workpieces with a thickness of 16 mm (5/8 in.), e.g.
panels. Apply the workpiece against the stop plate rail
14 (Fig. 9 - page 4) of the universal stop 15. Press
the red release knob 16 and pull the saw unit forward
with the handwheel 17 and pull rod 18. After
completing the cutting procedure the saw unit runs
back to the home position and is stopped there
automatically.

4.9 Application as circular saw bench

Slitting of larger workpieces is carried out with the
circular saw bench function. For this purpose, position
the sawing unit in the foreseen table position. To do
so, turn the locking button 24 (Fig. 8 - page 4)
clockwise and pull the saw unit that far forward that it
automatically engages in the position provided for
that purpose.
Use the universal stop 15 as parallel stop. You can
thereby use the stop plate rail 14 according to the
workpiece dimensions with the high workpiece
bearing surface or turned by 90° with its low bearing
surface 25.
Return to the push-pull saw function by turning the
locking button 24 counterclockwise. The saw unit
then runs to the end position automatically.

4.10 Cleaning the filter

Slightly open the fillister head screw 44 (Fig. 11 -
page 4). Disengage the filter housing 46 from the
intermediate housing pivot point by moving it forward.
Clean the filter housing. After cleaning, insert the filter
housing in reverse order back into the intermediate
housing 48 at the pivot points 47 (make sure that it
engages into the pivot points on both sides). Fasten
the filter housing by tightening the fillister head screw
44.
Alternatively, the fillister head screw 44 can be
opened until the filter housing can be swivelled
downwards by 90°. Clean the filter housing with a tool
suitable for this purpose. After cleaning, swivel the
filter housing 90° upwards and fasten it by tightening
the fillister head screw 44.

Operation

5.1 Initial operation

Personnel entrusted to work with the machine must
be made aware of the operating instructions, calling
particular attention
instructions".

5.2 Switching on and off


Switching on: Press the green switch button 12
(Fig. 9 – page 4).

Switching off: Press the red switch button 11.
The saw shaft is automatically braked, reducing
the slowing down time to less than 10 s.
For transport you can wind the
connecting cable over the brackets
13 on the right side of the machine
(at the same time transport
handles).

5.3 Light

Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
The power tool is equipped with a light module 49
(Fig. 2 - page 4) in the upper saw guard
The light module is supplied with power for a certain
period of time as soon as the machine is switched on,
and is then ready for operation.
When it is ready for operation, the light module
automatically switches the light on when the machine
is moved or switches it off when the machine is
standing still for longer periods.
For a trouble-free function of the light, the golden
contact surfaces on the riving knife/splitter must be
cleaned if they become dirty. To do this, remove the
riving knife/splitter and clean the contact surfaces of
dust and chips with a cloth.

5.4 Speed selection

In order to achieve perfect cutting quality according to
worked material, the saw blade speed can be
steplessly selected between 2050 – 4300 rpm. Select
the speed with the setting wheel arranged below the
main switch.
