– Remove the saw blade 26.
Mounting the Saw Blade
If required, clean all parts to be mounted prior to assembly.
– Place the new saw blade onto the supporting flange 46 of
the tool spindle 45.
Note: Do not use saw blades that are too small. The clearance
between saw blade and riving knife must not exceed 5 mm
(max.).
f
When mounting the saw blade, pay attention that the
cutting direction of the teeth (arrow direction on the
saw blade) corresponds with the direction of the arrow
on the blade guard!
– Mount the clamping flange 44 and the clamping nut 42.
– Turn the clamping nut 42 with the ring spanner 22
(23 mm) and at the same time, pull the spindle lock lever
43 until it engages.
– Tighten the clamping nut in clockwise direction. (Tighten-
ing torque approx. 15–23 Nm)
– Reinsert the insert plate 24.
– Tilt protection guard 6.x down again.
Operation
f Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains
plug.
Transport and Working Position of the Saw Blade
Transport Position
– Turn the handwheel 18 in anticlockwise direction until the
teeth of the saw blade 26 are positioned below the saw ta-
ble 9.
– Slide the table extension 14 completely inward.
Press tensioning lever 15 downward.
The saw-table extension is now locked.
For additional information on transport, see page 36.
Working Position
– Turn the crank 19 clockwise, until the teeth of the saw
blade 26 are positioned above the workpiece.
Note: Take care that the blade guard is properly positioned.
When sawing, it must always face against the workpiece.
Adjusting the Cutting Angle
To ensure precise cuts, the basic adjustment of the machine
must be checked and adjusted as necessary after intensive
use (see “Checking and Adjusting the Basic Adjustment”,
page 35).
Adjusting Bevel Angles (Saw Blade) (see figure K)
The bevel angle can be set in the range from –2° to 47°.
– Turn locking lever 17 in anticlockwise direction.
Note: By completely loosening the locking knob, the saw
blade tilts approx. to the 30° position by means of gravity
force.
– Push or pull handwheel 18 alongside the connecting link
until the angle indicator 47 indicates the desired bevel an-
gle.
– Hold the handwheel in this position and tighten locking le-
ver 17 again.
For quick and precise setting of the standard 0° and 45°
angles, factory-set stops have been provided for.
Adjusting Mitre Angles (Angle Stop) (see figure L)
The mitre angle can be set in the range from 60° (left side) to
60° (right side).
– Loosen the locking knob 49 in case it is tightened.
– Turn the angle stop until the angle indicator 50 indicates
the requested mitre angle.
– Tighten the locking knob 49 again.
Increasing the Size of the Saw Table
(see figure M)
Long workpieces must be underlaid or supported at their free
end.
– Completely pull tensioning lever 15 of the saw-table exten-
sion upward.
– Pull out the saw-table extension 14 to the desired length.
– Press tensioning lever 15 downward.
The saw-table extension is now locked.
Adjusting the Parallel Guide
The parallel guide 10 can be positioned either left (black
scale) or right (silver scale) from the saw blade.
The mark in the lens 27 indicates the set clearance of the par-
allel guide to the saw blade on the scale 1.
Position the parallel guide on the desired side of the saw
blade (see “Mounting the Parallel Guide”, page 31).
With the Saw Table not Extended
– Loosen clamping handle 35 of parallel guide 10.
Move the parallel guide until the mark in the lens 27 indi-
cates the desired clearance to the saw blade.
When the saw table is not extended, the bottom labelling of
the silver scale applies 1.
– To lock the parallel guide, press clamping handle 35 down
again.
With the Saw Table Extended (see figure N)
– Position the parallel guide on the right side of the saw
blade.
Move the parallel guide until the mark in the lens 27 indi-
cates 26 cm on the bottom scale.
To lock the parallel guide, press clamping handle 35 down
again.
– Completely pull tensioning lever 15 of the saw-table exten-
sion upward.
– Pull saw-table extension 14 outward until clearance indi-
cator 51 indicates the desired clearance to the saw blade
on the top scale.
– Press tensioning lever 15 downward.
The saw-table extension is now locked.
