Application As Parallel Stop; Application As Cross Stop And Mitre Stop - Mafell ERIKA 60 Translation Of The Original Operating Instructions


Push the stop rail against the saw blade after
loosening the lateral wing bolt on the rod holder
13 until it rests against the saw blade.

Retighten the cylinder-head screws.
The angle display is retained on the scale after
readjusting the stop!

5.7 Application as parallel stop

You can fasten the universal stop in different
positions and use it as a parallel stop (see Fig. 2 -
page 3):
- On the right or left front side of the table when
adjusting the stop rail 6 to 0° on the angle scale.
For this purpose, fasten the stop in the dovetail
guide in such a way that the stop rail runs from the
front table edge to behind the riving knife/splitter.
(Machine in circular saw bench function)
Adjust the cut width after unscrewing the lateral
wing bolt on the rod holder 13 by shifting the guide
rod 16. The width can be read off the scale 15 at
the edge of the stop rail that is facing the saw
blade. After adjusting, tighten the wing bolt again.
- Fasten the stop rail additionally at the front edge of
the table by means of the clamping piece. To do
so, insert the square nut on the clamping piece into
the groove of the stop rail. Unscrew the wing nut
on the clamping piece until the wedge engages
behind the dovetail profile of the table top. Tighten
the wing nut. (see Fig. 3 - page 3).
- on the right or left front side of the table when
setting the stop rail 6 to 90°. After releasing the
lateral wing bolt on the rod holder 13 adjust the
limit stop by moving the guide rod 16 such that the
stop rail extends from the front table edge to
behind the riving knife/splitter. (Machine in circular
saw bench function)
Adjust the cut width after unscrewing the wing bolt
11 on the underside of the rod holder 13 by moving
the entire stop in the dovetail guide. The cut width
can be read off the scale 15 at the edge of the stop
rail that is facing the saw blade. After adjusting,
tighten the wing bolt again.
The stop of stop rail 6 can be adjusted in longitudinal
direction. If there is a risk, e.g. when cutting solid
wood longitudinally, of the workpiece jamming
between stop and saw blade, then the stop rail is
moved in such a way that its rear end reaches
approximately up to the centre of the saw blade. To
do so, release the clamping arm 14 (Fig. 2 - page 3)
arranged on the top of the stop and move the stop
rail. After adjusting, tighten the clamping lever again.
The stop rail 6 can be inserted turned by 90°, see Fig.
5 - page 3. This facilitates cutting of narrow
workpieces in particular with an inclined saw blade,
since the then available low bearing surface enables
closer positioning of the parallel stop to the saw
blade. For this purpose, release the clamping lever 14
at the stop. Pull the stop rail 6 completely out of the
bracket. Insert the stop rail turned by 90° in such a
way that the narrow edge points to the saw blade.
Then tighten the clamping lever again. When the stop
rail is in this position, the cut width can also be read
off the scale 15 at the edge facing the saw blade.

5.8 Application as cross stop and mitre stop

Danger
Only carry out adjustments on the
universal stop when the saw blade
is stationary.
The universal stop is best attached to the front left
table side for cross and mitre cuts in pull-push saw
function, see Fig 7 - page 3. For right angled cuts, the
0° mark is indicated on the angle scale 18 in this
position.
For carrying out angular cuts, release the wing bolt 12
(Fig. 7 - page 3) located on the upper side. Tilt the
stop rail 6 according to scale 18 into the required
position. A latching position is available every 15°.
Afterwards, tighten the wing bolt.
The 15° -latching mechanism can be switched off
with the slide bar 44 below the angle scale. For this
purpose press on the part of the slider that protrudes
on one side, whereby the stop must be disengaged.
The stop rail should always reach as close as
possible to the cutting plane in order to achieve better
cutting quality. It is therefore notched at its ends, so
that the upper saw guard can also be moved close
enough when cutting narrow workpieces. To adjust
the stop rail, release the clamping lever 14.
Shifting the guide rod 16 in the rod holder enables
adjusting the stop in such a way that depending on
the respective workpiece dimensions, an optimal
adjustment of the cutting width can be obtained.
