direction to the stop (approx. 90°).
– Screw the depth stop 23 completely upward
turning in anticlockwise direction.
– Lower the tool arm by the handle 5 to the de-
sired position.

Special Workpieces
When sawing curved or round workpieces,
these must be especially secured against slip-
ping. At the cutting line, no gap may exist be-
tween workpiece, fence and saw table.
