cutting the workpiece:

1. Loosen the locking lever (14) for the

inclination setting of the saw.

2. Slowly tilt the swivel arm into the desired

position.

Pull the latch lever (12) in direction of the

operator side = infinite adjustment of the

swivel arm.

Push the latch lever (12) in direction of the

rear side = lock swivel arm in stop positions.

Note:

The swivel arm locks at the angle levels of 0°,

22.5° and 33.9°.

3. Tighten the locking lever (14) for the

inclination setting.

Caution!

 In order for the mitre angle not to change during

cutting, the locking lever of the turntable has to

be tightened (also in the stop positions!).

4. Cut the workpiece, as described for "Straight

cuts".

9.4 Double mitre cuts

Note:

The double mitre cut is a combination of mitre cut

and inclined cut. This means, the workpiece is cut

at an angle to the rear contact edge and at an

angle to the top.

Starting position:

–Transport lock (16) pulled out.

– Saw head swivelled upwards.

– Cutting depth limitation (48) deactivated.
