sides of the blade.
A
Danger!
Start the saw only after the fol-
lowing preparations have been com-
pleted:
the saw is fastened;
the saw table is installed and
aligned;
the V-belt tension checked;
the combination switch/plug is
installed;
the safety devices have been
checked.
Connect the saw to the mains supply
only after all of the above prepara-
tions are completed! Otherwise there
is a risk of an unintentional starting of
the saw, which may cause severe per-
sonal injury.
7.1 Mounting
For a firm stand the saw must be
mounted on a stable supporting surface:
1. Drill four holes in the supporting sur-
face.
2. Put fixing bolts through the base
plate and secure with nuts.
Optimal working height and stability is
provided by the workstand (optional
accessory), which is already prepared
for mounting the saw.

side of the saw table.

blade and place it on the table trun-
nion.
3. Attach the saw table with four each
screws (35) and washers to the
table trunnion.

planes
laterally, in order for the blade to run
dead centre through the table insert;
at right angles to the band saw
blade.

(36) that hold the lower table trun-
nion.
2. Align saw table so that the blade
runs through the centre of the table
insert's slot.
