• Use a safe method for cutting pegs, e.g. a depth
stop.
• For cutting of small wedges, use a guide fixture.
• In order to cut dovetail tenons and teeth or wedges,
swivel the saw table into the plus and minus position.
Make sure that the workpiece is guided safely.
• On curved and irregular cuts, advance the work-
piece using both hands, keeping your fingers closed.
Keep your hands on a safe area of the workpiece.
• Use an auxiliary template for repeated cutting of
curved, irregular cuts.
• Secure the workpiece against turning when cutting
round pieces of wood.
• Use the special transverse cutting gauge accessory
for safe working with cross cuts.
• Use the special circle cutting device accessory for
safe working when cutting round plates (not included
in the scope of delivery).
Warning:If the band saw blade or belt is torn, the roll-
ers can continue to run, so it is essential to wait for
the machine to come to a complete standstill before
opening the protective devices.
10.1 Using the parallel stop
10.1.1 Stop heights (fig. 24)
• The stop rail (g) of the parallel stop (6) has two guide
surfaces at different heights.
• Depending on the thickness of the material to be
cut, the stop rail (g) must be used for thick material
(workpiece thickness exceeding 25 mm) and for thin
material (workpiece thickness below 25 mm).
10.1.2 Setting the stop rail (fig. 24, 25)
1. To move the stop rail (g) to the lower guide surface,
loosen the two knurled nuts (i) to release the stop
rail (g) from parallel stop (6).
2. Pull out the stop rail (g) along the groove.
3. Turn the stop rail (g) and slide the sliding block
along the second groove.
4. Shifting to the higher guide surface must be car-
ried out in the same way.
10.1.3 Changing the side of the parallel stop
1. Fully unscrew the knurled nuts (i).
2. Remove the stop rail (g) and insert the coach bolts
on the opposite side of the parallel stop (6).

10.1.4 Setting the cutting width (fig. 11)
• The parallel stop (6) must be used when cutting sec-
tions of wood lengthways.
• The parallel stop (6) can be mounted on both sides
of the saw table (24).
• Two scales are printed on the guide rail (7) on the
front side of the saw table (24). One written in blue
and another one in black indicating the distance be-
tween stop rail (g) and saw blade (26) (cutting width):
Use the upper scale in blue, if you have mounted
-
the stop rail (g) flat (for thin material).
Use the lower scale in black, if you have mount-
-
ed the stop rail (g) upright (for thick material).
To set the parallel stop (6) to the desired dimension,
proceed as follows:
1. Raise the eccentric lever (33).
2. Slide the parallel stop (6) until you see the desired
dimension on the scale of the guide rail (7) in the
sight glass.
3. To fix it in place, press the eccentric lever (33) fully
downwards.
10.2 Using the transverse cutting gauge, (fig. 3, 16)
1. Slide the transverse cutting gauge (30) into a
groove (a) on the saw table.
2. Undo the grip screw (b).
3. Remove the locking pin (c) (0°/ 45°).
4. Turn the transverse stop (30) until the desired an-
gle has been set. The arrow (d) on the transverse
stop indicates the set angle.
5. Re-tighten the grip screw (b). Insert the locking
pin (c) again if necessary (0°/ 45°).
6. The stop rail (e) can be slid against the transverse
stop (30). To do so, loosen the knurled screws (f)
and slide the stop rail (e) into the desired position.
Tighten the knurled screws (f) again.
7. m Attention! Do not slide the stop rail (e) to far
in the direction of the saw band.
10.3 Performing longitudinal cuts (Fig. 24)
Here, a workpiece is cut in its longitudinal direction.
1. Adjust the parallel stop (6) on the left side (if pos-
sible) of the saw band (26) corresponding to the
desired width.
2. Lower the saw band guide (5) onto the workpiece.
3. Switch the band saw on. (see 9.14)
4. Press an edge of the workpiece against the par-
allel stop (6), whilst the flat side lies on the saw
table (24).
