3. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Selecting the saw blade
Select a saw blade that meets European standard
EN847. Make sure that it has the proper teeth.
In general you will be able to saw faster and less
precisely with coarse teeth than with fine teeth.
Make sure that the saw blade is sharp at all times
in order to realize an optimum result.
Changing saw blades
Fig. 2
Check before fitting the saw blade that
the mains plug has been removed from
the electrical socket.
Tochangethesawbladeproceedasfollows:
• Loosenthetwoscrews(A)fromthesawdust
collection bin (B).
• Removethesawdustcollectionbin.
• Loosenthenut(C)fromthesawbladewitha
spanner.
• Securethespindlewithasecondspanner.

• Removethesawblade,movingitdiagonally
downwards.
• Checkthattheflange(E)behindthesawblade
is in its correct position before fitting a new
saw blade.
• Fitanewsawbladeandcarryoutthe
foregoingprocedureinreversesequence.
Check when fitting the saw blade that the
arrow on the saw blade is pointing in the
same direction as the arrow on the
sawdust collection bin.
Adjusting the riving knive
Fig. 3
Sawing will reduce the diameter of the saw blade.
The space between saw blade and riving knife
must however remain more or less constant. This
means that you will have to re-adjust the riving
knife from time to time.
To adjust the riving knife you should proceed as
follows:
• Removetheinsetpiece(A)bylooseningthe
screws (B).
• Loosenthescrews(C)oftherivingknife.
• Adjusttherivingknife(D)sothatthe
separation between the upper edge of the
knife and the saw blade is at least 3 mm and at
most 5 mm.
• Re-adjusttherivingknifewheneverthe
separation exceeds 5 mm.
• Re-tightenthescrews(C).
• Refittheinsetpiece(A).
Adjusting angle of saw cut
Fig. 4
It is possible with the saw bench to saw at various
angles, to a maximum of 45°.
Thesaw-cutangleissetasfollows:
• Loosentheknobs(A).Thesearelocated
opposite one another on the sides of the saw
bench.
• Adjustthesawbladetotheanglerequired.The
saw angle is displayed on the protractor (B).
• Tightentheknobs(A)oncemoresecurely.
4. OPERATION
When you depress the red off switch the saw
bench will switch off. Depressing the green on
switch will activate the saw bench. Should the
mains power fail or when the plug is removed from
the electrical socket, the safety switch will switch
the appliance off immediately. The appliance
will not activate automatically when the power is
turned on again. The appliance will operate only
when you depress the green on switch.
Dust collection
To keep the work surface clean, the saw bench is
equippedwithaconnectionfordustextraction.
You can connect your vacuum cleaner to this.
