9. Sawing operations

After each new adjustment it is advisable to
carry out a trial cut in order to check the set
dimensions.
After switching on the saw, wait for the blade to
reach its maximum speed of rotation before
commencing with the cut.
Secure long workpieces against falling off at the
end of the cut (e.g. with a roller stand etc.)
Take extra care when starting the cut!
9.1 Cutting narrow workpieces
(width less than 120 mm) (Fig. 12)
Adjust the parallel stop (7) to the width of
workpiece you require.
Feed in the workpiece with two hands. Always
use the push stick (3) in the area of the saw
blade (4).
(A push stick is supplied with the saw!)
Always push the workpiece through to the end of
the splitter (5).
Caution! With short workpieces, use the push
stick from the beginning.
9.2 Cutting extremely narrow workpieces
(width less than 30 mm) (Fig. 13)
Adjust the parallel stop (7) to the width of
workpiece you require.
Use the push block (d) to press the workpiece
against the stop rail (25) and push the workpiece
with the push stick (3) through to the end of the
splitter (5).
There is no push block supplied with the saw!
