3.1 Tape
measure
The tape measure starts at 30 cm so that it does
not come into contact with the saw blade. There-
fore, make sure that the distance between the tape
measure and the saw blade is correct:
– Set both the horizontal and vertical mitre angles
on the KS 120 to 0°.
– Place a workpiece (11.4) with a length of 450 mm
on the KS 120 lengthways against the saw blade
(11.3).
– Slide the stop fl ag (11.1) up to the workpiece.
Clamp the stop fl ag in this position.
– Unscrew the rotary knob for the measuring tape
clamp (11.5).
– Move the tape measure until the measurement
at the edge (11.2) of the stop flag indicates
450 mm.
– Use the tape measure clamp (11.5) to secure the
tape measure in this position. The tape meas-
ure now indicates the exact distance to the saw
blade. The measurement at the edge (11.2) is the
distance between the stop fl ag and the saw blade.
3.2 Length adjustment

tract the end piece (1.7). The maximum extension
