- Place the rip fence (7) on the guide rail (12) to the
right or left of the saw blade.
- On the guide rail for the rip fence (12) there are 2
scales (27/28) which display the gap between the
fence rail (25) and the saw blade (5).
- Set the rip fence (7) to the required specification on
the sight-glass (29) and secure it with the locking
handle for the rip fence.
9.5 Using the table width extension (Fig. 18)
- The table width extension (14) should always be
used for particularly wide work pieces.
- Loosen the locking handle (30) and pull out the ta-
ble width extension enough so the work piece can
lie on it without tilting.
9.6 Cross stop (Fig. 19)
- Push the cross stop (13) into a slot (31 a/b) on the
saw table.
- Loosen the locking handle (32).
- Rotate the cross stop (13) until the required angle is
set. The scale (33) shows the set angle.
- Re-tighten the locking handle (32).

10. Operation

Working instructions
After each new adjustment it is advisable to carry out
a trial cut in order to check the set dimensions. After
switching on the saw, wait for the blade to reach its
maximum speed of rotation before commencing with
the cut.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the end
of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.)
Take extra care when starting the cut!
Never use the equipment without the suction function.
Regularly check and clean the suction channels.
10.1 Making longitudinal cuts (Fig. 20)
Longitudinal cutting (also known as slitting) is when
you use the saw to cut along the grain of the wood.
Press one edge of the workpiece against the parallel
stop (7) while the flat side lies on the saw table (1).
The blade guard (2) must always be lowered over the
workpiece.
When you make a longitudinal cut, never adopt a
working position that is in line with the cutting direc-
tion.
- Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the
workpiece height and the desired width. (See 9.4)
- Switch on the saw.
- Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on the
workpiece and push the workpiece along the paral-
lel stop (7) and into the blade (5).
- Guide at the side with your left or right hand (de-
pending on the position of the parallel stop) only as

far as the front edge of the saw blade guard (2).
- Always push the workpiece through to the end of
the splitter (4).
- The offcut piece remains on the saw table (1) until
the blade (5) is back in its position of rest.
- Secure long workpieces against falling off at the
end of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.) (e.g. roller
table etc.)
10.1.1 Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 21)
Be sure to use a push stick (16) when making longitu-
dinal cuts in workpieces smaller than 120 mm in width.
A push block is supplied with the saw! Replace a worn
or damaged push stick immediately.
• Adjust the parallel stop to the width of workpiece
you require. (see 9.4)
• Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always use
the push stick (16) in the area of the saw blade.
• Always push the workpiece through to the end of
the splitter.
m Caution! With short workpieces, use the push stick
from the beginning.
10.2 Making cross cuts (Fig. 22)
- Slide the cross stop (13) into one of the grooves
(32a/32b) in the table and adjust to the required an-
gle. (see 9.6). If you also want to tilt the blade (5),
use the groove (31a) which prevents your hand and
the cross stop from making contact with the blade
guard.
- Press the workpiece firmly against the cross stop
(13).
- Switch on the saw.
- Push the cross stop (13) and the workpiece toward
the blade in order to make the cut.
- Important:
Always hold the guided part of the workpiece.
Never hold the part which is to be cut off.
- Push the cross stop (13) forward until the workpiece
is cut all the way through.
- Switch off the saw again. Do not remove the offcut
until the blade has stopped rotating.
10.2.1 Making angular cuts (Fig.22)
Angular cuts must always be made using the parallel
stop (7).
- Set the blade (5) to the desired angle. (See 9.3)
- Set the parallel stop (7) in accordance with the
workpiece width and height (see 9.4)
- Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece
width (see 10.1).
10.3 Cutting particle boards
To prevent the cutting edges from cracking when
working with particle boards, you should not set the
saw blade (5) more than 5mm greater than the thick-
ness of the workpiece (also see 9.2).
