5. OPERATION 5.1 Cross cutting Set the desired cutting angle - Section 4.4. and 4.5. Adjust the position of the fence and lock with locking handle J Fig. 19. Set the upper guard U approx. 5 mm above the height of material. Lift and (gently) push the blade if you need to increase the cutting width/length.
Start the motor and feed the material through the blade along the fence Fig. 22. Use push sticks when the distance between fence and saw blade is < 120 mm. The riving knife is always to be used when ripping. Make sure that it is correctly fitted and adjusted see Fig.
6. MAINTENANCE/REPAIR CAUTION! MAKE SURE POWER SUPPLY IS DISCONNECTED WHILE PERFORMING MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS. A minimum of maintenance is required to ensure satisfactory performance and a long service life. • Lubricate moving parts at regular intervals. • Check all screws and nuts regularly for tightness. •...

6.2 Replacing and adjusting riving knife • Pull the plug and lower the blade cover as in Section 6.1. • Loosen the screws and nut Fig. 27 and remove or reposition the riving knife (by replacing riving knife). • The riving knife is mounted using same method in reverse. The thickness of the riving knife should be the nearest thickness but slightly less than the kerf width of the saw blade.
6.5 Repair Routines at repair: * The machine must only be repaired by qualified electricians or authorised service workshops. Testing the brakes: * The brake for the saw blade rotation should be tested regularly. The stop-time must be max. 10 sec. Start/stop the saw 10 times in a row and check the stop- time.
