5.6 Adjusting the movable stop rails
(Fig. 1, 10-14)
•
Important. This saw is equipped with movable
stop rails (34) that are screwed to the fixed
stop rail (11).
•
For carrying out angle and miter cuts the mo-
vable stop rails must be adjusted to prevent a
collision with the saw blade.
•
For miter and angle cuts to the left, the left
stop rail must be moved outwards. For angle
cuts to the right, the right stop rail must be
moved outwards. Undo the locking screws on
the movable stop rails and pull the rails back
so far that a collision with the saw blade can
be ruled out. Prior to every cut retighten the
locking screws of the stop rails.
•
For miter cuts and double miter cuts with the
saw head tilted to the right, the right stop rail
must be removed completely. Important! In
this case the maximum permissible workpie-
ce height is reduced (see 4. Technical data).
•
Always fasten the movable stop rails back to
the equipment again after you have comple-
ted your work.
•
The stop rails must always remain together
with the equipment. A removed stop rail will
impair the operational safety of the equip-
ment.

6. Operation

6.1 Cross cut 90° and turntable 0°
(Fig. 1-3, 11)
For cutting widths up to approx. 100 mm it is
possible to fi x the saw's drag function with the
locking screw for drag guide (24) in rear position.
If the cutting width exceeds 100 mm, you must
ensure that the locking screw for drag guide (24)
is slackened and that the machine head (4) can
be moved.
•
Move the machine head (4) to its upper posi-
tion.
•
Use the handle (1) to push back the machine
head (4) and fix it in this position if required
(dependent on the cutting width).
•
Place the piece of wood to be cut at the stop
rail (11) and on the turntable (17).
•
Lock the material with the clamping device
(8) on the fixed saw table (18) to prevent the
material from moving during the cutting ope-
ration.
•
Push down the release lever (3) to release the
machine head (4).

•
Press the ON/OFF switch (2) to start the mo-
tor.
•
With the drag guide (23) fixed in place: Use
the handle (1) to move the machine head (4)
steadily and with light pressure downwards
until the saw blade (7) has completely cut
through the workpiece.
•
With the drag guide (23) not fixed in place:
Pull the machine head (4) all the way to the
front and then use the handle to move it
downwards steadily and with light pressure.
Now push the machine head (4) slowly and
steadily to the very back until the saw blade
(7) has completely cut through the workpiece.
•
When the cutting operation is completed,
move the machine head (4) back to its upper
(home) position and release the ON/OFF but-
ton (2).
Important. The integral resetting springs will
automatically lift the machine head. Do not simply
let go of the handle (1) after cutting, but allow the
machine head (4) to rise slowly, applying slight
counter pressure as it does so.
6.2 Cross cut 90° and turntable 0° - 45°
(Fig. 1-3, 12)
The crosscut saw can be used to make crosscuts
of 0°- 45° to the left and 0° - 45° to the right in re-
lation to the stop rail.
•
Release the turntable (17) by slackening the
locking screw (14).
•
Turn the turntable (17) and scale pointer (15)
to the desired angular setting on the dial (16)
and lock into place with the locking screw
(14). The saw has locking positions at angles
of - 45°, -31.6°, -22.5°, -15°, 0°, 15°, 22.5°,
31.6° and 45°, at which the turntable (17) au-
dibly clicks into position.
•
Retighten the locking screw (14) to secure the
turntable (17) in place.
•
Cut as described under section 6.1.
6.3 Miter cut 0°- 45° and turntable 0°
(Fig. 1-3, 13)
The crosscut saw can be used to make miter cuts
to the left of 0°-45° and to the right of 0°-45° in
relation to the work surface.
•
If required, dismantle the clamping device
(8) or mount on the opposite side of the fixed
saw table (18).
•
Move the machine head (4) to its upper posi-
tion.
•
Fasten the turntable (17) in 0° position.
•
Adjust the miter angle on the machine head
and the stop rail as described under points
