turned on again. The appliance will operate only
when you depress the green on switch.
Dust collection
To keep the work surface clean, the saw bench is
equipped with a connection for dust extraction.
You can connect your vacuum cleaner to this.
Connect the saw to a dust-collecting device
when sawing wood and check regularly if the
hoods/baffles/chutes are not constipated. Bust/
chipmaterials as lead-containing coatings and
some wood types can be harmful to one's health.
Touching or breathing-in the dusts can cause
allergic reactions and/or lead to respiratory
infections to user or bystanders. Certain dusts,
such as oak or beech dust are considered as
carcinogenic, especially in connection with wood
treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative).
Sawing
Fig. 5
Take care to keep your hands away from
the saw blade when sawing.
When sawing proceed as follows:
• Loosen the knobs of the rip fence (A) on the
table surface.
• Set the rip fence to the correct distance.
• Re-tighten the knobs of the rip fence securely.
• Set the protective hood (C) to the appropriate
height.
• Switch on the saw bench.
• Feed the workpiece, without imposing
pressure on it, towards the saw blade. Support
the section of the workpiece that has already
passed the saw to ensure that it does not fall.
• When the rear edge of the appliance comes
close to the saw blade, use the push stick (B)
to feed the workpiece further. Use at all times
the push stick for small workpieces.
• Switch off the saw bench when you have
sawed the workpiece.
Mitre guide
Fig. 6
The mitre guide (A) allows you to place the
workpiece on the table at an angle of 45° allowing
diagonal saw cuts to be made. You can for this
purpose secure the mitre guide to the guide (B)
(Fig. 6).

5. MAINTENANCE
During maintenance and cleaning always
remove the mains plug from the socket.
Never use liquids when cleaning
electrical parts of the saw bench.
The machines have been designed to operate over a
long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon
proper machine care and regular cleaning.
Malfunctions

• The ventilation grid of the motor is blocked.
• Clean the ventilation grid
• The motor is defective.
• Please contact the service address on the

It is very difficult to move the workpiece along
the saw blade in a straight line and the saw cut
is uneven.
• The saw blade is warped or blunt.
• Replace the saw blade.
• The rip fence is not properly secured.
• Clean the rip fence and secure it in the correct
way.
