Additional Safety

1 Safety precautions

• Warning! Do not use damaged or deformed saw blades.

• Replace a worn table insert.

• Only use saw blades recommended by the manufacturer which conform to EN 847-1.

• Make sure that a suitable saw blade for the material to be cut is selected.

- Wear suitable personal protective equipment. This includes:

• Hearing protection to avoid the risk of becoming hearing impaired,
• Respiratory protection to avoid the risk of inhaling harmful dust,
• Wear gloves when handling saw blades and rough materials. Carry saw blades in a container whenever practical.
• Wear goggles. Sparks generated during work or splinters, chippings and dust coming from the device can lead to loss of eyesight.

- Connect a dust collecting device to the electric tool when sawing wood. The emission of dust is influenced, among other things, by the type of material to be processed, the significance of local separation (collection or source) and the correct setting of the hood/guide plates/guides.

• Do not use saw blades made of high-speed alloy steel (HSS steel).
• In times of non-use keep the push stick or the push block with the electrical power tool at all times.
• Use the upper blade guard and set it to the correct position.

2 Maintenance and repair

– Pull out the mains plug for any adjustment or repair tasks.

• The generation of noise is influenced by various factors, including the characteristics of saw blades, condition of saw blade and electric tool. Use saw blades which were designed for reduced noise development, insofar as possible. Maintain the electric tool and tool attachments regularly and if necessary, initiate repairs in order to reduce noise.
• Report faults on the electric tool, protective devices or the tool attachment to the person responsible for safety as soon as they are discovered.

3 Safe work

- Only use saw blades for which the maximum permissible speed is not lower than the maximum spindle speed of table saws and which are suitable for the material to be cut.

• Do not cut rebates or grooves without fitting a suitable guard, e.g. a tunnel-type guard, over the saw table.
• Circular saws must not be used for slotting jobs (cutting grooves which end in the workpiece).
• When transporting the electric tool, only use the transport devices. Never use the protective devices for handling or transport.
• Make sure that the lower part of the saw blade is covered during transport, e.g. by the protective device.
• Be sure to only use spacers and spindle rings specified by the manufacturer as suitable for the intended purpose.
• The floor around the machine must be level, clean and free of loose particles, such as chips and cutting residues.
• Do not remove any cutting residues or other parts of workpieces from the cutting zone while the machine is running and the saw unit is not at rest.
• Support long workpieces (e.g. with a roller table) to prevent them sagging at the end of a cut.

Warning! This electric tool generates an electromagnetic field during operation. This field can impair active or passive medical implants under certain conditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with medical implants consult with their physician and the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operating the electric tool.

Fig. 9

1 / 2 3

• Adjust the desired cutting depth by turning the height adjusting crank(3).
• Turning in counter-clockwise direction increases the cutting depth.
• Turning in clockwise direction decreases the cutting depth.

Using the longitudinal stop

Cutting width (Fig. 10)

• Use the longitudinal stop for longitudinal cuts.
• The longitudinal stop (5) can be fixed to each side of the bench plate.
• To use the scale, move the stop to the saw blade and measure the distance at the scale. Now slide the stop away from the saw blade. The measured difference corresponds to the cutting depth. In order to obtain an exact value, it is necessary to make a test cut, measure the workpiece and re-adjust the stop.
• Lift the locking lever and slide the stop into the desired position.
• Pull the locking lever tight again.

Stop height (Fig. 10.1-10.2)

• The longitudinal stop (5+6) supplied with the benchtype circular saw has two different guide faces.
• For thick material you must use the longitudinal rail (5) as shown in Fig. 10.1, for thin material you must use the stop rail as shown in Fig.10.2.
• To change over the longitudinal rail (5+6) to the lower guide face you have to slacken the two knurled screws (7) in order to disconnect the longitudinal rail (6) from the holder (5).
• Remove the two knurled screws (7) through the one slot (8) in the longitudinal rail (6) and insert in the other slot.

Fig. 10.2

Fig. 10 4 5

Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with labeled component '5' (no text or symbols beyond label)

Fig. 10.1

• Remount the longitudinal rail (6) on the holder (5).
• The procedure for changing over to the high guide face is similar.

Setting the stop length

• The stop rail (5) can be moved in longitudinal direction in order to prevent the workpiece from becoming jammed.
• Rule of thumb: The rear end of the stop comes up against an imaginary line that begins roughly at the center of the blade and runs at an angle of 45^ to the rear.

- Set the required cutting width

• Slacken the knurled screws and push the stop rail (5) forward until it touches the imaginary 45^ line.
• Retighten the knurled screws.

WARNING!

The longitudinal stop must always be adjusted so that it is parallel to the saw blade. Check this together with the tension of the fixing elements in regular intervals, and always when the saw has not been used for several days.

Using the cross cutting gauge (Fig. 11)

• Slide the cross cutting gauge (4) into the groove (11) of the table.
• Slacken the knurled screw (12).
• Turn the cross cutting gauge (4) until the arrow points to the angle required.
  • Retighten the knurled screw (12).
• To move the stop from one side of the quadrant, loosen both plastic screws that fix the stop, remove the stop, place it on the other side and tighten the plastic screws again.

Important!

• Do not push the longitudinal stop (5) too far toward the blade.
• The distance between the longitudinal stop (5) and the saw blade should be approx. 2 cm.

Adjusting the saw blade angle (Fig. 12)

• Loosen the saw blade lock (9) and turn the handle (3) until the indicator(6) points to the correct angle on the scale (10).
• The angle indication(6) can be adjusted when checking the angle accuracy of the saw blade. Hold an angle against the saw blade when the machine is switched off and the power supply unit is disconnected. Adjust the handle until the saw blade is parallel to the angle. Then, move the indicator to 0^ on the scale.
• Lock after adjusting.

Setting the angle (Fig. 12.1)

• Undo the fixing handle (9).
• Turn the handle to set the desired angle on the scale.
• Lock the fixing handle again in the required angle position.

Replacing the saw blade (Fig. 12.2)

• Remove the table insert by undoing the two countersunk head screws.
• Undo the nut with a size 24 wrench on the nut itself and a second fork wrench (size 13) on the motor shaft to apply counter-pressure.
• Important! Turn the nut in the direction of rotation of the saw blade.
• Take off the outer flange and pull the old saw blade off the inner flange by dropping the blade at an angle.
• Clean the blade flange thoroughly before fitting the new blade.
• Mount and fasten the new saw blade in reverse order.
• Important! Note the running direction. The cutting angle of the teeth must point in running direction, i.e. forwards (see the arrow on the blade guard).
• Refit and set the splitting wedge (13) and the protective cover.
• Check to make sure that all safety devices are properly mounted and in good working condition before you begin working with the saw again.

WARNING!

Switch the machine off and disconnect the power supply unit before making any adjustments or carrying out maintenance works, or replacing the saw blade.

Working instructions

IMPORTANT!!!

• After every new adjustment we recommend you to make a trial cut in order to check the new settings.
• After switching on the saw, wait for the blade to reach its maximum speed of rotation before commencing with the cut.
  • Take extra care when starting the cut!
• Never use the equipment without the suction function. Regularly check and clean the suction channels.

Making longitudinal cuts (Fig. 13)

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 longitudinal stop while the flat side lies on the saw table.

The protective cover 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 direction.

• Set the longitudinal stop in accordance with the workpiece height and the desired width.
• Switch on the saw.
• Place your hands (with fingers closed) flat on the workpiece and push the workpiece along the longitudinal stop and into the saw blade.
• Guide at the side with your left or right hand (depending on the position of the parallel stop) only as far as the front edge of the guard hood.
  • Always push the workpiece through to the end of the splitting wedge.
• The offcut piece remains on the saw table until the saw blade 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.).

Working with circular saw benches

Cutting wide workpieces (Fig. 13)

Width of the workpiece to be cut is more than 120 mm.

Tool: circular saw blade for longitudinal cuts

Process steps: Adjust the longitudinal stop according to the intended width

of the workpiece. Mind the position of your hand. If narrow pieces are cut off, the workpiece is moved forward in the tool area only with the right hand or by using a push stick. If there is a risk that the workpiece might get jammed between circular saw blade, splitting wedge and stop, the stop must be pulled back to the middle of the saw blade or a short additional stop must be used. The upper extraction cover was only indicated in the figures or omitted in individual cases in order to show the process step or equipment more clearly. The upper extraction cover is required for all depicted process steps.

Cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 14)

Be sure to use a push stick (22) when making longitudinal 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.

Tool: circular saw blade for longitudinal cuts

Process steps: Adjust the longitudinal stop according to the intended width of the workpiece. Move the workpiece forward with both hands; use the push stick in the saw blade area and push the workpiece forwards until it is behind the splitting wedge. Use the push stick from the beginning for very short workpieces.

Cutting extremely narrow workpieces. Be sure to use a push block when making longitudinal cuts in very narrow workpieces with a width of 30 mm and less.

The low guide face of the longitudinal stop is best used in this case.

Replace the push block without delay when it becomes worn.

There is no push block supplied with the saw! (Available from your specialist dealer) Replace the push block without delay when it becomes worn.

Making bevel cuts (Fig. 15)

Bevel cuts must always be used using the longitudinal stop.

Set the saw blade to the desired angle. (See Fig. 12.1)

Set the longitudinal stop in accordance with the workpiece width and height (see Fig. 10.1 + 10.2)

Carry out the cut in accordance with the workpiece width.

Making cross cuts (Fig. 16)

Slide the cross cutting gauge (1) into one of the grooves in the table and adjust to the required angle. (see Fig. 11)

If you also want to tilt the swa blade, use the groove which prevents your hand and the cross stop from making contact with the blade guard.

Press the workpiece firmly against the cross cutting gauge (1).

Switch on the saw.

Push the cross cutting gauge (1) and the workpiece toward the blade in order to make the cut.

Push the cross cutting gauge (1) 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.

IMPORTANT!!!

Always hold the guided part of the workpiece. Never hold the part which is to be cut off.

Cutting of edges and slats (Fig. 17)

Tool: circular saw blade for fine cuts

Process steps: Mount the longitudinal stop with a low contact area or use an additional stop. Move the workpiece forward with the push stick until the end of the workpiece reaches the splitting wedge. Secure long workpieces against tilting with a bench extension at the end of the cutting process.

Note: Devices that have to be connected with parts of the machine have to be fixed with screws; only auxiliary connections to the machine can be made with screw clamps.

Cross cutting narrow workpieces (Fig. 18)

Tool: cross cutting blade with fine teeth

Process steps: Adjust the rod so that the workpiece cut-offs cannot touch the ascending part of the saw blade. Move the workpieces with cross stops or cross pushers.

Do not use your hands to remove waste from the workpiece.
