5. Slide the workpiece at an even feed rate along the
parallel stop (6) into the saw band (26).
Notes on performing longitudinal cuts
• Important:Long workpieces must be secured
against tipping at the end of the cutting process
(e.g. with reel-off stand, etc.)
• With all cutting processes, position the top saw band
guide (5) as close as possible to the workpiece.
• Always hold the workpiece with both hands. Keep it
flat on the band saw table (24), in order to prevent
jamming of the saw band.
• Forward feeding should always take place with an
even pressure, which is just sufficient for the saw
band to cut through the material with ease without
becoming blocked.
• Always use the parallel stop (6) for all cutting pro-
cesses that it can be used for.
• It is better to perform a cut in a single working step
than in multiple steps, which may require that the
workpiece be drawn back.
However, if it is not possible to avoid drawing the
workpiece back, the band saw must be switched off
beforehand. The workpiece should only be pulled
back once the saw band has come to a standstill.
• When sawing, the workpiece must always be guided
by its longest side.
• m Attention! When processing narrower work-
pieces it is essential to use a push rod. Always store
the push stick (52) within reach on the push stick
retainer (16) provided for this purpose on the side
of the saw (Fig. 2; 17).
10.4 Performing angled cuts
(Fig. 25)
1. In order to execute angled cuts parallel to the saw
band (Fig. 25), it is possible to tilt the saw table
(24) forwards from 0° - 45°.
2. Undo the angle setting quick clamp lever (23)
(Fig. 9).
3. Tilt the saw table (24) forwards. Turn the adjusting
knob for the angle setting (22) until the desired an-
gle has been set on the graduated scale.
4. Tighten the angle setting quick clamp lever (23)
(Fig. 9) again.
5. m Attention!With a tilted saw bench (24), the
parallel stop fence (6) must be positioned on the
downward facing side to the right of the saw band
in the working direction (fig. 25) (if the workpiece
width allows this), in order to secure the workpiece
against slipping.
m Attention! After every new setting, we recom-
mend performing a test cut, in order to check the
dimensional settings.
6. Make the cut as described under 10.3.
10.5 Executing cuts with the transverse cutting
gauge (Fig 28, 29)
1. Set the transverse cutting gauge (30) to the de-
sired angle (see 10.2)
2. Lower the saw band guide (5) onto the workpiece.
3. Switch the band saw on.
4. Press the workpiece against the transverse cut-
ting gauge and slide it into the saw band at an
even rate of feed.
10.6 Freehand cuts (Fig. 26; 27)
One of the most important features of a band saw is
the ease with which it can cut curves and radii.
1. Lower the saw band guide (5) onto the workpiece.
2. Switch the band saw on.
3. Press the workpiece firmly on the saw table (24)
and slide it slowly into the saw band.
Notes:
• In many cases it is helpful to roughly saw curves
and corners approximately 6 mm from the line.
• If it is necessary to saw curves that are too tight for
the saw band used, auxiliary cuts must be sawn up
to the front face of the curve, so that these fall off as
wood waste when the final radius is sawn.

11. Transport

m Attention!
Unplug the mains plug prior to transport!
Never lift by the saw table!
During transport, the saw band guard (4) must be in
the lowest position and close to the table.
1. For transport, only pull the transport handle out
until the rear screw is in contact with the second
mounting plate. (fig. 5)
2. Now lift the machine by the transport handle (10)
until the machine can be stood on the travel fixture
(11) and moved.
Notes:
• Transport is only permitted on a straight, even sur-
face.
