Anleitung BKS 315-230 SPK 7 V5
Take off the saw blade guard (2) (see 7.4).
Take out the table insert (6) (see 7.6).
Place the counterholder (41) on the saw blade
flange.
Using the wrench (40), turn out the screw (42) in
the running direction of the saw blade.
Remove the saw blade (4) from the inner flange
and pull out in an upwards direction.
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 splitter (5) and the saw blade
guard (2) (see 7.4., 7.5.)
Check to make sure that all safety devices are
properly mounted and in good working condition
before you begin working with the saw again.
8.0. Operation
8.1. ON/OFF switch (Fig. 6)
To turn the saw on, press the green button "1".
To turn the machine off again, press the red
button "0".
8.2. Cutting depth (Fig. 13)!
Turn the hand crank (8) to set the blade (4) to
the required cutting depth.
Turn anti-clockwise: larger cutting depth
Turn clockwise: smaller cutting depth
8.3. Parallel stop
8.3.1. Stop height (Fig. 14/15)
The universal stop (7) supplied with the bench-
type circular saw has two different guide faces.
For thick material you must use the stop rail (43)
as shown in Fig. 14, for thin material you must
use the stop rail as shown in Fig.15.
8.3.2. Cutting width (Fig. 14/15)
The parallel stop (7) has to be used when
making longitudinal cuts in wooden workpieces.
The parallel stop (7) should be mounted on the
right-hand side of the saw blade (4).

The parallel stop (7) must be pushed into the
terminal strip (23) from the outside.
Set the parallel stop (7) to the required
dimension and fix it in place with the thumb
screws (21).
8.3.3. Setting the stop length (Fig. 15)
The stop rail (43) 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 thumb screws (44) and push the
stop rail (43) forward until it touches the
imaginary 45° line.
- Re-tighten the thumb screws (44).
8.4. Cross stop (Figure 16)
Slide the universal stop (7) into the guide rail
(46).
Slacken the clamping screw (12).
Turn the universal stop (7) until the arrow points
to the angle required.
Retighten the clamping screw (12).

Important!!

Do not push the stop rail (43) too far toward the
blade.
The distance between the stop rail (43) and the
blade (4) should be approx. 2 cm.
8.5. Setting the angle (Fig. 13)
Loosen the star grip screws (9).
Set the chip box (45) to the left to the desired
angle.
Retighten the star grip screws (9).
9.0. Operation
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!
Before use, the saw must be screwed securely
to the metal angle bracket supplied! To do this,
