Note:

Check with your local Electricity

Board or electrician if in doubt

whether your house service connec-

tion meets these requirements.

 Position power supply cable so it

does not interfere with the work

and is not damaged.

 Protect power supply cable from

heat, aggressive liquids and

sharp edges.

 Use only rubber-jacketed exten-

sion cables with sufficient lead

cross-section (see “Technical

Specifications”).

 When working out of doors, only

use extension cables that are

also approved for outdoors.

 Do not pull on power supply ca-

ble to unplug.

 Avoid accidental start-up: en-

sure that the on/off switch is

switched off when inserting the

plug in the socket.

Risk of injury!

This saw may only be operated by

one person at a time. Other persons

shall stay only at a distance to the

saw for the purpose of feeding or re-

moving stock.

Before starting work, check to see

that the following are in proper

working order:

– power cable and plug

– ON/OFF switch

– riving knife

– blade guard

– feeding aids (push stick, push

block and handle).

Use personal protection gear:

–dust respirator;

– hearing protection;

–safety goggles.

Assume proper operating position:

– at the front of the saw;

– in front of the saw;

– to the left of the line of cut;

– when working with two persons,

the other person must remain at

an adequate distance to the saw.

If the type of work requires, use the

following:

– suitable workpiece supports – if

otherwise workpiece would fall

off the table after cutting;

–dust collector.

Avoid typical operator mistakes:

– Do not attempt to stop the saw

blade by pushing the workpiece

against its side. Risk of kickback.

– Always hold the workpiece down

on the table and do not jam it.

Risk of kickback.

– Never cut several workpieces at

the same time – and also no bun-

dles containing several individu-

al pieces. Risk of personal injury

if individual pieces are caught by

the saw blade uncontrolled.

Drawing-in/trapping hazard!

Never cut stock to which ropes,

cords, strings, cables or wires are

attached or which contain such ma-

terials.

6.1 Dust collector / universal

vacuum cleaner

Danger!

Dust of certain timber species (e.g.

beech, oak, ash) can cause cancer

when inhaled. Use suitable dust col-

lector when working in enclosed

spaces. The dust collector must

meet the following requirements:

– fits the diameter of the dust ex-

traction ports (blade guard

38 mm; chip case 35/44 mm);

– air flow volume  460 m

/h;

– vacuum at dust extraction port of

saw  530 Pa;

– air speed at dust extraction port

of saw  20 m/ s.

The dust extraction ports are located at

the chip case assembly and at the saw

blade guard.

Observe the dust collector's operating

instructions as well!

Operation without a dust collector is

only possible out of doors.

6.2 Setting the depth of cut

Danger!

Parts of the body or objects in the

setting range can be caught by the

running saw blade! Set depth of cut

only with saw blade at standstill!

The saw blade's cutting depth needs to

be adapted to the workpiece height: the

blade guard shall rest with its front edge

on the workpiece.

 Adjust depth of cut by turning the

handwheel (47) as required.

Note:

To compensate for possible play in

the blade height setting mecha-

nism, always raise the blade to the

desired position.

6.3 Setting the saw blade tilt

Danger!

Parts of the body or objects in the

setting range can be caught by the

running saw blade! Set the depth of

cut only with the saw blade at stand-

still!!

The blade bevel angle can be adjusted

between -1.5° and 46.5°.

1. Release lock lever (48).

2. Set required saw blade tilt.
