Before the first start-up

To achieve flawless functioning of the machine, please follow the
instructions listed:
Place the saw at a location which meets following conditions:
− outdoor
− secured against slipping
− free of vibrations
− even
− free of tripping hazards
− adequate light
To ensure a safer foothold when working with the saw secure the saw
against rolling away.
Before each use, check
− connection cables for defects (cracks, cuts, etc.)
Do not use any defective cables.
− that the wood insert is in a proper condition
− the saw blade for flawless condition
−
the functioning of the jigging device
Do not use any cracked saw blades or such that have changed their
shape.
Do not use any saw blades made of HSS steel.
Immediately replace a worn or damaged wood insert.
Assume the correct work posture. Stand in front of the operating side
frontally to the saw blade line.

Start-up

Rotational direction of the saw blade
Ensure that the rotational direction of the saw blade is the same as the
rotational direction given on the guard (11) .
Selection of saw blades
Consider when selecting the saw blade, that no edgeless or damaged saw
bands are used and that the diameter of the blade location hole is 30 mm
(note the nameplate on the machine).
Mains connection
Compare the voltage given on the machine model plate e.g. 230 V with the
mains voltage and connect the machine to the relevant and properly earthed
plug.
Use a shockproof plug, mains voltage 230 V with residual current circuit
breaker (FI switch 30 mA).
Main fuse: 16 A inert
On/Off switch
Do not use any device where the switch can not be switched on and off.
Damaged switches must be repaired or replaced immediately by the
customer service.
Characteristic data of noise
Press the green button ( I ) on the switch.
If there is a power cut, the machine switches
off automatically. Push the green ( I ) button
to start the machine again.

Switching off

Press the red button (O) or the red button of the yellow switch
cover. The built-in motor brake will decelerate the saw blade up to
the dead stop within 10 seconds.
The saw must not be used if the brake is defective, i.e. if the time
up to the saw blade's dead stop exceeds 10 seconds.

Working with the saw

Before starting to work consider the following safety advices to keep the
risk of injuries as small as possible.
Saw blade, wood insert, recuperating spring o. k.
Workplace tidied?
You may not start to operate the machine until you have read these
operating instructions, observed all the instructions given and installed
the machine as described!
Before making adjustments to the saw settings (e.g. replacing the saw
blade etc.)
− switch off device
− wait for standstill of the saw blade.
− pull out power plug
Also, note the following important points:
Place yourself outside of the area of danger.
Place the wood piece in the jigging device. Cut through the piece with
uniform pressure.
Never remove loose splinters, chips, or similar by hand.
At any case pay attention to all safety instructions.

Working instructions

1. Secure the saw against rolling away.
2. Place the wood piece in the jigging device.
Wood with a diameter between 30 mm and 180 mm can be cut.
Pull out the support extension (24) to the desired length and
fix it using the machine knob (25).
You will get pieces of equal length if you pull out the length
stop (30) and fix it in the desired position using the machine knob.
3. Hold the handle (26) on the jigging device with both hands and push the
jigging device uniformly towards the saw blade.
movements.
The barbs on the jigging device prevent any turning of the wood
piece during sawing.
Do not force the jigging device against the saw blade, the motor
speed should not drop too far.
4. After cutting, the jigging device is automatically brought back to its home
position by spring force.
In the home position, all of the saw blade (incl. cutting teeth) is
covered by the saw blade cover (10).
If the recuperating spring (20) is broken or worn, the jigging device
will not automatically return to its home position. Replace the
recuperating spring.
Never saw without or with a damaged recuperating spring.
5. Only advance the wood piece after a completed sawing operation.
Conduct in case of accident or failure
1. Press the red button on the ON/OFF switch.
2. Wait until the saw blade has come to a stop.
3. Disconnect the mains plug.
4. Initiate first aid actions in the event of injuries.
