7.2 Align riving knife and
install blade guard.
1. Raise saw blade fully.
2. Loosen removable table section (26)
and remove from table.
3. Loosen screws (27) of the riving
knife bracket.
4. Pull riving knife (28) up against the
stop.
5. Tighten screws (27) of the riving
knife bracket.
6. Loosen hexagon socket head cap
screw (29) (to do so, turn hexagon
socket head cap screw counter-
clockwise!) and adjust riving knife
position: The distance between the
saw blade’s outer edge and the riv-
ing knife needs to be 3 – 8 mm.
Danger!
The riving knife is one of the
safety devices and has to be correctly
installed for a safe operation.
7. Tighten hexagon socket head cap
screw (29) (to do so, turn hexagon
socket head cap screw clockwise!)
8. Fasten removable table section.
9. Install blade guard (31) on riving
knife (30).
7.3 Connection of dust col-
lector
Danger!
Dust of certain timber species
(e.g. oak and ash) can cause cancer
when inhaled: always use a dust col-
lector when working in enclosed
spaces (air speed at the saw’s dust
collection port ≥ 20 m/s).
Caution!
Operation without a dust col-
lector is only possible:
− outdoors;
− for short-term operation (up to
max. 30 minutes);
− with dust respirator.
If no dust collector is used, saw dust
and chips accumulate inside the
machine housing. These remains
have to be removed after 30 minutes
at the latest.
Dust collection ports are located on the
chip case and blade guard.
• Fit the chip ejection tube (32) onto
suction port of saw housing as illus-
trated.
Danger!
By the revolving motion of the
saw blade the saw dust is blown from
the chip ejection tube. Watch where
the jet of saw dust is aimed at.
Caution!
In order for the saw dust to be
effectively led off, the chip ejection
tube supplied has to be installed even
if no dust collector is hooked up.
The chip ejection tube shall not be
blocked by other objects.
7.4 Mains connection
Danger! Electrical Hazard
Operate saw in dry environ-
ment only.
Operate saw only on a power source
matching the following requirements
(see also "Technical Specifications"):
− mains voltage and system fre-
quency conform to the voltage
and frequency shown on the
saw’s name plate;
− fuse protection by a residual cur-
rent operated device (RCD) of
30 mA sensitivity;
− outlets properly installed, earthed
and tested.
Position power supply cable so it
does not interfere with the work and
is not damaged.
Protect power supply cable from heat,
aggressive liquids and sharp edges.
Use only rubber-jacketed extension
cables with sufficient lead cross-sec-
tion (3 x 1.5 mm
2
).
Do not pull on power supply cable to
unplug.
Risk of injury!
This saw may only be operated
by one person at a time. Other per-
sons may stay only at a distance from
the saw for the purpose of feeding or
removing stock.
Before starting work check to see that
the following are in proper working
order:
− power cable and plug;
− ON/OFF switch;
− riving knife;
− blade guard;
− push stick.
Use personal protection gear:
− dust respirator;
− hearing protection;
− safety goggles.
Assume proper operating position:
− at the front of the saw;
− in front of the saw;
− to the left of the line of cut.
− If working with two persons the
second person should stand at a
rear table extension.
If the type of work requires, use the
following:
− table extension (accessory) if
working with two persons or if
otherwise workpieces would fall
off the saw table;
− sliding carriage (accessory);
